ASK U. S. TRAVELERS

RELATION OF NATION ON WAR QUESTIONS

EUROPE'S GREATEST WOMAN AQUATIC STAR.

(Ev Associated Press) CHICAGO, June 30. The relation America la to have to the settlement of questions raised by the war 13 one of the most urgent questions asked American travelers In Europe, Rev. Charles E. Guthrie of Chicago, gener

al secretary of the Epworth . League said in his report to the annual meet-, lng of the Epworth League Board to

day.

Dr. Guthrie has Just returned from two and one half months in Europe

In the Interest of young people's Christian work, his visit taking him to

France, Italy, Switzerland,. Austria,

Hungary, Germany, Denmark, Nor way and Sweden. If Europe Is left to herself to set

tie those questions Dr. Guthrie said,

"another, and if possible a more bit

.ter, conflict Is as certain to come as tomorrow's sun Is certain to rise. And If it does come to pass America will

have to bear a tremendous part of

the responsibility for it. Government Influence Great

"No nation on -earth has the influenc or is in a position to do as much' to bring about a basis of permanent peace among, those who have been embroiled in war than is our government. The influence, the confidence and the yearjiing desire for. American participation amounts almost to worEhiD. "The financial and moral leadership given the United States coincident with the prohibition era is - a thing that is recognized everywhere. "Children from school on their way home thread their way through the banking district and look eagerly into the windows with the question, (iJow is the dollar today? The AmerlSAn dollar settles the question of how much food and how much comfort teMrs are to have from day to day. There is no doubt In the world that the war spirit among the older peoplo Is as much alive today as It was during the war in large sections of Europe, but happily this is not true among the young people who must do the fighting if another war is brought

on. They believe In a better way and if given an. opportunity will find a method to bring it about."

For the benefit of those who have not yet witnessed the expose of a most thrilling stunt the audience Is' requested to "keep It dark."

MURRAY VAUDEVILLE While there is no spectacular act playing on the bill showing at the Murray theatre this last half, each of the four provides easily enjoyed diversion. The feature act is that of Ward and Dooley. Exhibitions of rope throwing and handling, and well presented dance numbers, furnish the main en

tertainment. It is a pleasant act by

pleasant people.

One is helped this warm weather by

appointed regular clerk.

An examination was taken by Mr. Wardlow at Cincinnati, Jan. 2 of this year. Since that time he has been on the eligible list for the appointment

just received. He ends his duties here Friday. Superintendent of Mails Clarence

I Foreman said Friday that Mr. Ward-

low was one of the best men serving in the Richmond postoffice, and expressed fegret at his loss, even while happy to see his clerk receive the position.

He tried so hard to be straight ti at he was crooked; In his thought oQgood he was rotten. . Niles Welch is the manly sweetheart who is ready to make the supreme sacrifice to pixrtect the girl he loved. Frank Campeau is David Boyd, as filthy of mind as of habit.

tending a manufacturers' convention

Mrs. Walter H. Bates of South Thirteenth street, arrived in Richmond on Saturday afternoon, and Walter Is happy - once more. Mrs. Bates has been visiting friends in Evanston, 111. Our regular meeting was held on

Saturday evening, June 24, with President Beck presiding, Secretary Hasty

reading the minutes of the last meet

ing, which were approved as read,

The board of directors have leased

our present quarters for a term of two

vears. which means that 24 Nortn

Ninth street will continue to be T. P. A. headquarters for the above mentioned time. Reports from all those members who attended the national convention at Atlantic City were received, and Post C can well congratulate Itself

on having such a fine representation in the National body. Our delegates think the convention was a distinct success, and that national T. P. A. interests were much advanced. Post C is against so large a representation of delegats, both state and national, for we believe that just as much good could be accomplished with half the number that now atends our conventions. But Post C does not propose to "sulkt in its tent" just because we

did not get what we wanted, but proposes to go ahead, seek more members, and be a better T. P. A- than before. At the national convention Just closed the following changes were made to our constitution, and I would particularly call attention of every member of Post C to these amendments. Heretofore, we have paid $11 per year, which in case of accident, entitled the insured to a weekly, indemnity of $25 per week, a stated sum for loss of eye, hand or foot, and $5,000 in case of death. These sums remain in force now. but the National convention has made a rule whereby any member in good standing can pay $20 per year and draw double the

above named amount. . Think of it.

you members of Post C. for a pay

ment of $20 a year, you would receive in case of accident, $50 per week, and $10,000 in case of death. It also, has

been a rule that whenecer a member

lost an eve. hand of foot, he was

dropped from the rolls of the T. P. A. Such now la not the case, for any member being so unfortunate as to meet with a loss. of eye, hand or foot, is continued on the roll by paying $11 per year, but would be entitled to but half the weekly indemnity. Allow me to make this very plain to all Post C

members. Class A is our present form costing $11 per year. Class B is $20 per year, but double indemnity. Class C Those members who would lose an eye, hand or foot, are continued on the rolls as members by paying $11 a year, receiving in case of accident, half amount of indemnity, or $12.50 a week, and $2,500 at death by accident. All members 55 years of age or older, will have until Nov. 1, 1922 only ,to come under the double indemnity form ,and you must act at once, and get in touch with your secretary, who will make out for you the proper application, which would entitle you to increased insurance. All members can see Mr. Hasty at our club rooms almost any night, and you will be quite sure of seeing him there any Friday or Saturday evening. I am told that there were so many fishermen on Green's Fork last Sun

day, they had to draw cuts for places on the bank to fish. We hear that Elmer Lebo and John Highley. while at Atlantic City, spent a lot of time on the board walk, "showing off" those new suits. The T. P. A. picnic will be held on Saturday afternoon, July 1, In the park at Fountain City. The committee thought this would be the beter place and more accessible than the picnic grounds on the Pyle farm. Every person knows where beautiful Fountain City is locatedT and the park Is Just the place at which the T. P. A. boys and girls should" gambol on the green. You beads of, families, you who earn your living by the sweat of your brow, please do not forget to bring a generous supply of bacon and eggs, which will be cooked at the picnic grounds, and any stray bits of food the good wives can find about the house, please bring them along. T. N. Hill, J. P. Highley and Ansel Dwiggins are the principal entertainers, with Daddy Kramer and President Beck as chief

firemen, and Marcus Hasty acting as chief cook. Then there will be an egg eating contest between Elmer Lebo, Walter Bates and Leroy Browne, and may the best man win. Leroy Browne has returned from Martinsville, and we are glad to learn that the time 6pent there was very beneficial to his health. .
