Credit Given to
Where Credits Due

In our report of the P. T. A. meet
ing of last week we committed and
unspeakable error-at least it was
an error of that magnitude if we are
to guage it by the ado concerning it
that has come from several men in
this town. The error concerned the
refreshments served at the gather
ing. They were prepared as well as
served by the menfolks-not by the
women as we stated last week. Inas-
much as there have been no subse-
quent reports of violent indigestion,
we deem it an unusual circumstance
worthy Of especial mention.

 Important troop movements were in progress, both in the U. s. s. R., and by the provincial and Chinese governments, although there was nothing to indicate there had been an actual outbreak of fighting be- tween the rival armies other than minor border clashes.
 Chinese sources maintained they had information of an imepending Russian advance in strength, with the plan of battle given as advance on Pogranichnaya from two sides after which Harbin would be taken. with Soviet gunboats advancing down the Sungari river to aid in the fighting.

New York. Aug. 23 Py-Faced with prosecution for practicing medicine without a license in his now defunct health education so- ciety, Rev. Dr. James Empringham today asked Bishop William T. Man ming of the Episcopal church to re- iieve him of holy orders.
 In a letter which he addressed to Bishop Manning from California, Dr. Empringham attacked Chris- tianlty as interpreted by the bishop aa a preposterous lie and a curse and declared he lost faith in the creed of the church 15 years ago.
 He also assailed Bishop ManninG's stand against divorce and remar- riage. Dr. Empringham was re- gently divorced in Reno and has remarried.
 The letter said Empringham's stand against prohibition as na- tional secretary of the Church Ten~ perance league had made him a thorn in the side of the bishop and other good men and was one of the reasons for his resigning his Chris tian commission.
 Denies Accusations
 He denied that he had practiced medicine in his health education society and asserted that tue charges against him were fostered by some of a dozen surgeons he had discharged from the service of the society. He said he was coming to New York to face his accusers.
 The letter also denied that he had gone to California 10 avoid payment of rent on quarters leased for the health society, but said he went there on advice of physicians because he was suffering from heart disease.
 Bishop Manning is in Maine on vacation. At his office it was said Dr. Empringham's letter would be forwarded to him.
 Charges Brought By City
 The charges against Empringham, which were brought by the city health department, include both practice of medicine without li-
