FUNDAMENTALIST AND
 FLOCK ARE EXPELLED
Toronto Baptists Bar Rev. T. T Shields and His Congregation
 After Bitter Debate.

Toronto. Oct. 15.--(Pl-The Jarvis street Baptist church of Toronto, Of which. the Rev. T. T. Shields is pas tor, was expelled from the Baptist Union of Ontario yesterday after a long and bitter debate at the con- vcntion of the Baptist Unions of On- tario and Quebec. The vote on the resolution of expulsion was 532 to 217
 Dr. Shields, a Fundamentalist, was allowed to address the convention, and he declared against the 'inroads Of Modernism into the church. He asserted that Prof. l.. T. Marshall of McMastcr University had rejected the doctrine of the Atonement, and exclaimed; q am quite willing to shake off the dust of this conven- ton from my feet as testimony against those who have taken up arms against me"
 Today's decision was foreshadow- cd yesterday when the convention indorsed a parliamentary bill giving delegates power 10 exclude non-co- operative Churchcs. After the vote had been announced Dr. Shields and his followers left the convention hall to meet in their oYn church.
 The dispute between pr. Shields and the Ontario Convention began many years ago when, as a member of the board of governors Of Me Master University, he opposed a staff appointment on the ground that the candidate was not orthodox in his teachings.

than. regular troops. The Northern Alliance, he said. consequently dld not regard their movements serlous- lv. Even If some of these irregulars should appear near the walls Of Peking, and firing should be heard in the city, he continued, there would be no cause for fear since the Northerners had ample forces to round them up.
 Severe fighting has been going on between the Northern forces and the Nationalists in the Province of Honan. but reports here indicate somewhat slow advance of Shantung (Northern) troops along the Lung hai railway.

R0UT SHANSI ARMY, l. IS NORTHERN CLAIM
Main Forces Driving On PekinS
 Are Crushed

Pcking, Oct 15 tP) - The main Shansi armies, which have been driving on Picking, have been crush cd, but scattered bands are still in the tield-some only twenty miles away-with northern forces close at thclr heels, a spokesman for the northern alliance stated.
 This spokesman declared that the northorners deliberately drew the main Shansi army of S0.000 men almost to Paotingfu, S5 miles south west of Picking, and then sent the northern army by way of Anchow toward Paotingchow GO miles south of paotingfD to cut off their re- treat. Most of the Shansi force was forced to abandon the pcking- Han kow railway and flee southwcstward toward their native province Of Shansi.
 The latest message from Chang Hsuch Liang, son of Marshal Chang Tso Lin, stated that his troops were about to enter Chengtingfn, 70 miles south of paotingfu. but contrary to previous reports the Shansi forces still hold the important railway junction of Chentow near Chcntine- flu. The northern spokesman said the fall of this latter place was cX- . pected hourly.
 Snow Fall Delays Operations Operations on the northern front i have been delayed unexpectedly by an early heavy snow fall, but fight ing has been going on at Isaikow- | pu, the northcrners advancing west ward, causing the Shansi army to cvacuate the important trading city of Kalgan.
 The Shansi leaders evidently had made elaborate plans to capture Picking. the spokesman said. Apart from the two main armies. two di- visions were detailed 10 advance along the mountain roads and cut communications. This plan failed largely because of the rapidity of the northern victory against the main Shansi armies.
 Several of these raids have been stopped, notably in the western hills 20 miles from p"king, where one Shansi regiment was dis&rmcd. A stronger Shansi force took ChockoN only 3S miles south Of Picking, but were driven out by northern troops.
 Raiders arc Kept Scattered
 The Northern spoke orman said similar raids near Picking were cN- pcctcd, but that the raiders were un- able to keep in contact with each other and were more like bandits

C0SMETICIANS MEET
Beauty Parlor Heads Determined to Keep the Marcel Waving in Spite of Barbers' Protests.

Cleveland, Ohio. Aug. 27 P-De- termined to keep the marcel waving in spite of barbers approximately 5000 members of the National Hair dressers' association opened their an- nual convention here today with sev- eral things besides the technique of their trade in mind.
 Chief among the matters to re- ceive attention is a possible fight against movements in some states to restrict hair cutting to barber shops. The hair dressers assert that the shears are an important lmple- ment in making milady attractive and they do not propose to lay theirs aside without protest.
 Also slated for serious discussion is the subject of law proposed in several states governing the use of cosmetics. The hairdressers declare that as a result of publicity given to unhealthful beauty aids, certain legislatures have been asked to pass drastic rules which would rule out many harmless preparations. The convention intends to insist that the laws be restricted. to banning harm- full ingredients.
 The gathering will close next Thursday with a style show.
