Washington, Oct. 12.-Ratifcation
of the German peace treaty within
the next few days was forecast to-
night by the leaders of both sides
after canvas of the senate had been
completed. A vote on the treaty had

death of Senator Knox some delay
is expected in the action of the senate

advocates. Fourteen Democratic votes
it was said, would be cast for ratifi-
cation with loss to the Republican
side of only three or four against

DALLAS DISTRICT NOTES.

Rev. r. S. jenkins. P. e.
Yes Sir! 1 am real glad that you
have asked me the question relative
to how the Sacrament should be ad-
ministered by the persons handling
the elements. 1t is a breach of
ecclesiastical decency and Christian
ethics for minister, after breaking
the bread in small pieces to go
around tabing the bith of consecrated
bread in his hannds and handins
piece to each individual from his
fingers; also insisting on presentinf
the glass with consecrated wine I
each communicates lips. At no time
should the communicates be allowed
to double around the chancel nod
keep the gloves on when taking the
sacrament. This subject is too holy
and requires too much, space for a
complete and satisfactory answer
at this time. Therefore. we hope tc
take this subject up again in the
District Conference.

equipping a Hospital to care for Ne
groes of Texas suffering from tuber-
culosis
Up to this time, there has not been
available a single bed in which a
Negro tuberculous patient could be
cared for and the Legislature on be-
ing informed of this condition made
appropriation necessary for providing
such an Institution.
The location of this Hospital has
not been determined upon-it being
left to the State Health Officer and
the Superintendent of the State Tu-

reach this decision.
Those interested in tuberculosis and
