(UP)—Peril in the beauty of church services is scen by Nadejda Krupskaya, widow of Nicholai Lenin, the former Bol- munists that the dramatic religious rites of the old Russtan Orthodox Church constitute a grave danger to the atheistic teachings of the Com- munists because they attract the e to enter the churches. urch art is widely dissemi- rated and it is often the only art accessible to the peopls,” she said “Weyguust find something more in- teresting than church art and church drama to give to them, then they will stop going to church.” #She told about a meeting in village near Pskoff, when a travel- ing moving picture performance drew the villagers away from the churches during the sacred Passion Week. But when the moving picture show had gone, she said, the peas- ants with one accord went back to the churches to take part in the solemn and beautiful ceremonies of sanctifying the ‘“kulichi” special Passion Week cakes. “The Communist Youth Unlon,” Mme. Krupskaya said, “is going right in encouraging accordion play- ink competitions and in devising other distractions, to satisfy the people’s desire for beauty and art somewhere else than in church.” Mrs. Lindbergh Turns Down Big Movie Offer Detroit, May 24.—M— Mrs. Evangeline Lodge Lindbergh has no intention of commercializing fame gained by her son C through his New York-Paris flight. She has emphatically refused to con- sider a movie contract for more than $100,000 to appear in a mother scene. Mrs. Lindbergi, a hi instructor in chemistry, was ap- proached vesterday by ons of the leading motion picture companies and while the exact sum offered was not revealed, it was officially stated that “it ran well into five figur John C.

The luncifeon hall was so packed that the gudests had to sit in closer quarters than did Lindbergh in the little wicker seat of his airplane during the long flight from New York to Parls. The hallways and reception rooms were crowded with people not lucky enough to get tickets to the lunch- con but glad enough to get a glimpse | of the hero as he passed. Masons, carpenters and laborers working on buildings under construction on the opposite side of the new boulevard laid down their tools and crowded |to the scaffoldings to see Lindbergh as he arrived. Lindbergh got a tasta of home cooking in the course of the lunch- con, which was decidedly ipterna- tional in flavor. Vermont sausages wiched in between Russian eggs, French potatoes and 1 new ice cream called “Bombe Glacee Lind- bergh.” Another dish was “Filet De Barbue a L’Americaine.” were sand- CENTRAL JR. H. S.
