. Many inquiries have come to me
regarding my resignation as pastor
of the NJ. f. Church of this place.
In answer to these inquiries desire
to say that did resign with the
feeling that for many reasons it
might be for the good of the cause
if were not to return as pastor for
the coming year. However, The Of
fetal Board at their last regular
meeting voted not to accept the
resignation of the pastor. In con-
currence with their action l have
agreed to return for another year and
shall be happy to give of my best

THE PARABLE OF THE PLAIN
MAN AND THE TWO
CHILDREN

Now after that I had dwelt in the
city for few years, and my days were
getting somewhat in the "sere and
yellow leaf" looked upon my chill
dren and beheld goodly son and
comely daughter. And ] said,
yea, I will send my son to a schoo
and to an university that he may get
understanding and become a useful
man, and so win distinction in the
land Of his BIRTH
And he went. And | said, II will
send also my daughter to school that
she may be trained in modesty and
usefulness and wisdom" And she
went.
And after that had spent much
money and paid a multitude of bills,
and my son and daughter had been
away for four years, they wrote me
word of their return. And sent
them money, and said unto my help
meet, "Yea, Our children will be here
tomorrow. And they will be staff
unto us, and a comfort in our old age.
They have sat at the feet of the wise
and the worthy They have gained all
the knowledge and wisdom and grace
of the schools. They will be an hon.
or unto us and the envy of our friends
and acquaintance" And she said,
at is even So"
And she swept and garnished her
house, and made ice cream and baked
pie, and sod pottage, and slew a
chicken. And she said, "All things
are ready
And on the morrow my son and
daughter arrived, and our hearts
we're lifted up. And we saw them
afar off. And my son came smoking
cigarette with a long handle apper-
tanning thereunto, and small mus
tache safe upon his lip. And his raj
ment was long and slender. And he
spake as one coming up from Afri "a,
even as an Ethiopian. And my
q; lighters raiment was unspeakable,
and she spake as one of the Pilgrin.
Fathers who is si,f and her expires
sions were those of factory girl
from Hamilton.
And j marveled greatly that my
son had associated himself so much
with colored people, and had dwelt
with them until their speech was his
speech. And marveled also that my
daughter should speak as those who
60 about confessing that their an
cestors escaped to America in the
Mayfower.
But after little season l ceased
to marvel, and / said, "Yea, they are
both fools, but doubtless they are
right to prefer these silly Alterations
to their natural manners"
And called the police and sent
them to the foolish house, even to the
home of the harmless.
This parable sheweth that our
children do not always bring back
what we send them after.

SHOWS GONE-BEREA STILL
HERE

In spite of the prediction Of some
people that there would not be a
thin dime left in Berea after the
two tent shows got out last week,
business appears to be running along
pretty much after the same old
fashion and times do not seem to be
much harder than before.
Our only regret is that we could
not attend both shows every night,
but since that was impossible, we
spent most of the evening under the
Heffner-Vinson tent. This is not
meant to be a reflection upon the
Williams Stock Company. We I'M
derstand that they put on a good
show, and so far as we know, their
company is made up of gentlemen
and ladies, but we were out for a
laugh, and we knew that between
Jimmie" Heffner and Eddie Page
we would get it. There have been a
few changes in the personnel of the
Heffner-Vinson Company since it was
here last year, but judging from the
crowds they drew and the tone Of
their performances, the company is
no worse off. Eddie has improved
great deal in his singing since
last year, and his impromptu wit
still lands in the right place.

n ODGING and squirming and evad-
~ Ing direct replies TO direct
queries. the Russian delegates In the
international conference at The Hague
had, by the end of the week. brought
that conference just about TO the
breaking-up point. Their efforts were
directed toward rupturing the solidsr-
fly OF the non.Russians so that they
might lay the blame for failure on
some and then enter separate nego-
tiations with others, especially the
British. In this they seemed 10 have
failed, for the British stood solidly
with the French and others In the de-
mand that the Russians recognize the
pre-war debts, give guarantees for
the credits they asked, and state def
nitely on what terms they would re-
store foreign property TO Its owners.
All this the Russians refused to do,
and their attitude made so useless
further continuation OF the confer
ence that many ~ the delegates ar
ranged 10 start for home at once.

been authorized TO make affidavit for
warrant for the arrest of any par

 BRITISH ACTION
U. s. Officials Not Convinced There Was Any Misconduct
 Upon Part of Consuls

WASHINGTON, Sept. l. (By the Associated Press)-The Washington government is not convinced that there was any misconduct on the part of it's two consular officers at New castle, England, who recently were deprived of their authority by British officials, and until a proper investi- gation has been made, no steps are to be taken to reopen the Newcastle consulate.
 The action of the British authori- ties in cancelling the exequateurs of the two American agents it was point ed out today. automatically resulted in the closing of the consulate, and if inconvenience to British subjects has resulted, the responsibility of it does not rest upon Washington. For the present, no other consular offic- CTS are available for the Newcastle job. it is declared. and in any case, this government is immediately in- terested in having the doubt which has been cast upon-its representatives cleared away, one way or the other.
 Officials here will not discuss the incident in any detail, but it is said that cancellation of the exequarteurs came as a surprise in view of the fact that the action was taken before the state department had completed it's investigation into the British charges. that the Newcastle consul and vice consul had improperly influenced travellers to patronize vessels of the United States Shipping Board in dis crimination against British ships.

MARSH
 HUSBAND SHOT
 BY ] W N HAND
Husband of Actress Shot Be- low Heart After Cleaning
 Revolver; Operated on

PATTSBURG, N. Y, Sept. IA. M Buddy" Johnson, husband of Peg gy' Marsh, actress and dancer, is near death in the Champlain Valley hospi. tai here, having shot himself accident ally through the breast in the camp of Jack" Clifford, husband of Evelyn Nesbit Thaw on Chateauguay Lake last night. Mrs. Johnson, who brought suit against Marshall Field, III of Chi cago for recognition of her child, was with her husband. Physicians hold little hope for J0nnson's recovery.
 Mir. and Mrs. Johnson and her son had come to the Clifford camp for a few days vacation. The party spent part of yesterday at target practice with small calibre revolvers. Last night MT. Johnson had cleaned the re- volver he had used and was prepar- ing to put it away, according to an account given hospital authorities, when it suddenly exploded. The bull let penetrated his chest just below the heart, took a downward course and passed out the back.
 The Clifford ills isolated and can be reached only by boat. This hampered efforts to get speedy medical atten- tion for MT. Johnson. Dr. Elmer Thur Der of Chateauguay Lake attended him, but later he was brought here to the hospital where Dr. R. S. Me Donald, of Plattsburg performed an operation today.
 Johnson is the son of the late A. L.. Johnson former president of the Brook lyn Rapid Transit compnay. and ne- phew of Tom Johnson, former mayor of Cleveland Ohio.
