Hague Court in Favor
 Of Albania in Dispute

The Hague. Oct. 7.-The perma- ncnt court of international justice has given a decisions by which the dispute between Albania and Jugo- slayia over the ownership of the monastery of Saint -Naoum has been settled in favor of Albania. The dis pute was originally placed before the conference of ambassadors on December, 1922, which allotted the monastery 10 Albania, but allowed Jugoslayia to dissent. The ambas- sadors being unable to effect a set- uement passed the dispute on to the league of nations. The question being a legal one, the court of ius- tice rendered the verdict for the league.s
 This constitutes the ninth advisory opinion given by the court since its first session in July 1922.

COMMUNICATED
Real Work of Preacher.

Editor of the Herald:
 I read the article on your editorial page entitled modern preaching, ' and while I agree with most of it, yet think the writer loses sight of the real work of the preacher which is the saving of souls and the culture of the spiritual life and the holding up of Christian ideals, as exempli- fled in the teachings of Jesus. A min ister in these times must have cour- age to point out the evils of the day.
 Paul's advice to Timothy as a preacher was-"Preach the word, be instant in season, out of season re- prove, eXhort with all long suffering and doctrine"
 read in the Record of Christian Work a sermon on the Christian Home, in which the writer says: 'The one thing that impresses me as l go in and out of a great variety of homes is not the moral break down, 1t is not the unhappiness, but it is the lack Of the spiritual note, the absence of religion in family life. It is not that the situation as regards morals is bad; it is that we have not in our family, lived up to the ideals of Jesus Christ" And further he says: Tt is my experience that the religious life of the family is non-cxistent in America today, ex- cept in few cases" And he thinks it is a tremendously serious situation.
 AS l sit in my study this Sunday afternoon. l can see the extra tro- leys pass on their way to the Will low Brook park 10 bring hack the crowds who are attending the foot ball game.
 How many ministers have stood in their pulpits, and said that Sunday games of this kind are wrong?
 Yet they seem wrong to me. We read in the Bible which is still used in the churches, Remember the Sabbath Day to keep 1t Holy. In 1t Thou shalt not do any work"
 lABDN " lO IIdN Oli llt ltdl1S III q football game find 1t hard work. It is recreation only for those looking on. These crowds of people encour- age the game and by paying the fee hep 10 commercialize the Sabbath.
 heard man say that his boy played Sunday afternoons, especially if he could earn money that way, and some did earn as much as sixty dollars. This boy never goes to church, so Sunday Is not much of a spiritual uplift to him.
 l would like to say one thing on the evangelistic type of preacher. There is a prominent one of this type in the South who comes 10 Northfleld quite often, and is a most wonderful speaker. In the maga- zine from which have already quoted, he relates his experience with one of the worst men he had ever known. He conducted a gam bling business not far from the min ister's church, and was leading young men astray. He went to the man, and tried to talk with him about his soul, but was refused.
 Finally through the minister's in- fluence, he was put out of business, and even though he threatened the minister's life, he finally got down on his knees, repented of his sins and he and three companions joined the church.
 am remlnded>of the words found in Daniel; And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the Armament, and they that turn many 10 righteousness, as the stars forever and ever" TRUTH. New Britain, Oct. 5, 1924.

MELLON AND ALUMINIUM

The federal trade commission
 made report on the aluminium
 business which tends 10 indicate that
 the company controlling most of the output Of that commodity in America has been making good profits The high tariff is said to have helped it and it enjoys virtual monopoly"
 Secretary of the Treasury Mellon is said to be interested in the com- pany. Fairness to Mellon prompts the observation that merely being in terested in moncy-making concern is not contrary to public policy,
 Mellon was rich before he became secretary of the treasury and 1t is certain he did not accumulate his collection of investment certificates by working with his hands, And it is equally certain that nobody ex- pccted him to throw his securities overheard when he became a mem- ber Of the cabinet; certainly Mellon didn't expect to make this sacrifice.
 Melons wealth may tincture his conception of administering the de- partment over which he presides, and may affect his recommendation to congress, as it is claimed was the case in the Mellon tax bill, But that is another matter. Such possible prejudice should have been foreseen | before he was appointed to the 1 cabinet. That it wasn't was the : fault of the administration and leaves an opening for the charge it wanted that type of man.
 Melons appointment cannot rightly be held against him, as he merely accepted what was offered him. If the appointment was unwise' it was the fault of the administration an error by the late President Harding. In the estimation of many citizens, man like MT. Mellon, identified wils many large enter prises, should never have been chosen secretary of the treasury.
 But the methods of the aluminium company with which he is Identified are not to be attributed to the sec retary. He does not run ir. He may consent to it's alleged practices;a so would many another man so long as there was profit in fl.
 The aluminium concern, according to the commissions report, has bee> holding up manufacturers of uten- siIs in which aluminium is a part, especially independent manufactur- CTS. This is important if true. Yet, the report comes at d Illi'e "ieH congress is not in session. The De- cember gathering of that body may act on the report, and again it may not. Lame ducks, who may be prominent in the short session, may lack incentive to get excited over the aluminium trust. By the time the following. congress meets the alum mum trust may have mended its ways, especially if sufficient Demo- crats are elected and the outlook looks gloomy for a continuation Of the alleged methods complained Of.

 In later times, after the murder of St. Thomas. a Becket. archbishop of Canterbury, had made Canterbury Cathedral the constant resort of pilgrimages such as Chaucer de- scribed in the Canterbury Tales, the holy We'll of St. Clement was a favorite halting place Of the pious cavalcades for rest and refreshment.

DOOM OF THE BIG CITY

to no less parsonage than Henry Ford He. doesn't mean, of course that the large cities will dlsintegratt and lose their populations, but he does mean that they have nearh reached the end ot their power a. industrial centers.
 In an interview in "Automotiye Industries" the motor magnate de. livers tho following observation:
 ''The modern city has done
 its work and a change is coming.
 The city has taught us much,
 but the overhead expense of liv-
 ing in such places is becoming
 unbcarablc, The cost of main
 taining interest on debts, of
 Keeping up water supply, scwer-
 age and sanitary systems, the
 cost of traffic control and of
 policing great masses of people,
 are so great as 10 offset the benc-
 fits of the city. The cities are
 getting too heavy and are about
 doomed.
 Industry of the future will be
 organized on q big scale, but
 competition will force it 10 move
 10 parts Of the country where
 labor is steady and overhead
 costs low.
 The farm has, its dull season.
 when the farmer can come into
 the factory, and the factory has
 its dull season when the work
 men can get out on the land and
 help produce food.
 Every man Is better off for
 a period of work under the open
 sky, and while We cannot afford
 the time to go off for three or
 four months of the year to
 dawdle around some fancy sum-
 mer resort, yet We can escape
 the routine of the factory and the monotony of the farm by an
 exchange of labor during the
 slack seasons"
 There is some confirmation to be had in considering conditions in New Y ork city. Transportation greatly ags behind the public needs. despite l wonderful system of subways existing, Living expenses are enormously high. so that high salar- es buy relatively less comfort than salaries in smaller cities. Manufacturing costs as a result must )e higher. yet the products thus manufactured must face the compe- ition of goods made under more economic conditions.
 Other large cities are in compara- lively the same fix. Millions of people wing in them are eager to change 0 localities where strap-hanging and he inconveniences of modern cave fife are eliminated, and will leave hem as rapidly as opportunities ,ffer. In the last decade urban life Ias increased rather than decreased, ut when the pendulum swings the ther way-as it is expected to do " observers who share the views f Ford--it will swing far.

DAVIS AT WORK
 ON HIS ADDRESS
Declares He. Is Fit To Fight Wild
 Cats

DARK HARBOR, ILESBORO, Me-, July 21.-Declaring himself fit to fight his weight in wild cats if need be, John W. Davis, democratic presidential nominee, got back to work today, think ing out phrases of his acceptance ad- dress and attending to correspondence.
 After q morning in his temporary workshop in Charles Dana Gibson's studio on Seven Hundred Acre Island, Mir. Davis called it day and with Mrs. Davis went to Islesboro for lunch with Mir. and Mrs. Frank l.. Polk at their summer home, Frank B. Moves, of Washington, D. C., president of the Associated Press, and Mrs. Moves, who arrived here today in their yacht, also were luncheon guests of Mir. and Mrs. Polk.
 After lunch the democratic nominee and his host drove to the Tarratin Golf club for a match over the nine-hole course at the upper end of 1lesborO. Mir. Davis had delivered to him today copies of the democratic, republican and La Toilette platforms, as well as the keynote addresses at the democratic SOuNcutiOu dL-4NcW 4OIA anu dI lhO lWV conventions at Cleveland.
 Have you read the democratic plat formT' Mir. Davis asked at his daily conference with newspaper correspon- dences. "I have" he replied, with a smile. 'I won't be misquoted on that"
 The nominee added that he also had read the republican and La Toilette platforms, but explained that he was
