FAITHFUL WORKER By Charles c Garvin

Although Cross Street AME Church is a small church 1t has two senior choirs and one jun for choir. The two senior choirs or the Chorus, as some of them prefer to call themselves alternate in singing. I must say, "The three choirs sing well. :" Rev. T. J. Riddick, their pas !? tor inaugurated the two senior choirs since he came here a year ago.
 The faithful worker of whom 1 am writing is Mrs. Harold Peters of New Haven. Mrs. Peters has four lovely children, and yet she comes to Middle town every other week to re- hearse the Zion Jubilee Chorus on Satuhday nights and have them ready for the services on Sunday mornings. There are any number of members who live here and fail to attend church on Sundays. I noticed last Sunday morning the weath- CT was very bad and the at tendance at the church was very small. The choir was lack ing a number of members, but Mrs. Peters was there render ing her music for the few who came to sing.
 Mrs. Peters is the wife of Harold Peters who is employed by the Connecticut State Hos pital in Middletown as a phy- cho-aid. He alo sings in the chorus along with his wife.
 This church which has sur vived through a long period of not having enough members to support it, but it is doing nice ly now. It takes people like

ten much poetry in the last few years and the one recently writ ten is the one below:
 GOSSIP"
 I You re working i'll the kitchen And you hear a ringing sound, Why it's only Clarabella With the gossip of the town. You open up your front door To let Miss Buzy in, She stands there tongue wag- And little foolish grin. She starts out telling about a
 game Preceded by a dance, And tells you what she thought Of Ned from her very first
 glance.
 - " And then she left and so you
 thought You'd tell just Sally Lou, But Sally Lou decided that She'd tell somebody too. V She then gets on the wire Anr she calls up Mouthy Fan
 nie, .. And before tn receiver hits the
 hook They've called up Talking An
 nie. Before you know it-it s back
 to you All changed but to be sure, So you d done the best of things Keeping gossipers from your
 door. -

The non member friends of the church who once donated to the up- keep of this church are watch ing and many are pleased to know that such progress is be- ing made. In time to come, I am sure that more people will feel it their responsibility to support the church and what ever their pastor tries to do for the betterment of the progress of the church.

 Be Siarled by Historian,

VICTORIA, B. C., June l9-lRt- Adventure a Ia Robert Louis Steven son was knocking at Victoria's door today as historians prepared to search for buried bottle contain ing documents left on Vancouver Island century and a half ago by the Spanish explorer Manuel Quimper.
 It is disclosed that Cecil French, local historian, found Papal Cross carved in an ancient tree on the shore of the Bay of Esquimault, four miles southeast of Victoria.
 Quimper cruised the Juan de Fuca Straits in 1790 and in his diary told of burying the documents and marking the spot by carving a Pa pal Cross in a pine tree. French followed Quimper's ancient charts in locating the tree.

 Gibson said the government drafted proposal would give five percent wage increases, plus over time pay for nine holidays annually to the National Maritime Union, the American Communications As sociation and the National Marine Engineers Beneficial Association, all CIO unions. They would receive a one year extension of all other current contract terms, plus the right to a wage review on Dec. IS, Gibson added
 The NMU has demanded a 20 percent wage increase, a 4O-hour work week to replace the 48-hour week, six-week paid vacations for all workers and hiring of all ratings through union halls. The AGA had sought Is percent boost.

 Amends, Parents Pay

The City Ponce Department today closed the books on the episode of the stolen fireworks which were talk en by five boys from warehouse cn the Rock Dump where they had been stored for Juneau's Fourth of July celebration. The five young sters, and their parents, appeared before City Magistrate William A. Holzheirner yesterday afternoon and paid S5 each as their share of the actual cash loss for the fireworks after the completion of inventory and the return Of some of the missing items.
 Much of the missing pyrotechnical display was either set off by the boys CT damaged by dampness when buried in the ground as hiding place. The boys, whose ages are from 9 to II years, were rather sub dued yesterday afternoon when they faced the Judge and Chief of Police Milo Clouse.
