BISHOP
DIES SUDDENLY
ON APRIL 26
William Fraser Mcdowell, Re-
tired Since 1892, Dies In
Washington, d. C..
INTERMENT TOOK PLACE
IN DELAWARE, OHIO

Funeral services were held on We'd
nesday last for Bishop William Fras-
err Mcdowell, outstanding Methodist
prelate and for many years head of
the Washington area of the church,
who died on Monday at his home in
the national capital.
Bishop Mcdowell, retired since 1882,
was stricken with a heart attack soon
after returning from Morgantown, N.
c., where he had been on a lecture
tour.
He presided at many sessions of
Wilmington M. E. Conference from
1916 to 1882, it being part of Wash
ington area.
Burial was at Delaware, Ohio,
Thursday.
Associates characterized Bishop Nc
Dowell as the supreme preacher of
the Methodist denomination. He was
repeatedly asked to deliver his IA
nous sermon on the miracle of the
loaves and fishes, which he called
"The Boy With the Sardines and Bis
cults"
He visualized a "world alliance of
churches of all faiths" moving toward
international peace based on friend
ship and understanding during a
preaching mission at Wilmington, Del.
last January at Brandywine M. E..
Church. Illness then forced him to
discontinue the mission.
Bishop Mcdowell, since his retire
ment, has been chairman of the COM
mittee on unification of the Metho-
dist Church, which sought unification
If the Methodist Episcopal, Methodist
Protestant, and Methodist Episcopal
Churches, South.
From 1904 to 1916, when he began
serving this area, he was resident
bishop of Chicago.
Associates gave him a large share
of responsibility for nationwide pro-
hibition.
He was respected for his executive
ability, quick perception, and faculty
of avoiding controversy, exerting
statesmanlike qualities in ecclesias-
teal problems.
A brilliant conversationalist, Bish-
OPP Mcdowell was also noted for his
humor and youth.
His nearest relatives is Mrs. John
R. Lindsay, niece, of Millersburg,
Ohio. Mrs. Mcdowell died several
years ago.
Bishop Mcdowell was a lover of
outdoor life, one of the early Amer
lean golf enthusiasts, and kept in ex-
cellent physical condition through
long walks.
Born February 4, 1853 at Millers-
burg, Bishop Mcdowell was educated
at Ohio Wesleyan and Boston Univer-
sity, and ordained in the ministry in
1882. After serving several pastorates
in Ohio he became chancellor of Den
yer University from 1890 to 1899.
From 1899 to 1904 he was CORE
spending secretary of the Board of
Education of his church, and later be-
came it's president. He was elected
bishop in May, 1904, for life.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
TOOTHPIcK TOPICS
Rr c. e. FLINT



This small column has been
dedicated to the recovery Of Key
West as an old and important
city in Florida. We claim a sort
Of spiritual adoption, a feeling Of
harmony with Key West tradition.
If We have wandered somewhat
far afield in these topics, it has
been in the spirit Of the school
boy writing home and wanting
only news to dilate upon.
A geography book Of a century
ago refers to Key West also as
s'Thompson's Island" and as that
name is imbeded in the tradition
OF the island it would be interest
ing to follow it back to the first
settlers who occupied the four or
five estates Of that day. Who
were these first corners?
More than other parts of Flor
ida, Key West has glamour. A re-
cent Saturday Evening Post story
pictured the days of prosperity
when tall ships flocked to her
harbor. And an old lady recently
gave a fine sketch of Civil War
times in the Island City for The
Citizen readers.
Many still recall the exciting
days of the Spanish War, when
soldiers and refugees Jared forth
from the shelter of the forts to
run the gauntlet of Spanish pa
trolls Soldiers and patriots have
known Key West, and mariners
from all lands have watched f6A
her landfalI at sea. i u
Today Key West Is. coming
back into its own, as evinced by
increasing demand for land, and
the sale of Trumbo Island Gas
an investment" Those industries
that are peculiarly Key Vests
viii respond to new money and
enterprise, the sponge trade ami
canning of seafoods, promoted
and stimulated by an efficient
Chamber of Commerce.
Add to this the ever-increasing
popularity Of her unique fishing
grounds and you have a pre-vie~
of the coming of prosperity to the
Island City. 1t is no mirage this
time.

In all that time. Not until few days
ago did the dancing star of "The
Goldwyn Follies" know it was hers.
An assistant director asked the
ballerina for her dressing room keys
30 he could have some wardrobe de-
livered there. She wanted to know
what dressing room he meant. The
little portable bungalow on the set,
the only one she knew anything
about, had no lock and no keys.
The assistant director began to ask
questions. He learned that Miss zor-
ina had been dressing with the en-
semble ballerinas of George Balan-
chimes American ballet in their re-
hearsal quarters. She had heard of
Hollywood's luxurious dressing room
suites. but it never occurred to her
that she was entitled to one. AS
premier balerina of the Ballet Russo
she had shared quarters with other
members of the troupe. Asking no
questions, she was doing likewise In
