One never knows
How far a word of kindess goes;
One never sees
How far a smile of friendship fees.
Down through the years
The deed forgotten reappears,
We cannot say
What lips are praising us today;
We cannot tell
Whose prayers ask God to guard
us well.
But kindness lives
Beyond the memory of him who

 NEW YORK C|TY
WORKING ON THEORY WAR IS OVER RICE LIQUOR TRADE
 OR OPIUM

NEW YORK, Aug, 6, (P-The prospects of one of the bloodieSG tong wars in years is seen by the additional killings in this city and Boston, bringing the number of dead to five in two days with tlIe addition of several wounded. A few hours after United States Attorney Charles Futile and the Chinese Consul General had warn ed tong leaders that no violence would be tolerated, pending a peace conference, a Harlem laundryman was shot and killed at his ironing board. Similarly two Chinese were shot and killed within few hours after tong leaders had assured the Boston police that there would be no tong warfare in that city.
 The police said it is the first time tong leaders have deliberately deceived them and expressd a be- lief tha the killings will result in the blcodiest tong war ever seen in New England.
 Tn Chicago and Newark tense quiet prevailed after one death in each city Sunday. The cause re- 'mained a mystery to the New York police who are working on the theory that it might be over the rice liquor trade which, it is said, has become profitable with the de- teriorating quality of other bootleg liquor. At Newark it was thought the war was over opium

ENGLAND SHOULD SUSPEND WORK
 FIVE CRUISERS
NO REASON ADDITIONAL OB- STACLES SHOULD BE PUT IN
 PATH SEA GROWTH

NEW YORK, Aug. 6, R) II
 There is no authority under ex- isting law for the suspension of cruiser construction, but on the trary there is every reason why we should not at this time do anything that will further sub merge the American position on the high seas," said Represen- tative Fred A. Britten, chairman of the house committee on naval affairs, as he was about to sail on the Leviathan.
 The language in the cruiser bill under which President Hoover is now Suspending ship construction was inserted by congress in order to make positive the laying down Of 15 cruisers within three years and any default in appropriation in the 1928-1929 year could be made up in 1880. This provision was deliberately inserted in the bill because of President Coolidge's known opposition to any time limit being placed on cruiser con- Struction. Many members of con- gress thought that the Coolidge plan would provide only a navy Of blue prints, and therefore in sisted on the language which President Hoover is now peculiarly Interpreting to obstruct ship building. If Ramsey Macdonald will suspend construction on the five big first line cruisers England is now building they will be lead ing the way to real naval dis arment."

tendency after having served thir-
teen years. James Bell Gilchrist
was elected to succeed him.
Following the election Of the new
superintendent there came a period
OF prosperity for the school. The
increased population of the COM
munity, the realization that the
school had passed the experimental
stage and the backing of favorable
sentiment contributed to the growth.
Mr.. Gilchrist manifested fervency
and wisdom of plans that soon
showed results. He regarded the
work of his predecessors as a COM
mission to go forward. Thus in 1880
the school numbered 160 members.
Directly from the school there were
added to the church roll seventy
three members besides heads of
families and others who were
brought into the church by other
agencies. He and Mrs. Gilchrist,
who was a teacher in the school,
continued their labors thirty-nine
years or until November, 1914, when
he died at the age of seventy-six
years. He labored for well-earn-
ed rest.
"The work was taken up by Sam
uel c. Evans, Jr., who became the
second in length of service as su-
perintendent. He faced strenuous
days and solved difficult problems.
During his administration there oc-
Cured the War with all of its dis
turbance of conditions and demand
for re-arrangements. In addition
there was laid upon him variety of
church duties. AS elder, trustee,
organist, Sunday school superinten-
dent, and his own personal busi-
ness, there devolved upon him a re-
sponsibility seldom carried by an
officer of any church. To this was
added the emergency of the passing
of Rev. H. L. Bunstein. Then it was
that the church looked to Mr.. Evans
as a guide and advocate. His part in
maintaining the whole church or
ganization by wise choice of meth
DDS and means, the reviving of flick
ering hopes and the manifestation of
an answering confidence in ulti-
mate achievement is more than can
be estimated.
"No one had better reason for
sharing such responsibilities. Thus
last April he relinquished the super
by declining reelection
when the school showed a record of
six officers, twelve teachers and an
enrolment Of III.
as. Willis Hammond became the
choice as superinten-
dent. Already there has been seen
evidence that the prosperity and
wisdom of the past is not only to be
but it is to be increased.
