THE CONSIDERATION OF THE BISHOP
Plans for the conservation of the
Rev. Philip Cook to be the fourth
Bishop of delaware have been COM
pleted and the service will take place in
the Church of St. Michael and All
Angels, Baltimore, Md, on Thursday,
Oct. 18th, at II o'clock. The conse-
orators are to be the Rt. Rev. S. D..
Tuttle, D. D., presiding, with Bishop
Murray, of Maryland, and Bishop
Reese, of Georgia. It is probable that
large number of other Bishops will be
present also. The Rt. Rev. Cameron
Mann. d. d., Bishop of Southern
Florida, will be the preacher, and
Bishop Fiske and Bishop Sherwood, of
the Diocese of Springfield, the pre-
senters. The Rev. f. M. Kirkus of
Trinity Church, Wilmington. will be
the Master of Ceremonies. The aG-
mission to the service is by ticket.
Progress ought to be our watchword !!
This year we must strive to quietly and
patiently upbuild the healthy routine of
our church life and habits. Loyalty
alone can do it. Steadfast, constant
loyalty! Won't you help? There are
the parish societies, the Woman's
Auxiliary, and the Parish Guild. Are
you a member and a WORKER? If
not, will you not become interested in
one or more of these agencies to pro-
mote the work of the parish Let US
give strong pull and pull altogether.
In the old seminary days our pro-
fessors taught us that God was infinite
in Holiness, Wisdom and Justice. But
life's experience teaches US that His
Love transends them all. 1t leads Him
to bear with and to forgive the unholy;
to patiently teach the foolish; and to
give wholeness, the zest of growth, the
joy Of blossom, the delight of fruitage,
tar beyond our just desert.

CHINA SPORTING
OUUA BOARDS

America needn't think she has ex-
elusive control of all the modern i'm
provements. China has her ouija
boards, too, or what answer the same
purpose. Miss Jennie G. Walker, a
missionary recently appointed to work
under the Methodist Episcopal church
in Marking, tells about discovering
the Chinese equivalent for the ouija
board while on a recent trip in the
country near that city.
In an ancient temple dwe1lS an old
man with his continuance for telling
the secrets of the subconscious and
the spirit world. The old man has
said that he wants to become a Chris
tan, but such a step would mean the
end of his livelihood. He is not yet
ready to pay that price.
Miss Walker found a family there,
evidently seeking help in some deep
sorrow.
The men surrounded the operator of
the ouija board. Thas was a sort of a
large, square, shallow box, its bottom
old man had a carved wooden bird,
not unlike a raven, although it had a
bill like a duck. By manipulating
this duck bill properly Chinese char
acters were 1Tlysterisusly spelled out

The oldest man went before the
temple shrine, boweB upon praper
mat kowtowed three times, arose, re
turned to the ouija board, took the
paper containing it's message, lighted
some incense and burned the paper.
The other men and the woman all
went through the same procedure.
Then they adjourned into an adjoin-
ing room. Presently they returned,
gave money to the owner of the ouija
board and departed, evidently assured
that their petitions would be answer

TOWING AIRPLANE
is SUGGESTED

Cardiff, Wales. Sept. 27-Low speed
cargo airships for towing other air
craft were suggested by Wing Com
mander T. r. Cave-Browne-Cave in an
address before the Engineering sec
ton of the Conference Of the British
Association for the Advancement of
Science held here.
When no speed greater than 35
miles an hour is required and when
reasonably favorably weather can be
waited for. even small airships can be
used for transport over otherwise i'm
possible country, he stated
1t has been demonstrated that air
ships with a gas capacity ranging
from 10000 to 100000 cubic feet
can transport at slow speed from 0.73
to 4S.1 tons when used a. airships
with crew and machinery, and from
1.3 to So tons when used as dumb
vessels.
Such an airship. service, the Com
ma.nder said. would be of inesdnable
value in civil engineering such as the
construction of railways and in pros
pecting for oil and minerals by trans
porting material 1t would be posi-
bic to land one or two mer or even a
survey party by means of s1ings from
a stSong wire while the airship was
practically stationary.

ARMY AIRPLANE
DEADLY MACHINE

A new airplane, carrying one
pound cannon in addition to bat
terry of machine guns of all sizes, and
protected with an armorplate of 3-S-
inch steel, has been developed by the
Army Air Service. A description of
the machine is published in the cur
rent issue of Automotive Industries.
The new plane is propelled by two
Liberty motors of 400 horsepower
each and can attain a speed of Ito
mile an hour.
The steel armor of the new battle
plane, which is aim lost a flying fort,
covers three quarters of the fuselage
and all of the working parts. The
engines are of the puSher type. The
comfort and safety of the pilots and
passengers are insured by a width of
five feet in the fuselage. The new
plane is known as the G. A. x. model
Underneath the 37mm. or 1-pound
cannon, the G. A K. has two ma
chine guns, which fire automatically.
while the heavier piece is being
trained, and SO protects the gunner.
There are three Lewis guns in front
Of the pilot and three to the rear.
Under the post of the observer three
guns are mounted on a movable plat
form, which permits it to be aimed
in any direction while the plane is
in flight. In all there are fourteen
machines guns on the plane.
weapon, the G. A. x. has a White
head torpedo slung underneath the fu-
selage- 1t has a capacity of zoo
pounds of TINT. The torpedo can be
aimed with a fair amount of accu-
racy, and dropped by releasing con-
troll in the observers compartment.
The Army Air Service is also devel-
oping the Lepere armored triplane.
similarly equipped with a one-pound
cannon and machine guns.

SOCIAL SEASON
RANK FAILURE
IN LONDON TOWN

London, Sept. 27-London's social
season is closing and it is unanimous
ly agreed that it has been a failure
The opinion is generally expressed
that the old era of magnificent enter
tanning during the "town season" has
gone forever. Certainly 1920 has prov
ed a disappointment to those who
make fetish of the social round.
No crowds collected in Hyde park
to see the reigning society beauty
canter down Rotten Row. There was
no reigning beauty to see. Big town
mansions which normally would have
been gay with window boxes, awnings
and red carpets to denote the festiv-
tiles going on within have remained
untenanted with a dismal notice ITO
be let furnished" giving proof of the
Seasons lost lure.
Covent Garden Opera, usually a. So
cial function, was merely a social fig
zle this year.
Florists, restaurant proprietors, tall
ors, dressrnakers and others who are
financially interested in the London
season, ruefully confess that there has
been nothing doing The slump has
also been felt in theatreland.
This state Of affairs is attributed
mainly to high prices Society has
been content to mingle with the
throng. Slogans have changed. From
a custom which amounted to "Stand
aloft anad make a splash" it has now
become Lie low and save the cash ~
Never was there less class distinction
than today. Even the magnificence
of the court of King George shows a
decline. What court receptions there
have been this year have embraced
both plebeians and patricians, and
there was none of the old time gilt and
glamour.
The select circle of proffteers who
awaited with open arms The advent
of the ttrich Americans did much to-
ward keeping London empty. Fine
West End mansions which were to be
let at an exorbitant rental have re-
manned unoccupied because those
rich Americans didn't turn up-or if
they did, friendly members of the
New Poor were quick to put them wise
on the matter of London values.

PREACH REVOLT IN
MEXICAN PALACE

Mexico City, Sept. 2e-vio1ent
harangues in which social revolu
ton was urged upon great throne
were given from the Central balcony
of the Central Palace here TODAY
when agitators managed to enter the
palace during a manifestation. There
were cheers for Russia and for ItaI-
ian metal workers, and demands were
made that supplies and store in
warehouses be turned over to them
through a, medium food dictatorship
The Red and Black communist flag
waved from the balcony during these
discourses but there were no disor-
ders and the authorities did not in
terfere.
Among the suggestions launched
from the Palace balcony were the
dynamiting of the Archbishop's pal
ace, the erection of a guillotine for
all journalists in the Central plaza,
the construction of barracks in
streets and cheers for the communist
revolution in Yucatan.

WOMEN PLANNING
FOR MOSQUITO
DIFFERENTIATION

Lyme, Sept. 27-Thirty women of
this town held a meeting the past
week at the residence of Miss Flor
ence Grtswold and decided that the
statewide movement to eradicate the
mosquito evil should be supported by
every person in the state. They ex-
pressed the belief that it was of more
Importance to the women and the
children than to the men. 1t was
recited at the meeting that fouI.
deaths of children from blood pois-
oning had occurred the past three
months, traced directly to MOSQUITO
biting.
While these cases were all in the
interior of the state the women had
no doubt that the Connecticut salt
marshes, which have been swarmed
with mosquitoes this summer, were
responsible.
Every woman present made volun-
tary contributions to fund that
should be devoted to promote inter
est in the anti-mosquito movement
and for general health and cIeanli-
mess in the community.
A formal vote was passed. endorsing
the effort of the Connecticut Anti
Mosquito Association to induce the
state to act through the Legislature
at the coming session, drain the mos
quito infected lands, and thus de-
stroy the breeding places Of the in
sects-

CONVICTS HELD
WITH HOBBIES
IN INDIA CITY

From news to hand from Lhasa
matters would seem to be moving in a
progressive direction in Tibet. A new
mint is being set up near the Dalai
Lama's palace (called Horoulling),
says the Pail Mall Gazette. Two mint
ing machines have been imported, and
the old methods ofturning quito o1nS by
hand is discarded. A gold coin called
sertank, of the face value of four ru-
PEGS, has been put in circulation; also
a silver dollar called sang, of the face
value of 2-S rupees. has been intro
duced, and a copper coin similar IN
shape to the indian nickel anna bit has
been minted.
Currency notes of dicerent denomi-
nations-5, 10, so and 100 tonka
notes (three tonkas equal to one ru-
pee)-have been printed on strong
paper of Tibetan manufacture and are
greatly appreciated by the traders.
They are printed from wooden blocks.
The border bears designs of flowers,
and the value of the note and the
centre has the impression of the seal
of the Dalai Lama in red.
Post Office innovation.
The post office, according to the
Times of India. is built on the ruins of
an erstwhi1e Chinese temple. At pres
ent it mainly deals with letters and
parcels Other features, such as the
v. P. system and the money order
systenn will be introduced shortly.
Lately a. Tibetan gentleman named
Kipug was trained in Kalimpong in
telegraph signalling. He has now re-
turned after completing his studies,
and is doing up the complicated Tibe-
tan alphabet in Morse code. wood for
telegraph poles has been collected in
many localities between GyantSe and
Lhasa, but there seems to be no wire
for them.
There are now only about 500 half
bred Chinese in Lhasa who work as
BARRIERS, carpenters, bakers, etc. Nc
other Chinese are there now. AL
houses and other buildings that were
| formerly owned by the Chinese have
been RACED to the ground. The people
and the officials are all favorably dis
posed toward the British. The coun-
| try is tranquil and there are no signs
| of Bolshevik penetration.
