Tsuneo Matsudaira, Japanese Am- bassador, was the principal speaker the meeting, which was attended by more than 400 persons representing cvery Episcopal parish in the District Unable to attend the dinner which preceded the meeting, the Japanese Ambassador was given an ovation he entered the hall of the church, where the meeting was held. The { meeting room was decorated with cut roses, snowballs and other flowers which Rev. Robert Johnston, rector of St. John's Church, the presiding cer, announced were the gift of Coolidge. Right Rev. James Freeman, Bishop of Washington, was unable to attend the meeting. Instructions were given the mem- bers of the 40 teams for the drive. Lists of the communicants of ever | parish in the city will be distributed | among the teams, and an_effort he made to see every Episcopalian listed. The teams have seven mem- | bers, each under a captain. The cam- {paign is being conducted under the direction of Bishop Freeman, with Dr. Johnston as his principal assistant. | . The Japanese Ambassador was the first speaker. He said Work Is Appreciated. “For a number of vears I have had occasion to watch the work of the missions in Japan. The efforts of mis- | sionaries among our people in Japan are highly appreciated. 1 know sonally of the work of St. pital in Tokio. It is a fine institutio! The work is high press the ardent hope that the effort to restore the hospital and other mis- sion work is successful.” In announcing the purpose of the meeting and of the campaign, Dr. | Thompson said: “It was through no fault of ours, it was in the providence of God, that the work that it had taken us 50 vears to build up in Tokio has been destroyed. It has been the de- cision of the bishops of the church that we rebuild it all and go on with what we were doing in Japan. That is the reason for this drive." Dr. Thompson introduced Dr. R. B. Teusler, superintendent of St. Luke's International Hospital, Tokio. Dr. Teusler has been in Tokio at the head of the hospital for a number of vear: The hospital was completely des in the earthquake and the fire which swept Tokio after the disaster.

Sturgis, educational secretary of the department of missions of the Epis- copal Church. from a survey of Episcopal missions all over the world and concluded his tour in Japan. He said: Church Stabilizing Force. “Missions in Japan have become of such paramount importance in the in- ternational situation that they have to be taken into account. Christianity is a vital factor in international life. “I do not mean to be funny, I onl. mean to tell the truth when I say that the world today is in a hell of a mess. It is a place of greed, sus- picion, threatened wars, rebellion and lust. ‘In the midst of ‘all this chaos stands the only stable institution in the world—the Christian Church. There is no nationalism in the church. It is essentially international. Its membership — this denomination _of ours 20,000,000 people, in a dis- ordered world. Where the American flag floats, where the standard of the British Empire is. there stands a great stabilizing force. “That force of stability has received a blow and its force is felt all over the church. The body has been wounded—badly—and it must be heal- ed. We've let 18 months go by. We can waste no more time. have seen the quality of the Christians being produced in Japan, and it has made me think that some dime Japan will be sending men to the United States to Christianize our church here.

By the Associated Press. H. M. S. REPULSE, OFF SOUTH- WEST AFRICA, April 25 (by wireless via Walvis Bay).—The ceremonies of initiation into Neptune’s realm being concluded and the 900 novices aboard the Repulse fully recovered from the |ordeal attendant upon' their first crossing of the equator, the ships company yesterday gave themselves over to festivities which continued throughout the night. A fancy dress affair was held, and proved most successful, with the Prince of Wales taking an active part in the proceedings. The charms of the “ladies” present were irresistible, and the prince had many a hearty laugh over the antics of the be-fur- belowed sailors. Wales had several dances with these charmers and then awarded the prizes for the best costumes. Later he took charge of the drums In the band. Wales Turns to Poetry. LONDON, April —The verse which the Prince of Wales wrote on the battle cruiser Repulse as the war- ship bearing him down the African Coast from Lagos crossed the equator yesterday has been made public. When Kather Neptune presented an address offering the prince the hand of his “daughter.” a green-gowned sailor lad with a “fighting” face, the prince responded with this verse: “I thank you for your kind suggestion About your beautiful princess; But may I ask you just one question— ‘Where in ‘hell did she get that dre in spite of all, spurn her, Though your offer makes me proud. Yes, my king, I must return her: Pets on board are not allowed.” S Maj. Thompson Ordered to Duty. Maj. John R. Thompson, Corps of Engineers Reserve, in this city, has been ordered to duty in training in the office of the Assistant Secretary of War. But, I'm forced to even down to the kindergarten. “Those people are literally giving of their penury to have their missions continued. We must give of our plenty. “The Senate of the United States has almost completed our undoing.

Archbishop Curley has selected the priest who will be appointed pastor of St. Paul's Church, Fifteenth and V streets, as successor to the late Mgr. James F. Mackin, it was reported in Catholic circles today. No intimation could be secured from the archbishop’s office in Baltimore, however, regarding when the suc- cessor to Mgr. Mackin would be an- nounced. Rev. Louis Stickney, who has been at the cathedral in Baltimore for many vears, is prominently mentioned as likely to be named pastor of St. Paul's parish. He previously was considered for several Washington appointments. Father Harrington, pastor in Hagers- town for a long time and who has been doing excellent work in country parishes for more than years, is another priest who is being mentioned as a possible successor to Father Mackin.
