 MT Lanheady, principal speaker, Is associated with the Alexander Hamilton Institute in sales super visory capacity. He is also president of the Alumni Association of the N. Y. U. School of Commerce and chairman of the track committee. He is expected to bring an inspiring message on N. Y. us influence in commerce today.
 Ben Ross is secretary of the Alum nj Association of New York Univer- sity and no doubt should have many interesting facts to relate to the alumni activities around the coun- try.
 The university encourages the formation of alumni chapters and allows each chapter to award a full scholarship to the most deserving boy or girl within its province. The 19S6-37 award was recently given to a girl graduate of Watertown High school
 Boys and girls anticipating e cole lege career and lacking the financial wherewithal should get in touch with some local member of the N. Y. D. chapter and secure the re- quirements for thls coveted honor.

AUTUMN THEME
 OF SUNDAY TALK
Majesty of Universe Here for Us to Appreciate
 Says Rev. Dr. Walker

"If autumn Is oil you need by way Of Q name, if evolution tells the whole story, if we have nothing be- yond, where is to become Of oil our hopes and dreams, not only for our- selves, but for our beloved ones who have gone before?" said Rev. Dr.. John Q. Walker, pastor of the Sec ond Congregational church in his sermon yesterday morning.
 The tragedy of nature worship as such Is that nature is 50 indifferent to human ideals and aspirations. Dr.. James reminds his students that not only good but also evil proceeds from nature, that on the proof of nature this is not . moral universe, that this is Q multiverse, . clash of con- flicting orders. Nature" he says, "such as we know her, cannot pos- sibly be the ultimate word to man." If 1t were, we should be of ell men, most miserable.
 The beauty and the power and tic najestry of ti.iS material uni- verse are here for those with eyes to sec and minds to appreciate. A man grows In experience and worth aS he becomes more and more sensi- tive to the beauty and the majesty of the world of nature but further than that these glories and wonders ought to lead him on reverent worship. Beauty Is not an end in itself, 1t Is not e religion. The blind worship of the God of Nature will lead Into c cul dc sac because no. ture proves itself indifferent in the long run to the hopes and dreams of men. Nature strikes down the good and the just quite as remorsc- iy as the immoral and the wicked. The justice Of this world Is exceed- ingiy limited. Seeking God through beauty alone b not enough. Serving God through beauty must be oui farther ideal. The beauty of this world, like the provision for our physical needs, must Dc made to serve larger and nobler ends. The beauty of this world must lead Us, not back, but on to God. It waa meant to be . stepping stone to . deeper, more fruitful reverence.

DECISION RESTS
 |ON STIPULATION
State Referee Hears Argue nlents for Return of Re.
 vOked License

Question whether Q stipulation by which she obtained her liquor per- nit was operative for more than one year is Q first consideration in the report filed by State Referee Frederick M. Peasley in the case Cf Mrs. Elizabeth Saginario, seeking return of her revoked license. The report now takes the case back into the superior court for decision.
 The presence of the husband, Michael Saginario, in the cafe where the permit was held, 201 East Main street, was Q breach of agrees ment, according to the liquor com. mission. Mrs. Saginario had agreed, 1t was contended, that her husband would stay away from the place when her license was granted on March, 1886.
 An inspector found the husband ct the cafe, fixing a photograph, last July. The commission main- tains that teh stipulation concern- Ing the husband was not confined to one year, as Mrs. Saginario makes complaint.

METHODIST WOMEN TO MEET TUESDAY
Aims, Accomplishments of Church to Be Exam.
 ined By Groups

Nearly three million Methodist woman will unite, tomorrow to ex- anime the aims and accomplish mentS of their church in social and welfare work, at homo and abroad.
 In one of the most dramatic con- certed efforts or recent church his- tory, they will assemble, simultan- eously, in the twenty thousand Methodist churches in the United States, Alaska, Hawaii and Porto Rice to study the means, methods and objectives of the churchs world service agencies.
 The project, a part of the Million Unit Fellowship movement now in progress to revitalize the church and to create new religious consciousness among It's members, will use drama tizations, forum discussions, phon- ograph recordings and many other modern means of interpretat ton, including an imaginary airplane trip
 Directed by Mrs. J. M. Avann, head of the woman's department of the fellowship movement, the pro- gram which she has designated as c "sofari" from the African word for journey of exploration will be carried out in each church by local women leaders.
 Participation is voluntary on the part of the local churches" Mrs. Avann explained. with the re- sponse so overwhelming, our expec- tations have been surpassed. We be- lieve 1t certain evidence that Amer ican women are taking 6 new in- terest in world affairs, particularly those that influence the welfare of humanity" h y
 "That this interest will lead to better understanding between na- tons and hence to world peace is Q hope expressed by several women leaders" Mrs. Avann reports, and she believes that those expressions reflect the desire of Christian women throughout the nation.
 The safari will be the second oc- casion in which Methodist women of the United States have united for special participation in the Mil- lion Unit Fellowship movement. The first was c Fellowship tea last Feb- ruary. Next February 6, they will join Methodist women throughout the world in on international Fel- lowship tea.

PROBATION HEADS
 ASSEMBLE TODAY
Better Understanding Be. tween Labor Unions, Corr
 rectiOnal Homes Asked

Philadelphia, Oct. Il-A ringing plea for . better understanding between labor unions and correc- tional institutions regarding voca- tional training, was made this afternoon by Dr. Henry A. Davidson, psychiatrist of the Newark City home, ct Verona, N. J., in a paper delivered at the eastern probation conference of the National Proba- ton Association, which Is being held ct the Bellevue-Stratford hotel in cooperation with the sixty-sev- enth annual Congress of the American Prison Association. The probation conference will complete Its sessions Thursday afternoon.
 "The time is at hand for a better understanding with labor unions about the vocational training prob- len," Davidson said. Nov, as never before, labor Is showing an awakening interest in general social welfare. need not tell a congress such as this anything about the deli- cacy of the prison-labor problem. But It Is not simply & matter of ac- cepting the compromise whereby the inmates of an institution are permitted to do maintenance work. It Is e question of actual labor apprenticeship. In some institu- tions, an inmates training counts toward his union card on the basis of an equivalent time as an appren- tice. In some, 1t does not. In either event, the arrangement is an old one. The whole problem has to be thought through again clearly and deeply, and we can ask the leaders of organized labor to cooperate with us on 1t. It Is unfair to assume that organized labor Is going to resist dogmatically any elaboration of vocational training programs In cor- rectional institutions. Let us meet with them, lay our cards on the table, and see if they will work with us. I think they wilE For the juve- nile institution, at least, the question is not one of competition with adult labor ct all; 1t is rather a problem of regularizing institutional trade apprenticeship so that the inmate can realize that his work in the in- stitution is Q hopeful and bona nde step towards an industrial career"
 pr. Davidson also advocated the employment of students of social science by correctional institutions, lon Q sort of interneship basis, US junior cottage masters or instruc" tors"
