LEST WE FORGET

Oxygen is absolutely essential to
human life. Let the supply of oxy-
gen be diminished, and the health
suffers accordingly. There is no
danger of an over-supply OF oxygen
from the air about US.
Oxygen is stimulant-tonic. Pure
oxygen gas is destroyer, and is
not met with, save in the labora-
tory. 1t is a supporter of combus-
tion-a steel watch-spring will burn
in it, as a pine splinter will burn in
the air. Oxygen burns up lmpurl-
ties in the blood, reaching them
through our lungs.
Oxygen in proper dilution with
nitrogen. makes up the air we
breathe.s Our "bounden duty is to
get plenty of pure air-we are In
little danger of getting an over
dose.
If you aye in the habit Of lying
in bed until nine o'clock these
mornings, you are not getting the
health-giving supply Of oxygen that
you must have If you would be
vigorous. The habit of lying in
bed until long after sunrise, is per-
nicious in the extreme. That de-
bauch dinner that you devoured at
six o'clock the evening before, and
which you should not have taken
at all, gave up at least fifty per
cent of deadening impurities. You
felt dull, apathetic, and appetite
less, when you crawled out OF bed
at nine in the morning; you were
simply poisoued. and-did 1t your
sell; if a physician tried to poison
you, you'd want to thrash him II
not more. You prefer to commit
your own suicidel
Nitrogen deadens. You consume
an overdose of heterogeneous foods
its effect is certain. You take
away the nitrogen excess with oxy--
gen, derived from both air and
water-for water is one-third oxy--

Good picture-framing is a new
art which has much to do with the
increased popular appreciation OF
pictures, and the fact that pictures
seem to have new beauty in our
eyes.
1t has been discovered that the
best way to bring out all that -
lovely in a picture is to have It
properly framed. One that seems
dull may only need the right frame
to bring it back to favor-perhaps
a lighter, more colorful frame,
toned to its colors, instead OF the
old, dull, heavy frame. Before dis
carding picture that seems to
have no charm, TRY on q more
becoming frame, and see what q
difference there will be.

BISHOP OUTLINES
PRAYER BOOK ISSUE
British PreIate Discusses The
Rejection of Revised Ver-
sion by Parliament.
NJ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
CHELTENHAM, England, october 3,
The Right Rev. Arthur c. Headlam,
Bishop of Gloucester, believes that the
only solutions to the problem arising
from the House of Commons rejection
of the revised prayer book are either
disestablishment OF the Church Of Eng
land or parliamentary enactment giving
the church spiritual independence.
The bishop. speaking as president OF
the annual church congress, said he
would seriously regret diseStablishment.
His other solution would be along the
lines Of the Church of Scotland act of
1921. which give that church full spirit
ual independence.
He also referred to the question of
reunion of the churches and explained
why Catholics were not invited to the
congress. OF this he said: "As long
as the Pope and English Roman Catho-
lies adopt their present unfriendly at
titude toward other Christians it will
be difficult for those Roman Catholics,
who would gladly do SO, to confer with
u.s."
In alluding to the papal encyclical
that stated that a union of Christians
could only come by return of the
u1oSClllIlk w JlAC OlAShloA NLluAN4L Va
Rome, the bishop said:
"A pronouncement like that is sign
of the weakness of the Popes position.
There are many members of the Roman
church in all countries who are dis
satisfied with the tyranny of the italian
Curia and resent its intolerant attitude
toward modern thought. I believe there
are movements of thought in the Church
Of Rome which even its discipline won't
be able to restrain"
Three main schools of thought in the
Church of England were eXpounded in
separate sermons.
The Right Rev. Charles Gore. who re-
signed as Bishop of oxford in 1919. ad-
dressing high churchmen, warned eX
&remiists among the anglo-Catholics as
well as those in other schools of thought
The Right Rev. F. S. Guy Warman,
Bishop of Chelmsford, told low church
men that fear complex" was actuat-
ing Evangelicals as well as anglo-Catho-
lies and that both feared the modernist
viewpoint.
Broad view" churchmen listened to
0 warning from the Right Rev. Herbert
Hensley Henson Bishop of Durham that
the nation was living on an inherited
capital of Christian morality, which
was steadily wasting away.

TAXICA8 RIVALRY SUIT
DISMISSED IN COURT
Driver and President of Company
Cleared of Charges of Soliciting
Trade on Street.

Competition between rival taxi compa-
MES led to the trial yesterday in Police
Court of William Beckerdyke, Yellow
taxicab driver, and William Brown, pres
1dent of the company, on charges Of So
liciting trade on the street without
license, preferred by members of the In
dependent Taxi Owners Association
operators of Diamond taxicabs. Both
defendants were acquitted without TAX
ing the stand in their own behalf when
Judge Gus A Schuldt ruled that the
Government had failed TO prove its case.
The testimony showed that Beckerdyke
had obtained Harry Sumpman, Diamond
cab driver, as passenger in his cab at
the Raleigh Hotel on September ii and
driven him around the city. c. v. Spar
row and D. J. Spsulding, other Diamond
cab operators, testified that they saw
him get in the Yellow cab. They failed
10 prove conclusively. however, that
Beckerdyke did not have a license or
that Brown was the president of the
company. Judge Schuldt decided in dis
missing the case.
