 At the same time one of the large rooms on the first floor near the en- trance has been refited to house the department of religious education and make a separate office for Rev. Warren M. Blodgett, the minister of religious education. This will be the headquarters for all the officers and teachers of the Sunday Church school and the Week Day Church school which meets in the First Church. It will also be fitted as a workers library.
 Doors have been cut through be- tween the chapel balcony and the church auditorium galleries. This will allow Sunday school pupils to go directly from the chapel to the church auditorium, having special seats in the gallery.
 A new policy in the Sunday Church school will begin on the first Sunday | of October. All of the children and young people in the junior. inter- mediate and senior departments of the school will go in a group direct ly from the Sunday school into the church galleries for the opening of worship with the adults from 11:00 until 11:20. This open service is be- | ing especially planned to minister to the needs of both the adults and the young people. Doors were also cut through between the two build ings to add to the safety of the church auditorium when large meet ings are accommodated in it.
 The chapel has been redecorated throughout. The woodwork has been painted and vanished and the walls and ceilings kalsomined and

GERMAN PRESS COMMENT COOL
Not Excited Over League Wants Troops Withdrawn

Geneva, Sept. g 0P - With Ger many now a member of the league of nations and entitled to sit in the council of the league on terms or equality with the "big four Great Britain, France, Italy and Japan - her delegates today were on their way to Geneva to particl- pate in the activities of the organ ization which has as its objective the outlawing of war.
 Headed by Dr. Gustave Strese- mann, the Reich foreign minister. and having among its members Count von Bernstorff, former am- bassador to the United States, the delegation was expected to arrive late this afternoon and to formally assume their duties on Friday.
 The attitude of Spain toward the league still served today to in trigue everyone in Geneva. It was asserted that no communication had been received from Madrid announcing Spains resignation or a policy of aloofness because. Of the declination to give Spain per manent seat in the council.
 A report that the resignation ex- isted, even though it had not been delivered to the league officials continued to evoke great interest. It was recalled that M. Palacios, head of the Spanish delegation, al- ways had contended that Spain's attitude could be announced onyl when all hope of election to seat was definitely lost.
 The matter of the reorganization of the council still must be dis cussed by the assembly, and 1t is considered that Spain would be acting in a logical manner should she withhold officially despatchine her resignation until the assembly debate has terminated.
 It is considered quite likely that the European statesmen will en, deavor 10 have Spain and Brazi retain their adherence to the league, in order to preserve the or ganization's character of univer' salty. A | J JCStCiiay Q StoSiolA cL 'iiN assembly Francisco Urrutia of Co., lumbia, on behalf of Latin Amer ica, began the movement by voic' ing the hope that the two coun tries would continue in the future to keep within the fold. It is ad nlitted. however, that any predica tion as to what Spain will do would be extremely hazardous owing tt the uncertainties of the situation in that country.
 Advices from Berlin indicat, that the election of Germany t membership in the league failed to arouse enthusiasm on the par of the newspapers, except the na tionalist press. Most of the organ seem sceptical that the position 0 Germany has been greatly i'm proved.
 !. The Boersen Zeitung says Ger many has joined the circle "as al infamous partner who still has policeman stationed in his hous and who is branded with the lyini stigma of a morally inferior Wa culprit." It adds that peaceful co operation will not be possible, g. long ass the humiliation impose by the Versailles treaty upon Ger mans is not removed.
 The Deutsche Allgemiene Zeitun says there no longer is reason fo troops of occupation in German and that a demand must be mad that they leave. The Deutsch Zeitung characterizes the electio of Germany as the comedy a Geneva The Tagliche Rundscha

WARRENTON, Va, Jan. 3D.
When the 6-year-old daughter of
George Freeman, colored, poor
and crippled newspaper carrier,
fell on the ice a few days ago,
her father gave her String of
beads" he had just found, 30 that
the trinket might stop her tears.
Georges wife has left him and
he has to take the girl and her
4-year-old brother with him on his
daily rounds.
Trinket Worth 100000
The child's toy was worth $780,
900, George now has learned, and
he's richer because OF the discovery
by $1,000 in actual cash, sum that
represents most of the money in
the world to the crippled carrier.
Mrs. Mitchell Harrison, of Vint
Hill Farm, Nokesville, and of Phila-
delphia, lost the Stirring of beads. :"
She advertised the loss, and half
the people in this town had been
digging in the snow for several
days, hoping to find the pearls.
Pearls Identified
George happened to see the ad
and thought perhaps the toy" he
had given his little girl was the

was identified and the reward paid.
Georges first purchase from his
fortune was new toy for the
little girl. She had missed the
beads and was crying again.
