Mr.. Ochs said that he felt that

greatest asset the South has today lis
It's negro population. They furnish a

she could take 100 more girls If she

He added:

$4,000 IS VOTED
FOR NEGRO SCHOOL
EpiscopaIians to Establish
Institution for Training
Women in Church Work.

Authorization for the expenditure
of $4,000 on a national school for
the training of celored women as
church workers has been given ia
the National Council of the Episcopal
Church, and contracts will immedi.
ately be awarded for the erection Of
the school at Raleigh, N. c., on thg
grounds Of st. Augustine's School
which is one of the IL institutions il
the South conducted by the America4
Church Institute for Negroes. It is ex-
pected that the new school will behn-
ished and equipped for use at the be-
ginning of the academic year OF
1856.
With the exception of $1,000, which
will be raised by the negroes of the
South, the construction of this new
school Will be financed entirely by
the Woman's Auxiliary of the Eptsco-
pal Church. 1t is a new venture in
church educational work, and is in
tended to take advantage of the de-
sire for further training to fit them
for special service, expressed by mem
bers of young colored women in the
South, who are attending the various

The need for such a school was first
called to the attention OF the church
authorities through a memorial from
the Province of Washington, advo-
eating the organization of such an
institution. The subject was later
taken up by the Woman's Auxiliary
at the triepnial general convention OF

NORFOLK, Va, February Wv. &
Granger of Roanoke. president of the
Virginia State board of examiners in

OF charge of accepting a bribe by
jury in corporation court here. He
was alleged to have accepted $500
from Frank Salasky, local optome-
trist. in consideration of WHICH he was
to see that a son and brother of
Salasky were granted certificates to
practice optometry in the State.
The defense was based on a plea of
"frame-up."

who had been concealed beneath a
counter by prearrangement, after $500
In cash and a check for 5000 had been

same help from above as He had ex-
perienced in His battles with the
world. The life of Christian should
be a reproduction of Christ's life in
the flesh, untainted by iniquity and
free from its gloom, encouragement
and sin.
His prayer was not that His disci-
pies should be free from the tempta-
tions and trials of life. He sought
that they might be disciplined and de-
veloped by mastering life's problems
Apart from His personal presence the
Master sought that they should be
consecrated and developed through
the words of the gospel that He had
preached and taught. He longed that
they should carry on His work.
Christ's intensity Of service was to be
their standard, as II ought to be our
ideal Of service. He died to save men
and We ought to be willing to lay
down our lives for the salvation of
our fellow men. 1t is our mission to
glorify God in a manner similar to
the way Jesus glorified the Father.
Praying for His Church.
The last section of Christ's inter-
cessory prayer covered a large COM
pany-those who should believe in
Christ through the disciples word.
Christ prayed for church unity, not
union. 1t is more powerful than
union. He sought for a spiritual
unity similar to that which existed
between Jesus and the Father
knowledge of the Lord requires that
Love Him and all who love Christ,
so that our life and labor will be a
living demonstration of His life. light
and love. He longed to pass on to
them the glory that He had received
from the Father. If we all prove our
love by life of obedience to Christ
and love for others, men will be won
for Christ and His church.
His closing petition is a revelation
of His love for our fellowship in the
life beyond the grave. He expressed
the longing that His disciples should
be with Him in heaven and there be-
hold His glory. The indwellfng of
Christ In us here reveals His glory
to men and gives US a sample of our
future glory. If we love Him and
follow Him. we will not only see the
glory of our Lord in this world, but
also in the world to come, when
through the experiences of death we
shall come to enjoy Christ's glory
with the redeemed in the Fathers
home in heaven.
II we understood the glory that
awaits US in the future life beyond
the grave we would be moved to
manifest the spirit Of Christ in our
relation with one another and we
would girdle the globe with inter
cessory prayers that would hasten His
coming. 1t is through His indwelI-
ing presence with US that we are
being kept today from sin, "sancti-
fed. in service, given unity of life.
