Increasing popularity of gold coins

get a supply large enough to meet
the public demand. but the eight in-
stitutions in this city are awaiting
the rush of gift orders from their

'Bishop Berry ln
Fervid Appeal
To Churchmen

Bishop Joseph llcrry. presiding
bishop of‘ the Methodist Episcopa.
church in America may be an old
man but the snap and pep he car-
ries behind his white beard would
put many a. yOungster to shame and
every one of the 150 or more local
Methodist leaders who heard him at
the First Methodist church lust eve-
ning felt prouder of being a. Christ-
inn. and proudcr of being a Metho-
dlst after hearing. the Venerablo
champion of the modern church
sound his battle cry to a militant
churehmanship. A fiery demand that
the church come first in the consid-
oration of Christian people and that
nothing else. however good. should
crowd the church into second place.
rung forth in convincing tones. '

"This is a crucial time for the
Christian church." He said. because
never before in its history has the
church had to compete with so
many things that are good, in
themselves. and which are diverting
interest ‘from the church to them-
selves. Tlie day has long since
passed since the church was the so-
cial and educational center of the
community as well as the spiritual
center. “'0 are no longer living in
an age when it may be said that
"The church in the. only place to go."
Today the church must compete
with lodges. leagues. movies. welfare

, be and a, hundred
other things calling upon good peo-
ple for their time. energy and
money. Let me say it is a stiff com-
petition. I do not say these things
are bad. but I do say they cannot
‘tako the place of the church. and
they must not be allowed to take
from the church what belongs to
the church."

The bishop aroused great applause
when he declared passionately “The
women of this country prayed pro-
hibition through on their knees to
years ago and you may just as well
talk about legalizing human slavery
as legalizing the rum business.
Prohibition is here to stay."

Aid Athletic

In his . recommendation to the
board of education. when it met at
the Norwalk High school last night.
Superintendent of Schools John
Lund requested an additional $500
in salaries as bonuses to six teachers
who assisted Perry W. Bean, newly-
appointed athletic director. in his
elementary school classes. He also
subnflttcd the names of teachers to
fill two vacancies. For one vacancy.
that oerrs. Ada L. Shelton. former
supervisor of art. a. shekeup of the
entire course system was necessary.
The board endorsed his recom-
mendation without question beyond
some slight discussion as to whether
or not the extra payment to Mr.
Perry's assistants were to be consid-
ered salary or bonus. It was also
voted to retain in service. Shatler B.
Walkiey. head teacher of the Broad
River school. who has passed his
seventieth year and requested that
his retirement be deferred. This lat-
ter' motion will be forwarded to the
state retirement board.

Poor Latin Scholars .

Mr. Lund remarked in reporting
on statistics recently gathered that
the number of students passing the
Latin courses in the high school. 68
per cent was the lowest. He stated
that times on tardiness show that
students lalving near the schools are
al apt'to 0 late as those living far
away and reported also that a sur-
vey of teachers' marking is being
made to check their severity. Teach-
ers not giving a sunlcientiy high
average . of passing students are
prone to "pan the buck" by claim-
ing that he students they flunk
were notp riy prepared in pre-
liminary courses. he explained.

The report of superlntendvit of
schools follows: . I

"'I have no recommendations to
make to the board this evening
aside tram those which come

through the committee on wheels.
with reference to appointments and
other matters. I wish to call the at~
tention of the board at this time to
several reports and items of inter-
est.

"First Mr. Green's report relating
to promotion compiled from the
June promotion report made out by
the teachers. llls report shows a
comparison of promotion records
between the situation in June 1926
and June 1921. His report is ap-
pended.

"I am also glad to present at this
time two reports from Principal
Jakob of the senior high scho i.
One relating to promotions in t e
senior high school and the other.
giving a. compilation of the stand-
ing of pupa: by subjects. for the
first six w k period in the senior
high school. I believe both of these
reports contain considerable material
of interest to the board.

“The Board will also be interested
to know that We are checking up
very carefully the standing of first
year pupils with relation to their
standing in the Junior high schools.
The principals of the junior high
schools. together with Mr. Jakob and
myself. now meet regularly on the
second Tuesday of every month for a
discussion of all problems of com-
mon interest. In this way we man-'

Big Crowd On Hand

'1'he'c‘ouncil chambers were even
drowde'd. ‘many of those present
having to stand outside of the doors.
A delegation of friends of the mayor
started the cheering and lidndclap-
plug as the mayor proceeded to rle<
nounce the council. but another sec-
tion of the gathering stood by the
counclimcn and soon the rafters of
the building rang with the. hand-
ciapping and cheering as both sides
scored points. The meeting was one
of the most exciting and enthusiastic
in the history of the city. ’

The opening gun was fired by
Councilman John Mills just about
the time that it appeared as if the
meeting might close without the
matter being brought up.

Mills [mods Attack

The councilman from the fourth
district addressing the mayor said:
"We have a large audience present
to see the fireworks. 1 don't know
whether you or the council are sup-
posed to start them. You received
a communication from the members
of this council and you have the
right to answer it or not just as you
desire. When we came into the of-
fice several of the city departments
needed putting in order and we have
accomplished this. Your order to
bring in the state poii‘ce to conduct
the liquor raids gives us the impres-
sion that the police department is
not functioning as it should. We
would like to know what is wrong."

“I certainly shall not reply to this
letter." answered the mayor. “the
council has the right to make the
laws and I to enforce them. and I
don't have to answer to the coun-
cil. The charter gives me this right.
whether I call in the state police or
not. It is not the first time that
they were in here and they will be
called in again.
