Church there. Addressing dele
gates to the annual meeting of the
Erie conference here, the Rev. L.

"I'm tired of hearing ROOse-

has attended church but three
times. If he ever comes to my
town he can't get into the pulpit
of my church."

Nature laid down on mans aspira-

Lack of wind forced an auto
matte one-day postponement when
a sailing breeze failed to make by
1:20 p. m. (E. S. To, and under
the rules of the international con-

Waits In Vain
For almost two hours the chal-

around the starting line, canvas

But vagrant southwest breeze,
which for a time gave promise OF
making a sailing wind, died and
both Rainbow and Endeavour lay

The race committee, hosting a
postponement flag at 1915 a. M,
signalling a quarter of an hour

the last minute permissible under
the rules before ordering the post
