absent. But these travellers knew
perfectly well how to spend their Sun
day. 1t was a heather city and every
thing was wide open" and one would
be conspicuous if doing differently
from the crowd. A Sunday school
teacher couldn't find church to go
to" in a strange city but Paul made
a church where there was none before
that he might attend it. If he had not
been loyal to Sunday in a strange
town keeping none there would have
been no letter to the Philippians and
no Christian Europe. So great a
place does loyalty hold in the plans Of
God, His road is open if we will fol-
low it.

THE CONQUEST

Out beside a stream Paul found the
place of his desire, a place of prayer.
There were a few women there and
traveller was a Christian not a Phari-
see and the love of Jesus had robbed
his lips of that prayer he had so Of
ten offered, 80 God, l thank Thee
that | am not a Gentle, a slave nor
woman" Lydia of Thyatira, a rich
business dealer in dyed stuffs, kept
Sunday in strange city also and be-
cause she did her feet crossed the
path of Paul's Christ. Jesus walked
the fields on Sunday? Certainly, and
if We seek them for the same purpose
that took Him there we will find Him
in the field, not otherwise. But He
always, as His custom was, went to
church before He walked and we are
far surer of finding Him there that
where our vagrant fancy leads US. So
the Lord stepped into the heart of
Lydia that morning and made it a
door thru which the Kingdom came to
Rome, and London, and New York,
and Chicago, and China, and Japan,
and a thousand other whithers. One
faithful man, one loyal woman and
God takes world. Can we guess why
the Kingdom tarries? Just a group
of women worshipping while the man
went to the game in the amphitheatre.
More women than men in the church? ?
Not always but there are more men in
the penitentiary-does that prove
that the pen is to be preferred? 1t
is where most of US would be but for
the grace of God and the church of
Jesus Christ.

KILLS HER BROTHER
TO END SUFFERING
Sister Held After Shooting
Man Who Had Failed in
Suicide Attempt.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LEICESTER, England, March p
An extraordinary tragedy, reviving
the question of justification in the
taking of life under special circum-
stances, occurred yesterday in the
Vicarage of Hungerton, Leicester
shire.
The vicar, Rev. William Bettison,
after celebrating communion, returned
to the vicarage for breakfast. Later
he retired to his study, from which
shortly came the sound of shot.
The wears sister Miss Bettison, who,
with her brother and a housekeeper,
were the only occupants of the
vicarage, went to the study and found
her brother lying on the floor. A
sporting rifle was beside him and
there was a wound in his head.
Calls for Doctor.
There is no telephone in the vicar
age and therefore Miss Bettison went
to the post office and telephoned
doctor who lived miles distant.
She then returned to the vicarage
and re-entered the study, refusing to
permit any one else to come in. A
little later another shot was heard
inside the study and Miss Bettison
came out.
Il asked him IL he would live and
he did not reply" she said. Il saw
he was dying in agony, so l shot
him to put him out of his pain"
Miss Bettison was arrested.

PHOTOS co 5000 MILES BY WIRE
WITH EXCELLENT REPRODUCTION
Three Cities Simultaneously Get Likenesses o.
President and Wife Taken at Church Here;
Viii Use Radio Soon for Transmission.

Transmission of photographs over
telephone wire $500 miles long
simultaneously to three cities was
tested here yesterday by the American
Telephone G. Telegraph Co., and was
declared by officials to have been a
complete success
1t was the first time such transmits
sion of photographs had been at
tempted to more than one city at once
and over so great distance. Nearly a
dozen pictures were sent to New York,
Chicago and San Francisco, only seven
minutes being required for each print
Officials of the company here were in
touch by telegraph with their offices
in the three cities, and were told that
the experiment was without a hitch
The demonstration was arranged
the officials said, as a final test before
announcing establishment of a gen.
eral transcontinental picture trans
mission service, and to perfect ar
rangements for sending pictures of
the presidential inauguration We'd

Sent I'm Seven Minutes.
One Of the pictures transmitted yes
terday was of President and Mrs.
Coolidge, taken as they departed
from the First Congregational
the negative was placed on the trans
mitting machine the picture was
available for publication in New York,
Chicago and San Francisco.
While the demonstration was in
progress. a photograph was taken of
the machinery and a group of spec
tators. The film was developed and
ready for transmission within half an
hour, and seven minutes later dupli-
Gates were in the three cities.
1t was the second public demonstra-
ton of the apparatus, which was per-
fected by engineers of the Bell Tele-
phone Co. and the American Tele-
phone and Telegraph Co. The first
test was made last May.
Time Saved I'm Transmission.
1t is possible to transmit a picture
by inches, which after ordinary
development at the receiving end is
practically undistinguishable from an
ordinary photograph, officials sasd,
and is ready for reproduction. Time
is saved in transmitting photographs,
they pointed out, because it Is pos
sibie to use film before 1T has dried
after development.
The film is inserted in the trans
mitter in cylindrical form, and a
beam of light is passed through it at
uniform speed, reproducing the pic
ture on a photoelectric cell. The light
beam passing through the film moves
over its surface much as a phono
graph needle circles a record. Intri-
cate machinery transfers the light
ray to an electric current In a tele-
phone line and in turn, at the re-
osiving end, the current is trans

WOMAN CONSULAR
OFFICER LEAVES
FOR NEW POST

Pretty Pattie Field, the first
woman to be named to a consular
post in our foreign service, left
Washington today for New York
and will sail on October 16 for her
post in Amsterdam, her mother &C
companying her. They will make
brief visit to Paris before settling
down in Holland and during their
stay in New York will be guests of
Miss Fields brother.
1t was this brother, by the way,
who was indirectly responsible for
Miss Fields entering the diplomatic
service. For when she told him of
her intention of studying internA-
tional law, with a diplomatic career
In view, he laughed at the idea on
the theory that the course was
much too hard for a girl. That
put the little lady's back up and
she made up her mind that she
simply couldn't and wouldn't fail.
Never say die" became her motto
and she wouldn't admit discourage
ment. 1t will be remembered that
she failed when she first took the
examinations, partly because OF her
youth and partly because she was
weak on colloquiaI French. So she
went to Paris, put in several
months intensive study of the lar
guage, took the examinations d
second time and passed with flying
eolors.
The first woman to enter the
American foreign service, with an
actual diplomatic rating was Miss
Lucille Atcherson, but she was sent
to Switzerland as secretary Of our
legation in Berne after long
period Of service in the State De.
partment, and Miss Field is the
first of feminine persuasion to go
to a consular post in the field.
During the last weeks in Washing
ton before her departure, Miss Field
has been preparing for her new
work by studying Dutch.
