AUTUMN BRINGS
 FOX HUNTING TO FAMED MONETARY
Royalty Expected to Take Part in Sport This
 Season

Melton Mowbray. EnglandUP) Whatever autumn means to the rest of the world, to> Melton Now bray. in the heart of the finest fox hunting country in Great Britain, it means the echo of baying hounds and the thud of horses hoofs.
 For 12 years it also has meant the arrival of the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Gloucester. But this year the duke has decided to rent his hunting stable for the sea son. His decision undoubtedly means that he will not participate in the sport this year.
 Wales Hires Mounts
 The prince (who always stays at Craven Lodge). disposed of his hunting stable there years ago. He now hires horses from the Re- mount department, as does the Duke of York.
 Wales took up hunting here in 1920, and many has been the time when he appeared on the station platform, spattered with mud. just in time to catch the express back to London for some important function. He Is an enthusiastic and daring hunter, and Great Britain long since has ceased to laugh at his falls from the saddle.
 No Falls Recently
 For one thing, Wales hasn't had any falls recently (some say he has been prevailed upon to be more careful of his royal neck) {, and. for another thing. he has proved that he is as couragcous and as persistent as any hunter in Britain.

REPORT STATES
 FOREIGN AID 8
 HURTS MISSIONS
Subsidies From Home Churches Chased
 As Evil

New York-The seventh install ment of the Laymcn's Foreign Mis- ; sion Inquiry reports on the subsi- dization of Christian churches by home parishes in the foreign mis- sions field.
 The board, after two years of in- auiry, found that payment of for eign subsidies had introduced ar element of commercialism into mission work that brought weak ness in the life and morale of the mission field. ! It found that only one-third of the churches in China and Japan are self-supporting. The percen- tage of self-supporting churches in India even is smaller.
 Tho Report
 The report declared;
 More and more in the future the church in millionary lands will become indigenous in the proper sense of the word, as 1t certainly should be, and that will mean that it will not be financed with foreign money. or conducted for foreign workers, or projected and pat termed on il foreign made ecclcsias- tical system. It must become 2 living organism rather than the copy of structural pattern.
 Free FunctiOning
 "It must express in it's own life- forms the free functiOning Of the Christian spirit. That means that it must not be afraid to change it's stemporal form or to outgrow the speculiar features stamped upon 1t by the dominant personalities who nurtuned it.
 'Tt should become in the truest sense the living expression of the ideals and principles of Christ. and these ideals and principles should control its entire life.
