Chicago, Aug. 8.—Representatives
of the Methodist Episcopal Church and day for Cross Hill and adjacent

establishing a great university in
Kansas City.

that body was organized, it was stat
ed. The commission was formed by
the counties of Beaufort, Hampton
and Jasper to join with adjacent coun
ties in Georgia in the construction of
droughty conditions in the southwest
portion of the state, since relieved by
general rains. In Mississippi and
Alabama, the prospects for a good
crop continued to develop with suffi
cient but not excessive rainfall in
a bridge over the Savannah river. . , ,, . . ^ ,
Bonds to the amount of $150,000 most sections and slight insect dam
were issued by the three counties
toward 'financing the project. It
was in the administration of these
funds that the alleged defalcation
was reported to have occurred.
Mr.. McGowan, m his report to
the commision, stated that to the
best of his knowledge the defalca
tion charged to Mr. Thomas took
place before he took office as chief
commissioner. He said that he had
made no effort to have the former
secretary qrfested or apprehended
as he ‘“saw no reason for it” and
did not “consider it as coming with

age to date.
“In Arkansas the crop has improv
ed everywhere in the State due to
timely rains, except in portions of the
South, Central and Southeastern dis
tricts. Fruiting is heavy. The boll
weevil is being reported from a great
er of points but damage to date is not
material except in few counties.
“In Georgia, good conditions still
prevail, in the Southern half of the
State, although not as good as they
were on July 16. In the North Cen
tral and Northeastern Piedmont area
the long drought has greatly damaged
the crop. Similarly in South Carolina
the Central and Coastal districts have
a good condition, while the condition
in the Piedmont district has contin
ued low owing to the long drought
period. While dry spells in these
States have injured the plant they
will warmly endorse the project next
week.

The Kansas City chamber of com
merce is cooperating with the church
es in the enterprise.
The university: will be “distinctly
religious” but will be of a grade rank
ing it with the leading institutions of
higher learning in the United Spates.
“Christianity will be right at the
heart of the institution,” Bishop Wal
dorf said. “Education with God in it,
will be the ideal, with the moral and
spiritual values carefully cared for,
but the institution will be primarily
one of learning.
Regular Business Session Was Short,
Only One or Two Matters Coining
Up For Consideration.
The August iheeting of the Com
mercial club was held in the the club j n States east of the Mississippi
er time. His subject Sunday morn
ing, "Effectual Praying,” was deliver
ed in a very pleasing and effective
manner, and was received by the audi
ence very graciously. At the evening
hour he spoke on “Why Our Prayers
Are. Not Answered.” It was a mes
sage of great earnestness and power,
and the speaker made it plain why
many of our prayers go unanswered.
Another attractive feature of the
meeting is the singing led by Mr. R.
M. Hickman, formerly of the Home
Mission board. He made his appear
ance Supday morning and in the very the petitions in baud'covering the pro-
firat service won the hearts and con
fidence of the people. He has a pleas
ing personality, and is gifted with a
fine strain of humor. The big choir
he has organized is doing splendid
singing. In addition to his ability as
a leader of song, he delights his audi
ences with his solos. And it is worth
a lot to hear him play his xylophone.
This instrument he uses in an effect
ive way, and it adds to the music,
end is a delight to the congregations.
The institution has been made pos
sible by the generosity of Mrs. Kate
W. Hewitt, of Kansas City, who trans
ferred to the church a 147 acre site
near the state line for less than one-
third of its estimated value.
CLUB NIGHTS

Dr. Taylor plays the coronet beauti
fully, and this helps a great deal in
the song service, itlrx. Taylor, wife
of the evangelist, is the pianist, and
she knows her part and does it just

This revival is not merely for the
people of Cross Hill, but for all who

Citizens living on the following
streets should take notice that Coun
cil has not authorized the paving on
their streets to the full limit as ori
ginally petitioned, and therefore the
original petitions will be useless for
the paving contemplated by Council.
New petitions will be required as
follows:
North Broadway from old paving to
north side of lot occupied by Mrs.
Norman.
Musgtove from Ferguson street to
north corner of H. D. Rantin’s pro-
P«ty. . .
Florida street from Clay street to
east corner of new graded school.
North Adair street from East Caro
lina avenue to Phillips street. t '
South Adair street from East Caro
lina avenue to College Plaza.
Calvert avenue from Woodrow street
to South Adair street. ’
East Carolina avenue, north side,
from end of paving at Woodrow street
crossing to North Adair street and
troni Holland street to Hays street.
Cleveland street from Centennial
street to Calvert avenue. ' *
Bailey street from Pitts street to
Academy.
Washington street from Sloan to C.
N. A L. side track. *
Those interested in the paving of
those streets should apply to the may
or for proper forms and circulate the
petitions again covering the above
areas on the above streets. Nothing
can be done by council looking to the
paving of these streets until they have
limits as authorized to be paved
by council. The authorization has no
effect, however, without an ordinance
assessing abutting property within
the liipits of the petitions, and the
petitions must coincide with the de
signation of council in regard to the
area to be paved on each street.
Delays in paving may occur from
delays in circulating and turning in
these more limited petitions. Hence
this notice, so, that all citizens resi
dent on above streets may protect
their interest by actively circulating
the neeessary petitions. •

“Owing to the protracted drought

tions: » -
“First, to "be' seeded at once on
very rich, moist land, 20 or 25 to 30
pounds of millet. With a favorable
season, these should produce hay be
fore frost. - These crops are subject
to the same danger of poisoning live
stock as sorghum when grazed fol
lowing a severe drought. The mix
ing of, soy Beans or cow peas with the
above will make the hay more valua-
ble. _ '■
“Second, wheq; land can be gitazed,
the early seeding of Abruzzi rye for
fall and winter grazing. *
“Third, beginning in September,
large acreages .of oats and vetch for
early spring should be seeded. This
hay is of high feeding value for work
stock. By using it the grain rations^ sur P as * s ™ ern a ‘‘
can be reduced. / .
“Fourth, for fall and winter garden,
the following should be planted at
once: rutabaga turnips, beets, carrots,
bunch beans, kale, seven top turnips
for salad, lettuce and onions. Cab
bage and collards should: be set out.”
