PRESBYTERIANS f WILL MEET SOON | I* National Conference To Be Held In Cleveland De- \ cember 3-6. ■ 1 •'Presbyterians from this section t are planning to attend a great l(resbyterian national conference, in Clave < land, Ohio, December 3 to 6." said the Rev. It. N. Covert, pastor of the Presbyterian church in speaking of ' several coining events of importance 1 in church circles. "This conference is to be held tin [ <l< r the cell of the I’resyterian Gen-, end Count Is, and concerns the vast | missionary and benevolence work of, the church. The purpose of the con ference is to acquaint the pastors. | laymen and women of the central ( and eastern sections of the church with the program and work of th i deorganized boards and to inspire the' country to renewed interest and de- [ leaders of his influential part of the votion, in behalf of the whole task | of the church." To Consider Varied Qu e stions The Rev. Mr. Covert said that such questions as these will be considered.; during the sessions of the conference; Is the church on the job? Does the church have q real program for enlisting the epthiviasm and the services of present-day young people? Is the foreign mission enterprise of the church worth while? Does the Presbyterian church rant; with other Protestant churches in carrying its full share of the world'--spiritual burdens? Where does the Presbyterian church really stand in the matter o' I stewardship and tithing? Does the church take proper care of its old church ready to adopt its methods of work to meet changing conditions? How can the men of the church b Majestic Theatre Ft. Wayne, Ind.

lined up for first things first? How will the reorganization of th" boards, with 'women members on all of them, and with the general boards, affect the work of the women and of the boards? Is the church spending ton much upon overhead? Is It spending; too much upon it- 1 local enterprises? Has the Presbyterian church a workable plan for the evangelization and Christian education of America? What are the elements- of a sue- <••• ssftil local church? Prominent Churchmen to Attend "It is expected," the minister added, "that the Cleveland conference will | draw largely for its attendance from [many states, notably Illinois, Indiana, [Michigan, Kentucky, West Virgini-i, . Pennsylvania and New York. The naitional leaders of the church and of the boards will be present. This list includes Moderator Charles F. Wishart, Stated Clerk Lewis S. Mudge, 'Dr. Robert E. Speer, Dr. John A. Marquis and Dr. Henry It. Master, general secretaries of the board. In 'addition, it is expected that outstand ling figures in national public life will appear on the program. “The keynote of the conference is to be sounded on the theme of ‘A Glorious Chijrch .in its Faith and Work.’ Emphasis is to be placed on I the evangelistic and missionary as . pect of the church's program. The Bible study period is to begin each morning session and group confer ] cnees will occupy the large r part of, the morning and afternoon. In these | conferences'such matters as national missions, foreign missions. Christian education, ministerial pensions, stewardship, missionary education, every-member mobilization and th" benevolence budget will be considjered. The evenings will be devoted to addresses from national leaders. Is Biggest Me e t Attempted | ‘‘The inspiring success of the Kansas City Presbyterian general conference held a year ago has prompted the boards and general council to iundertake an even more important 'conference this year. It promises to I be the most significant and inspiring I gathering held in the interest of the ' work of the Presbyterian church in i many a year. "Reduced fares on eastern railroad i lines are being arranged for. The : Presbyterian churches in Cleveland [are loyally and generously cooperlating. The preliminary program will soon be published. Full information may be secured from the New Era Organization of the General Council. 15(1 Fifth avenue. New York City." o “Tiger” Lives Well On Six Cents Per Year Paris, (United Press).—Georges Clcmenseau, “the Tiger." came back to ! arts the other day feeling like a tw t-year-old, in spite of his eighty-two years and some odd days. This is what he ascribes it to: , Up at 2:30 every morning and to work on a philosophic treatise, now finished, and for which half a dozen Paris publishers are bidding. Breakfast at 6:30, consisting of vegetable soup, two kinds of fish, two thick slices of meat, topped off with coffee and cream. Midday meal comprising a thick soup—two helpings, be it noted —fish, meat and fruits. At sundown or thereabouts much more soup, with lots of vegetables and half dozen kinds of fruit thereafter. FOUR ELEVENS STILL UNBEATEN (By Henry L. Farrell, United Press Staff Correspondent.) New York, Nov. 21. —Yale, Illinois, Cornell and Michigan still hold their heads high and lofty as the only unbeaten and untied elevens in the esteemed fast company of the season. Yale and Illinois, by reason of the class of their victims, stand out as the season draws to a close, as two of the greatest teams and perhaps greater than Cornell and Michigan. Two undefeated eastern teams dropped out of the select society Saturday when Syracuse was defeated bv Colgate and when Washington and Jefferson was downed by Pitt. Syracuse is. in exactly the same position as Notre Dame —a very fine eleven with a reconi spoiled by one “off game.” Yale, in covering Princeton with disaster, flashed one of the finest looking teams that has been seen in the east this year. Notre Dame against the Army and Princeton had no more , style or finish than Yale had in run ning away from Princeton. Old Yale grads heralded it as the greatest of all Yale teams, but with

enthusiasm curbed, it does look like one of the best In years and years and one that would give any team in the country a terrible fight. There Is no doubt that Yale has in Richeson, Mallory, Pond, Neale, Nelilllnger, Stevens. Bench and Murphy, the greatest backfield In the country. No one can recull a team that had more backs In one season of such brilliance. Cormdl was still getting fat on white boat, beat Johns Hopkins 52-0, and Increased Its total points for the season to 306. West Virginia Is second with 294. BONUS FORCES REORGANIZATION Illy Fraser Edwards) (I'. P. Staff Correspondent) Washington, Nov. 21. —Soldier bonus forces, staggered by Secretary Mellon’s tax reduction program, wore reforming their lines today for a vigorous campaign in the new congress. American Legion officials made no effort to minimize the blow dealt the bonus by Mellon, but they are not downhearted. They confidently predict the ultimate passage of a bonus [law. » Before Mellon's anti-bonus tax plan was announced, they claimed a house ] majority of 8 to 1 for the bonus and a I senate majority that could over-ride any presidential veto. Now, they say, congress must be re-polled on the question. Legion officials deny Mellon’s contention that a bonus would defer a tax cut for years. They declare the bonus would not interfere with a sub stantial reduction of taxes. But they concede the force Mellon's argument will have with tax payers and congressmen formerly for the bonus Some friends of the measure will b" I lost, they say. i The legion plans to have the four ! fold bonus play- re-introduced in the ’ identical form as the bill vetoed by ■ the late President Harding. The measure provides for: i 1. Cash bonus if veterans service credit is not more than SSO, estimated I at $16,000,000. ) 2. Adjusted service compensation or I , paid up insurance policy payable in - twenty years with a 50 per cent loan II value, estimated at $3,364,000,000 cost i over forty-four-year period. i 3. Vocational training, estimatad to . cost $52,000,000. 4. Farm and home aid. estimated to cost $412,000,000. The total cost of , the bill is estimated at $3,800.000.))"0 over a 44-year period. Sugar Beet Harvest Is Completed At Delphos ) Omaha, Neb., Nov. 21. —Two moveof hauling beets to the local beet dump of the Holland-St. Louis com pany for shipment of their Decatur factory was completed Monday. Five loads, hauled Monday, completed the work so far as the beet growers in the vicinity of Delphos are concerned 1 The farmers have been fortunate in having ideal weather for the lifting of beets this year and have con ’ sequent ly been able to complete th'' 1 work in good time. The crop has been exceptionally ! large, greatly exceeding that of last • season.

11 e One hundred carloads have already tbeen shipped, according to Henry Os tendorf, who is in charge of the dump here, and more than 7no ions of the beets are still stacked on tlie ground v ' at the dump alongside the Clover [ Leaf at Clay street. When 'hese have

■ been shipped, the total number of earloads win nave reached approximately 125 as compared with about 35 last year. The quality of the beets this season is also well above the average and will make the crop a | most profitable one.
