< Probation After Death" will be the subject of the Lesson Sermon.
 The Golden Text is from Job 17:9, 'The righteous also shall hold on his way, and he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and strong er."
 Selections from the Bible includ- ed the following from EphesianS 5: 1,2, Il, 14; 'Beyet therefore follow CTS of God, as dear children; And walkinlove,as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling Savour.

 Readings from the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, include the following: "A demonstration of the facts of Soul in Jesus way resolves the dark visions of material sense into harmony and immortality <.

TERMITES RUIN
 CHURCH STAIRS
Fertilization of First Bap- list Building Will Cost
 $2,565

Rev. David P. Gaines, pastor of the First Baptist church, recently discovered that termites have been working in a pile of timber under the front steps of the church and the door leading from that area into the gymnasium.
 , They have entered, also, it, is be- lieved, Q small area of the gymna- Sitm floor. The Termininx company of New England was engaged by the trustees to make an investiga- ton into the extent of the damage.
 Their report states that the in- sect, fortunately, has not attacked other parts of the building. How ever, the damage will spread unless steps are taken to exterminate the pest. What has been recommended is the impregnation ow the ground outside and beneath the gym floor and the floor itself with chemical which should kill the termites in that area and constitute a barrier against their reaching other parts of the building.
 The cost of this project would be $700 and to fortify the whole build ing this way against the pest would cost $2,565. The church, not hav- ing any such amount to spend, the trustees have been uncertain as to what course to pursue. The Ter mink company is positive in its diagnosis of the situation and the

church may have to resort to the building from ruin. -'
 For the time being, however, the trustees have decided to replace the loor and the area of the gym floor which have been destroyed and to set up 8 continuous inspection of adjacent parts of the building so that further activity of the termites may be detected immediately and guarded against.
 If their activities are renewed in a menacing degree the treatment recommended by the Terminix com pany will have to be applied at whatever cost. The trustees will make report of the condition of the church at the next business meeting, October 29.

q. What is the purpose of the World Conference on Life and Work and when and where will it be held?
 A. The World Conference, which includes practically all the . Protestant bodies of all lands and most of the branches of the East ern Orthodox Churches, will be held in Oxford, England, July 12- 26, 1937. The subjects for con-. Sideration, the Church and the Community; the Church and the State; Church, Community and State in Relation to the Econo- mic Order; the Universal Church and the World of Nations Christianity and War, indicate the recognition of a situation of crisis faced by the Church in many lands due to the rise of the spirit of nationalism and the challenge of Communism and rethinking and restating the mu- tual relations of Church and State and demonstrating the spiritual unity in these practical attitudes and concerns which characterizes the Christian churches of every name.
 Q. What to Jews mean whhen they say Israel is the Chosen People"
 A. A Jewish authority answers: The prophets, like the rest of their cotintrymen, proceeded from the convxiction that Israel is the peo- pie of God. But instead of per- mitting this belief to remain the chief article of national vanity and selfishness, they transformed it irsto a high ideal of duty. Be- cause Israel experienced in a special measure the guidance and the blessing of God, heavy obliga- tions devolved upon Israel.
 The belief in the choice of Israel does not render Israel superior or fayorite nation, entit-
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-10-24

ling it to trample upon other na- tionS. The kindness attended to Israel God extends to all op- pressed peoples. If Israel is to be justified in regarding itself the chosen of God, then must 1t choose to serve God in truth and to excell in justice, in loving kind- ness, in compassion and in faith fuiness. Rather than see Israel victorious over enemies, the pro- phets wished to see 1t free from iniquity, and transformed into a Kingdom of priests and holy people.
 0. How was it possible to cre- ate the Roman Catholic Church i'm Rome instead of Bethlehem, the Holy Land?
 A. A Catholic spokesman arls- wers: The Catholic Church be- 1ieves as 8 dogmatic fact that St. Peter, the chief Apostle, was Bishop of Rome. As long as the Church was to last, Peter was to reign in an unbroken succession of Bishops of Rome.
 The preeminence of the Roman Church did not come from the fact that Rome was the capital of the Empire. Tradition asserts that the Popes held their supreme office for. the sole reason that they were St. Peters successors.
 That Rome's place in the Em- pire led to its being chosen by Divine Providence as Peters see, instead of Bethlehem, was to be expected.

Winter of 1880. She was just 81
then, and life for her seemed over.
Both legs had been cruelty mangled
from the hips down. But the passing
months brought her fresh spiritual
strength even when her physical re-
covery did not keep pace.
Jackie had a lot of inspiration
she said. There was her doctor. for
example. who found her stricken with
a hemorrhage just at dawn one morn
ing, with no donors of blood avail
able The physician gave his own
blood and performed the TRANSMISSION
as well.
Others donated their blood when
the need arose-Jackie's minister, her
Sunday school classmates at Calvary
Baptist Church, her nurses and many
others. Last Spring the girl, then
81 was enabled to leave the hospital
on crutches with the aid of leg
braces.
Makes Her Own Way.
She found a job with the Goodwill
Industries and now is self-supporting
Her off hours are occupied with the
needlework which enabled her to earn
pin money" during her years in the
hospital and with collecting trinkets
miniature animals in glass and
china preferred. But her main di-
vertisement is wrestling.
"At a match I can forget myself.
That's because people forget me
Every mind is focused on the ring
From the moment get in sight OF
the arena I'm no longer Jackie Jack
son, the cripple. but just noisy part
of the crowd of fans"
Has Favorite Wrestler.
Jackie's favorite among the wres-
tiers is Cliff Olson, newcomer, "be-
cause he's such clean, flne-looking
youngster and never loses his temper,
no matter what they do to him in the
ring" Jackie said she got mad for
the first time at last Thursday
match, when her favorite met with
what she regarded as unnecessarily
rough treatment at the hands of an
opponent.
But it's all in sport, or most Of it,
anyhow, and I love it! I haven't
missed a match for months. When
I have to go back to the hospital my
friends see the matches for me and
come to my room and describe them.
Sometimes they even re-enact the
whole bout so I won't miss anything
Well, I'll see you at the next match.
I won't be farther from the ring than
the second row, you can bet on that!"

BY VESTA CUMMINGS.

BY tES1A SIMMINOS.
n n ANTILLAS, lofty combs and
! M roses in the hair have given
way to bobbed hair as far as
the ladies of Spain are con-
cerned. Today the fountain pen is
mightier than the castenet, and, in
the land where once no young woman
| left her home without a chaperon,
women warriors battle.
Sonora Fernando de Los Rios. wife
of the new Spanish Ambassador, eX-
planned in her drawing room at the
embassy yesterday that the status of
| femininity in Spain has been altered so
drastically in the past 20 years that
the fringed shawlS of a past era are
seldom seen, being worn only as a
costume on fiesta days.
Daughter and wife of distinguished
| intellectuals, Sonora de Los Rios her
self seems to typify the changed order
for her countrywomen. All of her life
she has been an educator and trans
lator. lecturing principally at
teachers college in Grenada on his
tory, art and geography.
Displays Traditional Charm.
Interviewed with the assistance of
an interpreter, the sonora displayed
the traditional charm of the women Of
her country, combined with intel
lectual curiosity and poise. She. who
speaks, or writes, or reads half a
dozen different languages. was apollo
getic about her imperfect English.
With straight, dark hair parted in
the middle, quiet hands and sparkling
eyes, Sonora de Los Rios would prob
ably be the last to call herself
feminist, but her accomplishments
speak for themselves.
She speaks Italian and French
f1uently, as well as her native Spanish
and Catalan, and has reading and
writing knowledge of English and
German. In addition she is scholar
of Greek, Latin and Arabic, and has a
bachelors degree from the University
of Madrid. She is the compiler of two
geography text books, and has trans
lated numerous Italian and French
volumes into her native language, as
we'll as the works of the Catalan poet,
Maragall.
Sonora de Los Rios is delighted
with Washington and her new home.
Her pleasure over the parks and the
famous tiled patio at the embassy
are, however, diminished by the anxi-
ETY. all Spaniards feel today over the
revolution and the welfare of their
friends at home, she explained.
Social Life to Be Quiet.
"If my country were at peace
could be very content in this lovely
spot" Sonora de Los Rios said. Until
that time social life at the embassy
will be quiet. She herself enjoys
society. taking a particular pleasure
in small intimate gatherings.

daughter of Hermenegildo Giner de

COMMUNITY CHEST
UNIT IS ORGANIZED
Special Assignments Group
Hears Addresses
at Meeting.

The Special Assignments Unit Of
the Community Chest, of which
Joseph P. Tumulty is chairman, was
formally organized yesterday at a
meeting devoted to explaining the
needs of the poor and the valuable
work done by the organization.
Addresses were made by Tumulty.
Clarence Phelps Dodge, president, of
the Community Chest; Coleman Jen-
nings, campaign chairman; Herbert
L. Willett, jr., director, and John j.
Mcdonnell, secretary of the unit.
Tumulty, former secretary to Presi-
dent Wilson, declared "the slogan of
the Community Chest contains a
clarion call addressed to all that is
noble in the human heart-that fine
emotion of sympathy, which, when
called into action, makes the atmos-
phere in which we live radiant and
beautiful-an atmosphere of faith and
cheer and Goodness"
A hope that the workers would
realize they were presenting the cause
OF IS agencies engaged In helping the
less fortunate was expresses by Dodge.
Jennings stressed the need for more
funds, calling attention to the fact the
Chest is indebted to the hospitals to
the extent of $4,000 for last year.
Willett urged a wider dissemination
of knowledge regarding the actual
work of the agencies and its transla-
ton into terms of help to human be-
ings.
The method of procedure was OUT
lined by Mcdonnell.
November 4 has been set as the date
for the opening of the campaign by
the Special Assignments Unit.
