DEACON LONGSHORE
IN BAD WITH BAPTISTS

: Deacon dad" Longshore is in
bad. He has been held up on his final
examination, and the Baptist church
has good cause for ssvere discipline.
The outcome is awaited with deep
concern by his friends.
Deacon Longshore is chairman Of
the e;f'soeial committee" of the Bap-
tist. church. AS such, he is supposed
to see:to it that all fellowship" af-
fairs are provided with ample and
appropriate refreshments. The pastor
had announced one Of the Social"
half-hours to: follow Wednesdays
prayermee eting-half-hours which
have: added a hundred fold to the
prayermsetins attendance there. He
duly instructed the Deacon respect
ing rsfresh,ments.
Now, it happened that Wednesday
evening. XaA the time set for the Dea'
cons final finabls s.school" examination. and
his mind was upon the teachers-or,
perhaps, more accurately. one Of
them. he confounded his "date" with
that Of Judge Benet'sl address at
commencement, and gave out the
word that Judge Benet would speak
Wednesday night at the prayermeet-
ing hour. The Deacon's social COM
mittee became "balled-up," and the
call for refreshments was practical
" cancelled. The Deacon was .practic-
ing his part for the examination"
-: When the pastor got back to Able
vile from two-dayX trip late Wed
nesday afternoon, ready to lead a
great prayermeeting company, he
found that a mix-up had occurred.
The Deacon could not be located, and
it was too late to make arrange
ments anew. Nearly $50 persons
were at prayermeeting, and the re-
freshments for the social half-hour
sufficed to serve only about one
third of the number.
The Deacon for the first time in
more than a year missed prayermeet-
ing.
The result of his Examination
is i'm doubt.

TAFT WILL BE CHIEF
JUSTICE; ACCEPTS
iss -, z... HARDING's OFFER

Washington, D. c., May 25.-
President Harding's present inten-
ton is to nominate William H. Taft
to be Chief Justice of the United
States Supreme Court. Unless there
is some change of mind the nomina-
ton will 60 the Senate within the
next few days.
1T became known tonight that Mr..
Harding and Mr.. Taft have been in
communication indirectly and that
Mr. Harding has let it be known to
Mr.. Taft that he would be glad to
nominate him for the high judicial
position. The word has. come back
that Mr.. Taft would be willing to
accept such a nomination.
This apparently disposes of the
extensive speculation Of the last
week, since the death Of Chief Jus
tice White, to the effect that one Of
the present Associate Justices would
be elevated to the place of Chief
Justice and that the vacancy there
by created would be filed from out
side. This talk centred chiefly
around the elevation of Associate
Justice William R. Day to be Chief
Justice and the possible selection of
George Sutherland, former Senator
from Utah, to the place Of Associate
Justice.
Those who speculated with poll
tics in mind thought it possible that
Senator Pomerene of Ohio, Demo-
erat, might be selected to be an As
sociate Justice. This, it was argued,
might continue the political balance
Of the court since Chief Justice
White was a Democrat and at the
Ame time weak en- the Democratic
ticket III Ohio for 1the ) Senatorial
election two years hence, when SEN
ator Pomerene is expected to come
