N. E. CHURCH UNITY
DIVIDES GAMBLERS
Southern Bishop Arraigns Femin-
ism and Politics in Northern
: Church.
BROTHER, JUDGE, DIssENTs
Question of Assimilation One Fea-
ture of Debate.

BY Consolidated Press.
ATLANTA, June 7.--Georgia's ia
nous Gambler family has divided
against itself-on religion.
Bishop Warren A. Gambler, senior
bishop of the Methodist Episcopal
Church South, and his brother, John
s. Gambler, former judge. have taken
the place in the news columns occu-
pied recently by their brother, Asa
G. Gambler, the Coca Cola king, and
his marital difficulties.
They are arguing opposite sides of
the question whether the proposed
m merger of the Methodist Episcopal
Church South and the Methodist
Episcopal Church North should be
carried through.
Bishop Gambler is opposing the
merger, which would make of the
two branches Of Methodism-severe
in civil war days because a southern
largest Protestant churches in Chris
tendon, with a total membership Of
more than 100000 He contends
that the merger would be dangerous
to alf' and that it means "disintegra-
ton and absorption of our church
by the northern branch.
Judge Espouses Merger.
Judge Gambler. now one Of the most
prominent lawyers in the state, not
vigor, but he was one of the commit
tee of sixteen which drafted the
merger plan in St. Louis.
In this agreement" says Judge
Gambler, we have carefully agreed
on certain constitutional principles,
safeguarding, as far as we could see,
the rights of both churches. We
have thrown around our articles of
religion, our ritual and every essen
tial principle OF methodiSm. every
protection that they have now"
Feminism is one OF the questions
involved in Bishop Gamblers opposi
ton to the merger-an opposition
that has brought sharp attack and
ardent defense of his stand.
The northern church." says the
bishop, has licensed women to
preach for a number of years The
general conference of 1924 enacted
a law which Droides for the ordina-
tion OF women as deaconS and elders.
This is contrary to the policy of the
Methodist Episcopal Church. South
Again. the churches are not one
in spirit. The northern church con-
stantly NEEDLES with political affairs,
which the southern church does not,
and ought not to do.
The plan is not unification at all.
1t is a case of dangerous bifurca-
ton"
"Out OF Harmony" Is Reply.
Lined up on the side of Lawyer
Gambler against Bishop Gambler, with
others, is Bishop Edwin d. MouZon of
Nashville, Tenn. who says:
In Bishop Gamblers opinion, north
ern Methodists are not fit people for
southern Methodists to consider unit
ing with in the work of the king
dom of God. He plainly says that
they are not of the right spirit.
Well, unfortunately for the good
bishop, he is out of harmony with
his own church. The Methodist Epis-
copa Church South, speaking through
three successive conferences, has de-
clared in favor of unification."

descendant of Bishop Anderson,
whose slave-owning proved the rock
on which the churches split, is an

CLUBS TO AID CHILDREN.
Lions Expected to Approve Big
Welfare Program.

OMAHA, Neb., June 7.-Decision
that Lions Clubs should make child
welfare there major activity for the
year, made by the international
board of directors. is expected to be
adopted at the convention of the In
ternational Association of Lions

ANCIENT CHALICE, VALUED
RELIC OF CHRISTIANITY
Workmanship Indicates Piece Is
One of Treasures of EARLY
Religious Days.
From the Youths Compa anion.

From the Youths Compan nion.
Safely hidden away in a bank vault
Is silver cup, or chalice, which, in
the opinion of many learned men, is
one OF the most significant and val
uable OF all Christian relics. The cup
Is known as the Antioch chalice, and.
although the origin and history of it
are lost in the mistS of the pasts, it's
purpose. its antiquity and the region
where 1t was made are all clearly
indicated by its form and the decora-
tion on it.
The chalice consists of two cups.
one of which fits inside the other
The inner cup is plan. the outer one
is handsomely decorated in relief.
There are two figures of Christ. One
shows him as youth. the other as a
mature man. One of the figures is
surrounded by ten persons in an atti-
tude of workship-apostIes or early
fathers of the church. no doubt. The
other figure stands with a basket OF
leaves at his feet. over which is an
eagle with outspread wings.
Tradition connects the cup yith
Antioch, which, next to Jerusalem
was the first city to shelter a band
of Christians. and the workmanship
is such Is to suggest the craftsmen
of that Hellenized city of Syria. The
date of the chalice has long been in
dispute. Some authorities hold that
it cannot be earlier than the fourth
or fifth century, but the silver work
is of a delicacy and grace that is
more characteristic of the first CEN
tury after Christ than of those later
centuries when art had become stiff
and conventionaliZed.
The presence of the eagle. which
has been thought to refer to Con-
stantine'S taking the church under
the imperial protection. is now be-
lieved to signify the union with the
early Christians of a Syrian cult, the
symbol of which was the eagle. That
cult antedated Christianity, but it
was lofty in its idealism, and it held
to a belief in one god-the Highest
and it might easily have merged itself
in the swelling current of Chris
tianity.
The precise truth about this inter-
esting vessel may never be known,
but that it is a historic relic of the
very early days of Christianity and
therefore one of the most precious
objects in the world is certain.

49 Blood Tra1,stusiOrss
Fail to Sape Life Of
Local Shoe Merchant

Despite a two-year fight against
pernicious anemia, during which time
he received forty-nine blood trans
fusions, Samuel Greenbaum, a local
shoe dealer. died at his home, 3539
Porter street yesterday.
At Emergency Hospital he was
given a number of the transfusions,
amounting to one pint each. and 1t is
estimated that for blood alone from
other persons approximately $1,000
was spent in an endeavor to save his
life.
He was taken seriously ill two
weeks ago, when DIR. Shearer, his
physician, ordered another trans
fusion, in an elevnth-hour attempt

CALCUTTA, June 6.-Sportsmep all

the skin of white tiger recently
shot by the Maharaja of Sfrguja and
which is now on display here.
Except for a few darker stripings

Vulnerable cattle.
According to reports from the dis
trict in which it was killed, the beas st
actually appeared to use it's unusual
coloration as an aid in hunting. 1t
was continually mistaken for a steer or
COW as it lay quietly among the herds
waiting chance to kill, and the
natives assert that it mixed freely with
the herds without exciting alarm.
Three instances are related of the
tiger having been seen lying quietly in
the jungle and being mistaken by ma
tives for a beast it had slain, and in
each of these cases when the native
approached, he was killed.

1t is a fact not generally known
that the fingers of the right hand
move much more quickly than those
of the left. They are also much more
accurate.
Recent experiments have also
proved that the ring finger of the left
hand can work more quickly If it is
hand forefinger. Any two fingers
working together, indeed, move con-
siderably faster than one finger
working by itself. The more a per-
