CHURCH SOCIAL WITH
BIG SURPRISE FOR ALL
Electric Lights Brought About a
Regular Transformation.

The most memorable church supper
and social that has occurred in years
In certain town in the middle west
took place last winter. The town is a
rural community in the center of a
farming territory Of considerable ex-
tent
Because of the scattered population
the church supper is one Of the annual
occasions when everybody meets ev-
erybody else and . whole years sup
ply OF gossip is exchanged In the
course Of single evening. More than
that, however, the supper enjoys a big
reputation. And whom the last one
was announced the whole countryside
planned to be on hand.
When the farmers began driving in.
shortly after dark, they were amazed
upon coming in sight of the church to
perceive blaze Of light pouring out of
every window. Out In one corner of
the churchyard little gasoline en-.
CINE was chugging away, and inside,
suspended from various points about |
the building, were 4 number of CLEAN
Ing electric lights, replacing the bat
terry of kerosene lamps with which the
church had previously been lighted.
The curious farm folk soon discoy.
cred the "system"-a self-contained I
farm electric light and power plant,
consisting Of the gasoline engine, an
electric generator, the necessary wir.
ing and the Mazda lamps. It was a
contribution to the success of the SO.
cial by the towns electrical supply
agent, and 1t certainly made q hit
The whole church was filed with the
brightness Of the lights, and the So
cial atmosphere was greatly increased
thereby.

PLANTING POTATOES BEFORE
CORN GIVES BETTER YIELD

Planting potatoes after corn has
been put in, practice followed by
many Corn-Belt farmers, does not
produce the best results, according to
five-year experiment conducted CO.
operatively by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture and the Iowa
Experiment Station, The fact that,
the minimum growing temperature
for potatoes is fully 10 degrees lower
than for corn would make the reverse
of this practice seem advisable, and
yields from paintings made on various
dates from early April to the middle
of June have proved this contention
to be sound. The early planting also
has the advantage Of an early fall
market when prices usually are bet
ter than a little later when market
ing is in full swing.
In this experiment the Rural New
Yorker variety was used and the dates
of planting were set at ten-day inter-
walls, beginning April 10. The season
al rise in temperature reaches the
40-degree line in central Iowa usually
4 little before the middle of April.
The best yields were obtained from

perature passed the 40-degree line.

IN THE SENATE

The. Kimball bill to incorporate
the Maine Kennebec Bridge and
authorize a private corporation to
build bridge across the Kennebec
river at Bath, was indefinitely post
poned by the Senate Tuesday after
noon following a brief discussion.
Senator Wadsworth obtained the
indefinite postponement of the bill
providing for the issuance OF State
highway bonds. He explained that
this bill was for carrying out the
provisions of the Constitutional
amendment in regard to State
Bond issue and that if the resolve
passed it would not be voted upon
until September 1924, too late to
make any money available. This
Is unnecessary legislation and can
be just as we'll passed at the next
session." he said.

position and as an organized inter-

The entrance of the United States
into the League of Nations, while
not necessary to the success of the

an organization of the world on a

of Russia and Germany he said it

States on the outside.

Washington, April 3.-The six
army airplanes which left San An

mile fight to Porto Rico and thence
to Washington. landed at Boiling
Field today, bringing to successful
r0neiusion, one of the most remark
able pioneer flights ever attempted
by the army air service. Secretary
Weeks extended the official welcome
to the L. pilots who made the trip
and directed that citation be
placed in their records crediting
them properly with their achieve
ment
Air service officials said the flight
negotiated by land planes over wide
stretches Of water and strange land
areas without accident and on
schedule splendidly illustrated the
role aircraft could take in the
scheme Of national defense. Captain
Thomas G. Lanphier, in command of
the squadron. also pointed to this
possibility. He declared Porto Rico
formed the logical basis of action for
an air force against enemy fleet ap-

Six of Crew Rescued
from Schooner Cluett
by President Fillmore

New York, April 3-Captain A. B.
Randall of the President Fillmore to.
day reported by wireless his second
rescue at sea since he was exonerated
two years ago Of neglecting to pick
up three men in a disabled motor
boat off the Long Island coast. a..
The latest rescue was that Of the
captain and crew of six aboard the
British schooner Rita NJ. Cluett, in
distress $50 miles south of Cape Race,
while bound from Oporto to st.
Johns, n. F. The schooner. badly
damaged by storm. was fired before
she was abandoned. The Fillmore,
bound for Bremen. radioed that she
would transfer the rescued men TO
the coast guard cutter Tampa today,
and that they would be landed at
Halifax.
Captain Randall was in command
of the steamer Hudson in Oct. 1921.
when he was alleged TO have ignored
distress signals. Randall declared his
ship was carrying mail and he did
not realize the motor boat was in
trouble. eli was cleared after a
hearing before the board of steam
boat inspectors.
His first rescue after the hearing
was made in January. 1922, when he
saved the crew of six of the schooner
Rene Des Mcrs, found in about the
same position as the Cluett.

EXECUTED SATURDAY

Moscow, April (By A. P.)-Mons.
Constantine Butchkavitch, vica-
general Of the Roman Catholic
church in Russia, condemned to
death for wilfully opposing the So
Wet government, has been executed
by a firing squad.
The fate of the prelate, in doubt
sincel asst Thursday, when his ap-
peal for clemency was denied, be-
came known today when it was an
nounced that the death sentence had
been carried out last Saturday.
The secrecy that surrounds soviet
executions makes uncertain the icr-
cumstances under which the sentence
was carried out, but it seems prob
abb that Monsignor Butchkavitch
was put to death in the Moscow
prison for the condemned to which
he had been removed after the re-
prieve was refused him.
Appeals from the outside world
which had poured in upon the Soviet
authorities had no effect in staying
the hand of their eXecutioners. Com
betent opinion. indeed. is that even
the breaking of diplomatic relations
by outside governments or threat Of
war. would not have moved the
Moscow officials from their course.
