C2ltt Crooks Identifying Themselves With Charitable Institutions Make Money. Baltimore, May a. Certain enterprising gents, with a flair for identifying themselves with religions and charitable institutions, have been doing a brisk business in Baltimore during the last few days by operating an old flim-flam game. Tou know the game: The phone rings and a voice says please send so-and-so to such-and-such an address, and, by the way, send change for a bill of a certain denomination. There are hitches but finally the voice has the charge and the store or restaurant has nothing except a red face caused by embarrassment.

Police received reports on two cases yesterday. One wanted $4 worth of syrup to be sent to the orphanage connected with St. Taul's Lutheran church and chenge for $20. A man was waiting outside when the messenger appeared, took the change and eaid he would run inside to get the $20 bill. The syrup was found abandoned around a corner of the orphanage.

Another man was to "donate" brooms to the St. Joseph's Catholic church rectory. The brooms, $1.75 worth of them, were sent and the messenger aske to run back to the store for change for $10. When the atmosphere cleared the store was out and a priest told how a man had handed him eight brooms and asked that his name not be mentioned with the gift. There was still another case where a bakery was asked to send pastry to St.

Peter's convent and a man outside made way with the change for $10. DTCATns TAST XIGHT (By Associated Press) Hollywood, Calif. John H. Mc Lean, 72, former general manager of the Oliver Iron Mining company of rJuluth. Mnn.

Lot of Work Remains There is still a lot of work to be done in organizing legislation to accomplish this program. It involves relaxation of the anti-trust laws. Also, apparently, it Involves substitution of the 30-hour work week bill already passed by the senate and now before the house. Secretary Perkins haa projected a plan for government control over wages and hours of work. This legislation apparently is to fe the alternative to voluntary industrial submission to the Roosevelt plan of government supervision.

Leaders of the Chamber of Commerce have been driving strongly for government supervision rather than government control. One after another they have urged it. Slight Upturn in Industry Discussing the national situation, Mr. Roosevelt told the chambei there has been "a slight but upturn in most industries with a simultaneous rise In most commodity prices." experience Indicates," he added, "that when the price level begins to rise after a long period of declining commodity prices, wages which have been previously curtailed lag behind the rise in price levels.

K. G1LROV, D. D. Kditor of The Congrcgatioualist It would be interesting if we could know whether the two incidents in this lesson were originally as closely associated as they are in the narrative. As the disciples were journeying toward Jerusalem, Jesus went ahead of them.

He was evidently deeply engrossed in thought and there was something so strange about his manner that th disciples were both amazed and afraid. Then Jesus took them aside and told tlienv of his forebodings. They were going up to Jerusalem where the Son of Man was to be mocked and scourged and put to death; but through; tragedy there was to be triumph, for after three days he should rise again. Immediately there follows the story of James and John, the sons of Zebedee, making the request that when Jesus came Into his kingdom they should sit the one on the right hand and the other on the left. Did James and John sense the sufferings through which the Master was to pass and of which he had been telling them, or did they think of these sufferings as to be courageously borne in the fulfilment of their ambition and in their hope of sharing the glory of the kingdom? We cannot tell, but when Jesus put to them the extreme test whether they were able to pass through any ordeal with him, their reply was very decided.

They were abie. One cannot fail to respect the intensity and capacity for endurance of such men. But how strange that such strong characters should be filled with such meaningless ambition as led them to aspire for the high places of preferment! TOILET SOAP Head 3 Bars LUX Wealthy Woman Suicide Left Weird Instructions For Her Rites Los Angeles, May 5. UP) The strange, three-day funeral of wealthy, 49-year-old Margaret Keith ended late yesterday with a concert of classical music. Her lart instructions were for cremation and the scattering of the ashes to the winds because, she wrote just before she killed herself in her Beverly Hills mansion last Friday, she had loved the wide spaces too much in life to permit her body to be confined in death.

Barbecue Mutton, Country Ham Head's Grocery Meat Market 720 WEST SECOND STREET How little they understood the purpose of Jesus, and his ambition only to be faithful to the will of God and to bring salvation his fellow men! Jesus accepted the earnest devotion of the ambitious disciples, but he made it plain that their zeai must have higher and more unselfish ends that the of preferment to which they were aspiring could be given only to those for whom that destiny had bee" prepared by God. That such ambition on the part of two discipleB should stir up the wrath and protest of the others was only a manifestation of human nature, though jt put the 10 upon, much the name plane as the two who were moved with, inordinate ambition. Not one of the 12 had as yet understood the deepest thing in the teaching of Jesus that humility and service are the ways to true greatness, and that ambition, when it is simply to be above someone else, contradicts the very essence of light and love.

Yet how true this record is to the history of mankind and to the life of the world at the precent time! How much men are moved with the passion for place and preferment regardless of the worth and the Quality of the service that lit them for high distinction! If we could see the world even for one generation moved, not with the passion to be first, but with the passion to be true, and holy, and loving, and kind, what a transformation would result in high places: what a new ideal of leadership we should have in state, and factory, and counting house; and what a new beauty and glory of life would descend from these high places to shed radiance on all of human existence! The world will never find its salvation, religiously, economically, or socially, until the way of ambition becomes the way of love. inspection by the audience at the close of each session.

Many of the new dishes are to be featured this week and I hope the housekeepers of Owensboro like them and add them to their regular repertoire of favorite foods." The recipes Mrs. Thurn will give out at the sesesions, which begin next Tuesday at the Bleich and continue through Friday, will be printed and distributed free to all present. But to make them perfectly clear, she will read and explain them from her kitchen on the stage. She will demonstrate many of them during the session and in the demonstrations she will show new cookery methods, discuss new nutrition theories on vit-amine content of foods, use unusual tetsed ingredients and give detailed instruction for cooking, finishing and serving the dish. The tools, equipment and utensils with which her selected delicious dishes are prepared will be explained at the same time.

Many are shown this year for the first time. These include labor-saving and time-saving tools, or, for some other fine quality they have been included in the kitchen which will be seen by the women of Owensboro Tuesday at 2 o'clock.
