PUBLICITY Is NEEDED BY
CHURCHES. SAYS MINISTER

Boston, Aug. 25. Churches
need more publicity.
People no longer attend churches
from a sense of duty they must be
lured away from golf, and they
must pay for sermons as other
goods are paid for.
SO says Rev DR.. Albert C.--Dif-
fenbach, Unitarian minister of Bos-
ton, editor of the Christian Regis
ter, who has started campaign
for improving sermons and making
churches more popular, He thinks
a good hustling advertising agent
in churches would make rich re-
turns.
Ministers should study advertis-
ing methods" he says. With them
it would be a matter Of applica-
tion, for they have trained and
versatile minds"

Plans for a reinforced concrete
bridge were drawn, and on Septem-
Der 90 the contract was let to the
Luten Bridge Company.
1t was desired to make slight
change In the location of the bridge
and to get an additional right OF
way. When Chairman Mackall, OF
the Roads Commission, endeavored
to get this right of way he ran up
against the Susquehanna PoVer
Company which owned oil the prop
erty In that vicinity. Counsel for
the company then Informed him 1t
would be q waste Of the States
money to build a permanent bridge
there. because that entire territory
would be flooded and would be
under water within two years.
1t was explained to Mr.. Mackall
that the company was about ready
to go ahead with it's plans, intended
to build a dam in that immediate
neighborhood and expected to have
the work completed at that point in
two years. That would mean that
work would have to begin In a very
short time. for it would take ap-
proximately two years to build such
a dam as is contemplated,
The proposition was put up to MIR.
Mackall seriously and in apparent
good faith, and he took 1t so serious
ly that the contract, awarded Sep
tembep "a, was rescinded September
80 and the bridge repaired. 1t was
this bridge that was the scene of a
serious accident last Saturday. A
mptorbus containing AZ students of
Fordham University ran off the
bridge and fell 16 feet, injuring a
number Of them seriously and so in
juring the chauffeur that he is not
expected to live.

TO HARNESS THE sUsQUEHANNA
RIVER.

Three Power Dams To Be Construct
ed In Near Future.
The Baltimore Sun of Tuesday
states rumors are being heard in
financial and other circles that the
Susquehanna Power Company is get
ting ready to develop it's property on
the Susquehanna river and that it
soon will begin the construction OF
big dam just above the Conowingo
bridge.
The company owns long stretch
of land on both sides of the susque-
hanna, reaching from short dis
lance above tidewater, at Port De-
post, to the property of the Penn
sylvania Water and Power Company,
in Pennsylvania.
1t has extensive charter rights,
acquired from both Maryland and
Pennsylvania legislatures, the earl
lest of these having been acquired
at the beginning of the last century.
If the development of the project
is undertaken 1t will mean an in
vestment In dams and electrical
generating machinery estimated at
SIS, 100000 to $4,000, 900. Francis
T. Homer, formerly of Baltimore.
but who now has Offices at 40 Wall
street, New York, Is one of the men
most interested in the proposition.
1t is understood he has interested q
number of New York financial instl-
tutions in the project and that d
large part Of the money required for
the first dam and the installation OF
the first generating units will come
from that source.
1t is understood that the company
proposes to build three dams. The
first will be above the Conowingo
bridge and placing it in that locality
will obviate the necessity of remoV-
ing the bridge and building it at a
higher elevation. A dam in this la-
cation would enable the company TO
back water to the edge of the Penn
sylvanla Water and Power Com
pany's property. and would food a
large area of country. Later 1t Is
expected to build another dam fur
Their down the river. and ultimately
a third, a short distance above Port
Deposit.
The first definite information thar
things were stirring in the long DOR
mant power situation came a few
weeks ag8 when the State Roaos
Commission proposed to build con-
crete bridge over Conowinge creek,
q short distance from the bridge
across the river. to replace the
bridge that broke down on Septem-
Der 8, 1919. when truck loaded
with soldiers of the First Division,
on it's way from New York to Wash
: ington to take part in the Pershins
parade, went through it. This
bridge was repaired temnkrarily.

12-Bottle Feeding.
| Feeding a baby ON the bottle is 3
difficult thing to do successfully. If
it is not done properly the baby will
get sick, and may lose its life.
AS baby grows older and gets
heavier, he requires additional food.
Nature provides these changes III
| mothers milk without anyone hav-
ing to worry about it. But when
the baby is fed on bottle, these
| changes must be made every few
weeks. For that reason, feeding
a baby on bottle needs to be under
the supervision of physician.
Babies who are fed on a bottle, too,
are more liable to have indigestion
and diarrhoea, so that the bottle-fed
baby usually needs to be seen fire.
quently by the doctor.
The baby will need to be milk-fed
at least until it is year old SO it
saves time and money to obtain the
proper equipment in, the beginning.
Select good quality granite-ware
for the utensils for preparing baby's
milk, and never use them for any
other purpose. They must be kept
always scrupulously clean and scald-
ed each time before using. The fol-
lowing are essential:
Equipment large pan with in
verified pie pan in the bottom for
pasteurizing, two-quart granite
| saucepan with handle, or pitcher, /
tablespoon, 1 pint measure, bot
ties, cork and nipples for each bot
tie; l wire rack for holding bottles,
1 bottle brush, fruit jar for lime
water or barley water, as ordered by
the physician; jar for malt sugar,
milk sugar or cane sugar, as order
ed by the physician; i box of bak-
ing soda or borax.
Bottles:-Select bottles with

There should be as many bottles as

bottle should be cleansed immediate

water, then by soaking in suds,
borax or soap water. Bottles should
be scrubbed with a clean brush in
warm water soap suds and rinsed
with boiling water. (Then they
should be filed with boiled water
until ready for use.) The corks
should be scalded each day and kept
in a tightly covered receptacle.
Nipples:-Use only non-collapsi-
Bile nipples that can be slipped over
the neck of the bottle. After each
feeding, cleanse the nipple inside
and outside, scrub it with a brush
in warm soapy water. Wrap the
nipples in a clean cloth and boil
them once day. Drop them into a
scalded jelly glass and put the lid
on tight. Never touch with your
fingers that part of the nipple which
must go into the baby's mouth. The
hole in the nipple should be only
large enough to allow the drops to
fall about one and one-half inches
apart when the bottle is inverted.

Ever hear of 9, Wesleyan football team defeating a Harvard eleven? The score was 16 to o and the surprise was posted into football history back in 1884, the game being staged in Hartford. The story is told by Frank F. Dole, Yale track coach in those days
 At that time Wesleyan had 200 stu dents, all of whom we6a supposed, at least by the general public, to .lG studying for the ministry
 I'll never forget the first impress sion of their football team,' said Dole They appeared frightfully ragged lot Later charges were made that encouraged them to play rough foot ball, but if it was rough it certainly wasn't dirty"
 "In those days football players were not as adept in handling the ball as they are now. The player who could catch the ball c1eanly seemed more the exception than the rule. But there were a lot of good players on the Wesleyan eleven. Jim Sake was the fullback, and how he could kickt Then there were a couple of speedy ends who were wonders in getting down under the ball. There was also g. crackerjack tackle in Andrew Suth- erland, now a Justice of the Supreme Court in western New York.
 With Sutherland to bolster the de- fense and Saxe's kicking, com mbined with the speed of the ends on offense, there was fine material with which to work. Wesleyan beat all her small opponents and managed to make . fairly decent showing against Yale.

Football Upset Of '8A
By Old Sport

Finally a game was arranged with Harvard to be played in Hartford on October A.
 At that time Harvard had 5000 men from which to draw a team. The Harvard crowd expected a Walkover. Yale had beaten Wesleyan by a fair score and the Crimson saw no reason why it couldn't duplicate the feat. But between the ' e and Harvard games my team had gone forward a lot. The Ministers had developed 9 lot of nerve.
 They went up against the Harvard crowd with something of the same spirit credited to Centre in the recent their heads off every minute of the gal N- They went in intending to play their heads off every minute of the way, and did it. It was in the days of the old line bucking game. but their style of capitalizing the kicking ability of Sake and the speed of the ends was analogous to the open style of play today against a heavier team They ware a stone wall against liar wards drives on the defence.
 Naturally, Middletown went wild The little town turned out in a body when the team reached the station. We were piled into one of those old fashioned rigs known as a barge.

OLD TIMERS REGRET CHANGING NAME OF
 CROWFO0T

Edmonton, Alta, Dec. Old timers in the Canadian West regret the recent change of the name of a small town in Alberta from Crowfoot Crossing to Gleichen. The original name was tribute to one of the great Indian leaders of the West, CrowfoOt chief of the Blackfeet and head of the powerful confederacy of Blackfeet BlOOdS, PieSans, Sarcees and other allied tribes. His jurisdiction extended over 10, 00O warriors. He was the white mans steadfast friend in criti- cal years.
 He held at one time the fate of the West in his hands. That was in 1885. Louis Riel, leader of the half-breeds and Indians in the Riel rebellion. had sent his runners through the Indian villages to stir up war against the whites. Many of the tribes were ready to strike. It remained for Crowfoot to say the word and the West would have been deluged with blood and the scattered settlements wiped off the map.
 The United States was a great na- ton in 1885 but Western Canada was little better than a wilderness. The Hudson's Bay Company has surren- dered to Canada it's old empire. The Canadian Pacific Railway had not yet reached the Pacific Coast, but settlers wore beginning to swarm in along it's unfinished line. The marvellous trans formation of the prairies into one of the greatest farming regions in the world has taken place within the last forty years.
 The time was psychologicaIly ripe for an Indian uprising. If the red men had torn up the new railway and made determined stand, the develop ment of the West would have been held back a half century. Crowfoot gave Riefs emiSsarieS a respectful audience but refused to join tho re- belIion His decision saved the West a long and h1OO6N
