LOCAL DIVISION'S PLACE IN PENNSY GROUPING DOUBTFUL
' ' Officials of the Richmond division of the Pennsylvania are of the opinion
that E. B. McCabe mentioned in dispatch from Philadelphia printed elsewhere in this edition should have heen E. B. Taylor. Mr. McCabe Is not head of the finance and accounts. There is some speculation on the part of officials here as to what changes will be made in the division when the changes in the Pennsylvania system,' announced recently by Samuel Kea, president of the company become effective. In the announcement made by President Rea. no northern boundary Is made for the southwest region. The southwest region, under that region, is bounded by St. Louis, Columbus and Cincinnati. The northwest region is comprised of the lines from Columbus to Chicago by way of Crestline, O. Under this grouping, no provision Is made for that part of the Richmond division, north of this city, for the G. R. and I., from Richmond to Fort "Wayne, or for the line from Bradford, O., to Chicago, by way of Logansport. Officials hre are of the opinion that ' these lines will be included in
the southwest region, although no instruction . concerning the proposed change . has . been received at the offices of the Richmond division.

forces as I have seen among our

"The spirit of harmony and unity
manifested in working with our siste,
church in the same city is an inspiration and a great step, forward. "Through the faithfulness of our young Cuban people, especially those who have the work at heart, the services have doubled and even tripled in attendance at the various meetings.

cause we know there's something
wrong within the construction and makeup of our society. We desire to help build a political organization that will be beneficial to ourselves, to our homes.
