international Society May Have Its
Stsrt in Lubbock

Considerable agitation is under
way 10 organize cooperative as
ISOLATION purely for defensive pur-
poses to be known as the lnterna-
tional Association of Golf Widows
The organization Is considering the
possibility Of a Legislative Bureau,
Detective Bureau and a Finger
Print Bureau for the Identification
Of long lost husbands.
a Medical Research Bureau will
no doubt be developed in time TO
find some means Of keeping the
victims Of Golfitis from talking in
their sleep. II is rumored that the
language is oftimes other than that
used in polite society and might
prove Of great danger to the minds
of growing children.
Numbers Of Lubbock husbands
are already seriously afflicted with
this dread disease, symptoms Of
which are more noticeable upon
warm afternoons, frequently result
ing in high fever on Sunny Sundays
that causes the patient TO wander
great distances madly striking at
small balls. always in company with
other addicts. Future announce
ments will be made in this paper.

Training of Former Service Men Plans May Undergo Change

WASHINGTON. June 1S.-Appoint- ment of Q central committee and of local committees in each of the IA veterans district bureaus to cooperate in the rehabilitation training of for mer service men is under considera- tion and the plan has been submitted to President Harding for approval Di- rector Forbes announced today.
 The director explained that. it was proposed to appoint a central commit tee of eight prominent citizens to CO., ordinate the activities of the 1f local committees of five each. The commit tees would be composed of former service men who would serve without pay.
 All forms of government vocational training for disabled service men will be closed by the end of 1928 unless new legislation is enacted by congress before that time. Forbes said.
 A plan of cooperation in the place ment of rehabilitated disabled ex-ser- vice men in industries for which they are especially fitted was agreed upon today between the labor department and the veterans bureau. Facilities of fuorteen district offices of the United States employment service were placed at the disposal of Colonel Forbes by direction of Secretary Da- wis.

Declares Darwinism Leads to Denial of God; Teaching of

INDIANAPOLIS, June 13.-Attacks on the alleged teaching of heresy by Henry Clay Vedder of the Crosser Theological Seminary, Philadelphia, were made at the meeting of the Fun damentalist group of the Northern Bap tist Church today by Dr. Frank Good child of Brooklyn, N. Y.
 An immunity bath from sin," sentence which Dr. Vedder is charged with having often spoken and written, was the basis of the attack by Dr. Goodchild.
 Bringing of the charge of teaching heresy at the seminary before the con ventiOn tomorrow, it was said at the meeting, would be attempted.

 'Darwinism leads to a denial of God. The law of principle so carefully worked out by Darwin is being given i less and less weight with scientists. The followers of Darwin are trying to retain evolution while rejecting argu- ments that led Darwin to accept it as i an explanation of the varied life on the planet.

HEAR GOVERNOR
 AT OPE EWING OF
 SHRINE COUNCIL
Growth of Organization Described by Imperial
 Potentate at Session

SAN FRANCISCO, June 13.-The imperial council of the Ancient Arabic Order, Nobles of the Mystic Shrine. was welcomed to California and San Francisco today by Governor Stephens and Mayor Rolph,A both members of the Shrine. Their ad- dresses took place at the opening os the imperial council session in Scot tish Rite Auditorium.
 The growth of the organization form 57,000 members when it met in San Francisco 20 years ago, to an enrolment of more than 500,000 at the present time, was described by Ernest Allen Cutts of Savannah. Ga., imperial potentate of the order, in his opening speech.
 The Shrine always has stood for an open Bible, and open church. and an open school" he said" If we had not been God-fearing body of men, could we have thus prospered?"
 The imperial potentates statement brought the entire assemblage to its feet, cheering.
 Samuel E. Burke, grand master of the Masonic Order in California, wei comed the imperial council on behalf of the Blue Lodges of California lie said the history of Masonry in Cali fornia dated back to the. days of '49.
 Governor Stephens spoke as a past potentate of Al Malaikah Temple of Los Angeles, and an honorary mem Der of Islam Temple of San Fran CISCO.
 We count this a great day in Cal ifornia," he said, for we have as sembled here in this city by the Golden Gate a vast number of the Ancient Arabic nobility who are also numbered with the men foremost in every part of the union
 He told the visitors they would find hospitality in every part of the state. and urged the council to give earnest consideration to Sacramento's s plea for establishing a temple.
 After the addresses of welcome, the council went into closed sessions, which will last until adjournment Thursday. The business it will tran sact will include the choosing of imperial officers for the coming year, the admission of new temples, and the selection of the next meeting place.

Meanwhile, subsequent proposals for the amended house bonus bill are being put forward. The latest was offered today by Senator McCumber's colleague, Senator Ladd, Republican, North Dakota.
 It would provide for a cash bonus to the soldiers to be paid by the is- sue of $2,500, 100000 or less of legal tender treasury notes to be retired over a period of 25 years cut of pro- ceeds from special taxes cn banks and interest received from foreign indebtedness.
 Senator Ladd's plan contemplates tax on all banking institutions hav- ing a capital stock of $100,000 or more equal to 30 percent of the prof. it's in excess of F percen-, and all other taxes. Should these taxes and the interest on the foreign debt be insufficient to pay the annual refund ing installmentsf Oil the legal tender issued to the veterans, the deficiency would be made up out UG the federal treasury.
 Explaining his statement, Senator Ladd said in formal statement that few would contend that in the light of present economic conditions banks should make a. profit greater than 12 per cent. He argued that this plan would cause no imitation of credits, and contended that in this manner the soldiers could be paid at little expense to the government. Char acterizing the certificate. plan of the McCumber abillzas lsttle more than q bread bill" for the veterans, Senator Ladd said they had asked for meat and have been given stone"
