Bleaching Web of Cotton in Vermont.

That tint so heavenly fair.

CHURCH ADVERTISING.
Pastor Claims 1t Has Filled the Church
and Collection Plate.

Publicity has changed the automobile
from an enemy to friend of the church.
according to Rev. Oliver Kene. pastor of
the Methodist Episcopal church here.
when the people of the whole com
munity know of n church and the kind of
sermons preached. the car will carry
them to it instead of away from it, he
said. by advertising in local papers ]
have quadrupled the membership of my
church in four years Christ said. Go out
and compel them to come in What is
more compelling than advertising in the
modern way?
II often inserted a quarter page or
half page ad in the home town papers
The expense of advertising is met by the
collection box, and the more people the
advertising draws to church, of course
the larger the collections. So the ads pay
for themselves in actual money. The good
that IS accomplished cannot be measured
in dollars and cents.
Advertising must be backed by a
good, sound, honest, gospel message from
the pulpit. Nothing can take the place
Of the gospel; not movies, nor music, nor
half-baked addresses on current topics
And the man who goes once is pretty apt
to return and bring someone with him"

The guest picked up the menu. stud

The waiter turned to Smith
What will you have, sir?'
Smith despairingly replied: Gimme
tea and toast"
From across the table came the mildly
surprised query Of his friend: What's
the matter. Smith. on diet?''
NO. On commission. Judge.

ROSWELL HIGH BEATS
CLOVIS; ENDS SEASON
WITHOUT A DEFEAT

Clovis, n. NJ. Dec. Roswell
high school closed its third season
without defeat here yesterday when
the valley team took the Thanks
giving game from Clovis high
school by q score Of 33 to Q. Out
weighed and outclassed, the Clovis
team fought yaliantly to stem the
Roswell onslaught. which started
after the first ten minutes OF play
when McFife. Roswell quarter.
circled the right end and lodged
through three men for the first
touchdown.
McFife was virtually the Ros-
well team, this fast quarter maxi
ing all but one of the touchdowns,
one of believed TO have been the
longest runs made in the state this
season. McFifo received the ball
from his center while he stood
three yards behind his own goal
line and, circllng right end, sprint
ed 105 yards for touchdown.
Sasser, Clovis, left end. and
Jones, captain, playc star football
but they could not stem the tide OF
victory flooding toward the heavy
valley team. Only once during the
contest was Roswell's goal in dam
ger and that came when Jones
passed thirty yards to Rogers and
a subsequent end run placed the
ball on Roswel's threeAyards line.
Roswell held for downs ana ii was
at this point that McFife made his
l03-yard sprint for the final score
Of the game.

Secretary of Commerce De-
CIared Communism Has
Failed: Says America
Turned the Tide

San Francisco, Dec. Russia
today is fast on the road to recov-
cry, Secretary Of Commerce Her.
bert Hoover today told the San
Francisco Senter, a womans or
ganization.
Communism has failed and its
leaders know it," he declared.
There is indeed a hope that we
will see a, new Russia, revived in
spirit, and based ON q new econo-
mic system.
Russia now has a spirit of hope
that could come from no quarter
but America he added, after re-
viewing tho accomplishment in
that country of American relief
activities. LIST summer Russia
received its most staggering blow
when drought all but wiped out
its crops and production dwindled
at an alarming rate. 1t was then
that communist leaders realized
the total failure of communism"
Secretary Hoover described how
America developed resources of
$65, 100000 to assist Russia and
established more than 200 stations
to distribute food to millions of
needy Russians.
I'VE gave what two battleships
would cost" he pointed out, "and
We have laid the foundation of a
friendship that will be more use
iul than any number of battleships.
America has attained a name in
Russia that will endure"
The secretary said that Ameri-
cas- problems are not in the di-
rection of production. "Our trou-
ble," he said, lies mainly in pro-
viding system properly to care
for division and distribution. How
ever, we can solve this problem
within our own social system. The
totality of production is the stand
ard of our living. BY better living
service in our communities we can
improve the sharing of that pro-
duction. There never was an out
pouring of service in history as
great as America displayed during

OBJECT
To METHODS Of
HOTEL BUILDING
Ask to Be Relieved of
Pledges Made for Con-
StruCtion Funds; Say
Scheme MiSrepreSented

#. +, Mabry, local attorney, has
been engaged by the building
trades council of Albuquerque as
attorney to defend union men in
connection with suits for pledges
on the construction of new hotel.
The defense fight is to be made on
the grounds of Misrepresentation
According to Mr.. Mabry, there
are perhaps $50 individuals who
have u defense to offer IL sued on
their contracts for subscriptions
and that the amount of these sub
scriptions will total more than
100000. He said that between ~
and ID suits have already been
filed.
Mr.. Mabry added that he, how
ever, is not interested in all these
cases. His interest is confined to
the defense of suits against mem
bers of the organized building
trades members whom, he says,
had been induced to sign up for
contributions under the belief ana
upon the promise of the selling
agencies that the job would be
performed by union labor, would
go to home people and that home
men, and especially subscribers.
would be given preference.
The trades union council holds
no stock but it is declared several
of the unions hold stock in vary
ing amounts. According to this
report the Carpenters union has
given a note for $1,000. the paint
ers' union for $500 and the brick
layers union a note for $500. 1t Is
alleged that "void IL not built by
union labor" IS written across the
face Of these notes.
This is not shown on the face Of
the individual notes issued, accord
ing to general reports regarding
them. However, many of the
members Of the unions claim they
signed the notes under the condi-
tions described by Mr., Mabry.

EI PaSo Writer Says Aggies
Won on Straight Football
and LOho Line Was Be-
hind Expectations


El Paso, Tex, Dec. LIN slow
" executed, but thrillingly played
game Of football the New Mexico
Aggles regained the championship
of the state of New Mexico from
the University of New Mexico by
n, NJ, Thursday afternoon.
The teams were quite evenly bal
anced, but played entirely differ
ent styles of football. The game
was scrappy throughout. The Ag-
gies made their seven points in the
third quarter. The Aggies, at
times, showed brilliant flashes of
football. At other times the game
was ragged.
For the Bergman eleven their
best playing was demonstrated
when they were backed up against
the wall and fighting to prevent.
the Lobos putting over u score, In
the last quarter university got
within three yards of the AggieI
goal posts, with four downs to go.
The Aggies, fighting with all they
had, held the Lobos and prevented
the game ending in a tie.
The Aggies held the Lobos with
in five yards of their goal posts on
two other instances. The Lobos
seemed to lack the pep and zipI
that was expected of them, and
their line showed a type of foot
bali that was less than secondary.
According to the dope, the Aggies
should not have made a yard
through the Lobo line, but the Ag-
gies' stars-McGary and Jones'
charged through for 10 and IL yard
gains on a number Of occasions
during the game. The Aggies tried !
only one end run and three for
ward passes. This complete change
from open tactics to straight foot |
ball seemed TO work against New
Mexico university.
The interesting feature Of the
game was in the two Jones broth |
ers playing against each other, and
proved to be a great thrill maker. !
The boys played stellar roles fori
their respective teams and fought |
against each other as hard as pos
sible.
sewall Jones of the Aggies
shared honors with McGary, the
Aggie veteran, for the greatest
playing on the field. This pair of
halfbacks proved the entire back
field of the Farmers so far
as offense was concerned. Cap
tain Fairly was out OF the Aggie
lineup and the brunt of the Aggie
drive was taken over by McGaryI
aud Jones. McGary, playing his
last game of football with the Ag-
gies, played one of his greatest
games. He acted as captain and
was steam roller on the often
sive. On the defense he was a del
mon. Sewall Jones, the other Ag-
gle star, frequently got TO the Lo-
hos for good gains. His tackles
were sure and hard. His spirit
was great in encouraging his
.eam-mates. Jones' punts were not
lp to the usual Jones standard,
n that he averaged only 3j yards,
while, for the season his average
vas close to so. II
