BAPTIST MEETING
SPIRIT OF
BRIGHT OPTIMISM
ADJOURNED LAST NIGHT
Selection of Next Meeting
Place is Left to the Execu-
!. tive Committee. Officers
Elected for Coming Year.
Representation to be Great
ly Reduced.

Rocky Mount, April 1.-The Wom-
ans Missionary union convention,
which has been in session in the First
Baptist church of this city since
Tuesday night, adjourned last night
without a meeting place for the next
session a year hence. The matter of
selecting a place was left to the
executive committee.
The convention has grown so large
and the housekeepers' problems have
grown so acute that no town or city
dared to invite it. The constitution
was changed so that in the future
the representation will be greatly
reduced. Only one delegate from each
society will be allowed.
The fastest registration shows 53
delegates and 72 visitors at this ses-
sion, but scores of visitors failed to
register. While the homes of Rocky
Mount have been taxed to take care
of so many, yet their hospitality has
been unbounded. This has been a
great convention in every way. The
ladies have mapped out a great pro-
gram for the future. A spirit of op-
timism and of progress was voiced
throughout the entire proceedings.
The convention went on record as
being opposed to this country's send
ing a representative to the Vatican OF
Rome, and President Harding will be
advised of their action. 1t also reg
istered it's protest against moving
the general headquarters of the un-
ion from Baltimore to some more
central city.
The following officers were elected
to serve during the coming year
President, Mrs. Wesley N. Jones
Raleigh; vice-presidentsu Mesdame.
Weston Bruner, Raleigh; w. H
Woodall, Asheville; corresponding
secretary and mission study superin
tendent, Mrs. w. H. Reddish; Office

When the beer regulations are pro-

ing the regime of former Prohibition
Commissioner Kramer.
Beer with a kick" is to be made
available under conditions as free as

Physicians are TO be left -unfetter-

Among higher officials the belief OBJ
tsins that doctors will not be limited
either in the number OF prescriptions
they may issue to patients, or the
amounts that they may in their
judgement deem wise fo- the relief of
some known ailment.
The strong probability today was
that the regulations in their nnal
form will leave TO doctors much
wider latitude in administering me-
dicinal beer. than obtains in pre-
scribing whiskey or other spirituous
liquors.
