-Slipuhod and haphazard methods
In church affair are a reproach to the
rimrrh. and nerve-rarklne to eerv
ur-rlcnt man." declared Bishop Scad
cllna. In mtkln; his annual charse to
the clenry of the Orecon Episcopal dio
cese at ?t. Stephen- Pro-Cathedral last
nlKht. Thl itsteroent he made for tho
jattlcttlar benefit of warden, vestry
man and treasurer of tne churrh. He
eald eome Koleconal Church property
nas been sold fur taxes and has had
to be redeemed "all because wardens
and vestrymen failed to be careful
about the business of their parishes."
"In some places." continued the Bish
P. -bon-led sewer asseesments and In
stallment payments for street Improve

that It became necessary to pa v them

loose offering, so-called, to receive
no check or audit whatever. Some
times they are carried to the treas
urer by till", or thai, or the other per
son, mho mar happen to be on hand.
"Worse still, they are occasionally
left for some time in the alms-basin
In the vestry or choir room, with no
one to look after them. All this Is
loose-Jointed and discreditable. It Is
not a question of the loss of the sacred
funds, bat It Is a question of pro
lactins; the. church, the vestry, the
treasurer from attack where no de
fense could be forthcoming."
Vestry la lanerance.
There have been Instances where
the clergyman's salary was In arrears,
where insuranc premiums were over
due, taxes and furl bills unpaid, and
all t. while the vestry was In Inex
cusable ipnoranee. Fortunately these
Instances have been few and far be
tween, but they should never occur.
"As to fund for sreneral mission
work, treasurers should not use their
own procrastinated convent" nee In
paslnc on what does not belonc to
them. The last Issue of the Living
I'hurch reports that hundreds of dol

Serines are, still held back by parish

Iist nlarht was the opening session
of the Jtlh annual convention of the
i:iscopaI Church In the Plocese or
orea-on. The full vested choir and a
1 r.e representation of ministers wero
resent. Many members of local
churches were also present. The re-)-rt
on tho condition of missions In
tho diocese was clven by Kev. H. M.
Ksmsey. The Hlshop's chare fol
lowed. Iteitardlntr the vice commls
;on and social service, he said:
Vies- la City Scored.
-Three rears ten I appointed a so
riul service committee, and at each
convention since then that committee
has tflven us clear and forceful re
ports. Such Interest was awakened In
I ie community that the Mayor ap
pointed a vice commlsj-lon of 1. and
made our chairman the chairman or
Ms commission. The first report has
been nubltshed. The srand Jury re
cently handed In Its report, which has
been circulated In printed form. It

What Is to b done officially with

The bishop reported the Income

told of the expense of the City Engi

a good deul of public funds to operate

does all kinds, according to the Mayor,
but. nevertheless, he Intends to take
some action to reduce the expense.
City Auditor Barbur has figures on

there are now 2. Some of these ara
owned by tha Fire Department. These
cost the city virtually nothing for re

It Is now proposed to establish a

mobiles shall be kept there when not
In use. It will tha aim to keep tab
on all of these machines to sea that
they are used only for public business.

J. II. Bryan. Saloonkeeper.
Hotel Woman Charged.
A verdict of guilty was returned In
Circuit Court yesterJay afternoon
against J. H. Bryan, a North End sa
loonkeeper, whose trial on an Indict
ment charging that he induced Molvle
Johnson. aed 17, to become an Immoral
woman had been In progress In Ju.!ge
Uantenbeln's department since Monday.
The Jury recommenced enienc.
Judge Gsntenbeln announced that he
will hue the defendant brought before
lilm for sentence Friday.
The stste white slave law, passed by
the lalslsture at-the 111 session, un
der which the prosecution was waged.
provides for Incarceration In tne pen
itentiary from 1 to 5 years or a fine
of from 1100 to 110.000, or both.
Oefcailaat'a Family 1st Court.
It Is believed that the ract that the
defendant has a wife and two minor
children, the younger a babe in arms
and the other about two years ot age,
may have influenced the Jury In rec
ommending l.ntcncy. Mrs. Bryan and
the two children were present In the
courtroom during the trial. Deputy
District Attorney Fitzgerald, who pios-
ecuted, assailed the defense for bring
ing them, declaring that they wero

There Is still another Indictment

the Johnson girl, to become Immoral,

Mr. Joy's proposed ordinance will be

and the fight that Is raging within and
without the Council Is as to whether
this clause should be incorporated In
the ordinance carrying the franchises
In order to make certain the power of
the city on this point.
When the franchises were beipg con

the Council, the majority members voted
to eliminate the fare-regulation clause.
A big fight took place over It In the

ELK "R00SEVELT7 IS DEAD
Rival of "Bill Tart" in National
Forest Dies of Injuries.
"rtoosevelt." the bull elk that was
brought to Oregon a few weeks ago
from -the Jackson Hole country, Wy
oming. Is dead.
This word was received yesterday
from the station in the Wallowa Na
tional forest by State Game Warden
Finley. The animal had been sick for
some time and it was thought this was
due to his horns. When the carcass
was examined by Warden Ross Leslie
it was found that three of the animal's
ribs had been broken. There were
other Indications of internal injuries.
Whether this was the result of a
blow from "Biff Taft,." tha other bull
elk. who has been striving for the
leadership of the elk herd, or not is not
known. This makes the third elk In
the herd to die. The other two were
cows. Another cow Is 111 and may not
survive. ,
The committee In charge of the fund
raised for the maintenance of the elk
herd met yesterday and audited the
bills that have been incurred and or
dered thera psid. The amount raised
was 532 22- The cost of transporting

BEST TREATMENT
FOR GROUP
if your child has ever had croup, you
need no description of the symptoms,
but to the Inexperienced, the peculiar
ringing cough Is often unnoticed until
the disease Is well under way. A child
mav go to bed at night in his usual
health, except perhaps a cold, only to
awaken a few hours later with a well
doveloped attack of croup and the re
mainder of the night Is spent by th
anxious parents In trying to relieve his
suffering, which Is usually more or loss
experimental. It is usually difficult to
secure the services of a physician in the
middle of the night, and he should
never be depended upon as the case
must bo treated at once. A bottle of
Chamberlain's Cough llemedy in the
bouse will save anxiety, expense and
perhaps the life of the child. Whn
this medicine Is given at tho first Indi
cation of croup, the attack may be
avoided, and eve-n after the croupy
rough has appeared. It will prevent the
attack. We have never known It to fall
to effect a euro In any case of croup,
and It Is. we believe In more general
nie In the United States for that dis
ease than anv other remedy.

Some of our competitors guarantee their cars for 90 days.
All right; that's better than nothing and good enough for
some people who don't care. It is even a quarter as good as
the Studebaker guarantee.
Then there Is another kind of guarantee. A guarantee
ashamed of itself, we call it, because all the assurance you
have is the car's "records." That is about as good as a
promise that wasn't made. The dealer knows his car better
than you do and if he won't sign a guarantee, be careful.
This is where the Studebaker guarantee comes to the
front. It is as good as gold a signed warranty bond of The
Studebaker Corporation. And it's good for a year because
evey Studebaker E-M-K "30" or Flanders "20" is worth the
price you pay for it. We know what our cars will do and we
put down our money on them.
Remember this: In guarantee and parts prices The
Studebaker Corporation takes better care of its owners than
any other automobile company in the world.
