AN INSPIRING MEETING

The meeting at the First Christian
church last night was an inspiration.
There was large audience which
almost completely filled the main
auditorium and Sunday school room.
The music was full of enthusiasm
and spirit. Mr.. Jomp with the reg
ular choir assisted by a junior choir
led the music. Mr.. Jomp rendered
a solo just before the sermon which
delighted the congregation.
The Atlantic Christian College stu
dents came in body and added
much to the spirit of the worship
DR.. Nooe, the evangelist. delivered
one of the most powerful sermons
ever delivered in this church on the
great question, What is your life?'
In a most direct manner he asked
each to weigh and measure himself
as to how much he weighed, stripped
of the trapping of conventionality
and assumption. How much do you
weigh in Gods scales? Your char
acter and not reputation must de-
termined Life is only worth while
as it measures up to Gods high stand
ard Life and destiny is determined d
by what we are at heart.
The sermon will long be remem-
bered for its heart-searching appeal
to service.
Tonight Mr. Nooe will deliver the
message he gave the boys on the
morn under the shadow of that aw-
full death in France. Mr.. Nooe was
with boys over there and did his full
duty. All soldiers of that conflict
are invited tonight.
Plans are being made to make
Sunday the greatest day of the
meeting. Those who attend will be
helped.
The meeting will continue through
next week at 1880 p. m. The after

WHICH SOON MAY

If the American Proposals are
Carried Out the West Vir-
ginia Launched Today and
One of the Proudest Ships of
the Navy Will Be Strapped
in Few Months.

Newport News, Va, Nov 19-The
super dreadnought West Virginia the
newest addition to the navy and sche-
duled to a grave in the scrap pile in a
few months under the disarmament
program, was successfully launched
at the plant of the Newport News ship
building company. Miss Alice Mann
of Bramm, w. Va, christened the
ship as it glided down the ways. Miss
Mann had as her maid of honor Miss
Addison Williams and Miss Mary
Thorn Helen.
Launched as one of the proudest
and greatest battleships ever designed
by the American navy only to- be
scrapped in a few months appeared to
be the fate of the dreadnought when
she slipped from the ways of the
Newport News shipbuilding and dry
dock company
The Amreica'S naval plan as pre-
sumed provides for the scrapping of
the West Virginia. If the plan is
agreed to, the dreadnaught, about SIS
per cent of which is finished will nev-
er be finished and will never play the
seas bearing the stars and stripes.
She is of same class and power as
the Maryland.

CHINA PRIVILEGES
CONFERENCE URGES

Great Britain Officially De-

Abandon Her Spheres of In

torial Privileges; Japan May
Ask for Conditions.

Washington, Nov. 19.-Great Brit
ain is officially on record as willing
to abandon her spheres of influence
and exclusive territorial privileges in
China
Attention was directed by the Brit
ish spokesmen to statement made
in the House of Commons the other
day by under secretary Harmsworth
of the foreign Office as follows:
THE policy of spheres of influence
in China has been superseded by one
of international cooperation and fur
ther development of this will proba-
bly, be urged.
This formal statement is regarded
by the British delegates of utmost
Importance in it's bearings on the pro-
ceedings of the conference supple
menting as it does the expressions OF
Premier BRAND that France is ready
to give up exclusive territorial pow
ers in China
Great Britains' is well known and
Japan's one of a general principle of
abandonment though with conditions
that may impose some difficulty.
Therefore the probability of accept
ance of this Chinese appeal is regard.

ment on behalf of Japan on several

The ten proposals submitted
Thursday by the Chinese delega-
tion was expected to form the basis
for discussion at today's meetings,
and all delegation heads were un-
'derstood to have expressed agree
tment with the Chinese views.
Washington, Nov. 19.-The precise
attitude of Japan is becoming more
and more the big Interrogation point
of the arms conference. When the
delegates of the nine nations assem-
bled again today to talk about the
far east it was to Japan they looked
for hint to reveal just what trend is
to be taken in the matters as they
affect China
In the same way and perhaps with
interest more intense the naval ex-
perts of the powers were pOndering g
Japan's request for an increase in
her proportion of navy strength and
were wondering if she would raise an
issue with the U. S. by proposing g
changes in ratios fixed by the Ameri-
can plan.
Interchanges with Toxic during
the two days recess of the committee
sessions were said to have provided
the Japanese delegations with COM
prehensive information as to the atti-
tude of their government, but there
was no authoritative prediction as to
how far that attitude would be re-
vealed at the present stage of the
far eastern negotiations. Some of the
members of the Japanese delegations
