A Notable Convention

The annual meeting Of the Congre-
gatlonal church which has just clos
ed the 126th session at Vergennes,
was notable occasion in many re-
spects. The place of meeting was
historical, the entertainment was
generous and bountiful, the weather
was perfect, and the talent repro
scented on the program was excep-
tionally brilliant.
One of the features of the gather
ing was a layman's day, when brief
and Illuminating addresses were CIV
en- by representative men on The
Practicability of the Christian Faith
and Character" 1t was the aim of
the program committee to give the
laymen a chance to answer the ques-
! ton whether the Golden Rule was a
visionary ide Il, an unavoidable
the business world can be run on the
basis of doing to others what we
| would have others do to US. The
speakers were a manufacturer, a
university professor, a newspaper
man, teacher of young women and a
college professor. These laymen,
without any direction as to what was
desired of them, took the platform
and almost universally agreed that
the Golden Rule is solution of the
difficulties that abound in all their
professions and in international. rela-
tons. There was not perfect unimi-
! ty in this regard, but in general the
laymsn agreed that the plan of the
! Master is workable and is not an
"iridescent dream"
The report from the churches
showed that the year just closed had
witnessed additions to the member
ship moro in number than for any
period for the last rs years. How
ever, the actual increase does not
count for as much as appears in the
figures, for the fact that general
overhauling of the books has taken
place in so many churches that more
from the roles of absent and unac-
counted for persons, one single
church having swept off 125 persons
at one blow. Whether such a dras-
tic housekeeping is warranted is a
pretty serious question in these days
of economy of resources. It is pref
ty safe to assume that many of those
who have thus been decapitated care
not dead, but sleeping" Neverthe-
less they have had to pay the penal
ty of Incidence in not reporting
when the roll was called.
Financially, the last year has been
magnifcantly successful, the treas.
urer's report showing that toward
the goal of $4,000, there was rails
ed nearly $4,000, a showing fol-
which there is no reason to be asham-
ed.
The session was enlivened by the
presence of Pres. Howard Briggs, OF
Straight college, of New Orleans
with company of colored singers
whose melodious voices, interspersed
through the session, were much ap-
preciated and called forth frequent
applause. The preaching was of a
very high order and the addresses
-struck a note of optimism noticeable
by all. Orleans County was genet-
ously represented on the. program by
Iclergymen and laymen and received
full measure of official position.

MOUNTAIN LABORED:
BROUGHT OUT MOUSE

Attacks on the budget prepared for
the legislature by the state budget
board, which were made in connection
with the debate on the King tax bill
and led to a long series of meetings
and committee inquiries thereafter, all
resulted in one deduction of $4,000 from
the total of SS1 ,3S7 ,692.51 recommend
ed by the board.
The assembly committee on ways
and means, which has had the budget
appropriations under consideration al
most nightly for a month, finally de-
cided to report to that effect, at its
final meeting on general appropria-
tions Saturday night an dprepared to
take up non-budget requests tonight.
The single deduction of $4,000 was
made in the estimates for the superin-
tendent of state capitol buildings and
grounds, who asked for $4,000 for
new implements. His request was cut
to $4,000, the sum allowed for the
preceding biennium.

PRICES FALL
(By Associated Press)

VISALIA, Calf, April 11.-For the
first time in more than two years, the
California Highway commission is re-
ceiving bids lower than the engineers
estimates on road work, Charles A.
Whitmore, Visalia, members of the
commission, said recently.
The low bids show, Mr.. Whitmore
declared, that prices must be falling
in materials. that contractors are anX-
ious to get to work, and that building
activities must soon return to normal
The highway commission is taking
every advantage of the revival of COM
petitive conditions and is proceeding
with highway construction at a rate
as rapid as its finances will permit, the
commissioner asserted.
In one recent instance San Fran
cisco firm bid $4,000 below the en-
gineer's estimate of $249, ,718 on big
bridge across the Feather River. A
dozen other bids ranged from the es-
innate downward. In the last opening
of bids, contractors offered to do for
less than the estimate on road division
in mador, Sacramento, Humboldt and
Tulare counties.
