SCHOOLS in BREAK
Their Departure From Control
of Church Deplored by Lewis.
C. of E. President Addresses the
S. s. Meeting at Dodge City.

Dodge City, Kan, May 5.-The
tendency of the Christian colleges to
break away from the organized con-
nection with and ecclesiastical control
of the parent church." was depIored
by DR.. Frederick w. Lewis, president
of the College of Emporia, in an ad-
dress here today before the south
western Kansas branch of the state
convention of the Kansas State Sun
day School association. Doctor Lewis
asserted that the Christian colleges
could well afford to help solve the
Sunday schools need for trained lead
ership by extending their courses to
meet this demand.
IF the Christian college sewers its
Organic connection with the church.
it is likely to become recreant to the
purpose of its founders and it is al
most certain to ignore its RESPONSE
bility for unifying the whole process
of religious education" declared Doc
tor Lewis. He spoke on THE Rela-
tonship Between the Christian Col
.lege and the Sunday School"
MANY colleges" he said, ARE man
aged by trustees who, while they are
all Christian men, yet form collective
~ self-perpetual body not amenable
in any way to the authority of the
church. The history of many such
institutions is that they cease to be
any more Christian in faculty, teach
ing or declared ideals than those
which are controlled by a city or state
"One result of this withdrawal from
UNCONVENTIONAL connections is that the
church finds it almost impossible to
maintain a closely articulated program
or religious instruction"

OILS ON THE CURB
SETTING THE PACE
BY WILLIAM F. HEFFERNAN.

By Special Leased Wire to The Star.
NEW YORK, October 4.-Announce-
ment of the Standard Oil of California
capital increase was the overshadow-
ing consideration on the curb eN-
change today. 1t set at rest any
doubt there may have been as to the
solid basis for recent gossip about
Standard Oil "melon cutting" and led
to another day of excited trading in
the Standard Oil group.
The volume of business in these
issues was larger than on any day
since the beginning of the upward
movement over a month ago.
The Indiana stock was heavily
traded in and got close to its high
for the year.
Wildly Active.
Spectacular advances occurred in
Vacuum Oil and Standard of New
for the year. up almost 40 points
from its previous close. Standard of
Kansas, Standard of Kentucky and
Standard of Ohio were others to make
new tops. Anglo-American Oil was
taken in hand. opening up Il y points
and continuing higher Five thou
sand shares of this stock were traded
in before a sale was recorded on
the tape. Imperial Oil of Canada
gained 2l2 points in the early trading.
but profit taking by those who had
purchased this stock before it's rise
of Tuesday brought about drop to
below its previous close before the
advance had terminated in others of
the group. Ohio Oil gained over 10
points at one time.
Cities Service common attra acted at
tention, getting up to 200, while
others of this group held firm.
The rise in the Standard Oils had
stimulating effect on the inde-
pendent issues. Mutual Oil got
across - and a good demand for
Mountain Producers, Salt Creek Pro-
ducers. Simms' Petroleum and New
England Fuel Oil resulted in sub
stantial advances. Turman Oil also
did better. Gulf Oil of Pennsylvania
over.
Oil shares monopolized the atten-
ton of traders and other sections of
the list were somewhat neglected.
r. H. Macy gained fractionally and
a further rise of more than a point
in Phillipsborn was noteworthy. Glen
Alden and Southern Coal and Iron
were firm and quiet. Schultz Stores
was active again, but lost it's early
gain in the late trading. The rest
of the miscellaneous section did
little. But in no instance was there
any weakness.
The short covering movement in
Durant Motors which brought about
higher prices in this stock Tuesday,
ran its course, but the stock held
around its top price.

NEW YORK. October 4-Foreign
