MINISTRY CANDIDATES
TAKE PHYSICAL TESTS
Bishop Murray Insists on ALL
Around Fitness for
Arduous Duties.

Special Dispatch TO The star.
BALTIMORE, February 10.-A man =
heart must be right if he is to be
a minister in the Protestant Episco-
pal Church in the diocese of Mary
land.
And that is not so trite as 1t
sounds. for it is not enough for
Bishop John Gardner Murray that the
minister's heart be right" spiritual
ly. 1t also must be sound physically.
Candidates for the Protestant Epis-
copal ministry in Maryland must take
a physical examination. This rule
has been in effect for the past two
years and a regular examining ply
sician was designated by the bishop.
Physical Tests.
Only recently" the examining
physician said. II examined a candi-
date who had an unusually weak
candidate for orders in the church.
Ills heart could not stand the strain:
facing the congregation some Sunday
morning he might drop dead in the
some system of physical examina-
tions for candidates this man might
have been ordained"
The doctor explained that Bishop
Murray had instituted the physical
tests about two years ago. 1t had
been discovered, he said. that men
unfit physically were getting into
10 ministry and after a few years
they broke down and became a heavy
responsibility to the church.
The work of q minister in the Prot
estant~ Episcopal Church is arduous.
the doctor said, and a weakly con-
stituted man cannot stand II. The
physician has found many candidates
suffering from nervous disorders.
lung affections and weak hearts All
have been turned away, though they
had settled upon the ministry as the
work of their lives.
Rule Applies to All.
The doctor had to tell them that
they had better adopt some calling
less hurtful to the nervous system.
Usually they are between eighteen
and twenty-five, have finished col
ego and are eager to enter theo-
logical seminaries.
Candidates apply first to Bishop
Murray. II he is satisfied with their
other qualifications he sends them
TO the doctor for physical examina-
ton.
The rule applies as we'll to minis
ters Of other denominations who de-
sire to become ministers in the Epie-
copal Church and to laymen who
seek to become deacons or readers"

Wins Suit for Divorce
After Wife Is Dead
Judge Said Perhaps First Case of Its
Kind That Was Ever Known.

1NllIQ lldl w as 4SNSA IAllOWAl'
LONDON.-The British high court
decided today that a man could re-
cover damages for the loss of a wife
from man who had been a corespon-
dent in a divorce suit, although the
wife was dead before the suit was
begun. The case was that of George
Charles Kent, who after his wife's
death in 1921 discovered that she had
been unfaithful with Edgar Hamilton
Atkinson
Mr. Kent began a suit for divorce
naming Mr.. Atkinson as corespon-
dent. The suit was the first OF ;he
kind ever recorded and was adjourn
ed for consideration by the Judge
who read his decision today giving
judgment in favor OF the husband
with costs The Judge said that nc
such case had ever been brought be
fore him and he did not think that
there were many men who would
bring one like it in the future, but he
was bound to make his decision ac-
lscopding to law He said there was
no need to decide the divorce issue
as the marriage was dissolved by
death, but the husband had suffered
an injury and was entitled to com
pensation.

GHOST FIGURES AID
SCULPTOR BORGLUM
USES POWERFUL PROJECTING
MACHINE TO HELP BIG ART
PROJECT AT STONE MT.

ATLANTA, Ga.-Giant ghost fig
ures flicker nightly across the vast ex-
panse OF Stone Mountain, near here.
Robert F. Lee, Stonewall Jackson,
and Jefferson Davis can be seen lead
ing into battle hosts OF men, i'll clad
and poorly equipped but determined
to die for cause they hold sacred.
Superstitious negroes shun h c
Stone Mountain region. But Others
know these ghost figures are not a
visitation OF the supernatural but are
children of a projecting machine oper-
ated by Gutzon Borglum, famed
sculptor, who is performing the great
est projection feat on record.
Southern women have engaged Bor-
glum to carve a giant Confederate
memorial at a cost of 100000 on
the side of Stone Mountain, said to
be the largest mass of solid rock in
the world.
Borglum conceived the idea OF
marking the mountain by means OF
a giant motion picture machine. At
last the scheme has worked.
With his projection machine Bor-
glum flashes pictures across the great
black mass as easily as if he were
operating a motion picture theater.
From a slide of "a inches the ma
chine throws a picture 200 feet high
upon the face of the great granite
mountain.
How Sculptor Works.
With this remarkable protector the
Dict11re of the figures BOrglum wishes
to inscribe may be thrown on the
mountain side.
Borglum will cover the mountain
side with nitrate OF silver, which will
form a black sheet.
The figures will be cast and a de-
veoping fluid sprayed over them, thus
producing them in outline upon the
mountain.
The next day workmen will be low
cred from the top and with white
paint trace the outline of the photos.
Then from his work shop, 900 feet
from the base OF the mountain, Bor-
glum will determine whether they can
be rubbed off and others substituted.
Actual carving of the memorial will
begin May 1st, says Borglum.
Twelve years will be required to
finish the vast project and hundreds
of skilled workmen will risk their
lives hanging from the mountain top
to carve out the giant figures from
miniature models made in Borglum' S
studio.
Completed the memorial will take
its place as one of the wonders of the
world

SCHOOL SPIRIT.

School spirit is the spirit of cooper
alton, fellowship and success in all
school activities. The same spirit, that
loyal spirit which moves cities, ma
tons and worlds, should be in every
school to make that school success.
No school is success without it.
The school spirit is always in the
campus activities; it is always mani
tested in the match games and con-
tests between schools, but should be
most dominant in the class room to
achieve the benefits for which the
whole school is striving.
School spirit is the spirit OF mutual
good feeling. harmony and general
uplifting. This spirit should be devel-
oped to the greatest extent in every
student and by doing this every one
will try to add glory to his or her
school and do nothing to detract from
its honor.
School spirit is the "stick-to-it, y
pep" and comeback again" spirit
that wins. Every school boy and girl
should show this spirit in athletics
music and art, but most important
should he show it in his classes.
Fellow school mates, we have a
good High School. In the future years
you will look back with many fond
memories to the days spent at S. H
S. But do your duty now and be
proud that you have part in it.
