FRANK w. TEACHER,
President of Trustees.


Following the reading of these re-
solutions Mr.. Thatcher said that he
could not refrain from adding word
of personal testimony to the unswerv-
ing honesty of Mr.. Parker, not only
on the Sabbath, but on every day of
the week. He said that Mr. Parker
carried his Christianity into every
business relationship and that when
Mr.. Parker made a statement, people
knew they could absolutely depend
on it.
Mr.. Philip C. Mann then spoke in
behalf of the Session of the Church.
He told most touchingly of the last
conversation he had had with Mr..
Parker on their way home from a
Session meeting. and spoke of the
wonderful faith and trust in God
that had been Mr.. Parker's most
deep-rooted convictions.
In conclusion, Rev. James Hawley
Kendall spoke from the text, "Know
Ye Not That There is Prince and
Great Man Fallen This Day." and
said what a great loss the Church
had sustained i'm the passing away Of
Mr.. Parker. AS an elder he had Civ
en- the Church loyal and unselfish de
votion and service. as a friend ant
counsellor he had given the pastoI
an open-minded attitude on all ques

Memorial Service
Impressive Ceremony Held At The
Presbyterian Church.

Presbyterian Church.
A very beautiful and impressive
Memorial Service was held in the
Beverly Presbyterian Church on Sun
day evening, last, in memory of the
late Justus W. Parker, for the last
five years an elder of that church
and assistant superintendent of Grace
Chapel. The Church was filed with
Mr.. Parker's friends who joined with
full hearts in the singing of his fay-
orite hymns.
The first speaker was Albert Warn
er, one of the boys in Mr.. Parker's
class at Grace Chapel. He spoke
very feelingly on the comradeship
between Mr.. Parker and his class of
boys, saying that the boys loved Mr..
Parker, first because he sincerely
loved them, secondly because he un-
derstood them, and thirdly for the
abiding truths which he taught them.
Mrs. j. H. VanSciver then spoke
for the teachers of Grace Chapel,
saying, how loyal and devoted Mr..
Parker had been to the work there,
and what great loss they all felt in
his going.
The following resolutions were
then read by Mr.. Frank w. Thacher,
President of the Board of Trustees:

The reason for this sums being 80 large is the fact that criminals engaged in the practices are aware of the laxity Of the enforcement of the laws pertain ing to the particular crimes and consequently they work with little fear of apprehension or punishment.
 The money raised in this drive will be used to bring about the or ganization of forces to investigate suspicious cases, bring the facts in- 10 federal courts and, if possible, bring about convictions followed by punishments sufficiently severe to prevent repetition of the crimes The funds will be expended at the rate Of about s5oo,o00 each year.

 New York. May New Forks growing toll of motor violators has reached such proportions that traf- fc court on Mulberry street presents almost the worst traffic problem that motorists have to face.
 Day after day the three court rooms, seating 120 persons each, are called upon to accommodate q cal endar Of from 500 10 700 cases, with 1450 cases the high water mark during a recent parking crusade.
 But the court itself Is sometimes the least of the worries Of the traf- fic violator. Street vandals often steal his car or pilfer all it's mov- able parts while he Is waiting in court; policemen leave him tickets for parking too long, pickpockets use the daily crush to steal his purse and the inevitable delays in court cost him heavily in his business. So full of terror Is the ordeal for traffic offenders that court records show more than 99 per cent plead guilty, preferrtng to have the stigma first offender" attached to their names than to add 10 delays by pro- testing innocence. Court attendants quote them as saying they want to get 1t over with as quickly as pos sible.

FOR DAY IN BOWLING

BUFFALO, n. Y, March 21-Bovl-

and individual events of the A. b c.
tournament, and also won a place
among the high ten for aII-events,
Charles Brown, Toledo, who toppled
6S7 pins for his three games in the

his sensational rolling in the doubles
this afternoon, scoring $50, and with
Jack Binsley took second place
Their total for three games is 1855
pins.
Brown counted scores of 257, 1ee
and 232 in the two-man and looked
well toward first place in alI-events
but l23 score in the second game of
his singles put him out of the run
ming for high mark. He did well
however, to finish his individual event
set with a count of SIS, giving him A
score of 1872 for nine games, to take
second place.
A Milwaukee pair also placed
among the two-man leaders today, D.
Miller and A. Yuhnke tying for eighth
with total of 1895 pins. There were
several high marks in the singles, but
none quite good enough to win places
among the 10 leaders. Toledo's hon
ors In this class were carried by II

With the regular schedule COM
pleted, the bowling for the next two
weeks will be in the form of tourna-
ments.
Bucks won a well deserved victor,
annexing the. title a margin Of six
games, their fighting spirit keeping
them in the running even in adverse
moments in the season when the
breaks seemed to be going against
them.
Charlie Holbrook, captain of the
last game to dislodge Roy, Whitford,
the individual average leader, but his
game Of S6, following 131 and 119,
spoiled his chances.
Farlee's Dodgers, by their clean
sweep over the Reds, supplanted the
latter in second position, Quinns 320
set being the best registered.
Roberts Pirates jumped into tie
for the third honors with the Giants
and hte Reds by defeating the former
in two games while the latter were
dropping, all three. Whitford's 127
game featured the .Giants-Pfrates
match.

continuation OF the pace he has
been setting should be sufficient to
warn the leading men in individual
average that this speed-ball merchant
may supplant them for the premier
honors. Any bowler capable of top

Is a competitor to be reckoned with,
and the volcanic Joe hung up that un-
usual record only two.years ago. He
made strikes in the eighth, ninth and
tenth boxes of a game that decided
the league pennant winner. The mrs
OF his extra two balls in the tenth

eight pins, while the first ball OF the
