What Bill Provided

The bill would have authorized the
purchase of site and erection of a
building in Annapolis TO house all the
State Offices The majority of these
now occupy rented space in various
Baltimore office buildings, for which
approximately 100000 annually is
paid in rentals. Mr. Brady's claim
was that by the erection of State
building in the capital the State would
save money in addition to having the
offices centralized.
Objection came from the four Balti-
more city Senators and from others
who felt that, if any office building
was to be erected. Baltimore was the
place for it, because of its more CEN
trail location and easy accessibility.
BTady's Final Plea
Mr.. Brady declared in his final plea
that before he introduced his measure
he was assured OF the votes of suffi-
cient members of the Senate to put
the bill through.

things into his several hours visit

The brief opening Service was con-
lucted by the Rector, after which he
introduced the Bishop to the congre-
cation. Speaking of the connection
between the Church of England and
he Episcopal Church in this conn
try, Dr. Johnson said:
The Preface to the Book of Com
mon Prayer of the Protestant Ep!s-
copal Church states that this church
is indebted under God, for her first
foundation and long continuance of
lursing. care. and protection TO the
Church Of England While the first
Bishop consecrated for America re-
:eiyed his Orders in Scotland, the
Iext three Bishops came TO us
through the English line. These men
then joined in consecrating the first
man to be made Bishop on American
soil. DR.. Claggett 1t is a matter OF
great interest TO US that he was the
irst Bishop Of Maryland. Thus, main
ly through the English succession OF
Bishops, we were able to keep our
place in that line OF descent that
races back 10 the time Of the Apos-
Ties. For, as a matter of fact and
Of history, this church and this min
istry do trace their origin to the days
of the Apostles themselves.
1T is a great pleasure to have pres
ent at this Service not only our own
Bishop. but also Bishop from the
church across the sea, the Church of
| England"

Text OF Sermon

The Bishop took his text from the
t4th Chapter of st. Luke: "A certain
nan made a great supper and bade
many, and he sent his servant at sup-
Der time to say to them that were
bidden: Come, for all things are
now ready" and they all with one
consent began to make excuse"
Before beginning his exposition Of
the text Bishop Baynes told how he
had been reading about Annapolis
Turing the afternoon, and how he had
been carried back in thought to the
time of William and Mary, and had
discovered a link binding his diocese
o Maryland. In the time before
Anne had become Queen of England,
md when the memory of the civil
strife of Cromwell's day, and the
iebauchery and extravaganza of
Charles the Second were still strong,
movement was started to inquire
nto the condition of the Plantations

Liberals For Concurrence

Those who had fought the bill hard
est, because of it's drastic features OF
because they were opposed to any pro-
hibition measure, comprised practical
ly all of the As Delegates who voted
for concurrence and continued life for
the measure. The SO who voted
against concurrence and for immedi-
ate death of the bill were irreconcil-
able "drys" who followed the dry
leadership all through the fight on the
measure.
Nor did the dry" Delegates make
any secret of the fact that it is their
intention to bring the measure back
into the Legislature two years hence
and to make it an issue in the cleo
ton for the next Legislature. Dele
gate Funkhouser said as much in his
address, and other dry delegates
who rose to explain their votes sec

State Land Leasing Is
Over; Ward Lease Highest

Bismarck, N. D., May 1o.-Leasing
Of farm and grazing land by the
North Dakota land department has
been completed for the present year.
The lease this year varied largely in
prices, some lands being contracted at
a very low figure while in other parts
Of the state there was large demand.
The highest price paid was in Ward
county, where an 8O-acre tract was
leased for 5000. A quarter section in
Mclean county brought 1927. The
lowest price was in the badlands and
was about 10 cents an acre.
While there is little opposition in
the grazing part of the state to lease
ing GAO acres to one man, the north
eastern part Of the state has advanced
so far that it is the feeling there that
not more than 100 acres should be
leased to one man, according to the
appraisers.

SAYS TUBERCULOSIS

Grand Forks, N. D., May 7O.-The
North Dakota climate and conditions
are equally as good, if not better for
the care and cure Of tuberculosis than
those offered in the south and west,
is the opinion Of DR.. James Grassick,
president Of the North Dakota Anti
tuberculosis association.
DR.. Grassick has just returned from
California and other western states,
where he spent the winter. He visit
ed sanitoriums in California, Texas,
Mexico, New Mexico and Arizona.
It was DR.. Grassick's opinion that
in the treatment Of tuberculosis pa
tients the. south offers but one ad-
vantage over the state, and that is
that they may be made little more
comfortable. However unless persons
affected with tuberculosis are pre-.
pared to get all of the necessities and
quite few of the luxuries, in the
southern resorts, they are advised to
remain in their own state for treat.
