THE BISHOP OF KANUCA"

Yesterday there was placed in a grave
in old Trinity churchyard in Columbia, S.
c., the mortal remains of a distinguished
bishop Of the Episcopal denomination who
for more than ten years had been identl-
fled with Hendersonville and this section
of North Carolina as the moving spirit and
official head of the Kanuga conferences.
Ihe sudden demise of the good Bishop
iof Kanuga" was a stunning blow to his
church and brethren and a great company
of friends, among the latter being vast
number of persons identified with other
denominations or no church denomination
at all.
Bishop Finlay'S life did not extend to
the years granted to some men, but his
entire life had been filled with activity and
with the accomplishment of definite and
worthy ends. His was a busy life; life
OF energetic service for his denomination
and for the cause of Christianity at large.
His labOrs to develop the conference CEN
ter at Kanuga enlisted the most earnest
efforts Of the last eleven years of his ca
reer and the success which crowned his
labors for Kanuga marked him as one Of
the outstanding leaders of his denOmina-
ton.
Bishop Finlay's friends in Henderson
vile and throughout this section feel a
personal loss in his death.

."Such weddings result in happy

1t is one of Chitwood's duties to

parents complain because their
daughters are too young to marry

FOUR OF FIVE RECONCILED
Four out of five Of the hesitat-

they have become reconciled to
the situation, Chitwood said.
If such cases are prosecuted
and the defendant is convicted,
he is subject to a penitentiary
sentence. Under these conditions,
Chitwood finds that little argu-

marriage is the best solution.

SES Service STAN correspondent
WJASHINGTON.-World tension
" over Germany's immediate
intentions in CzechoSlovakia will
increase in the next few weeks.
This fact and the fear in Wash
ngton and other capitals that
tension will lead to explosion lie
behind the speeches, in which
Secretary Hull denounced Inter
national lawlessness" and Presi-
dent Roosevelt emphasized Ameri-
ra's concern over other nations
"Wanton brutality"
. Although about million Ger
mans have been called out for
maneuvers, the u. S. government
has no inside information on Hit
ler's plans-and it is doubted here
that Hitler himself knows lust
what he will do.
Reports of differences between
Hitler and his army generals are
considered authentic. The gen.
erals don't believe Germany is
sufficiently stocked for European
war and they advise against in
.vasion of Czechoslovakia. But
they also advised against the Aus
.rian adventure.
Diplomatic and military officials
in Washington suspect Hitler
won't attack. The Hull and RooSe-
welt speeches were designed to
notify the world that American
sympathy--and perhaps more
would beIanged against Germany

BEHIND THE SCENES
IN WASHINGTON
nv poDNeY BUTCHER

IN case ner aggression provoked
war.
Expert opinion holds that risk
ing war with all other major
European powers plus moral OPP
position from the United States is
too big gamble for a rational
man to take. Yet, all u. S. Off
Gals are not convinced Hitler is
rational.
TENTATIVE TIP. The British
l. American reciprocal tr a d
treaty is likely to be concluded
within a month, much sooner than
has been expected. Few differ
enceS remain.
The British want the agreement
soon because it will open up credit
facilities valuable in war and per-
haps will have some psychological
or moral effect on Germany.
The u. S. government is glad to
give such an impression of Anglo
American friendship, and the
British agreement, much more
far-reaching than any other, will
cap a series of trade treaties dear
to Secretary HullS heart.
The British proved hard-boiled
bargainers. Recently, however,
they have discarded an illusion
that the Roosevelt administrator
wanted to get the treaty signed
before November's election, and
have seemed more impressed with
its political advantages to them
selves.

Brown had knocked this feature
cold by stepping away out ahead
of others in years of local sum-
mer residence, having missed but
one year since 1896 But those in
terested in this feature are deter
mined to lengthen the record.
Mrs. F. w. Ewbank reports a
local summer residence of 81
wears without a break for Miss
Addie Scheper. Miss Scheper's
sister, Mrs. William Hill, Of Wash
ington, D. c., began her summer
career here at the same time but
she has missed a few summers.
Their parents fell in love with
Hendersonville climate over half
century ago when it was a mere
village and there were lots of wide
open spaces. They bought on the
corner of Fourth and Buncombe
and Miss Scheper, beginning as
child, has made Hendersonville
regularly for 81 summers.
Who can beat this with Il rec
ord of unbroken summers or

longer period?
