MAGIC TABLES SERVES
DINERS IN RESTAURANT
Magic tables in a Worcester, Mass
hotel now serve meals to patrons with-
out the assistance of waiters. When
a guest sits down to eat, he notes
his choice on a menu and drops it
through a slot to the kitchen below.
Presently a dumbwaiter rises through
the center of the table bearing the
dishes he has chosen, and the check
The mechanical waiter need not be
tipped, says Popular Science Monthly
According to the inventor of the
novel system, food may thus be serv-
ed at cafeteria prices, while the pat
rons are not obliged to carry trays
nor to sit at an uncomfortable lunch
counter. Dining in privacy, they en-
joy the saving in cost that the me-
chanical service allows. This is the
first actual installation of the sys-
tem which was devised about three
years ago.
Twenty members met at the church
annex Tuesday morning for the week
of prayer program for home missions.
Mrs. J. O. Mace, mission chairman,
was in charge of the .program, the
subject of which was the healing of
the land.
To the Minnie Alexander Circle
was assigned “Healing among the
French in Louisiana.” We set our
feet on a trail of romance when we
touch Louisiana soil, for here, have
four flags ruled over one of the most
colorful eras of discovery explora-
tion and settlement within United
States history. New Orleans is *the
center where Southern Baptists have
worked for nearly 85 years. There
are 16 churches in the city, only 5
of which are self supporting. It is
through the sacrificial service of the
faculty and students of the Baptist
Bible Institute that all of them are
able to have pastors, as the receipts
of the Home Mission board are in-
adequate to aid them and the need
for the gospel is so great. One may
drive miles without seeing a single
protestant church and whichever way
one drives, there is a/ mission field.
Space forbids that we mention the
work of but one of these, that among
the Acadians, the French colony im-
mortalized by Longfellows Evange-
line. There French people, like all
other foreigners, are best evangelized
by their own folk, so in 1917, the
home mission board, in cooperation
with the Louisiana State convention,
founded a school for training French
speaking workers for them. The
school, Acadia Academy, has a corps
of six teachers and eighty-six pupils,
thirty-three of which are ministerial
students, nine are missionary volun-
teers, and most of the others prepar-
ing for some form of Christian ser-
vice.
The Lockett Circle had chaise of
| the program, “Healing among the Ital-
” There are 450,000 Italians in
the south. Because of their national
unity, the close watch kept on them
by their native country, their pride of
race and tenacity of custom and tra-
dition and their national religion that
seeks to bar them from the public
school and mingling with people of
other nationality, render them the
most difficult of all people to reach
with the gospel. The field is wide,
but for lack of funds, the workers are
few, four having recently been with-
drawn, leaving Dr. and Mrs. Plain-
deld and Miss Fannie Taylor for the
Italian speaking people and one man
and two women for those speaking
Spanish. Two of the churches are
self supporting and send one-third of
their offerings to the cooperative pro-
gram, thus fostering world-wide mis-
ions. There were 28 baptisms in
the missions last year. Mrs. Avant
led the devotional, “Healing by living
waters.” Mrs. Ed Allard gave an in-
teresting chalk talk after which Mrs.
W. R. Williamson sang a special num-
ber “I shall not be moved.” The Lock-
ett Circle was happy to have Mrs. W.
J. Fox appear on their program. She
spoke on “What we owe to the Ital-
ians,” and showed us her interesting
Italian collection, gathered while tour-
ing that country.
TIP OF GIRL’S NOSE
LOST IN BUS ACCIDENT
HELD WORTH $15,000
OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., March 8.
—The tip of at least one college co-
ed’s nose is worth $15,000. That was

homa Supreme Court Tuesday.
The ruling was in the appeal of
the Oklahoma Railway Company
against the lower court decision for
Miss Evelyn Mount, Oklahoma City.
She lost the tip of her nose in a bus
accident. She was a student at Okla-
homa City University at the time.

RUTH McCORMICK TO MARRY
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Mar.
8.—Mrs. Ruth Hanna McCormick, for-
mer Congresswoman from Illinois and
widow of the late Senator Medill Mc-
Cormick, announced Tuesday she and
Albert G. Simms, Albuquerque, N. M.,
will be married at noon Wednesday
in her home here.
The Rev. Paul G. Roberts, rector of
the Grace Episcopal Church, will per-
form the ceremony.
They will leave immediately for
Albuquerque where they expect to
make their home. Mrs. McCormick
has been spending the winter here
to be near her two youngest children,
Ruth and Medill, who are attending
private schools near Colorado Springs.
Judge John Simms, Albuquerque,
brother of the bridegroom-elect will
be the best man. Mr. Simms is a
former Congressman from New Mex-
ico.
CANCELLATION OF WAR
DEBTS HELD UNLIKELY
LONDON, March 8.—Silas Strawn,
president of the United States Cham-
ber of Commerce, told American and
British business men today at a lun-
cheon of the American Chamber of
Commerce that the United States
never is likely to consent to cancella-
tion of intergovernmental debts.
Americans, he said, contend that
war debts and reparations must be
considered separately but if Europe
reaches an agreement regarding rep-
arations, then the United States will
be ready to consider readjustments of
intergovernmental debts.
By informal resolution the meeting
expressed sympathy for Col. Charles
A. Lindbergh in the kidnaping of his
son.

A bountiful lunch was served at
he noon hour, which the ladies were
glad to have the pastor, Rev. A. F.
Avant share with them. In the after-
noon, the Bessie Smith Circle pre
sented the program “Healing of the
Land among the Jews.” For many
years, Southern Baptists talked about
mission work among the Jews, and
lid nothing about it, no one seemed
to know where to begin. But there
came a young Jew, Jacob Gartenhans,
to the Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary, who seemed sent by Pro-
vidence to begin the work. Ten years
have proved that he was indeed, God’s
witness to the Jewish race in the
south, and he is yet the only Baptist
missionary to this race. The task was

too great for one man, so he set about | Mr- and Mrs. Darsie Garner of
to enlist every pastor as a mission-
ary to the Jews, and to turn every
Baptist church into a mission sta-
tion, which is only their rightful
task. So faithfully has he labored,
that there are now 20,000 Jews in the
U. Swi,who have openly accepted Christ
as their messiah and are serving Him
in the various churches with which
they are affiliated.
The Willard Taylor Circle present-
ed the program “Healing of the land
among the Indians.” Throughout the
years, revival blessings have been on
our Indian work. There are many
conversions each year. There are
good Sunday schools, W. M. S’s, Sun
Beam bands, young people’s auxiliar-
ies and B. Y. P. U.s. The young In-
dians are being trained in every way
to fit themselves for Christian citizen-
ship. The Chilocco’government school
has 900 pupils, 500 of whom are mem-
bers of the Baptist Church.
The young people will present the
fifth of the programs at the Wed-
nesday night church service.—Re-

HOOVER FAVORS BUDGET SLASH
WASHINGTON, March 9.—Hold-
ing new slashes in federal expendi-
tures a necessity if the budget is to
be balanced, President Hoover Tues-
day pledged the aid of his adminis-
tration in this work to three Demo-
cratic controlled house committees.
The president accepted from Capi-
tol Hill a statement that $125,000,-
000 more must be sliced from a bud-
get already reduced by approximate-
ly $477,000,000. Addressing newspa-
permen gathered at the White House
he reported members of his cabinet
now were preparing “drastic recom-
mendations” to this end.
“The whole of the administrative
officials,” he said, “are co-operating
with the special economy committee
appointed by the house of representa-
tives in the drive to bring about fur-
ther drastic economies in federal ex-
penditure.”
Balanced Budget Wanted.
The president referred to a special
money-saving committee appointed by
Speaker Garner just before Mr. Hoo-
ver submitted a message to congress
recommending reorganization of t h e
government. The committee is to re-
port upon this and other subjects by
April 15. Cooperation was pledged
also to the house ways and means
and1 appropriations committees.
Mr. Hoover Tuesday reiterated his
belief that “nothing is more import-
ant” than balancing the budget with
the least possible increase in taxes,
and added a hope that the govern-
ment would be in a position after July
1 to pay its way without further se-
curity issues.
“That is vital to the still further
promotion of employment and agri-
culture,” he asserted. “It gives posi-
tive assurance to business and indus-
try that the government will keep out
of the money market and allow in-
dustry and agriculture to borrow the
money required for the conduct of
business.”
Reduction Need Seen.
The reductions must be accomplish-
ed, he said, either by reorganization
and consolidation of government de-
partments or by changes in the legal
requirements of various federal ser-
vices.
As an illustration of his contention
that little more could be saved by ad-
ministrative action, President Hoo-
ver recalled that the budget bureau
had submitted estimates roughly
$365,000,000 below those of last year.
Further reductions of $112,000,000
have been made by the house appro-
priations committee, he asserted, and
of this sum between $60,000,000 and
$70,000,000 represents deferments to
be made up in future deficiency bills.
BONUS PAY BILL
SOON TO BE HEARD
WASHINGTON, March 8.—Acting
Chairman Crisp of the House Ways
and Means Committee announced to-
day that hearings on the Patman bill
to pay the soldiers’ bonus in full
would begin as soon as the new rev-
enue bill is disposed of in the House.
No date was set. The bill, by Rep-
resentative Patman (Democrat, Tex-
as), proposes Congress authorize an
issue of $2,200,000,000 of currency to
pay off the bonus certificates that ma-
ture in 1945.
The Georgia Democrat said:
“I am going to vote against it.”.
