OX TEAM MAKES
 WORLD'S RECORD
HaulS 1S 1-2 Tons for 19 Feet
 in Strength Test

Amherst, Mass, July g LP-A record for weight hauled by oxen was claimed yesterday when a team owned by J. H. Guilford of Ashfield pulled the equivalent of B 1-2 tons a distance of 19 feet. Second place was accorded a team owned by Rufus Fitts of Sutesbury, which pulled 12 tons a distance of 27 1-2 feet.
 The contest was part of the pro- gram of farm and home week at Massachusetts Agricultural college. A dynamometer, a device designed to measure the relative pulling power of light and heavy horses, and operating on the principle of hydraulic pressure was used to test the strength of the oxen.
 A team of horses owned by F. W. Blakesley of East Hampton tied with a team owned by the college in another weight pulling contest. Each team hauled approximately 5 tons a distance of 27 1-2 feet.
 More than 1000 farmers attended yesterdays session of farm and home conference.

Mrs. Frank Gilbreth Tells How to Make Career Possible Although

Amsterdam, Holland, July 30 Ps- A solution for reconciling marriage and career was given by Mrs Frank Gilbreth, of Montclair, N.

 By proper husbands, she meant the kind who were willing to go "fifty-fifty' to make a wifes career possible; job analysis she interpreted as a kind of industrial engineering applied to dishwashing and chiIdren's baths and feeding. Her own ex- perience in bringing up II children while developing her work as indus trial engineer to the present point where she is recognized as world authority on industrial psychology, she used as an example, saving: Here l stand case at your dis posal"

OLD WINDMILL ON
 CAPE IS SOUGHT
Henry Ford Wants to Purchase
 Relic Of Tore

Yarmouth, Mass, July 30 P- It's a broad step from automobiles to windmills, but Henry Ford has spanned the gap.
 He has made bid for a windmill which was catching the Cape Cod breezes when the embattled farmers of Concord were making history There are other would-be purchasers and it is not yet certain whether MT. Ford will be able to add the mill to his collection of New Eng land antiques.
 Built in 18th Century
 Known as the Farris mill, the pie turesque structure was built on the north side of the cape in the 18th century. When it was moved in 17S2 to Indian Town, later known as Friends village, in South Var mouth. it was hauled by 40 yoke of oxen. Men came from miles around to help and the occasion was made a festival.
 "A barrel of rum" says an ac- count by an eyewitness, stood on end with the head knocked out, the contents free to all, with the result that there was noisy, drunken crowd ill the vicinity that night composed of both Indians and white men"
 E.. Boys Played in Arms
 Daniel Wing of Hingham, who as boy 60 years ago helped to op- crate the mill, recalls how the boys of the neighborhood risked life and limb by clambering over it's great arms.
 Among it's victims," he said, "can be counted two creatures slain, a horse and COW; a man maimed for life and at least one boy wound cd while engaged in the favorite pastlmc of running between the re- volving arms"
 The establishment was operated as a gristmill and the farmers brought their grain to be ground into meal. The wings had ladder. | like slats, with canvas which could be drawn over them when tn, breeze was light and rolled back il a heavy wind.
 Most of the other old mills on tn, Cape have vanished. although man, of the millstones have been pre- served.

ACCEPTS CHAIR AT
 BERKELEY DIVINITY
Rev. Dr. E. C. Grant Coming to
 School in MiddletOWn

Middletown, July 30. The cleo ton is announced of Rev. Dr. Fred erick c. Grant, dean of Bexley Hall, Gambler, Ohio, to the chair of sys- tematic theology in the Berkely Divinity school. It is understood that the National Council of the Episcopal church has been endeav- as secretary of adult religious edu- cation, with headquarters in New York. He has. however, declined the New York offer and will take up his duties at the divinity school in September. The headquarters of the Anglican Theological Review, of which Dr. Grant is editor, has all ready been moved to Middletown.
 The newly elected professor was born in Beloit, Wisconsin, in 1891. He was educated at Lawrence col lege, Appleton, Wis, and at Nasho- tah, the General, and Western Semi naries, from the last-named institu- ton receiving doctor's degree (magna cum laude) in 1922. In 1920 he became rector of Trinity church, Chicago. During the four years he spent in Chicago, Dr. Grant took leading part in many chari- table and civic activities. He was chaplain of the diocesan Brother hood of St. Andrew, president of the Chicago Society of Biblical Research and chairman of the Diocesan Board of Religious Education.
 In 1924 Dr. Grant became dean of Bexley Hall, the theological depart ment of Kenyon college, Gambler, Ohio. Kenyon college was founded by Bishop Philander Chase, who was rector of Christ church, Hart ford, before he became Bishop of Ohio in 1919. In 1923 the bishop went 10 England to raise money for the establishment of this school for training men for the ministry of the Episcopal church. The college took it's name from Lord Kenyon, and Bexley Hall from Lord Bexley, two of the chief English benefactors. Dean Grant in the two years of his administration attracted many stu dents to Bexley, bringing the at tendance up to the largest number in the history of the institution. He also raised an endowment fund Of s300,000. Bishop Boyd Vincent, the venerable bishop of Southern Ohio, says: "Dr. Grant did wonders in putting into BeXley new life. ideals, organization, administration. He was exceptionally qualified by his personality, his scholarliness, his ideals and plans of theological edu- cation, to do a great work at Rex
 ley. His resignation is real | calamity"
 1 Dr. Grant is not only a successful teacher and administrator but he
 already enjoys a well-established reputation as a scholar and an 1 author. Besides numerous articles
 contributed to magazines he has written two religious textbooks,
