QUEEN MARY FINDS
RARE GAINSBOROUGH
''Portra ait Of Lady" Discovered While
Cleaning Palace, Will Be
Offered For Sale.

LONDON, April IA rare Gains
borough has been discovered in Buck
ingham Palace as a result OF Queen
Mary's housecleaning.
The discovery was made when the
Queen had three paintings sent from
the royal library to be cleaned. One
of the pictures was Virginia Waters,
by an unknown artist, purchased for
Windsor Castle by Queen Victoria.
Beneath the picture was found an
other which experts pronounce to be
portrait of a Lady" by Gainsbor-
ough. 1t will be offered for sale soon.
Queen Mary is personally directing
the housecleaning at Buckingham
Palace and Windsor Castle. She
hopes to unearth forgotten treasures.
Especially the cleaning Of Windsor
will be a gigantic undertaking. and
will probably last year because OF
the size of the castle and the re-
moteness of the apartments which
have been closed for generations.

Passengers will enter by the rear

BY means OF inter-communicatin

to a minimum the possibility OF pre-
mature starting. The trail car is
furnished with lights by a cable con-

'I felt there would be q more resu-

Church will lift it's ban on amuse-
ments and simply advise against them
is declared by the Rev. Edmund NJ

OF the General Conference, which
opens at Des Moines. Iowa, on Satur-
day. DIR. Mills will offer an amend
ment to the Book OF Discipline TO
that effect.
About one-thIrd OF the ministers
want TO eliminate all reference to
theaters, dancing and card playing.
according TO memorials received by
DIR. Mills. The majority OF tho others
evince uncert rtainty as to proper
action. Another factor In DR.. Mills
determination to propose the change
In the church laws Is that ministers
do not put members OF their congre-
cations on trial for these smuse-
ments.
The provision Of the Book OF Disei-
piine which DIR. Mills will move to
eliminate reads:
Dancing, playing games of chance,
attending theaters. horse races, cir
cuses, dancing parties patronizfng
dancing schools or taking part In
such other amusements as are OBJ
viousiy OF misleading and question

Reproof by the pastor 10 decreed
for a first offense; reproof by the
pastor and class leader, or discreet
members OF the church for = second.
and a church trial for a third.
After striking out this provision
DIR. Mills would have an asterisk in
