THE CHARLOTTE NEWS, MAY 17, 1914. 12 : ; .iwT WEEK FOR PLAYERS DF SONG AID STORY STUDY YOUR CATALOGUE FOR NEW ANSWERS TO PUZZLE PICTURES ALL TITLES IN THIS BOOK. STUDY IN GAME IP YOU CAN'T FIND ANSWERS TO SOME PICMUMOE IM1TI0S THOSE THAT WORK TOGETHER FOR SOLUTIONS FIND IT EASIER-ALL LISTS MUST BE IN SATURDAY. This is "study week" for participants in The Game of Song and Story. Those who are earnestly trying for the prizes are busy going over their lists of titles. All "dead wood" is being cut out. Wise players are making a general revision of their answers. Those that seem only half-way appropriate are being replaced by real answers. It is a safe thing to say, that nearly everyone who will go over the Catalogue thoroughly again with the puzzle pictures before them, will find many new and suitable answers that escaped them before. If vou are not entirely satisfied with your choice, studv the Catalogue and you are sure to find answers that just "fit." But if you have a good title for a certain picture, don't let another player talk you out of it. Keep it for at least one of your answers to that picture. A plan that is being worked successf ully is swapping answers. For instance if you have had trouble with picture 61, hunt up some player that has found that pic ture easy and trade information that you have for hints on vour "sticker." This is one of the advantages of working with some one for answers. They seem to come much easier when mor than one person sets his mind on the titles. Remember all answers are in the Catalogue. It is just a matter of how many of the 70 you can find the nearer you are to the prize. - y. W. C. A. HOUSE LARGE- wflRMNG U ATTENDED Two hundred and fifty people were present at the house warming to which the Young Women's Christian Association invited the citizens of Charlotte on Friday night. The gymnasium exhibit was the first feature of the evening's program. The visitors' gallery, was crowded, and many watched the program from the windows of the porch. The' march ing and tactics were splendidly ex ecuted and were a credit to the in struction of Miss Louise Hanna, the physical director, who is graduate of a school which excels in German gym nastics, including its military tactics. The folk dances with their freedom of rhythmic movements, seemed a spontaneous expression of joy, and to lack the artificial features which mark the modern social dances. In the ! basketball game which closed the gym i nastic exhibit, the score resulted in a i tie. ! The members of the class during ! the past season have been Misses ikSue Alexander, Josephine Larhart, i Harding, Hatcher, Mary L. Irwin. Sal ! He K. Jameson, Annie Jonej. Ket : ner. Lucy Lipe.

Mr. Roy Marr was the ef ficient operator of the lantern and the description was given in a most in teresting way by Mrs. E. P. Tingley. Fruit punch and wafers were served in the small dining room and the vic trola in the residence parlors attract ed a good many of the visitors to that part of the house. Several of the sleeping rooms were open for inspec tion, and every thing done to give the public an opportunity to see the build ing which they have made possible for the young women of Charlotte. Among the board members present were Mesdames Witherspoon. Tingley, A'exander, Henry. Baird and Murrill, and other hostesses were Misses Pal- mer Hyman, DeVan. Cashion, Hun i sack, Minter and Roberts. Girls Gymnasium Class. The girls' gymnasium class has grown to such proportions that it is having to meet in two sections. By special request the tour weeks' course is being extended, and this week the first group will meet at 3:30.

CHURCH Presbyterian Hosts of South to Meet in Kansas City The "Education Assembly," Christion Education to be the Keynote of the Session I The Ad Interim Report Will be Heard. Jhina i I 'rr Mir mttit i mi r mri BY MAMIE BAYS. The fifty-fourth general assembly of the Southern Presbyterian church, which will convene at Kansas City, Mo., on May 21st. will be known as the "Education Assembly" and the importance of Christian education will be the keynote of the entire session. The prominence of the cause of edu cation in this a'ssembly will be in keeping with the action of the as sembly held a year ago which urged "all the synods and presbyteries to give earnest attention to the work of Christian education, using every en deavor to arouse our people to a deeper appreciation and a more liberal support of our educational institutions." and which recommended further that the next general asembly be an 'edu cation assembly' and the first Friday and Saturday evenings be given over to popular meetings in behalf of ouj schools, colleges and seminaries. Trie Ad Interim Report. No report to be submitted to this general asembly will be heard witn greater interest or will be of greater import than the report of the ad in terim committee on education which was appointed by the asembly of 1913 and was authorized to consider all matters relating to the discovery, def inition, co-ordination and allied ques tions of the schools and colleges con nected with the Southern Presbyterian church. This ad interim committee, with Rev. Henry N. Sweets. D. D., secretary of the executive committee of Christian education and ministerial relief, as chairman, and one represen tative from each of the fourteen synods of the asembly constituting the committee, held a conference dur ing the summer of 1913, in keeping with the recommendation of the as sembly, and prepared the report which which will be submitted to the assembly at Kansas City. This re port deals with schools, colleges, uni versities and theological seminaries with reference to church connection, standardizing, financial problems, loan and scholarship funds and the need of arousing the church on the sub ject of Christian education. The rec ommendations of this report are def inite and concise and if adopted by the asembly will revolutionize the edu cational policy of the Southern Pres byterian church. In addition to those who may be commissioners, many other educators will be in attendance upon the assembly this year on ac count of the important consideration of the cause of education to come be fore the body. The action of the as sembly in dealing with the report of the ad interim committee will affect all of the educational institutions, in cluding orphanages that are controlled by or in any way related to the South ern Presbyterian church. The desire of the ad interim committee is that the asembiy shall define just what re lation an institution oC learning must sustain to the Presbyterian church in order that the school may be called Presbyterian. The following figures are of special interest in this connection: There are in the Southern Presbyterian church and related to it six theological sem inaries, with thirty-six teachers, 321 students, forty-three buildings, prop ertv valued at $1,036,477 and endow ment of $1,566,963. The number of colleges is twenty-seven, with 376 teachers, 4,231 students, 160 buildings, property valued at $4,282,634 and en dowment of $2,022,316. The number of institutes, seminaries and acade mies is twenty, with 160 teachers, 1, 720 students, forty-seven buildings, property valued at $380,025 and en dowment of $140,000. The number of mountain mission schools is thirty one, with 107 teachers. 3,027 stu dents, seventy-eight buildings, prop erty valued at $296,320 and endow ment of $14,700. The number of orphans' homes and schools is eleven, with fifty-five teachers, 1,047 students, seventy-four buildings, property val ued at $740,000 and endowment of $16S,000. BODY 0 I SMITH FO IT Special to The News. Wilson, N. C, May 16. Evidently murdered an dthe body rifled of all belongings, then placed across the rails of the Norfolk Southern Railway, in order that the crime miight be cov ered, fate stepped in and the body c'i Frank Smith was discovered by the engineer of the Norfolk Southern east bound paassenger train In tim- to stop his engine. Last aiighr, after supper Frank Smith left th hone of his brother in Wendell aai did not return, although his absence Aas not noticed until this morning. The two brothers came to Wendell from Robe son county recently and are employed by a lumber concern at Wendell. This morning the body of Frank vas found lying on the railway track, a short dis tance from the town. The skull was crushed but no other marks are upon the body. Several hours later the brother identified the body. There is no clue to the murderer and ?ome. people think that Smith was killed by a freight train during the might, but the absence of any injury eixceut the crushed skull disputes tho theory. Railway officials have no rsport ' of any such accident. "Time is money," quoted the Wise Guy.
