It had been customary for the- members of the organization to meet here the second Sunday of each June at "the century-old Christian church and chant the "numbers" of the ancient hymnals, hymns without words and Indicated by "buckwheat notes, but owing to the

the revival meetings will start. Morality at Low Ebb
The Rev. J. Bushwhang of Indianap
olis, who - conducted, church services
last Sunday, asserted that the Ameri
can people had drifted away from the
influence of the church with the re
sult that national morality was now
at the lowest standard in the repub
lic s history. Unless" the Christian men and worn
en of the country squarely meet the
situation which now confronts the nation and assume the full responsibil-
ty of their citizenship America is
doomed, the Rev. Bushwhang declared.
He asserted that one of the first
acts looking toward the restoration of
Christian standards of living should be
tne restoration or tne BiDie to tne educational institutions of the country. Need Fear of God
"Our children must be brought up
in the fear of God," the minister said. He said that the younger generation's loose morals could be charged, in a large measure, to the carelessness
of parents. Elihu Harlan, a Des Moines, la. .attorney, was a recent visitor in Bethel
Mr. Harlan came here to secure a
family record. The Harlan and the
Andersons . were the founders of
Bethel. Members of the two families erected the Christian church, which is now 101 years old, and haa a record of never having missed a communion

Mrs. Charles Anderson.

Use Of Par Clearance System For Checks Urged
By Chambers Of Commerce
(By Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, Oct 21. Use of
the par clearance system for checks
as a universal banking practice is ad
vocated by member organizations of
the Chamber of Commerce of the
United States, representing 1,735 votes, while there were 72 votes cast
. against the proposition on a referen
dum, it was announced today by the
chamber.
The question of par clearance has
long been one of controversy and has resulted in several states in litigation because of the federal reserve board's
order that member banks handlo checks without exacting a collection
charge.
The action of the chamber's mem
ber Organizations was based on a report by a special committee, which
studied the subject and reported that for August, the last month for which
complete statistics were available,
27,884 banks were handling checks at
par, while 2,281 were requiring charge for collection. !
The charge, the committee found,
ranged from one-tenth to one-eighth of one per cent, and the report repre
sented it as an unjust burden upon customers of banks and through them upon the business of the country. Texas Senatorial Race Deep In Legal Maze (By Associated Praes) DALLAS. Tex., Oct 31.

America is due to hold her lead of
the world in amateur development,
says Lee DeForest, after returning
from an European trip. Great Britain is developing a better broadcastins
system, though dividing the Island in-; to zones with one station in each, alii controlled by a single organization, In
which all manufacturers co-operate.
Germany surpasses this country In

work Is still hampered by restrictions
on the sale of apparatus. Great Britain Is producing 10 K. W. tubes in commercial quantities, while we can only, produce IK. W. tubes.
Radio Movie The radio transmission of speaking
moving pictures Is waiting only on solution -of minor technical problems.
says Mr. De Forest The transmis
sion of phono-fllms. that is, reproduc
tion of sound from a photographic film, will be more quickly developed, he believes, than the application of the same principle to pictures. The phono-film, or photograph of a piece of music will be used as are phonograph records, to preserve broadcast programs given by artists, and permit
their repetition.
Speaking movies simply have the
sounds wiotographed on the same film
beside the pictures. The broadcasting
apparatus for them will cost only
about -f 2,000 and receiving apparatus
about 1300. The sound projectors which wtjl he connected to the receiving sets can be fitted to any standard projection machine.

Some producers of vaudeville and
other stage entertainment have prohibited their actors from giving broadcast programs, which will be little loss
to the radio world, in the opinion of many.
Most stage acts depend upon action
for their interest and none of this is broadcasted, yet The voice, which is broadcasted, is most frequently of a poor order, so that what is said comes through very indistinctly or in an un
interesting flat tone. Madame Irene Pavloska, Polish opera star with the

It heats 3 to 6 connecting rooms (8,000 cu. ft. by actual scientific measurements) better than the ordinary stove heats one. When we say better, we mean more uniformly, more economically and more healthfully. That's because the Heatrola works on exactly the same principle as a high-grade pipeless furnace by circulating warm', moist air not by radiating dry heat, as does the ordinary stove.
