clares It Is Higher

Captain Ernest A. Yarrow was
the speaker at the morning sci-vices
in the Rowayton Methodist church
yesterday. Captain Yarrow. who re—
cently returned from the Near East,
said that one at the pleasant sur—
prises which awaited him upon his
return to Rowayton was to renew
his triendsnip with Rev. Charles
Gray, pastor of the church, who,
twenty years ago. was graduated
with him trom a. seminary in Hart.
ford. During his talk Captain Yar-
row sought to bring out the fact
that one's nationality or religion
was not of paramount importance
but that one's character was the
thing that counted. _ He said that as
he grew older it. became more and
more evident to him how insignifi-
clsnt-dogma was so compared to
character. Captain Yarrow illus-
trated his talk by telling of three
friends he had made in the Near
East. One was a Krud- woman, sn-
other a Russian sutocrst and the
third an Armenian officer. Captain
Yarrow will conduct the morning
worship at the Rowsyton Methodist
church next Sunday. during the ab-
sencs 0: Rev. Gray. Captain Yar-
row is an ordained minister and be-

A I'barn on the Sherar estate or
Xeclcr avenue was burned to the
ground shortly after six o'cloek this
morning. The discovery of the tire
caused considerable excitement in
the neighborhood for at first it was
thought that the caretaker of the
estate was in the building. How-
ever. hs appeared on the scene
about seven o’clock. No alarm was
sent. into the fire department as the
flames had gained such a headway
when the fire was discovered that
it would have been impossible to
save the building in which hay was
stored. It is believed that the tire
was caused by spontaneous combus-
tlon.
