History of York Church.

The SOth anniversary OF the
.ounding of the First Presbyteri
II. church of York was observed
at services last Sunday morning.
A History of the First Pres.
Dyterian Church" was the title
Of a paper read by Elder G. Fl.
O'Leary, in which he traced the
record of the church from it's or
ganization down to the present,
bringing to light u wealth of in.
teresting information. "Eighy
Years OF Presbyterian Progress
was the subject of an Illuminating
talk by the pastor, the Rev. r. E.
Gillespie, ID. d., in which he mar.
rated in graphic manner the
forward march and expansion of
the church since it's establish
ment.
The church was organized June
10, 1912, with Is charter mem.
bers. The first minister was the
Rev. Ferdinand Jacobs. A Sun
day school was organized in 1843,
+. A.. Crenshaw being the first
superintendent. The church dou-
bled its membership in less than
a year, as is shown by the first
report to presbytery in 1S43. To.
day the church has 693 members
and last year it contributed to
benevolences $4,000, local sup.
port $6,117, making a total. for
all purposes Of SALT. ..

One thing to be said in praise
OF the average member of the
American Congress is that he is
"a gentleman and doesn't think
himself so all-fired selfsufficient
as to assume that it is beneath
his dignity to thank the newspa-
pers for. kind. references to him.
An illustration of this came un-
der the observation of The Times
Il few days ago when the mail
from Washington brought two
letters to this Office, one from
Congressman Fred Dominick and
the other from Congressman Jas.
F.. Byrnes, expressing their graf
ltude to The Times for compli-
mentary references to them in
these columns a few days ago.
A number of similar communities
lions also have been received at
his Office from Congressman W..
+. Stevenson since he began rep
resenting the Fifth district a
--ew years ago.
AT the Congress of Vienna Bis
mark observed that if could i'm
Agine himself OF as. much impor-
,ance as some people thought
themselves he would feel certain
ne was the boss of all humanity.
Which was one way the German
statesman, had of saying some
!olks take themselves entirely too
seriously.
A fact not as generally known
III this country as it should be
rs that in the matter of honesty
the Chinese lead the world. We
may detest the customs of the
Chinese i'll other respects, but we
are bound to conccde their hon.
esty. With them honesty is not
Il principle but a policy, a fixed
,rait. They are honest, not from
L moral standpoint, but because
hey have learned through thous-
dnds OF years that honesty pays
III prosperity rs well as in happi-
ness. Confucius, philosopher of
action and reaction made the
Chinese honest by his advice,
DO not do unto others that
which you would not have them

n his transactions, is constantly
ooking for dishonesty, to punish
4. The Chinese constantly watch
or honesty, to reward it. One
,'eason we have so much trickery
and -thievery in our white civil
|sGation is that we do not reward
honesty with the same enthus,-
ISM that we inflict punishment
.Or stealing. The white race will
grow wiser as it natures mental,

,Gme lessons from the Chinese,
10 matter how far we may think
ourselves ahead of them.

That Gary Is the dumping

state penitentiaries. and that the
city is infested with parole prison
ers and criminals of the lowest type
was the startling admission OF
Chief of Police Forbis TO reporters
this morning
1T is almost Impossible to keep
a check on all of them as they
come and co. said the chief.
Some Of these wardens send them
to Gary after they have served their
time or they have bean paroled and
we have no way Of checking them
IN until we either take them into
custody as suspects and arrest them
after they have gotten into
trouble"
IF these penitentiary heads
would only notify US that those
criminals have been sent here. we
could be on the lookout for some
Of them. but as It is we a only
keep a watchful y until there is
a murder. robbery, burglary or
some 9th T crime"
Many instances are on record at
the Gary police station where II
has been proven that penitentiary
heads have mads Gary a dumping
ground for criminals. Some OF
them have confessed on being ar
rested that they are sent here- Thsy
may keep out Of trouble for awhile
but 1t is a safe bet that they will
do something wrong sooner or later.
