LAUSANNE. Switzerland. August
13.--The differences between East
and West on the subject of sacra-
ments were clearly shown during to-
days discussions at the world confer

acknowledged that the conference
faced one of its most difficult tasks in
reconciling the mystical views of the

and its superlative reverence for ira
dition, with the modern opinions of
Western Professionalism.
The Right Rev. Nicholai, Bishop
of Ochrida, Jugoslavia and repre-
sentative of the Eastern Orthodox
Church, was one of the speakers Sc
tected to present the subject of the
eacraments. He said there were
seven sacraments, namely, baptism,

While recognizing the important
problems that arise in connection
with the other sacramental rites of
the church, the conference decided to
limit discussion and action, so far as

Club Leaders In Marietta

Miss Bernice Bailey and Miss
Frances Palmer, All club leaders,
were in Marietta Saturday to meet
Miss Bane, home economics special
ist from our State University. The
, meeting was held in the interest of
"Girl Room Arrangement" projects
in All club work. The two Morgan
county All club leaders who attend
ed each have several girls in their
clubs taking the room arrangement
work.
A new All club was organized Sat
urday in Bloom township. The fol-
lowing are members: Cleo and Clari-
bel Sevall, Vaughn White, Alice
Fogle, Freda Derwacter and Lola
Williams. Miss Corinne Reed is un-
dertaking the leadership of the club
with all the mothers of the girls en-
rolled acting in an advisory capacity.
Separate Chicks When 6 Weeks Old
Both pullets and cockerels will
grow better if they are in separate
quarters as soon as sex can be deter
mined. At six weeks of age we can
tell surely. and that is the time to
separate them. Many of the cocker
els will be large enough at that time
to sell as broilers. The rest should
be put by themselves and grown to
broiler size as soon as possible. Ii
breeding cockerels are to be saved,
save about twice as many at this
time as will be needed, SO as to al
low for a second selection in the fall
when they are mature. Select the
quick maturing birds which have
bright eyes, broad back, deep bodies
and relatively short legs. These Sc
lected breeders may be allowed to
run with the pullets.
Clothing Club Leaders Meet
The 19 leaders in All Clothing
club work in our county are to meet
with Miss Swift, extension clothing
specialist, at 10 a. m. in the exten-
sion agents office, Tuesday, June 7.
This is the opportunity which each
leader has to make her work more
effective for her girls, when she re-
turns to them after attending the
conference with the clothing special
list. We hope every leader can be
present, but in a case when she can
not attend, we hope she will send
substitute without fail.
