COMMUNITY CHEST
TO BE DISCUSSED
EARLY NEXT WEEK
Rotary, Kiwanis and Chamber
Of Commerce Committees
Meet Wednesday.

In the opinion of 7. D. connell,
secretary of the Fairmont Cham.
Der of Commerce, there will be no
effort made this year to secure a
community chest for Fairmont.
With the Y. M. c. A., the Saliva.
ton Army, and Cook Hospital, all
staging drives this month, the pos.
sibility of one big drive to secure
funds for all the institutions in
Fairmont this year is impossible.
The plan may be tried next year,
however, according to Mr.. Cornell.
Next Wednesday there will be a
meeting Of the community chest
committees OF the Rotary Club and
Kiwanis Club aud the civic develop.
ment committee Of the Chamber OF
Commerce, at which time the mer.
Its Of the community chest plan
will be discussed and some def.

future. It is not known how the
plan would work In this city, and
the meeting next week will con

be handled through a community

A story Of human interest, stress.
ing the worth Of all nations of peo'
pies equally, was given by Mrs. N
h. C. Morrow atsthe chapel exer.
cises Of the rairmont. Normal
School this, morning when she re
Hated some experiences in connec.
ton with. her recent trip abroad.
The program opened at 10 o'clock
with q song by the school led by
Miss Irene Osborne, music super.
visor. The devotional was. read by
Miss Dorcas Prichard, dean Of the
school, who took. as her theme the
fifth chapter Of Matthew. Miss
Prichard flttingly closed her dis,
cussion of this chapter with the
reading Of short poem oI,an in,
spring nature. "A second Gong,
"old Mcdonald" was sung by the
student body previous to the intro,
duotion Of Mrs. Morrow by Miss
Osborne.
Before beginning her address
Mrs. Morrow warned the audience
not to expect a brilliant discussion
Of the economic or social status of
the countries of Europe recently
visited by her. Instead, Mrs. Nor.
row announced, she would endeayor
to tell Of the various interesting
personalities she had become &C.
quainted with. In starting her
journey. abroad, Mrs. Morrow said,
she had experienced a dislike for
foreigners. Upon her return home
her feelings had changed consid.
erably because Of the various <situa.
tons In which the worth Of all PEG.
pies had been shown to her. Mrs.
Morrow stressed the idea that, peo.
pie cannot be Judged according to
their nationality. The personality
lis the important FEATURE In prov.
ing this statement she cited in:
stances Of kindness and intellec.
tual Intercourse she had become &C.
quainted with during her trip.
I'm thinking over the different
features of my. trip upon my return.
Il tried to ascertain which one had
been Of the greatest value to me. .
said Mrs. Morrow. "After some de.
liberation I decided that the con.
tact with the various races Of hu.
mainly had been. Of greater worth
to me than all the scenes OF na.
tpre In her sublime grandeur Iihai
witnessed" She Continued "This
decision seemed a natural one To
me after some thought, for why
should not the human element
prove the most interesting OF ali?
Man is Gods crowning glory OF
creation" u
Mrs. Morrow then told Of the
precise value she had received In
this connection. an enlargement Of
sympathy. Increased tolerance
and a humanlEing, Of the soul, being
among the values named. Human
nature Is fundamentally the same
the world over, according TO Mrs.
Morrow. In speali king Of this point

COURT DEFENDED

NEW. YORK, Oct. Ex-Governor
Allen OF Kansas today addressed
the third and last general session

ton, defending the Kansas Indus

the federal reserve system.

the court through negotiations with
