History has a meaning and an Inspiration for all of us.

We want to carry through the years the history of the Congregational Church because we are proud of it. "The Congregational Church has always been a democratic church. It has contributed more to the cause of democracy than any other church in America. The Pilgrim fathers planted "the seeds of democracy and Congregationalism in the New World and they have gone hand in hand ever since." people "Just aren't buying," put over one of the largest craftwork from Syria, Greece IPcoy Metf Spoimg! Enjoy your The early history of Congregationalism and its rapid growth in England and America was told by the Rev. John C.

Walker, pastor of the Church of the Pilgrims. 109 Remsen last night. His Jtoplc was "Congregational Shrines." Dr. Walker illustrated his talk with stereoptlcon views of the early Congregational leaders and the historic localities where the foundations of. the sect were laid.

"We are no longer as sensitive as we once were to the claims of our church," said Dr. Walker, "We have become more tolerant of the beliefs of other sects. But sometimes we carry our broadmindedness a little call of an "invisible army," whose regulations and discipline must be maintained. Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament was celebrated by the Rev. Francis P.

Barilla. The services closed with the recitation of the brigade pledge, special musical program by the Sts. Simon and Jude choir supplemented the exercises. The brigades paraded through downtown Brooklyn following the services at the Cathedral. Bands and brigades taking part included: St.

The brigades mobilized at McLaughlin Park, Jay and Tillary Sts. Headed by the Re. Francis P.

By Jan. 1 $100,000 worth of and Egypt will have been dis-f posed of through sales In and around New York. A two weeks Christmas bazar, which opens today at the Near East headquarters, 151 5th Manhattan, will be the climax ot the sales. How It Came About All of which is Interesting enough, but the story behind this story is whafs of Importance here. For it was Mrs.

Florence Spencer Duryea, a former Brooklyn society women, who knew little about salesmanship but a great deal about the Near East, who "put it over." Mrs.Duryea has a crusading interest in the Near East with a good reason. She saw it in 1921 at Its worst, when wagons went through the streets of Armenian villages twice a day to gather bodies from the gutters; and when little children stood silently, hours on end, before the doors of the orphan asylums, in the hope that there might be room for them inside. She carried the memory of those scenes with her for years. VWhen I came back to America aftef that trip," said, "I used to wander through the lower East Side, listening to the Joyous shouts and laughter of the children, trying to forget those silent, waiting youngsters in Armenia. But I couldn't." A Different Sight A year and a half ago, Mrs.

Dur-; yea went back to the Near East. She could scarcely believe in the' transformation. In place of the sodden desolation of a decade before; she 'found the happily' studying in State agricultural schools under American directors during the Winter, and tilling the fields under new agricultural methods in the Summer. In Athens, she found a great decrease in tuberculosis, which has been 12 times as great as it is in this country, because Miss Alice Carr of the Near East Foundation put the children there on a supplementary feeding of milk and cod liver oil. 1 In Cairo, she found 2,500 refugee boys and girls happily settled in new homes, engaged in 25 different industrial occupations, and living cheerfully in "synthetic families." She visited the Boys Club, established by Reed M.

Dr.vldson, and marveled at the classes. Finds Stock Stagnated "And then," she said, "when I Court Procedure Changes Urged by Corrigan on Air Only Voter Can Take Bench antl Prosecutor's Office Out of Politics, He Says Proper enforcement of the law cannot be expected unless the criminal bench and the District Attorney's office are taken out of poll-tics, It was asserted by Chief Magistrate Joseph E. Corrigan in a nationwide radio broadcast last night. The remedy for evils and abuses, he continued, is in the hands of the voter. i "It Is up to the voter." he added, "to decide whether he prefers to be governed by the orderly processes of government or the pistol ot the racketeer." Magistrate Corrigan recommended amendment of the law to permit the District Attorney to comment on the failure of a defendant to take the stand, to permit a Judge to comment on the tacts and the credl-( tility of witnesses and strengthening' cf the law against perjury, which he characterized as "now practically a dead letter." "A man who has been a Judge for years must have learned something, no matter how stupid he was In the beginning," said Corrigan.

a ml m-: a News of Commercial and Industrial World came out of the Near East, I was told that the craftwork, through the sale of which much of this progress had been made possible, could no longer be sold, and that it would have to be discontinued. And I said it wasn't necessary. I said American women would be glad to continue buying It." Forthwith Mrs. Duryea began to work out a plan by which more of the craftwork could be sold. A $100,000 stock was on hand In ware houses here, under the direction of F.

H. Thomas. Fifty or more outlet offices throughout the country, functioning under the Near East Relief, had been closed when the organization became the Near East Foundation, leaving most of the stock to be sold through the New York office. That factor, in addition to the general low pulse of selling activities everywhere, made the sales task formidable. Mrs.

Duryea was equal to It. First she cut prices 50 percent. Then she suggested that sales be held in a dozen or more cities in and around New York State. Women from various groups were asked to take charge on different days, bringing their friends to buy. In the current sale Manhattan, clubwomen have taken charge one day.

Catholic women another. Episcopalian women a third, professional women a fourth, business women a fifth and so on, until almost every charitable or phllan-thropl' women's group In the city has been reached. In other cities a similar plan has been followed. Sales have been held in Harrisburg, Chestnut Hill and Philadelphia, in Bronxvllle, Scars-dale, Scarborough, Rye, Riverdale, Pelham Manor, Garden City, East Williston, Warren, Binghamton, Stamford, Montclair and Plainfleld; in the Harriet Judson Y. W.

C. here, and the pen and Brush and Vassar clubs in Manhattan. A total of 1.200 women managed the sales, under Mrs. Duryea's dl-rectlo. with committees numbering from 300 to 175, under them.

And the upshot of it all is that the rather awesome stock of goods on hand, six months ago, is now nearly gone. And Mrs. Duryea, who used to live at 369-A Jefferson sits in her offices at the Foundation headquarters and, thinking of her friends in the Near East, rejoices. "Why should not the Jury have the benefit of his knowledge and experience? "The community has paid for his education. Why not make use of it? As it is now a phonograph would do almost as well as a Judge when it comes to charging a Jury." Masher Slashes Man; Didn't Like His Face Felix Dulkopf, 27, of 363 Wilson Ave.

stood at Central and Gates Aves. early yesterday watching a young man making an unsuccessful attempt to flirt with a girl. The girl was waiting for a street car. Suddenly the young man turned and shouted at Dulkopf: "What the are you looking at?" Dulkopf was surprised but replied amiably: "Nothing." "Well, I don't like your face the young man said. Then he drew a knife, stabbed Dulkopf several times and ran.

The girl, who said she was Miss Hermine Tongess, 24. of 918 Sterling Place, called a policeman and Dulkopf was taken to Bushwlck Hospital. ROHAN STAPLETON Mr. and Mrs. John J.

Rohan of Manhattan announce the engagement of their daughter. Miss Margaret Lee Rohan, to James Francis Stapleton, son of Mr. and Mrs. Jeremiah Stapleton of Roslyn, L. I.

Miss Rohan was graduated from Notre Dame de Lourdes and the College of Mt. St. Vincent In Manhattan. Mr. Stapleton was graduated from Manhattan College.

Neglect of Auto Adds to Running Cost Losses resulting from neglect ot automobiles are costing owners stupendous sums each year.

No accurate estimate can be made of the unnecessary depreciation In automobile values, so numerous are the Instances of negligence contributing to the wasteful treatment of vehicles. Delay in having slight disorders remedied causes serious defects that are repaired only at heavy expense. Because owners fall to keep their automobiles in good condition, says L. A. Weed of the Oeneral Garage and Gas Station, 141ft Atlantic troubl: develops to a degree that does permanent damage.

Carelessness in watching the oil and tires alone makes the repair bill skyrocket far above reasonable proportions, when a smaller outlay a. little earlier might have forestalled the difficulty. The unnecessary expense Is augmented by the unnecessary inconvenience arising out of breakdowns. When a car has been depended upon for a long trip, and It falls to live up to expectations, the time wasted and plans upset are Inestimable losses. How could radios affect spark plugs?
