Note where AL Whipple has sent
a wire to Grover Cleveland Alex
ander, former Chicago, Philadelphia
and st. Louis pitcher, asking him
to join the Internationals. It is our
opinion that Whipple is wasting his
time and could spend it to a better
advantage wiring for other talent.
If Alexander is still good pitcher
the House of David, with whom he
is now playing, will retain him and
pay him much more than Nogales
could afford. Whipple has been
strong on seeking publicity this
year. What the team needs in place
of publicity is good infield if No

belief that he did this simply to
teach humility.
The feet washing and commun.
ion practices started soon after
the organization of the Thornton
church about 1900. The call goes
out several days before the SER

cation is asked to prepare the
bread. A man obtains the wine.
Another woman, sometimes two.
bring the towels and soap and
basins.
The men line up on a side of the
church, and the women on the
other. As the sermon starts, the
congregation sings Brethren We
Are Met Again. Women wash
womenS' feet and men perform the
service for men. 1t is a request
favor, too. People are given the
privilege Of saying for whom they
will humble themselves. and the

the gesture.

MAYKING. Ky.,-In this reck-
less age, with It's ever-increasing
crime, organized gangs and easy
virtue, many believe that the
goodness, humility and brotherly
love that Christ taught are on the
wane.
But in this tiny village, in the
Kentucky hills. there lives a group
OF simple, pious folk who still
cling TO the belief that he is great
er who serves well his neighbors,
even to the humble task OF wash
ing another's feet.
Members Of the Thornton Bap-
fist church at Mayking still obey
the letter Of the command laid
down by Christ 1000 years ago
when he said: IF 1 then, your
Lord and Master, have washed
your feet, We also ought to wash
one another's feet"
When Christ called his disciples
to him for the Last Supper, the
night before he was crucified, the
Scripture says he took bread and
broke 1t, and then some wine
from the eastern vineyards. ex-
planning that the bread represented
his broken body and the wine his
blood.
This do in remembrance OF
me- he said. and most religious
bodies still observe the command
Of holy communion.
Christ also took a towel and
basin and washed his discinles
feet. Some OF them objected fol-
it was such a lowly service, usu-

MEET At HOOPER'S ISLAND
Fishing Industry on Island Aver
age S75O,OOO Per Year

More than 100 interested bust
ness men and residents Of Hooper's
Island attended a hearing held
Wednesday afternoon by Lieut-Col.
Warren T. Hannum and Lieut-Col-
John S. Doyle for the purpose of
receiving information which would
warrant a preliminary survey in
the matter of waterway improve
ment at Barren Island Gaps, Tar
Bay-Honga River. Evidence that
the Improvement would be Of de-
cided value not only to Hoopers
Island but also to the central and
lower section of the Peninsula be-
cause of it making possible an in
land waterway south to the mouth
of the Bay, as well as forming
harbor of sufficient depth to ac-
commodate practically any vessels
using the Bay, in case of storm,
was introduced. Among the inter
esting facts developing at the
hearing were figures presented by
Mr.. S. H. Applegarth and Ernest
E. Wiley, the latter Of the Eastern
Shore Trust Company, showing
that the fishing industry On the
island averaged S75O,O0O00 per
wear under normal conditions and
with both sides of the bay shore
considered would reach from one
4 and one-half to two million dollars
per annum. Al number of promin-
ent boat captains were present and
explained in detail to the u. S.Dis-
trict Engineers the present diff
culties experienced as well as
pointing out the decided benefit
which would be derived if the i'm
provement is made. With approx
imately 1900 residents on the ISL
and present conditions prevent
shipment of bulk cargoes by boat
and thereby necessitate additional
charges ranging from $3.50 to So
per ton when brought in by truck.
It was also emphasized that the
fishing industry as it now exists
could be rapidly built up if the
dredging requested, opening a
proper channel, could be brought
about Facts and figures on this
phase indicate a very substantial
development. A statement by a
representative of the Baltimore
and Virginia Steamboat Company
was to the effect that daily boat
service would be given if the chan
mel We're deepened and this in it
self was accepted as being of de-
cided value not only to the island
but the immediate territory. In
addition to the residents present,
Edwin c. Totten, Executive Secre-
tary of the Del-Mar-Va Eastern
Shore Association, and VIM. T.
Medford, of the Baltimore Associa-
ton of Commerce, were present
and gave assurance that their re-
spective organizations would in
dorse and assist in any improve
ment which might be beneficial to
the communities concerned. Let
ters from Congressman T. Alan
Goldsborough and United States
Senator Millard =. Tydings were
also received promising coopera-
ton and support in the requested
improvement and approval was ex-
pressed through the Del-Mar-Va
