ADMISSION TO
PRIESTHOOD
LONDON, June 16 (Correspondence
of Associated Press).—Excitement at
tended a debate in a public meeting
the other day in Church house, West
minster, the headquarters of the
Church of England, over the question
•whether women should be admitted to
the priesthood. The principal debat
ers were Miss Maude Royden, a leader
of the movement here for women
clergy, and the Rev. A. G. Magee, a
staunch opponent of the scheme.
Clergymen joined with laymen and
women in hissing, booing and cheer
ing, according to the side they took.
“To admit women to the prirest
hood,” the Rev. Mr. Magee declared,
“would be a revolution, not an evolu
tion. They can not have a revolution
of that character until the whole
church has set its seal upon it and
God has approved of it.”
'» Hissing and cries of “Shame!”
greeted his discussion of the moral re
lationships likey to rise between men
and women in the church if the latter
are admitted. “You can not get away
from the sex question,” he said. “We
are made as we are, and that fact re
mains.”
Amid applause from his friends he
said he believed the granting of the
priesthood to woman “would make
her false to her master and false to
her sex.”
“Women,” argued Miss Royden, “de
sire women as priests, and their ad
mission to the priesthood would make
it much easier for women to get help
from the church.”
After quoting the New Testament
to show that the commission of the
priest was given to men and women
alike in the “upper room” at Jerusa
lem. she continued:
“The head of the Church of England j
has not always been a man. Queen |
Elizabeth, Queen Anne and Queen Vic-1
toria were all supreme heads of the
church.”
“No! no!” shouted many voices.
“I am sorry if you don’t like it,”
Miss Royden told the protesting ele
ment, “but it is so.”
She went on to affirm that the fun
damental differences between men
and women were not a bar to women’s
entry into the priesthood. “Women,”
she concluded, “desire to conform
more nearly to the ideal laid down by
Christ. He laid down nothing and sug
gested nothing that divided men and
women in the vocation of priesthood.”
No vote was taken on the subject.

CAPE-TO-CAIRO
MAIL SERVICE
LONDON, June 18 (Correspondence
of Associated Press).—Despite enor
mous difficulties being met with in es
tablishing the long air route, it is ex
pected that the Cape-to-Cairo aerial
mail service will be in operation be
fore the year is out. The first flight,
it is said, probably will be made in
October or November.
Partial reports of the African sur
vey parties now in the field detail
some of the obstacles that have had to
be surmounted. Between Malakal and
Gondokoro, about four hundred miles,
the Nile so inundates the country that
no suitable landing place for an air
plane could be found. It is therefore
proposed to use a flying boat for that
stage of the journey.
A month after the signing of the
armistice with Turkey the first survey
party was ready to start. Two years
previously the route *from Solium to
Cairo had been used by Major Mac
Laren on his flight from England to
Egypt, and aerodromes had been built
at Solium, Mersa Matruh and at Am
ria, near Alexandria, while intermedi
ate landing grounds had been cleared
for emergency use. An aerodrome had
been constructed also at Khartum in
1915.
For the purpose of the survey Af
rica was divided into three sections.
One party was assigned to Egypt, the
Sudan and as far south as Victoria Ny
anza. The second covered the central
stretch from Victoria Nyanza through a
part of what was German East Africa
to Kituta, at the southern end of Lake
Tanganyika. A third party inspected
the line from Kituta to Capetown.
A route via Egypt and the Arabian
coast to India is being developed from
Atbara to Trinkitat, on the Red sea,
and thence via the Farsan and Kama
ran islands to Perim and Aden. It is
said that this probably will be more
used for military than civil purposes.
CALIFORNIA NOW HAS
OFFICIAL LION HUNTER
SANTA BARBARA, Cal., July 11 (by
mail).—“Official lion hunter of the
Santa Barbara national forest” will be
the title of “Jerky” Johnson, a well
known hunter and trapper of the Tejon
mountain district, near here, will bear
when he starts out in a few days to
rid the reserve of pumas and bob-cats,
which have been creating terror in the
hearts of ranchers around here.
For several months ranchers have
reported that their stock has been at
tacked by the beasts, and travelers in
the forest told of thrilling fights and
narrow escapes from attacks.
It was not, however, until one of the
animals paid a visit to the Canet ranch,
less than two miles from the center of
this city, that anyone took the various
and diversified tales seriously. But
now it’s different, and Forest Ranger
Jacinto Reyes and Game Warden
Frank Barnett will confer with
“Jef-ky” Johnson to prepare a cam
paign against the dangerous maraud
ers.

TOMORROW—VIOLA DANA IN “THE FLOWER OF DUSK” •
FAMOUS RACE HORSE
OF LUCKY BALDWIN IS
BURIED WITH HONORS;
LOS ANGELES, July 22 (by Asso-!,
dated Press).—Rey el Santa Anita, j
king of the turf, the, most famous :
racing horse in California history, and
■the pride of the late E. J. (“Lucky”)
Baldwin, died recently at Santa Anita
Rancho, near here, the former home
of “Lucky,” and now occupied by his
daughter, Mrs. Anita Baldwin.
Rey El, as he was familiarly known
from the Pacific to the Atlantic in the ,
days when horseflesh reigned supreme,
was a winner of the American Derby
and of countless races throughout the
country, and Mrs. Baldwin estimated
that Rey El won more than $250,000
in purses during his life.
He won the American Derby at
IWashington Park, Chicago, in the then
Sfast time of 2:36, winning a purse
|of $19,750. In 1905 Rey El won the
Broadway stakes in New York and
other honoros during the same year at
St. Louis and Little Rock.
In 1907 he was leased by Richard
jCroker, who took him to England,
where he attracted world-wide atten
tion, both as a race horse and a fam
ous sire. After adding to laurels al
ready won, he was brought back to
America, and finally to his birthplace
—Santa Anita Rancho.
Of recent years Rey El, though
growing old, held his own magnifi
cently in spirit. Only four years ago,
jwhen he was 24 years jdd, he won first
prize at the Panama-Pacific Interna- i
jtional exposition at San Francisco.
' Due honor was paid the noted ani
jmal when he was buried. With his
racing colors, records and trappings
wrapped about him, he was laid on a
knoll at Santa Anita Rancho, beside
!the body of Grimstead, another of the
I well-known thoroughbreds of “Lucky”
Baldwin.
Mr. and Airs. J. F. Simmons of Knik

Simmons, will have charge of the hos
telry.
