SOODWILL INDUSTRES ¢ GIVES mi

Church h Group's, Fall Activities Are Announced

95 New Job$'Greated, Wages of $4000 Paid in

Directors Say.

BY SAM TYNDALL

Dedicated to rebuilding .the lives and fortunes of the néédy through brotherly co-operation, thé Fletcher Place M. E. Church Goodwill Industries opened the fall program of its seventh year of operation today. Otganized in 1929 in an effort to convert material waste into human’ well-being, Gootiwill Ihdustries now gives steady employment to about 40 unfertunates. It also partially supports a score of social welfare activities including clinics, kindergarten, library, high school social groups and church schools. ~ Every year the shop salvages thousands of cast-off materials and pays fair wages to hundreds of needy persons. | Thé Rev. Howard G. Lytle, graduate of De Pauw and Boston Universities, is diréctor of the industries at 625 Fletcher-av. He said more than $4000 has been paid in wages, 95 new jobs havé been created since Jan. 1, and that 12,600 articles have been sold in the store,

Contributions Sold

Bags aré distributed to homes, hospitals and woman's clubs, to be filled with cast-off clothing and olher articles. The contents are repaired and placed in the shop for sale. Several hundred bags each month are collected in this way. Mr. Lytle said the saturation point for the Indianapolis good - will unit is estimated at $65,000 annually in sales and $45,000 in wages. There are 98. such goodwill enterprises throughout the country, paying over $2,000,000 annually in wages. Mr. Lytle carries. on his work here with the belief that “you can not bring about personal or spiritual rehabilitation before you give a man a self-respecting job.”

Sees Self-Respect Restored

“Any method of economic help or assistance which pauperizes will not work,” Mr. Lytle said. {You could pay $2,000:0000 in wages and if it doesn’t develop self-respect, you have failed in your purpose to re‘store thé needy, unfortunate, crippled as productive and good citizens in society. He said that a man’s story of his own piety is not enough for him to gain help from the Goodwill Industries. “He must be willing to work for his food and clothes.”

Nursing Course Planned

In addition to activities already under way, Mr. Lytle sald a home nursing . course is to be in in November. : With books salvaged: from the collections and those" tf nated, a library of 500 volumes ‘has beén established in the community center building. A gamé and social room is to he openéd soon. He also said that Goodwill boys’ and girls’ basketball teams are to be organized next week. Mr. Lytle coneluded his &xplanas tion = with the suggestioh that “perhaps in the Goodwill Industries God is calling the church back to

her primaty puEpost,’

UDDENLY there came a great eafthguéke, in which the foundations were shaken, the doors opened, and every one’s bonds loosed. ‘The jailer, roused from his sleep, and seeihg the prison doors open, was about to kill himself when Pdul cried loudly, “Do thyself ne ‘harm, for we are all here.” It was an amazing scene. Under Paul's example ahd ihfluence, pisonér§ with every oppottunity for
