Re. Samu3l Lewis, assistant pastor of the "mrch, was master of ceremonies and Revs. Scott F.

Hershey, A B. McConnick and P. Y. Pendleton, furnished the entertainment which consisted of one continuous found of laughter provoking stunts. Mr.

Lewis wiu fist on the program with an Indian ucng, entitled "From the Land of Sky Blue Waters," and closed it vitL another solo that was much appreciated. Mr. Pendleton followed with a sketch in negro dialect. This told in detail of the difficulties of an oM negro woman who had been shipped by express from Nashville, to Jackson, Fla. Mr.

Pendleton spent several years in Tennessee and became well acquainted with the negroes, their customs and dialect. His stunt pleased greatly and the audience was loud in laughter from the time he commenced until he closed. Later he gave an original negro sketch that also delighted his hear ers. Rev. McCormick sang several solos (Swing the evening and was liberally applauded.

Mr. Hershey said he had been asked to appear in Scotch dialect because he had Scotch blood In his veins and Mr. Pendleton fn the negro, because be possibly, because he had lived among the of the southland. Laughing, he said, was one of the best enjoyments of life and a cure for many ailments, he firmly believed. He said Americans excell all other rationalities in story telling and enjoy funny stories the most.

According to his idea, the Irish have wit r.nd the Scotch humor. Scotch humor always creates a funny situation and is rich; in retort. It is always without the intent to amuse. In other words, it is invariably spontaneous. It comes from the man who has no intention of being funny, and is said seriously.

Irish wit is for the purpose of pleasing and amusing, he said. As Mr. Hershey made these declarations, he told a side splitting story to illustrate his point. Mr. Pendleton came back at his brother clergyman by declaring that the Coon was the only genuine funny mm, that the negro was all th-j time locking for something to laugh at.

A number of negro stories, all of them exceedingly humerous, were then told by Mr. Pendleton. TRUE LOVE ISN'T BLOCKED BY TRIFLE (By united Press.) CHICAGO, Oct. 2 Billy Mills and Nora Farrell, each 19, wanted to wed. John W.
