Co-ed, With Short Hair and Dresses, Fills Pulpit

lowa Substitute Pastor Says Women Smoking Is No Sin. By United Press DES MOINES, July 27.—When the congregation of the Urbandale Community Church, near here, settles into the pews Sunday morning and the minister steps out to conduct the services, it is a modern co-ed, younger than most of them, and garbed in the dress of the up-to-date girl. The pastor is Miss Markaret E. Ross, 19, a student at Drake University. Miss Ross took the church for the summer. Whether she will continue in the pulpit this fall is undecided. Wears Dresses Short In appearance, Miss Ross would be taken for any of her sister students. She wears modern short skirts. She has clear gray eyes, and her brown hair is modishly bobbed. Her charge at the Urbandale Community Church was not her first pulpit experience. Last fall her brother, Leslie J. Ross, stationed at her home in Prescott, lowa, became ill and she filled his pulpit for two weeks. Later she conducted a revival. Smoking No Sin Miss Ross, in talking of her church and the ministry, which she expects to follow permanently when she finishes college, is careful not to touch with authority on matters of which she is not sure. Smoking, Miss Ross, believes, is not morally wrong for women, although she does not uphold the practice. Regarding prohibition, Miss Ross is a firm believer in the worth of the Eighteenth Amendment.

FIND RARE ART IN VIKING LOOT Discovery Depicts Warriors in New Role. BJI United Press TOCKHOLM, July 27.—That the Swedish Vikings of old were art collectors as well as feared warriors an dworld travelers, has been discovered by Swedish archelogists. When the Vikings, more than 1,000 years ago, penetrated the Russian plains and sent expeditions to the Black Sea and the Mediterranean, they captured rich booty which they brought back to Sweden This consisted of beautiful gold and silver ornaments and bric-a-brac as well as Roman, Byzantine and Oriental coins. . Their spoils also comprised an interesting marble statue, which was unearthed on the Swedish island of Oeland in the Baltic Sea. How this statue, sculptured in the early Hellenic period of 600 B. C came to be shipped to the Baltic shores remains a mystery, but it seems to indicate that the Vikings were no barbarians with love only for money and glittering gold, but also showed a liking for beautiful things in art.

MANY SEEK TO BRAVE NIAGARA, LUREDBY GOID Success of Lussier in Ball of Rubber Rouses Daredevils. By United Press NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y., July 27. —A crop of death-defying attempts at navigating Niagara Falls is looked for this summer as a result of the success which crowned the attempt of Jean Lussier, Springfield, Mass., who recently went over the cataract in a rubber ball. The ease of which Lussier successfully completed his feat, and his almost complete lack of body injuries, has instilled into many a desire to attempt the stunt, which only three persons ever have accomplished. Not only is the desire for personal glory considered, but the commercial offers that are sure to follow, apparently have served to inspire a number of men and women to risk their lives. A Pittsburgh woman has written to police authorities at Niagara Falls asking permission to make a barrel trip over the roaring cataract. Authorities on both the American and Canadian sides have made it plain that they will attempt to thwart any attempt to go over the falls. James Hardy, an athlete from Toronto, has an idea that he can plunge into the limelight by walking across the falls on a tight rope. Hardy will not attempt the feat, he says, unless some commercial firm makes him an offer. A man and wife from Kansas, identity unknown, also have asked permission to try the feat sometime

CHINESE SEEK PRECIOUS ART, TAKENAS LOOT Collection Worth Millions Missing Since Ousting of Boy Emperor. BY D. C. BESS United Press Staff Correspondent PEKIN, July 27.—The return to power of Marshal Feng Yuhsiang in north China has renewed interest of Chinese and foreign art connoiseurs in Pekin in the question, “What has happened to the art treasures taken from the boy emperor?’’ Some four years ago, in 1924, when Marshal Feng seized Pekin by a coup d’etat, he summarily ejected the boy emperor from the Imperial Palace, and a great number of art treasures held by the former Manchu ruler disappeared. A few of the smaller objects have since appeared on the market in Pekin, but these are attributed to thieving eunuchs who used the excitement of the occasion to get away with whatever they could. The more important objects, however, have never appeared, either ir. China or abroad. A group of prominent Chinese curio dealers in Pekin were much interested when they learned that Marshal Feng had decided to evict the boy emperor from the palaces set aside for him in the Forbidden City. They knew that the boy emperor had gathered together many of the Manchu treasures, covering centuries of Chinese history, and of great historic and intrinsic value. They suspected that these treasures might disappear and placed spies around the forbidden city to see what would happen. A spokesman of this group has

informed the United Press that all the more valuable articles were removed from the boy emperor’s quarters in 1924, and that many boxes and bales were loaded on camels held in waiting. These camel-trains were traced to one of Pekin’s gates, through which they passed on their way to the northwest. The spies did not dare proceed further, so it is not known where the camels went. The curio dealers are convinced that these art treasures still are hidden somewhere in the northwest, subject to the disposal of Marshal Feng or some of his subordinates. While none can be certain of the value of the articles taken, it is stated by experts that the boy emperor had treasures estimated at $250,000,000 gold, and that almost all of them disappeared. Anew apparatus, the invention of a Frenchman, for telephoning and telegraphing by wireless to an airplane in flight, has been tried in France.
