TALK ON INCEPTION OF A BROTHERHOOD

S. E. Nicholson Speaks Before the Lutheran Organization.

POLITICAL CHANGES

Are Now Taking Place in Many Countries, Speaker Declares.

S. E. Nicholson discussed "Great Movements of Our Times" before the meeting of the Lutheran Brotherhood on the lawn at Adam Hanoi's residence, South Sixteenth street, Sunday evening. Mr. Nicholson spoke of the inception of the brotherhood movement, the Ideas, and purposes which it sought to incorporate. He said the world is throbbing with a new vision. Moral and political changes are taking plac in China, ,1a pan, India, Africa and in the United States. Following Mr. Nicholson's talk the members enjoyed a pleasant social hour. Several musical numbers were on the program. Rev. Stovall's Sermon. The Kev. V. O. Stovall of the First Raptist churca built his sermon yesterday morning around the thought that "Christ is the T'niversal King and the Individual Savior." "Christ," he said, "is the center of all religion. To determine whether a movement were really Christian this must be used as a test. The question should always be asked to lind out whether Christ, or some individual or organization is the center of a movement. History has shown that whenever a great reform has been started, based upon the teachings of Christ, that a great moral uplift has been the result." As examples of this point, the Rev. Stovall gave the Reformation of Luther and Wesley's Methodism.

Factories and Community Growth

APPLE CROP INJURED

Only Normal Crop in Central Part of State.

An apple crop survey of Indiana made under the direction of the Indiana Apple Show Commission shows that the 19K apple crop lies principally in the central part of the state. In the northern part, considerable damage was done early in May by frost. "Fire Blight" and drouth, somewhat worse than usual is responsible for an adverse departure from normal conditions in several southern counties. "The apple crop conditions," said C. G. Woodbury, secretary of the Indiana Apple Show, "are similar to those of two years ago, and just the reverse of last year. Considering the state as a whole, Indiana should have fully as large a yield as last year. From the numerous reports of frost and blight damage which came to our office a month ago we then feared an extremely light crop. The recent crop survey, however, shows that the Indiana Apple Show will have, in the present crop, a splendid resource, and promise of an exhibition far ahead of any in the past." The past spring was a particularly unfavorable one for fruit in the Ohio Valley. Indiana, however, was much more fortunate than some neighboring states. Ohio and West Virginia report the lightest crop for years. In contrast to some others then, the Indiana orchardist has been kindly treated by Nature this year. If he has sprayed and taken due care of hia orchard he should command profitable prices in ready markets. The marketing problem should be easier this year on account of the larger and clearly defined regions where there will be no home grown fruit of market quality. Many orchardists who did not sell a bushel of apples last year will be pleased with more than average profits this fall.

BY LEO L. REDDING. (Copyright, 1912, by Town Development Company.) The getting of factories for a town is a common and at the same time a i very proper ambition. It is the one tangible evidence of activity to which your Board of Directors can "point with pride." It is an important phase of community development work for the reason that no other one achievement so materially aids in the growth and material development of the community. Being a popular phase of town development work, it has come to be considered a difficult one. As a matter of fact, the getting of new industries is just like any other ordinary business proposition. It hin- ; ges on the selling ability chiefly. There are certain fundamentals that govern, and no town can hope to succeed in efforts for industrial development until those fundamentals are un- , derstood and mastered. Then there are mistakes to be avoided mistakes that are too often discovered only through unhappy experiences. In the first place, no town should attempt to secure the location of industries until after a careful analysis of local conditions as bearing upon manufacturing has been made by some one competent to do so and the conditions as found summed up and logically arranged for future use. This study of local conditions bas come to be known as an industrial survey. This survey, properly made, should bring out clearly the town's advantages for manufacturing and distributing. It should also evidence any disadvantages that may exist. From such survey it should be a simple matter to get, by deduction, the kind of manufacturing that local conditions are most favorable for, the kind that might be expected to do fairly well, and finally the kind that should be advised to stay away. Such survey should be so complete as to permit the secretary to tell the inquiring manufacturer the exact, cost of fuel, labor and of raw material in his particular market; to give details as to character of transportation the town has to offer, to outline living conditions for both employer and era-

I ploye and generally to be able to

furnish promptly on request all the information demanded by the prospective manufacturer. Because of the competition among communities for good manuracturing plants and because of improved community conditions through effective commercial organization work the manufacturer takes every phase of community life into consideration in selecting a location. The welfare of his employes is given serious consideration, for the modern manufacturer has learned that good homes for his workingmen increase their efficiency and improve his output. This industrial survey will point out the character of industries that should be sought for the community. The organization should be firmly honest with itself and the manufacturer and be courageous enough to decline an offered manufacturing plant if that plant comes in the list for which that particular community is not adapted. Nothing is more disheartening and nothing more disastrous to successful community building effort than having a factory fail in its new location. The successful factory is a constant source of satisfaction and of profit to the community. The factory that fails is more emphatically a source of sorrow and regret for years to come. Much of the evil and disappointment resulting from the failure of newly located industries in the past has been due to too great anxiety on the part of the directors to "get an industry." Too often committees have been deceived by the clever arguments of the promoter. Citizens have been induced to take stock in enterprises that looked good on paper, but proved worthless in practice. A very good rule to follow in Investigating industries that might be secured for a community is to investi

gate chiefly two things the character of men who are going to run the industry and the character of the output. It is one thing to make an article and another to find a market for it. Go slow on the industry that proposes to manufacture something new for the market. Do not be too much impressed by the volume and value of the machinery that can be moved to your town or the number of people who it is evident will have to be

employed in the plant.

To prevent these disastrous marriages every girl carries a record of her birthday in her name, each day of the week having a letter belonging to it. and all children are called by a name which begins with that letter.
