ft. C. Merry, editor of The Park
Street Messenger, the organ of the
Park Street Methodist church, Kri- j
day gave out an explanation of the
editorial comments contained In The
Messenger concerning the removal of
Dr, S. R. ISelk from the pastorate of
the church, which were denounced
laler at a meeting of the stewards.
• The views expressed in the edito
rial are my own personal views," Mr.
.Merry explained, "and the board of
stewards Is In nowise responsible for
them. I was misinformed about th.-
part played by Dr. \V. P, I.ovejov,
presiding elder, in the removal 01
Dr. Belk. It seems he was not re
sponsible. J wish to exonorate Dr.
Helk from ariy suspicion of complaint
al his lot.”
Jt was resolved at the meeting of
the board of stewards Thursday night
tnal certain quotations from The
Messenger as to lack of loyalty on
the part of Dr. Ixtvejov "do a great
injustice to a Christian gentleman,
and are erroneous.”

show are looking forward with great
expectation to the performance to
be given Friday night at the Grand
Theater by the Tech Dramatic Club.
It will be a great success. 1’repa
int;! »n< for the farce have been the
most elaborate ever attempted by the
club and the boys have responded
more readily to the coaching of Miss
Carolyn < ’«>1>D than ever before.
Particular attention has been paid
to tile female impersonators in the
• ast. Their gowns were all made by
friends of tin* Tech students, and,
according to report, "lit them like the
paper on the wall."
After tin* performance, most of the
crowd will attend a dance at Se-
gadlo’s Hall. Tin* occasion will af
ford an opportunity for good-byes to
be said on the eve of the Christmas
holidays.
Great Chance to Help.
Through the generosity of the Tech
Dramatic Club, one-quarter of the
box receipts of the play will go to-
