TO THE CHURCHES OF INDIANA | The Church Federation of Indiana sends out a letter to the churches through its Evangelistic Committee, the Rev T. W Grafton, D. D.. chairman, calling attention to the endeavor to arouse the churches in a great plan of constructive, self propagating [revival to deepen the spiritual life of the church, and aiming at the conversion of a thousand people in each county, or onehundred thousand in .the state. If the peace treaty is signed now by Germany, it becomes more imperative to keep the home fires and the altar fires of the church burning brightly to welcome the soldier boys home. The Federation, therefore, feels that it Is all more important that a united effort be put on by counties in Indiana. We herein announce that Dr. Charles L. Goodell, Executive Secretary of the Commission of Evangelism in the Federal Council of Churches of the United States, has been secured for five regional conferences beginning in Indianapolis in September, and probably next Marion, Indiana, and then three other large cities. At this time the Federation is sending out a prayer card requesting prayer for revival in Indiana and seek ing to have individuals by this request to pray for their church, their county and their state. Ten thousand of these vest pocket prayer cards are being mailed this month of June. Pastors are hereby requested to preach on the subject of prayer as related to revival and call attention to this card in the pulpit or at the mid-week services. The following results will be sought for: First —Stressing the importance of prayer, with an endeavor to increase the mid-week prayer meting in each church by the use of a pledge. Second —The effort will be made to deepen the spiritual life by more regular attendance upon the public worship, and increase the study of the word of God in the Sunday school That is, a drive for church and Sunday school attendance in each tyThird—This is to be followed by the month’s campaign of Evangelistic meetings in which the following is planned: (a) Training and organizing personal workers and some form of special meetings in each church. (b) Reaching the Boy Scouts and the boys of the organized Y Boy’s Work in each county and bringing them into union with the church work. (c) An effort to utilize the music forces in a county during the month of the county campaign. Pastors are asked co form a county organization, the form of which can be obtained from the Federation office, 710 State Life Building, Indianapolis, Indiana, addressing the Executive Secretary.

DELIGHTFUL PLAY {Continued from Page One) love story, were very fine and unexcelled. Old King Colj, with his hearty and ■jolly laughs, found a counterpart in O. L. Vance. Hie fiddlers were there too, and they looked remarkably like George Schug, David Hensley qnd Dick Heller. A great hit was that made by Oscar Lankenau as Simple Simon, whose love for pie was equaled only by his love for Geraldine, his pet mule, who proved to be Hugh Hite. Os course the pie-man appeared in the scene, too, and Dr. J. Q. Neptune played this part to perfection. Linked closely with Simple ;Simon, was Marjorie Daw. Miss Eva lAcker as this lady made a great hit with the audience, and incidentally with Simple Simon and Geraldine, both of whom she finally drew to the matrimonial altar. Os course Mother Goose-land wouldn’t be complete without Mrs. Jack Spratt and Mr. Jack Spratt. Mrs. Spratt, who could eat no lean, and showed it, was amply represented by Fred Schurger, while the much-lesser half, who could jeat no fat and of course had none to show for it, was portrayed in away equally laugh-provoking by E. B. Adams. To cap the climax, Mrs. Spratt got the suffragist bee to buzzing in her bonnet, and with this added torture, Jackson S. looked and must have felt, that life was becoming unendurable. The King’s Messenger was a part voiced by Ishmael Macy, while. Miss Jirene Gregory as Mrs. Pumpkin Eater, made an ideal suffragette, supported by a bevy of suffragettes, in mannish attire. Dorothy ’ Dugan as the Queen of Hearts; Jesse 1 Cole as the King of Hearts, and Elmo Smith as the Knave of Hearts, completed an interesting trio that made ’ the story interesting. The group parts were all very prettily taken, and the costumes of these represented in a striking way the nature or character parts they repre- ' sonted. The flowers were flower-like iin apearance; the knights and ladies danced the stately minuet; the forty little girl snow-drops, looked and acted the part; and everything in the ’ group settings was as nearly perfect as it was possible to make it. he following represented the groups Poppies— Genevieve Bremerkamp, Agnes Kohne, Veronica Anker.

as well as for the group numbers, and it is seldom that a home-talent musical production is given anywhere of such high class merit as the one given here. Especial praise should I be given Miss Ruth C. Keller, of the ■ John C. Rogers Producing Company, of Findlay, 0., who directed the re- 1 hearsing and staging of the musical. I There was a comparatively short timel for preparation and drilling, and the I result has been wonderfully good. The play was given under the auspices of the Tri Kappas sorority, who' are to be congratulated upon securing so excellent an attraction. The proceeds will be used in sending some worthy girl to college. IT IS ALL GONE NOW. Samuel L. Kramer, Box 95, Sellersville, Pa., writes; “I had kidney trouble for two years and had a terrible backache. That is all gone now after using Foley Kidney Pills and I feel well again." When the kidneys aro overworked, weak of diseased, I the waste matter remains in the system and causes pains in side or back, rheumatism, lumbago, stiff joints, sore muscles, backache Foley Kidney Pills get results quickly and are tonic in their healing and soothing effect. Good for bladder trouble, too. Sold everywhere. adt J EYE DEFECT IN CHILDREN Statistics gathered from school examinations show a large percentage of children labor under serious trouble of the eye.
