mission as voting members, of
women other than those of tile Pro
testant evangelical faiths. The
amendment offered would have
barred Jews. Unitarians and those
of other faiths from voting member
ship, but only 144 delegates cham
pioned the measure while 1,200 voted
against it. The optional membership
amendment was adopted on Saturday

ganization were heard from all parts

dent fo rtlie last two years, was

The Practice of the Christian
Church to celebrate certain feasts
until the eightli or octave day fol
lows the example of the Jewish
Church. The number eight is sup
posed to represent perfection, for
the seven days of the week are
taken as figures of the ages of the
world and the eighth, the eternal
rest which is to follow them.

AUGUSTA, GA.
A woman claiming to be an ex-nun
is lecturing in North Carolina. She
appeared recently at Durham where
Father O'Brien made public a state
ment declaring she never was a nun.
The Fiery Cross a Klan paper in
Indianapolis which h *' advertised
her as an ex-nun, ilk I s December
17, 1922 issue, carried the follow
ing:
“She (Helen Jackson) makes a liv
ing out of the game and so does her
husband. Her mission is purely mer
cenary. Mrs. Jackson was never a
nun. She poses in what slip says Is
a nun’s garb, but it is not. Investi
gation always proves that these
speakers do not have a pure motive
or are in their questionable work in
spite of themselves. Wherever she
has been imported she spreads her
poison and does postive harm.”
