The work is progressing rapidly, however, and all side walls are up. Work on the roof will start soon. Richard Sedgwick, who is in charge of the construction work, says that the building will be ready for interior work Saturday night, fie believes the rpof will have been completed by that time. The seat ends arrived today from Troy, O. there will be others from other cities where revivals have been conducted along similar lines to the Richmond union meetings. The seat ends are supports on which wooden seats with backs are made. Want Interior Decorated. In the matter of interior decoration to be placed in the tabernacle, the committee has done nothing. Mr. Sedgwick believes, however, that a plan like that of the Muncie. union re vival committee will be used. The committee asked for some lodge to volunteer to decorate the building. The Elks responded and trimmed the interior with flags and bunting. Shop meetings at the Starr Piano plant were resumed at noon today by the religious extension department of the Y. M. C. A., Ur. S. R. Lyons mak ing a ten-minute talk on the needs of mankind to know God. J. H. McAffee, who was for several years identified with Y. M. C. A work in the east, assisted in the meeting by leading the singing. At the close of the meetings, those present, number ing twn hundred, unanimously voted to continue the meetings the remain der of the winter. Hold Meetings Weekly. Under present arrangements the re ligious extension meetings of the Y. M. C. A. will -be held weekly in the Starr Poano and the American Seed-ing-Machine plants. Dr. A. L. Bram kamp will talk at noon next Thursday on the need of a tuberculosis hospital in Wayne county. In part, Dr. Lyons said: "One of the principal questions of man's be ing is his relationship 10 God. Men in general are in more or less close relationship to Him. Only a very few will acknowledge that they have no thought for a higher power." "You know what kind of a mechanic a watchmaker is by the watch he makes. But you can not tell from his product what manner ot man ne is. So the works of God are shown in nature, though nature will tell but little of Him." The party conducting the meeting, consisting of Dr. Bramkamp, Secre tary Learner, J.. H. McAfee and Dr. Lyons, was given a cordial reception. On Saturday evening, December 20, the Y. M. C. A. building will be thrown open to the employes of the Starr Pi ano company. r J r f lA' i s' 1 ; A r i ' ' 1 . w ' '.SI if ' & - JF - I If ' J? i If hf'jA i - - 1?

King, county health officer, by the county board of education was resented by member: of the Wayne County Medical Society at its month ly meeting yesterday afternoon In fact, so strongly did they oppose the charges against the health official that they framed their resentment in the form of resolutions The faithful performance of duties in enforcing the state laws in the face of opposition offered by certain pub lic oilicials is assigned for the strong opposition against Dr. King. It is said that he has become the mark for stinging criticism by being too strong in his instructions for remodel ing buildings according to the state laws pertaining to sanitation. Endorse Dr. King. This is what the doctors think of the situation: "Wayne County Medical Society, December 3, 1913. "In view of the criticism that has recently been made of the actions of Dr. J. E. King as health commissioner of Wayne county, the members of the Wayne County Medical Society desire to express publicly their opin ion of this criticism, and of Dr. King's work. It is our conviction that the antagonism against Dr. King arises in small part from misunderstanding, but for the most part, from his strict and faithful effort to secure the en forcement of the state health laws. "We know Dr. King to be a man of integrity and ability, and commend his administration of the health commis sionership as fair and just, and by far the most efficient Wayne county has ever had." Elect Officers. Election of officers for the ensuing year also was a part of the program nt the meeting The officers chosen were Dr. C. E. McKee, Dublin, presi dent; Dr. F. W. Krueger, Richmond, vice president; Dr. A. J. Whallon, Richmond, secretary. Dr. A. B. Hunt, Cambridge City, treasurer; Dr. J. N. Study, Richmond, censor. Dr. J. E. King was selected to represent the society in the state meeting. Dr. L. F. Ross was chosen alternate. Reports of the chairmen of the va rious committees showed the organ ization to be in a flourishing condi tion. A substantial Increase in mem Vicrshin was renorted.

"'Sail imitation," he continued. "They are trying to look like Venus, who didn't have to patch, because she had a real mole ou her face." With the resurrection of the art, Richmond's younger set has added a book of black court plaster to the "make-up" kit of powder, paint and whatnot, which is an essential part of the equipment of every dressing ta ble.
