Episcopal district at the recent
Bishops Council in Jackson. Miss,
was blamed on st. Paul's Church
in Raleigh, n. c., by the preachers
OF Baltimore in their meeting at
Bethel Church on Monday.
According 10 some Of the clerks
a new minister al the church had
permitted his charge TO fall down
on Its assessment. The total in
crease IN dollar money reported
TO the council was set at s27 900,
however.
DIR. Ferguson Reports
A variety OF experiences were re-
lated by the ministers who went to
Mississippi The Rev. c. c. Fergu-
son, pastor of Bethel Church was
designated by the body TO give an
inpromptu summary of the happen
ings while he was on his way to

He declared that the women who
represented the second episcopal
district were the most dignified
present AT the council and named
Bishops VI. II Davis and william

ing personagcs OF the latter he
said, Not only did he bring back

- Rainbow Gardens with
hal IN and his Royal Vaga-
bonds. the young folks crowded the
Garden out again Sunday night TO
enjoy Battle OF Music between
the vagabonds and Gloster Cur
rents Nightingales. The hotter the
battle became the better the SOL
diers liked 1t. Quite unusual I'd
say.
Ask the young people how they
enjoyed themselves at the Gray

you that as far as they are con-
cerned the McKinney's Chocolate
Dandies can come around again
sometime.

pie, II Is expected that this club will
go places and do things. Their d.
rect purpose for organization has
not as yet been revealed, but never
theless IL might be well to keep
an eye on them. Don't you think so?
The Sweetheart's Party given by
