SECOND ANNIVERSARY
OF THEIR PASTOR

The Moore Street Baptist Church
will celebrate the second anniver-
sary of their pastor, Rev. Gordon b.
Hancock, D. D., beginning Sunday
morning, October 10th, and ending
Sunday, October %, 1927. The re-
markable improvement made in the
affairs of the church since DR.. Han
cock has been in charge is some
thing almost beyond the expectation
of the most optomistic member.
DR.. Hancock has gotten into the
hearts of the members of the church
and the community at large, as can
be attested by the enormous crowds
of enthusiastic people who attend the
church to hear him preach. One of
the features of the services this year
will be the appearance on the pro-
gram of Rev. o. G. Allen, D. D., of
Calvary Baptist Church, of Norfolk,
Va, and Rev. Fred w. Black, of
Metropolitan Baptist Church Of
Portsmouth, Va.

Calmly Surveys Scene.

The condemned man, calmly sur
veying the scene, saw the correspon-
dents of the Associated Press, the
New York Times and the New York
Herald-Tribune, the only foreign
newspaper men present, waved his
hand and cried in English, Good
bye. Goodbye"
Then as the firing squad took its
position he said to the soldiers, "You
are too far away. Come closer" The
squad advanced few steps.
"You are still too far away" said
Quijano, with not a tremor in his
voice. "You had better come still
closer"
Again the squad moved forward,
narrowing the distance at about fif-
teen feet.
The commanding officer then
asked: "Do you desire to be blind
folded?"
General Quijano proudly tossed his
head.
mo" he said loudly.
"Queno." The officer stepped
aside out of the line of fire and
raised his sword for the signal.
The soldiers aimed their rifles
Silence gripped the courtyard. Even
the children, sensing the tenseness,
ceased their prattle.
Quijano pushed the pith helmet
back bit on his forehead.

Mexico City, Oct. General
Alfredo Rueda Quijano, executed
for rebellion, died bravely.
Placed against a sun-warmed wall
in the courtyard of grim old San
Lazardo military prison, stripped of
his insignia and branded traitor,
he spurned the blindfold which would
have shut out the sight of the fatal
rifle muzzles and twice summoned
his executioners nearer, that they
might not miss.
Quijano led his troops out of the
Mexico City garrison barracks last
Sunday night to join the rebellion
for the leadership of which General
Francisco Serrano has already been
executed and Generals Arnulfo
Gomez and Hector Armada are be-
ing hunted in the interior of Vera
Cruz.
Seized and turned over the gov
ernment forces by his own men, who
claimed he had deceived them, Gui
jano was questioned before a court
martial all of Wednesday night, and
early yesterday was found guilty and
condemned to die.
At IL O'Clock he was taken across
the city from the Santiago prison,
where the courtmartial sat, to the
place of execution. He arrived there
at 1920. Five minutes later he lay
lifeless on the ground, but in the in
terim he had borne himself with such
a degree of composure and fortitude
that even the soldiers who killed him
murmured: "Que hombre! Que hom-
brer' (@'What a man").
Nearly 1000 troops lined the
courtyard when the general entered,
walking ahead of his guards, smiling
and waving greetings to friends he
CHANGED to see. He wore khaki mill
tary breeches, leather puttees and
the pith sun helmet, which is the
field headgear of Mexican officers.
But the insignia on the helmet had
been removed and his military blouse
had been replaced by a double
breasted dark civilian REFER jacket,
buttoned and belted.
Clean shaven, and showing per-
feet sef-control in every line of his
clear-cut face, he strobe across the
courtyard without hesitation, select
ed a place before the granite wall
and stood rigidly erect, a command
ing figure, more than six feet tall,
of powerful build.
The courtyard had been opened
to the public and vendors of ice
cream cones, pop corn, fruit and
candy shouted their wares. Work
men in overalls, washerwomen with
baskets of laundry, looked on, while
curious children ceased their play
and peered down from the balconies
of nearby tenement houses.
1t might have been a carnival, but
fer the lone figure against the wall,
where tiny lizards played among
the bullet holes that gave grim testi-
mony of the previous tragedies en-
acted there.

Jaw Firmly Set.

The smile had vanished, and his
jaw was firmly set. He leaned for
ward, his hands behind him and his
shoulders hunched, precisely like a
man steeling himself for a plunge
into cold water.
On the third stroke of the officers
sword the rifles cracked as one. The
body leaped as though released from
a great tension, and then reeled to

LOAN DECREASE
FAILS TO STOP
LIST REACTION
Sentiment Remains BeariSh
4 Due to Bethlehem Steel
Reports.
Average Stock Prices

Average of twenty industrials Thurs
day was 1896, of 80. Average OF tWen-
ty rails was 1928 off IS. Average Of
forty bonds was 98.72, up .05.
NEW YORK, Oct. pa decrease
in brokerage loans of more than
$40, 100000 failed to prevent a drastic
reaction on the stock market today.
Sentiment was still bearish due to
the adverse report of Bethlehem
Steel Corporation and to the de-
creaSes being registered in railroad
and corporate earnings.
The day began with prices steady
to firm but heavy offerings of Gen
eral Motors following break in
United States Steel and Bethlehem
unsettled the list and caused a gen.
eral reaction.
Du POnt Down
Lower earnings reported by Du
Pont brought that issue down 10
points. Atchison, which registered
a heavy drop in net income for Sep
TENDER was also off radically, while
other rails broke in proportion.
Insurance stocks and some of the
baking issues held up through the
selling, as did few speeialties.
Wall Street was frankly disap-
pointed over the market responses
to the decrease of 100000 in brokers
loans reported in the weekly state
ment given out after Thursdays
close.
Stock Liquidation
This substantial decrease allowed
considerable enthusiasm in specu-
lative circles. Coming at a time
when bond offerings were at the
highest levels of the year, it was
as particularly significant
evidence of stock liquidation, which
must have reached large proper
tons to so far outweigh the in
crease in borrowings on bond col
lateral.
This line of thought brought &C
tive short covering and good buy
ing in the early dealings. But
large offerings took advantage of the
price improvement which this
brought about.
When it was seen the market
would not rally on the loan de-
crease, aggressive professional OPP
erations for the decline were re-
Sumed.

Big Contest
Second Annual 0ne-ACt
Play Tournament Is
Announced.

The second annual Little Theatre
High School one-act play tourna-
ment will be held at the Playhouse,
Nineteenth and Alabama Sts., Indl-
annapolis, on Dec. 16 and II, 1927.
This years tournament will be
conducted much along the same
lines as was the tournament of last
year.
Three one-act plays will be pre-
sented at each session. Three
Judges will witness these produc-
lions and select the best play &C
cording to a standard set as fol-
lows:
so per cent for presentation.
(Meaning, Interpretation or how
we'll the idea of the play is gotten
over.")
Is per cent for acting.
Is per cent for direction.
10 per cent for selection.
When all of the contesting pro-
auctions have been presented the
Judges will award the following
prizes:
The Little Theatre cup to the best
presentation of a one-act play.
Other prizes will be awarded for the
next best presentation.
Girl displaying most talent.
Boy displaying most talent.
The following rules will govern the
tournament:
The contest is open to all COM
missioned high schools in the State
of Indiana. Players must be quail
fled as high school students and may
not have been posting more than
one semester.
An entrance fee of SIS will be
charged each group. Registrations
will be entered in the order in which
they are received. Only fifteen
groups can be accommodated in the
tournament. Entrance fee, regis
tration blanks and all scene, prop
erty and light plots must be in the
hands of the tournament director
not later than Dec. l, 1927.
Scenery and ordinary property and
lighting effects will be furnished by
the Little Theater. Special effects
and properties may be arranged for
if the matter is taken up with the
tournament director.
The program will be made up by a
committee of which George Somnes,
director of the Little Theater, is
chairman, with due consideration of
a well-balanced bill. This commit
tee will be supplied with the names
of the plays only and not with the
name of the school making the pre-
sentation, so that its judgment will
be influenced by nothing except to
arrange a bill that will have variety
and make an interesting program.
Each group will be allowed suf-
f1cient time for complete accuracy
and property rehearsal. Ample time
will be allowed for the actors to
gauge their voices and become
otherwise familiar with the stage.
The same play cannot be used by
two competing schools during the
contest. The group first submitting
the name of play will have the
exclusive use of that play during the
tournament.

"THE COCOANUTS" TO

Irving Berlin, who wrote the
music and lyrics of 1.-THE Cocoa

sell into the millions. He has, his
own music publishing business to
take care of the extraordinary sale
of his songs.
Loud and chaotic is the humor of

it's accumulative effect. There is no
gentle satire, but singing and
mordant and fairly bitter in it's con-
tempt for the stupidities of Ameri-
can commercial life. But so clever

Brothers comedians, that the robust
humor is paramount, and the
audience is heartily laughing at it.
