''The Word of Our God Shall Stand
Forever"


DIR. James McHenry, the second
president of the Baltimore Bible
Society, filled a very large place in
the affairs of the young nation for
whose establishment he was in no
small measure responsible. He not
only fought through the Revolution
airy War as a members of General
Washington's staff, but later served
as Secretary Of War in Washington's
cabinet. 1t was due to representa-
tions made by him that the old fort
which bears his name, was built for
the defense of Baltimore, in the first
place as protection from the French,
who were on the point of declaring
war against the United States at the
close of the 10Th century.
America can never forget that it
was over this old fort that the star
spangled banner waved, while Fran
els Scott Key strained to catch a
glimpse of it's starry folds from the
deck of British man o'war. He thus
gave to immortal verse the anguished
questioning of his soul:
"Oh, say can you see, by the dawn's
early light
What so proudly we hailed at the
twilight's last cleaning,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars,
through the perilous fight,
Ger the ramparts we watched, were
so CALAMITY streaming?
And the rockets red glare,
The bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night
That our flag was still there.
Oh, say, does that star spangled BAN
ner yet wave
Ger the land of the free and the
home of the brave?
Had not DR.. McHenry's knowledge
of military strategy and his preset
ence of impending danger prompted
the building of that fort, the story of
the bombardment of Baltimore by
the British in 1841 might have been
vastly different.
DR.. McHenry's craftsmanship in
handling the affairs of the Baltimore
Bible Society is no less apparent than
in his wise management of cabinet
matters. He was deeply concerned
lest the name Baltimore Bible So
ciety" might seem to limit the acti-
vities of the organization, that he
carefully stated in a public address
his conviction upon that subject. Said
he, eve should fail in respect to, and
belle our confidence in the rest of our
fellow citizens, did we confine this ap-

peal (for Bible distribution) to the
limits of Baltimore. We think we can
rely on the character of the State,
and fiatter ourselves that tenderness
and humanity will be equally mani
Tested, wherever the knowledge of our
undertaking shall reach. There are
within its boundaries alone, multi
tudes of poor and INDECENT persons
who are without Bibles. Such sub
jects are found in every country
where there are men. We all, there
fore, upon the rich and all whose
circumstances admit of their promot-
ing this undertaking; in the words of
Moses addressed to the Israelites,
open thy hand unto thy brother, to
the poor, and to the needy, in thy
land Open thy hand to procure
for thy poor and needy, the only
books which can teach them patience
and resignation, and enable them to
envisage without envy or heartburn
ing, the various bounties of the crea-
ton enjoyed by others, while they are
doomed to linger out life in labour,
pain and sorrow" And all this-not
because this patriot believed with
Karl Marx that religion is the opin-
ion of the peaple, but rather the life
of God in the soul of man.

Saturday for the annual meeting
and picnic given by the Imperial
Valley Pioneer association.

test went to the BraWley set second
honors to the Imperial-CaleXico
set. This feature of the program
was greatly enjoyed by spectators
as well as participants in the dane
ing in vogue during early years OF
valley settlement.
The horned toad race proved to
be a financial success not SO much
because of the speed of the toads
but due to the salesmanship Of
Toad Manager A. Y. Preble. The
manager sold some of the toads to
handlers and managers six times.
Neither pioneers nor toadS regis
tered any objection to this type OF
high finance as it enriched the
Golfers of the association.
r. D. McPherrin was elected pres
ident of the association, George l..
Campbell reelected first vice-pres-
ident and H. A. Hastain elected
second vice-president.
The executive committee is COM

bers not yet supplied if funds III

These buttons are property of the
association, it was explained, made
with permanent record of each
pioneer. They are intended to be
used upon meeting days for pur-
poses of Identification and should
be left with the secretary. The
button will be placed upon the per

the member.

Plenty Of Fun
In Girl Crazy

Comedy and plenty of it, is the
offering Of Girl Crazy" which will
be shown for the last times to-
night at Fox Imperial theatre with
an all star cast headed by the ia
nous funny team Of Wheeler and
Woolsey.
There is q very sketchy plot of
a playboy sent west to get away
from the ladies, only to turn an
Arizona cowtown ranch into a dude
affair with all the attractions of
Broadway, but the play needs little
after the comedians get started.
Eddie Quillan is the playboy who
causes the commotion- but Wheeler
and Woolsey take care of the
laughs. Sharing honors with them
is Mitzi Green, the diIninutiye ~
medienne, who gives several of her
famous representations, much to the
delight of the audience.
Dorothy Lee, Kitty Kelley, Airline
Judge and others help along the
show, and there is some splendid
music by George Gershwin.
Girl Crazy is not to be taken
seriously but for those who want
plenty of chuckles it offers much.
An exceptionally interesting Eng
lish film, depicting the rescue of
a crew from a sunken submarine, is
shown as a feature attraction. 1t is
dramatic and instructive without
being morbid and its realism is ex-
ceptional.

BURGO0 KING TO
Be ENTERED IN
PREAKNESS RACE
BY GEORGE KIRKSEY
United Press Staff Correspondent

LOUISVILLE, KY, May Bur
goo King, the horse who drew his
name from the broth of the blue
grass country, today had niche
in the turf's hall of fame and a
flying start toward the 3-year-old
championship of 1882.
Winning as he pleased in fly
ing dash down the stretch, Burgoo
King Saturday won the So tn Ken
lucky Derby, gave Col. E. R. Brad
ley of Lexington. KY, and Palm
Beach, Fla. his third Derby tri-
umph, and became the second son
of a derby winner ever to follow
in the wake of his daddy.
Colonel Bradley, master of the
Idle Hour farm, had seen his green
and white silks twice run one-two
prior to the 1882 Derby This time
they ran first and last, making
Colonel Bradley the first owner
ever to win three Derbies.
Brother Joe, his other entry, fin
ished nineteenth in a field Of 20,
which was the equivalent Of last
place, inasmuch as Liberty Limited,
the three DIS entry, broke down in
the back stretch and did not Off
cially finish.
Burgoo King, son of Bubbling
Over, 1926 Derby winner, won by
five lengths, running the mile and
a quarter in 2 minutes, 1s seconds,
slow time in comparison to Twenty
Grands Derby record of POI AS
last year. but considerably above
the average speed made since the
Derby distance was reduced from a
mile and a half to a mile and a
quarter in 1896.
Until Burgoo King flashed over
the line first, the only other son
of Derby winner TO repeat his
sire's triumph was Alan-a-Dale,
1902 winner whose daddy was Hal
ma 1885 champion.
Burgoo King was shipped with
other horses from Colonel Brad
ley's stables to Belmont park, and
If he works we'll in training he
probably will be shipped to Pimlico
TO run Saturday in the Preakness,

SPORTS PARADE
OFFERS VARIETY
IN TODAY'S NEWS
BY HENRY McLEMORE
United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, May 9-You may
take off your flannels with safety
now. There1l be no more cold
weather.
For James Joy Johnston and his
man Friday, Walter st. Denis
of the 0000-words- ds-about-nothing-
st. Denises, have turned on the
"heat" for the battle of the sunken
gardens. They pulled the switch
that sent the warm draughts OF
ballyhooing circulating through the
country upon the arrival of Max
Schmeling today Herr Max has
ended his exhibition tour-so-called
because the customers gave
splendid exhibition of disregard
and will barge into his training
camp in Kingston, N. Y, on
Wednesday.
Barge, perhaps, is not the right
word. For according to the line
of march contained in st. Denis
latest bulletin from headquarters,
the champion is going into King
ston as King George never went
to open parliament. l mean he's
going with a flourish. A grand
flourish.
Schmeling's party, which prob
ably will include everybody within
a mile radius of the Garden that
wears a tie, will set sail for King
ston bright and early on Wednes-
day. The party will travel in lux
urious limousines rented by the
Garden by the hour, and chauffeur
equipped.
The cayalcade will proceed up
the Hudson to Kingston, where, on
the outskirts of the village, it will
be greeted by the lord high mayor,
the lord high mayors first cousin,
and three or four carloads Of Lions,
Rotaries, chamber OF commences,
butchers, bankers, plumbers and
out-and-out loafers.
Boom! Boom! Boom! That's
three of the 2l-gun booms that
will be fired in the champions
honor. All of the greeting rigma-
role completed, The party, which
will probably number tens OF
thousands by now. will proceed to
the center of town where the sheep
will be separated from the goats.
The sheep, or the favored ones,
will proceed to Greenkill lodge,
Schmeling's headquarters, where,
according to a last-minute bulle-
tin from Brother st. Denis, a tre-
mendous meal will be served by
the proprietors, Cohen and Miltzer.
There will be buttermilk for all,
and ginger ale to mix it with, or
mix with it. Or anyway, to fix
it up.
The plans for Schmeling's re-
ception at Kingston prove that
Johnston is making rapid progress
as a promoter He's getting smarter
by the minute The idea of hav-
ing an improsing cavalcade roll out
of New York was clever. The
greeting at the city limits of King
ston was a ten-strike. And the
idea of having Messrs. Cohen and
Miltzer spread that free dunch was
sheer genius.
