Epworth Church Plans
Splendid New Building
The congregation of the Epworth
Methodist Episcopal Church is plan
ning the early erection of a new
building on the site of the present
■ structure at Twenty-flrst and Derry
| streets, at a cost of approximately
] $45,000. A subscription campaign
| will be instituted within the next
j month and a gift of $20,000 has been
I promised toward the building fund
I by the Home Mission Board of the
; Methodist Episcopal Church.
| Need for additional room has been
i felt by the congregation for several
! years and it had been planned to
j erect a $15,000 building during the
I fall and winter of 1917-18, but vari-
I ous restrictions operated to prevent
i the execution of the plan at that
time. "Building Fund Subscription
Day" will be observed by the congre
gation on July 27, when it is hoped
to secure pedges of $2 5,000, payable
one year from date, as the congrega
tion's share in the building fund.
' It is "planrred that the new struc
ture shall have double the seating
capacity of the present building,
which seats 500 people. It was built
more than thirty years ago. Fur
ther building plans are not well de
fined at this time.

Mr. Soutter's team. Following the
ball game the bathing pool was the
center of attraction for many.
Supper was served shortly after 6
o'clock, after which there was

STATE BAR HEARS
ANSELLjS CHARGE
Ex-Acting Judge Advocate Re
peats Attack on Courts-Mar
tial System of the Army
JESSE E. B. CUNNINGhf AM
Bedford Springs, Pa., June 27.—The
address of Lieutenant Colonel Samuel
T. Anseli, formerly acting judge advo
cate of the Army, on the subject,
"Military Justice," delivered at the
forenoon session of the Pennsylvania
Bar Association, was pronounced by
Attorney General Sehaffer, president
of the association, one of the best
presented during the twenty-five
years' history of the organiza
tion. In recognition of the excel
lence of the address Colonel Ansell
was made an honorary member.
Among the charges made against
the military code by Colonel Ansell
are that it is reactionary: that it
disregards evidence and that it at
tempts to establish discipline through
the medium of fear. He declared the
military mind, personified in the
courts-martial, is intolerant of all
protective principles and of all rules
governing a trial, and particularly so
of the rules of evidence.
According to the colonel, the pro
fessional officers of our Army, with
one accord, believe with Napier, the
former British authority, that the
business of courts-martial is not to
discuss law, but to get at the truth
by all means in its power."
Oft'leerM Are Chosen
The forenoon session was complet
ed by the annual election of officers.
E. J. Fox, of the Northampton bar,
and former justice af the Supreme
Court, was elected president; Jesse
E. B. Cunningham, Dauphin; John A.
Nauman, Lancaster; Paul H. Gaither,
Westmoreland; John S. Rilling, Erie,
vice-presidents; Harold B. Beitler,
Philadelphia, secretary; Samuel E.

To Make Hairs Vanish
From Face, Neck or Arms
Keep a little powdered delatone
handy and when hairy growths ap
pear make a paste with some of the
powder and a little water, then
spread over hairy surface. After 2
or 3 minutes rub off, wash the skin
and it will be entirely free from
hair or blemish. This simple treat
ment is unfailing, but care should
be exercised to be sure and get
genuine delatone, otherwise you
may be disappointed.
