Greta Garbo as being the great

band-getting high scores, never
snaked in her life. Neither did the
siren LYDIA Roberti. LYDIA wriggles

SACRAMENTO, May 4. WP)-
Mrs. c. H. Turner. Redondo Beach,
headed the California Congress OF
Parents and Teachers today after
a spirited contest for the presiden-
cy at the annual convention here.
She defeated Mrs. James K.
Lytle, Los Angeles, 974 to 948, in
one of the closest elections the Or
ganization has held.
Results of the poll were not
known until nearly midnight, due
to a delay in the start of the elec-
ton and closeness of the contest.
When the polls opened three hours
later than scheduled, angry charges
of irregularities were hurled on the
convention floor. The delay was
caused by failure of the ballots to
arrive.
Interest in the election was so
intense that a large percentage OF
the 5000 delegates remained in the
auditorium until the vote was
counted

LOCAL METHODIST
CHURCH HISTORY
OF MUCH INTEREST

Something of the history of the
local Methodist Episcopal church,
which has been in existence nearly
80 years will be of interest to many
since the reopening of the church
in its new site is to take place on
Sunday.
The society was organized in the
winter of 1867 and the deed to
the lot on Sixth and Commercial
streets was secured on March II,
1907.
Of the Is charter members the
only one now living in Ell Centre
is Ed Royce.
The church was built and dedi-
Gated in l911-12 under the pastorate
of Rev. Oliver Saylor. In 1916 the
Silsbee congregation united with
that of El Centro and in 192O-21,
when Rev. A. w. Shamel was pas
tor, the social hall was built.
In 1884, by means of a trade with
Elmer A Todd, the two lots on
Eighth and Olive were secured and
the social hall was moved to the
new site on February 26, the church
being moved on March IT.
During the month of March serv-
ices were held in the Wilson school,
and with the exception of the East
er service, have since been held in
the social hall.
The following have served the
church as pastors: o. L. Shaw,
1907; DeKalb Burnham, 1908; Oil
yer Saylor, 1910; A. L. Baker, 1913;
H. B. Clark, 1915; E. A. Palmer
1917; A. w. Shamel, 1920; Arthur
Schultz, 1921; Harold E. Baker, son
of A. L. Baker, 1928; w. E. Malan,
1890.
Sunday, May 6, reopening of the
church will take place and a spe-
cial service is planned. All men,
bers of the congregat lion have beer
asked to attend the morning Wor-
ship hour and those of the valley
Methodist churches have been askec
to join the local congregation in the
evening worship.
