ST. LOUIS, May 16-Indications
the two-day joint meeting of the
Southern and Northern Baptists here
Monday and Tuesday will be a love
feast have appeared in the three days
the Southern Baptist Convention has
been in session.
Leaders expressed doubt a spiritual
and doctrinal unity necessary for an
organic union could be obtained, al
though all emphasized they bore no
i'll will, as Rev. John A. Huff of New
Orleans expressed it:
I'VE cannot have union without
unity. There can be no unity among
imperfect creatures such as we all
are. The right of free thinking pre-
cludes submission to one mind"
Said Rev. Arthur J. Barton, Will
mington, N. c.: "BaptiSts are not a
church but a denomination of many
autonomous, independent, self-gov-
erning churches. No general Baptist
body, such as the Southern Baptist
Convention, has any authority to say
to these churches that they should
unite with anybody"
And former convention president,
Rev. M. E. Dodd of Shreveport, La,
said: Physical union without spiri-
tual unity would be a farce, a fake
and futility" Most of the Northern
Baptist delegates were expected to
arrive this week end.
New Orleans was chosen today for
the 1887 Southern Baptist meetings,
May l3 to Is. The day was given over
largely to reports of various phases
Of the denomination work.

Constipation, liver and gall bladder

only because you're constipated, but
also because hillary drainage from

Hence, ordinary laxatives that act
only on bowels to temporarily relieve
constipation still leave you feeling
terrible. Pluto Water, however with
its amazing double action), relieves
all these troubles at the same time.

POLICE TO WIDEN
WAR0ND.C. TAGS
rakoma Driveto Be Followed
by BIockades in Other
Sections.

The campaign being waged against
Maryland residents operating tneir
automobiles on District Of Columbia
license plates will continue unabated
until every violator in Montgomery
County has been apprehended, police
said today.
Officers, who have made more than
200 arrests for improper tags since last
Wednesday, declared they will shift
the scene of their activities to
Bethesda, Silver Spring and other Sec
tions as soon as the drive now under
way in Takoma Park is completed.
Corpl. James Miller of the State
police force asserted that number
of motorists living in the border line
communities Immediately adjacent to
the Capital have successfully evaded
payment of the more costly State tags
in recent years by running their cars
on Washington plates.
Many Fined SIS.
THE practice is more widespread
this year than ever before and we
intend to stamp it out" Miller, who is
directing county and town authorities
in the work, stated. I'VE are going
to make it so hot for such violators
they won't attempt to run their cars
on District tags again
Corp. Miller said that each section
Of the county's suburban district will
be blocked off, in turn, and all motor
lists suspected of breaking the law will
be arrested and brought to trial. Not
only will they be charged with dis
playing improper tags, but they will
also be booked for driving without a
State permit. he declared.
Many of the 200 caught in the net
spread around Takoma Park during
the past five days have been tried by
Police Justice H. c. Heffner in the
town Police Court and have been fined
$40 and costs on each charge, or q
total Of $25.
Drive to Continue.
Police declared that a number OF
those who were given Summonses have
attempted to evade punishment by
parking their cars across the District
line and walking to their homes. They
said, however, that warrants for their
arrests will be sworn out and they will
be forced to post collateral for their
appearance in court
Miller said that virtually every
errant motorist in Takoma Park has
been apprehended, but the drive will
be continued for several days to finish
up the work. Ten fell into the hands
Of police this morning.

SUNDAY SCHOOL
LESSON

The Spread of Christianity.
Lesson for September 27th
Matt. 13:24-33.
Golden Text: Acts 14:27.
This is a review lesson. We have
been studying the birth and early
growth of the missionary move
ment. Naturally we turn our
thoughts to our own day and in
quire concerning the spread of
Christianity in the twentieth CEN
fury. Is the missionary enterprise
we ask, forging AHEAD in the spirit
of its founders C the apostolic
age? A full answer is given in RE
Thinking Missions" the report of
the recent laymen's foreign mis-
isons inquiry. IF the future way
of the mission is to be-as it can
be-the exacting way of the best,
its welcome abroad will be secure"
There can be no question that
Christianity in the future will be
increasingly international. Our
world is rapidly shrinking. The old
barriers of space and time r dis
appearing. Think of what the ra-
do and aviation are doing to bring
the nations closer! All parts of the
world today are in intimate touch
with one another. Therefore we are
compelled to abandon the old-time
distinction between home and for
eign missions. The field is now
one. 1t is apparent that the mis-
sionary enterprise is one organism,
all parts of it inter-related SO that
the witness for Christ in one area
sets in motion forces which damage
for the better spiritual atmos-
phere IN all Otner areas.
But there is a stronger reason for
the cultivation of a world view.
Not only r we compelled to be
world citizens by the revolutionary
forces of applied science, but we
are forced to think in terms of
mankind as a whole by the example
of Christ.
And let us bear in mind that
missions, in all their branches, are
we'll established. There are $4,000
missionaries today, $4,000 Roman
Catholic and 10000 Protestant
scattered in all five continents, and
in most of the islands of the sea,
with about ten million Christians
under their charge. The work they
are doing is of immense signifi-
canoe.

she answered.
After that the conversation
swung into a different channel. No
further mention was made of Rod
OR his gadget, and Maris was glad
of it. She would not tell them she
no longer interested in Rod.
Late that night as Maris stood at
her window looking across the roofs
of Manhattan, a remark of Jim

glanced again at the couple, she
wouldn't make a mess of her life by
letting her heart rule her. What did
marrying for love do for anyone?
A cynical smile curled at her lips.
Now she was glad she had not let
herself be carried away by her emo
tions. She must keep them under
control. Whatever came of love
matches that folks raved about, but
disillusion when the couples came
up against the practicalities of life?
But suddenly all her calculated
plans received a jar when Jimmy
said II guess Rod will be a rich
man one of these days. One of the
engineers down at our place was
talking about his gadget. He thinks
it will revolutionize radio recep-
ton"
"That would suit you all right,
Maris, wouldn't it," questioned
Patsy.
"Yes, of course" answered Mar
is, "but no one knows yet. 1t may
only be a pipe dream"
"You don't sound very enthusi-
astic over Rods ideas" remarked
Jimmy.
"Oh, maybe I've heard SO much
about this wonderful gadget that
Pm not going to believe in its
wonderful future. Guess Pm from
Missouri, and need to be shown"
There was a note of boredom in
Maris' voice as she answered.
"Just wait till Rod comes back
from Cleveland. Probably the en-
CINE of the train he comes in on
will be flying flags. I've a bunch
he's going to make good with it all

rneringues. If your mother used to
make these delicacies, they are to
you, no doubt, as the poet says
dear as remembered kisses . 4.
and sweet as those!
Perhaps we'd better stop right
now to make a distinction between
kisses - the kind of which we're
speaking - and meringues. The
smaller shapes are those known as
kisses. They are very often sprin-
killed. with chopped nuts, grated
chocolate or candied fruit and
served as tea waters or CONNECTIONS.
The meringues, which are usual
ly made larger, are commonly
known as meringue rings you
know those hard, crunchy meringue
nests" which are so good when
filled with ice cream, fresh fruit or
whipped cream Haven't you al
ways wanted to try them? Well,
here are the rules-true and simple.
Contrary to many beliefs, me-
ringues really are easy to make.
Low Temperature Required
The most important of the steps
IN making them is in the baking.
A very low oven temperature must
be maintained throughout the en-
tire baking period in order to get
that tender crunchiness - the ear
marks of a good meringue. You'll
find the new automatic electric
range just built to satisfy you in
this respect-as well as in many
others. Its low controlled heat is
