SUMMER SCHOOLS FOR PASTORS
Home Mission Boards of Ten
Denominations Will Pay
Part of Expense

Home mission boards of ton de-
nominations are providing from 81,
O0C 10 $4,000 each to send pastors of
rural churches 10 summer schools,
10 be operated under the joint aus
pieces of the Home Missions Council
and the Inter-church World Move
nient in fourteen centers. The
scholarships, which provide for pay
ment Of transportation Of the rural
pastors TO and from the point at
which the schools are held, in ad-
dition to one-half OF the expense
for meals and lodging for the three
weeks session, may be obtained by
any rural pastor by application TO
his own UNCONVENTIONAL board OF
home missions, according to Ralph
A FELTON,. who has general charge
OF the arrangements for the schools.
Attend Nearest School
1T is expected that the pastors
will attend the nearest school," said
Mr.. FELTON,. IN case any pastor
receiving a scholarship wishes TO
attend any school other than the
one nearest his residence he is free
to do so with the understanding
that the money allowed for trans
pOrtation be calculated at the same
rate as if he attended the nearest
school. Practically every denOmin-
alton that has a home mission board
interested in the building up of the
rural churches has made provision
for the sending of pastors to the
schools. Some of the boards have
made more liberal appropriations
than others for the promotion Of
the schools"
Mr.. FELTON, said that i'm several of
the schools this year provision has
been made for teaching pastors
wives in a number of special courses.
The expenses of the wives will be
paid by the local churches in many
cases. No provision has been made
for the payment of these expenses
from the treasures of the homo
mission boards.
The study Of the pastors includes
courses in the Bible, rural social
organization, recreation, rural soci-
ology, church methods with lectures
on church publicity, evangelism,
Sunday-school and young peoples
work, and other forms of religious
education. Evening lectures viii
combine educational and social ele-
ments. Many Of the problems Of

Washington, May 10. - With the
Republican National Convention just
three weeks off and the Democratic
Convention scheduled TO take place
shortly thereafter, officials of the
National Committees of the two
parties maintaining headquarters
here are giving their attention to
I'ails of the conventions and to
tie machinery for the smooth run
ming of these great enterprises.
There is a temporary chairman
to be named for each convention,
men to be selected to maSe the key
note speeches; innumerable SER
geants- alarms are TO be appointed;
thousands of tickets must be print
ed. and all arrangements must be
made for the great convention halls.
The Republican Convention which
will meet in Chicago, Tuesday, June
s, instead of the customary We'd
nesday, will be composed of 9Si del
egates. The Democratic COnven-
ton at San Francisco, June %, will
consist of 1902 delegates. This
difference arises from the fact that
the Democrats allow two delegates
from each congressional district in
the States with four delegates-at-
large for each State, representative
of the two United states Senators,
and give the territories, insular pos
sessions and the District of Column
bia six delegates.

The criticisms that Admiral Sims
has been bringing against the Ma
val Department of the government
are becoming somewhat interna-
tional in their bearing. A new
piece of evidence has been given
in the form of a communication to
the Admiral by President Wilson in
which he refers TO the British Ma
Wy in rather uncomplimentary
terms, as too slow OF action in sup
pressing the submarine warfare,
and urged Sims 10 adopt more in
dependent and aggressive attitude.

President Wilson during the
week has received the new embas-
sadOr from Belgium. The occasion
was a pleasant one. Gratitude was
expressed to the United States for
IFS aid during the war and the
President referred TO the fact that
the United States had given recog-
milton to Belgium's part in the de-
feat of Germany by raising her Dip
lomatic rank TO that of first class
nation and sending TO her an en-
bassador instead of a minister.
II is said the throne of the former
Emperor of Germany is in New
York and is to be auctioned off to
the highest bidder. Creditors of
the royal family took the first OPP
portunity to make themselves good
for unpaid bills by seizing the
household belongings and furni-
ture of their notable customers.
These articles have passed hands
several times and in this way the
royal throne has drifted over TO
the U. s. Thrones are not much
in demand here except as curiosi-
ties.
