'obey' and 'with all my worldly good I thee endow.' . We obtained revision and enrichment of the book of com mon prayer, the intention of this ac tion being to remove obsolete ex- prssions that are not commonly un derstood by the common man. It was ahvays meant, just as the marriage ceremony says. that one should love, honor and obey according to God's holy ordinance.' That does not at all mean that the wife must submit to all the whims of a husband, in the little things of life. I believe in per feet equality of the man and wife in property, personal opinion and the like. "The convention reaffirmed its stand on the divorce evil, one man for one woman until death do them part. This may work a hardship on innocent persons sometimes, but we must stand for the ideals of the home." said the bishop. The Rev. John Albert Williams. rector of the Church of St. Philip the Deacon, was nominated by Bish op Shayler to be elected bishop of Haiti. "The Rev Mr. Williams had many friends in the convention, and he is a capable man, but the vote finally went to a bishop of the white race, since the church in Haiti has for years been in charge of a white bishop," explained ' Bishop Shayler. Bishop Shayler introduced into the house of deputies a prayer for ad justment of the railway men's strike. GET OUT YOUR HORSE SHOES . BRIDAL COUPLE HERE Yesterday Mr. and Mrs. G.

Mr. Hall was for merly in the army of occupation in Germany. Numerous inquiries have been re ceived in the last few weeks from nearby towns asking as ty the ins pects for a horseshoe tournament or matches with a team from this nty, and as this game seems to be one of the popular sports of the day. brings up the question, Why not have a horse shoe pitchers' team? With the growing revival of this old sport there certainly should be some steps taken to try out the old veterans of the game as well as the younger residents of the city that have had experience with the sport. It. seems to be fascinating where it has been in vogue and with our ten nis and pinochle tournaments there seems no reason why the sport of ye old time horseshoe pitching should not be revived. Such' veterans as Les lie Niel. F. J. Warren, c. O.
