HELD SERVICES IN CAVERNS

For the first time in the history of
American caverns divine services were
held in shenandoah Caverns on Mon
day morning, when Rev, DR.. E. j.
Bnlgin, noted evangelist, preached to a
congregation of over a hundred peo-
Pile. Special music arranged by DR..
Bulgin's choir leader Rev. Alvin Car
ter was an especial part of the re-
ligious program.
In the great cathedrals several hun
dred feet below the surface, the elo-
quent preacher told the old, old story
as it was told centuries ago, under
similar surroundings, when persecution
drove the devout to subterranean
meeting places, where the narrative OF
the Nazarene's sacrifice could be re-
counted without fear of some tyrants
punishment.
Nowhere could have been found {
setting more suitable for sermon
than in Shenandoah Caverns, for here
lwhere Nature has been so profligate il
preparing indescribable beauty from
eternal stone, the rocks themselve
were mute reminders of Omnipotence
and sermon and song echoed and re
lechoed through corridors and hall
fashioned and firmed by the hands O
lGod, Himself.
Those who were fortunate enough t
have been there will never forget tn
Isolemnlty of the services and tn
lsacredness of the meeting.

who had been with DR.. Bulgin in tn
lgreat evangelistic meetings held
Harrisonburg, and man of wealt
who is liberal supporter of churc
, work was an interested member of tn
Iparty who came to the Caverns to Col
duct the services.

B. Sherman of Baltimore, who came
to Woodstock and opened a dry goods
and wearing apparel store on Court
Street, several months ago, made an
assignment on Monday for the benefit
of his creditors. Inability to meet
outstanding obligations was the cause
of the failure, and NJ. L. Walton, Jr.
and Philip Williams, Trustees, have
disposed of the stock in bulk te
local parties. The subsequent retail
sale attracted large crowds of bargain
hunters.

HEAVY RAINS.

Owing to an exceptionally heavy
rain fall which began Wednesday eve:
ming and lasted all.during the night and
the following day, many small streams
reached flood stage, and rural mail
carriers on some county routes were
unable to make deliveries.
Corn planting will necessarily be de-
layed several days, with the season
for planting already late. Gardens and
grass needed the moisture and orchards
will be benefited.
FRIDAY MORNING.
A downpour all thru the might

lSUGAR TAX COSTS
| PEOPLE HUG SUN
Presidents Delay Costing House
holders $4,000 Daily in
Sugar Bills Is Charge

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.-Presl
dent Coolidge, at this writing, is
still holding up the recommendation
of the Tariff Commission for a re
duction in the tariff on sugar.
American users OF sugar are be-
ing taxed at the rate Of $650,000 a
day this year on this common staple
of food. This means that they are
required to contribute to the bene-
ficiaries of the profiteers' tariff an
average of 2 cents a pound on all of
this years consumption of 11,S72,-
100000 pounds. The reduction of
only one half cent a pound in the
present tariff recommended by a
majority Of the u S. Tariff Com
mission, but not yet sanctioned and
proclaimed by President Coolidge,
would save the American people
about $145,00O day on their sugar
bills.
Consumption of sugar in Ameri-
can homes is estimated to be at the
peak during the months of Juiz
August, September, and October
when there is a large use of COOLING
drinks, ice cream, ETC., and wher
housewives are preserving fruits

CAPPER WOULD LEARN
PRINCE POKER GAME
One Came Kansas Senator
Says, Where He'd Find That
the King is Not High
IA HARRY B. HUNT

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.--Sena-
tor Arthur Capper of Kansas
thinks the Great American game Of
poker would provide a really demo
cratic education for the Prince Of
Wales.
"The prince" says Capper, "says
he wants to learn poker. That'd
be fine! That's one game in which
he'd learn that the king is not high.
Capper, who was recently reno
minated as Republican candidate
for the Senate in the face of a Bit
ter campaign by opponents who
charged he had failed to stand by
Lhe president on tax revision, bonus
and other administration issues, has
become a real problem for Republi-
can publicity managers.
Now that his campaign for reno
mination is over, Capper is keeping
light on in his public speeches and
in his rally and weekly papers that
have tremendous circulation
through the middle west, hammer
ing at his idea that all is not well
with agriculture despite currently
better prices and pleasant political
promises.
For the national G. o. P. organ
ization now to enter Kansas with a
campaign to contradict the claims
of the party's own senatorial choice
might be to force a large part Of
his following to throw their votes,
on the national ticket, to La Toilette
rather than Coolidge. Not a pleas
ant situation for the party manag-
ers, as you can see!
1T is had to understand" says
Capper, why the east will not adj
NIT that the west-especially west
ern agriculture-is entitled to the
same consideration given eastern
manufacturing, industrial and fnan-
ciaI interests. From Wall Street
complaints, it would be supposed
that farmers are enemies of the
Republic.
Wall Street is now enraged be-
cause senators and members of cu5
the taxes of millionaries in two.
Manufacturing interests have
not forgiven western senators who
refused to accept an the Fordney-
McCumber tariff bill.
Eastern interests which demand
