WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 26, 1928 ROTARY OBSERVES “GHRISTMAS; HEARS SONG-TALK PROGRAM The Rev. G. LeRoy White Is Speaker; Analyzes Peace, Goodwill and Joy The Rotary luncheon was turned Into a Christmas celebration, today. With a quartet present to sing special hymn numbers and a minisicr to say fitting words on the meaning of the “festival, the club made an impressive vecasion of the luncheon. The singers were Barnes, Mrs. E. J. Bavendick, Henr: Halverson and George Humphrey: «Mrs, R. E. Morris was accompanis' The Rev. G. LeRoy White of thc, Methodist church was the speaker. Besides these participants in the program, the club had as other guests Robert Wilson and Robert Birdzell./ The only business was the appoint- ment of Clyde Young and George, Constans as the January program committee. The quartet was first called on and started the day’s program with sev- eral hymns. These were “Deck the Hall,’ “The First Noel,” “It Came Upon a Midnight Clear,” and “Sing, O Heavens.” Speaking of the literary quality of the scriptures as simple and yet ele- vating stories, the Rev. Mr. White be- gan by referring to their stirring in- gfluence upon the layman. The con- tact of one's early years with these Bible narratives, he said, becomes a force in maturer years of life. Out of the narrative of the birth of | | Lady Elizabeth Townshend, 10-year-old daughter of the Marchioness of Christ, the speaker selected three} Townshend, is new lady mayoress of King’s Lynn, England, where her outstanding words and analyzed them. The words were peace, goodwill, and joy. Peace he defined as adjustment to environment. It means reaching out toward God. And God reaches down at the same time. It was, he said, a process like building the great St. Gothard tunnel, working from both ends with such precise engineer- ing that both bores met with exacti- tude. In men that reaching out for God connects with just as much ex- actitude, and that is peace. Peace accomplished, the speaker said, man seeks to radiate his feelings. He sets about to disseminate goodwill. He wants to make others happy. «The two bring that other emotional “impulse which is called joy. ‘To be ‘at peace and to sirive to do good to others, he said, inspires happiness. It brings joy. “UNTED STATES ‘FLU CASES NEAR MILLION Peak of Epidemic Is Not Yet Reached but Is Decreasing in Western States Washington, Dec, 26.—(AP)—Pub- lic health officials said today that complete reports on influenza during ¢the holiday period probably would ‘indicate more than a million cases in the United States. Preliminary reports received today indicated at least 770,160 cases in 22 states, public health officials said, for the week ended December 22, compared with 518,715 cases in these states the previous week. Officials based this comparison on actual re- ports of 154,032 for the latter and of 103,743 for. the former week. They added that while last week's reports showed the number of cases decreas- ing in some western states, the de- crease is more than counterbalanced by increases in others. It is not probable, they said, that the peak of the epidemic has been reached. “Reports received probably are in- complete because of the holidays,” it “was said, and “since these indicate more than three-quarters of a million cases, it is probable that complete re- ports will show well over a million oF BSCS.” The number of cases in states re- ported today follow: Kansas 17,617; Maine 46; Montana 4,031; New Mexico 1,161; Illinois 2,408; New Jersey 219; Nebraska 1,704; Wisconsin 14,724; Iowa 85,000; Delaware 10; Connecticut 144; Ore- gon 1,605; Arizona 933; North Dakota 21,346; Utah 63; Florida 228; Texas 992; Louisiana 121; Missouri 1,184; South Dakota 103; Maryland 628; Washington 766. 39 Saved az Pacific Ships Face Disaster Seattle, Dec. 26.—(AP)—Wireless advices to the coast guard cutter Unalga today indicated that two disabled vessels in the North Pa- cific which for several days have been staving off disaster by only nar- row margins had been saved. Thirty nine persons are aboard the two ships. The reports said that the sea tug Roosevelt, which became famous as the craft used by Robert E. Peary, when he discovered the North Pole. in 1909, had been towed safely to the lee of Cape St. Elias after a hard fight to keep it from going cn a reef. "Whe other distressed vessel, the Starr, with 23 persons aboard, was hing held off Wessels Reef, Afaska, by her anchor while the steamer North- cmvestern stood by. Summary Executions Are Abolished by Gil Mexico City, Dec. 26.—(AP)—Aboli- tion of summary executions has been ordered by X military commanders throug! out the country. Heretofore it has “been the practice for military com- manders to execute insurgents. mother is mayor. King’s Lynn, England, Dec. 26.—(P) This little town on the Cross Keys ,; Wash, where King John lost his crown jewels 700 years ago when his treasure wagon sank in the quicksand, has a |10-year-old lady mayoress, She as- sumed office November 9. She shares the spotlight of public interest with Mrs. Crichton of York, the third English woman to atiain the rank of lord mayor. Mrs. Crichton, too, has just assumed office. The youthful mayoress of King's Lynn is Lady Elizabeth Townshend, whose mother, the Marchioness of Townshend, has just become mayor. She is one of the wealthiest little \girls in England, but she thinks her new job is going to be the ‘best fun” she has ever had. It is no honorary post. Lady mayoresses in England, who are usually the wives, sisters or | daughters of mayors, have official du- | ties, which, however, are mainly social. | “I am looking forward to giving a |big party for the children,” she told reporters, with simple dignity. “Of course,” she added shyly, “I shall be a bit nervous about making a speech. But I shan’t say very much when I do have to.” Lady Elizabeth is the sister of 12- year-old Lord Townshend, who was FRED THOMSON, 37, SCREEN ACTOR, DIES |Former Minister, Stunt Man and Western Star Fails to Rally After Operation Los Angeles, Dec. 26.—(?)—Fred C. Thomson, screen actor featured in western roles, died here shortly be- fore midnight last night. He failed \to rally from an operation for gall stones, performed three weeks ago. Thomson who began career as an athlete “double” stunt man took a turn for the worst yesterday morning after several blood transfusions. His illness had extend- ed over a greater part of a year. An ordained pastor in Nevada and chaplain of the 145th field artillery, 40th division, in the world war, Thomson often said that he had en- tered motion pictures because he felt he could deliver as great a message through clean, wholesome films, as from the pulpit. He met Francis Marion, scenario writer, in Paris and married her November 2, 1919. Soon afterwards he started motion picture work. His first western release was | filmed in 1923. Thomson was born February 26, 1891, in Pasadena, Calif. He distin- guished himself as an athlete at Oc- cidental college, Los Angeles, and lat- er at Princeton, where he took post- graduate work for the ministry in 1912 and 1913. University Students Promised Much Study Grand Forks, N. D., Dec. 26.— “Double drill and no canteen” or in other words, heavy doses of work, await students at the University of North Dakota when they return to school Jan. 3 following a vacation of more than three weeks, according to faculty members who point out that final examinations will get under way Jan. 23. The vacation this year was unduly long because of the precautionary measure against a threatened influ- his screen | and | The official duties are mostly social. threatened by anonymous letters to his mother two years ago with kid- naping unless the marchioness paid of the largest estates in England. ‘When reporters asked Lady Eliza- beth if she were not nervous over the big responsibility involved by enter- ing politics so young she replied: “Well, not much. I think I shall like it. I shall not be able to go with mother everywhere, of course, because of my studies, but I hope to be with mother in my official duty when she appears in public.” Lady Townshend does not plan to allow her daughter to wear the usual robes of office of lady mayoresses, but will let her wear the gold chain of of- fice which goes around her neck. During the municipal year of 1927- 28 there have been 14 women mayors in England, the largest number since 1924-25, when there were seven. The first woman lord mayor in England was Miss Mary Colman, elected in 1924 at Norwich. Fifteen years before that England saw the | first woman mayor. The title lord mayor is a dignity conferred upon certain British mu- nicipalities by the king: There are now 17 cities in England and Wales with lord mayors. Gruman Is Reported Slightly Improved John Gruman, Glen Ullin, who is in a local hospital with a broken back, broken pelvis and collar bone was reported as slightly improved in condition today. Gruman received his injuries in an automobile accident in which George Hardinger, also of Glen Ullin, was killed. SELLS SEAT FOR $530,000 New York, Charles E. Lawrence bought a mem- \bership on the New York exchange for $1,000. His son, Aston C. is re- tiring at the close of the year, hav- ing sold the seat for $530,000. A few |years ago he thought of selling for | $12,000. Recently a deal for the sale jat $470,000 fell through.” AMELIA TAKES RIDE Newark, N. J., Dec. 26.—()—A | Christmas gift from Amelia Earhart to her mother was a $5 airplane ride. They took a night trip in a commer- cial plane with 17 other passengers. Miss Earhart insisted on paying the same tariff as everybody else. ‘SMOKE’ CAUSES DEATH Chicago, Dec. 26.—(7)—Fire in a mattress, started by a cigaret, caused the death of Mrs. Viola O'Brien Wal- borate 18, waitress, formerly of Ely, HOUSE HELPING CLEVELAND House, captain of the Yale swim- ming team and thc intercollegiate record holder in the back stroke, is now one of the star members of the Cleveland Athletic club team. ‘The latest official report shows that, there are 910 industrial plants in the Maritime Provinces of Canada— Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.

Dec. 26.—(7)— President and Mrs. Coolidge arrived in Brunswick at 9 o'clock this morn- ing and left’ immediately for Sapelo Island for their mid-winter vacation as guests of Howard E. Coffin. A citizens committee extended a welcome to the president as he stepped from the train. Mrs. Cool- idge, leading her little red chow on a leash, was presented with a bouquet. Several hundred persons, massed about the station, cheered lustily as | the President and Mrs. Coolidge | emerged from the train and posed for photographers. There was a sharp tang in the air as the chief executive arrived for his shooting on Mr. Coffin's preserves on Sapelo Island and Mrs. Coolidge was wrapped in her fur coat. Mr. and Mrs. Coolidge will reside at Mr. Coffin’s home on Sapelo Island during their Christmas stay here. Christmas night passed quietly on the Coolidge train. The President and Mrs. Coolidge spent the time in reading and conversation and in showering attentions upon “Tiny Tim” the fluffy, dog, a favorite among the White House pets. Sapelo Island and the group of. which it is a part are rich in romance and history. Successively, they have been occupied by explorers, mission- aries, pirates, and French noblemen. They were first settled by the Spanish Pioneers who crossed the Atlantic soon after Columbus’ second voyage to the land of his discovery. Shortly afterwards came the missionaries, only to be driven away or killed by Indians, Many old ruins left by the Span- jards still stand upon the island. Mr. Coffin has stocked the fields and woodlands of his island retreat with game of many kinds, assuring Presi- dent Coolidge an opportunity to try his skil! with the shot gun once more. Fish are plentiful in the waters near- by, and Mr. Coolidge will also have the opportunity for indulging in an- other of his favorite recreations. file ee ss !
