‘CHURCH LEADERS COME FROM RANKS OF YOUNGIPEOPLE' The Rev, F, A, Hayward Opens First Annual Baptist Religious Retreat, "From the young people's departments of the church have come world leaders, not only for the distinctive function of the ministry as we term it, but the rapidly developing branches of lay leadership," asserted the Rev. F. A. Hayward, district superintendent of Indianapolis Baptist area, today at the opening session of the first annual religious retreat for Baptist young people at the First Baptist Church, Meridian and Vermont Sts. “Thinking men in the church of today believe ip trained_minds and directed service,'' the Rev. Hayward said. “In the church today youth is seen at its best in leadership, in service and even in sacrifice. Young men are being given recognition not only in councils within the church, but even offered important official positions and the joy of it is that they fill them acceptably.” * Other speakers were J. W. Cox, Ric’hmond, Ind.; the Rev. Ford Porter, Evansville, Ind.; Ray J. 'Wells, the Rev. T. J. Parsons and the Rev. Carlos M. Dinsmore. Open forum was led by Edwin Phelps, general secretary’ Baptist Young People’s Union of America. A banquet will be served tonight at the Y. W. C. A. Following two addresses a social hour will be held.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

LETTER FROM MRS. MARY AH DEN PRESCOTT TO JOHN ALDEN PRESCOTT MY DEAR SON; After my last letter to you, which you did not think worthy of an answer, I fully determined never to write you again. But a mother’s heart —even when It is broken and bleeding—cannot quite cast out her only child. In my last letter I told you of a picture which dear Priscilla Bradford had seen and which made me think that the suspicious might find gossiping circumstances coincident to the adoption of that nameless brat you have seen fit to call after your most illustridus ancestor. Positive Proof Os course, that letter was only one of conjecture, but now, my dear son, I have positive proof that your wife (I hate to call her by that holy name) Is holding clandestine meetings with another man. and I am almost sure that her own family arc aiding and abetting her in this terrible thing. I am sure Providence is working through dear Priscilla Bradford for your salvation. How otherwise could she be in New York just at this time and see your wife In Intimate conversation with a man, evidently an Eng lishman. in the public dining-room of a hotel. It seems to me that at least she should, for the sake of your name, have kept her affairs more private. But. no. she has flaunted them to the world. In the Dark Os course, my dear boy, not having heard from you lately, I am not sure but that you and Leslie have separated. As much as I deplore divorce. I will confess to you that I hope this is true, especially as dear Priscilla Bradford seems to think Leslie has taken that baby you adopted with her. If my surmise is correct, and if you have found you have made a great mistake by marrying Leslie, and have separated. I will make the great sac rlflce of leaving my home here where all the furnishings speak of your an restore and come and live with you in your home. Os course, not knowing any one there. I -will hope to persuade dear Priscilla Bradford to come with me Then, my dear hoy, I am sure you would find a home such as not even you have dreamed. Priscilla is returning from New York tomorrow. A telegram to me would bring us to you within the next few days. Your loving and forgiving MOTHER.

Telegram From John Alden l*reecott to Mrs. Mary Alden Prescott

Under no will I allow you and that damned meddlesome old maid in my house. You have forfeited every filial affection that T have ever had. Leslie is still my loved and loving wife. JOHN. (Copyright. 1924. NEA Service, Inc.) NEXT; Jack Prescott to Sydney Carton—An old beau’s compliments.

Contact in Office Kill#\ Glamour of Romance

Oflices and’factories frequently form a background for romances. At the same time, however, they rob romance of a largo bit of its glamour.

After a man has seen girls with the powder off their noses, and has seen them “repair” their office-worn complexions, how can he pretend that he thinks his finaneee’s peaches-and-cream complexion is a natural, not a beauty shop, production? After he has seen the efficiency of his employer's pretty secretary, how can he help seeing through the wideeyed ignorance which is one of woman’s cleverest weapons outside the business world? (Os course, it is egotism that ever keeps* him from seeing this.) And why should a girl think her clerk-suitor is a hero when she knows how far from heroes are the clerks with whom she works daily? It simply cannot be done. And so, Tien and girls, accept each other on Tanker, less romantic basis, and talk facts instead of fancies, Romance Goes Begging Pear Miss Lee: lam a /ears old. love a boy 2 1 years old. VV-.- *ori at the ame place. We bold are very jealous of aeh other. We have quarrels, but soon a'-e p. But he never asks me for a date iny more. ,io a.C he loved me better than any other irl. and sllil says he does. I have been go'r with him a year, but not steady ail the ,ime. Lio you think we would get along better f we didn't work at the sail e p.acc to see ach other's doings? BLUE EYES. You are a sacrifice, my dear, on ho altar of woman’s new-found commercial independence, as well as on he altar of jealousy. Unless a man s definitely in love, it is not urprising that he should not want o see frequently, in the evenings, a irl with whom he has worked all ‘ay. That would take his thoughts ack to the office or factory he robably wants to forget at night. But don’t worry, at 18, about love, ou still have plenty of time to be ’linking about that. You would ■oth gain a great deal, in your riendship with each other and with ther people, by getting over your ealousy. Mother Bars Way Pt nr Martha Lee: I am a young man of ' and am in love with a girl of 21. But he and my mother cannot agree. I never ad a chance to have n special talk with ler. She lives a few doors from us, but ever entered our house. I want '•our adice. A. L. G Why not hape a “special talk" •ith your mother and find out why he and the girl do not agree?
