CONVENTION ADOPTS POLICY OF LAYMEN Methodist Men to Work For Ten Per Cent Membership Increase.

SMITH GIVES TALK Y. M. C. A. Official Says Church Is Facing a Crisis At Present. INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 1. The national convention of Methodist men today adopted the policy of the laymen toward the church. The report was read by Bishop McDowell of Chicago and was unanimously adopted with an amendment pledging the laymen to aid in a maximum church membership gain ten per cent per year. The report on the policy pledges the laymen to a program of personal evangelism; the annual gain in membership above mentioned; to the principle of social redemption in all lands; to special efforts in bringing children Into the church and to educate them in the church; to practice the principles of stewardship, recognizing that man is only custodian of the world's I wealth; to the universal introuuction of the every member canvass, and the weekly offering by every man, woman and child in the church; to the full and hearty support to all the boards of the church; to the loyal support of all forms of Christian activity as expressed in educational, philanthropic and evangelist institutions: to an educational campaign for social service; to an emphatic indorsement of the action of the last general conference of the church; to the utmost cooperation with all other churches and to the support and regulation of Christian literature wherever possible. Trend Toward Church. Rev. David G. Downey, book editor for the Stinday school board of the church, in speaking today said that the trend of all essayists and editorial writers today is toward Christianity despite the fact that much of the literature of the day is unmoral, immoral and bizarre. The "best sellers" he said are those dealing with religious themes. "I am not sure that Methodism and Presbyterianism and Congregationalism or any other denomination is going to live forever, but I am sure that the church of the living Christ is going to live forever, and if any of you Methodists expect to live fifty years more you had better get so in love with Methodism that you will still stay in love with it under some other name, the general name that is to be assumed by the church," said Fred B. Smith, head of the Y. M. C. A. movement in America, in addressing the convention last night. Smith's address prove.d to be the sensation of the convention. In Stirring Speech. "There is a crisis in the religious world today. There is a crisis in the industrial world. I attended a meeting the other- day where the plumbers were discussing a strike. One man arose and denounced the church and said that organized labor must crush it to win. Is that not a crisis to face, and this man was cheered tumultously, too. There is a crisis in a financial world. A prominent church man organized an $8,000,000 corporation in forty minutes in New York city the other day and then turning to the men around the luncheon table asked them as to their religious inclinations. Himself and two others were actively engaged in church work. Thirteen others had been at one time but said that they had 'cut it out as there was nothing to it for the financier. Is that not a crisis for the church. There is a crisis in the educational world. A prominent university president said the other day to a speaker rho had addressed 2,000 university men 'They lost interest when you mentioned the church.' Is that not a crisis for the church."

STOLE OVERCOAT; LODGED IN JAIL

After causing the arrest of another man, from whom he said he bought an overcoat stolen rrom Emmett Mitchell of Fountain City, September 17, Alfred Stinson, living southeast of the city, was arrested and confessed to Chief Gormon yesterday that he took the coat. One evening while Mitchell was in the city his overcoat was taken from his buggy. A few evenings later Mitchell entered a shining parlor on Main street. While there he saw Stinson, who was wearing his overcoat. Mitchell rushed to police headquarters and reported the fact. Stinson was arrested but said he had bought the coat and was released. Further investigation caused Stinson to be rearrested and he confessed to the theft. Pe-ru-na Pre vents Catcliiiig Cold. Many people persist in riding on the street cars, insufficiently protected by clothing. They start out perhaps in the heat of the day and do not feel the need of wraps. The rapid moving of the car cools the body unduly. When they board the car perhaps they are slightly perspiring. When the body is in this condition it is easily chilled. This is especially true when a person is sitting. Beginning a street car ride in the middle of the day and ending it in the evening almost invariably requires extra wraps, but people do not observe these precautions, hence they catch cold. Colds are very frequent in the autumn on this account, and as the autumn advances they do not ALWAYS TAKE WRAPS WITH YOU decrease. During the autumn months no one should think of riding on the car without being provided with a wrap. A cold caught in the autumn is liable to last through the entire winter. Great caution should be observed at this season against exposure to cold. During the pleasant days of autumn, the liability of catching cold is great. No wonder so many people acquire muscular rheumatism and catarrhal diseases during this season. However, in spite of the greatest precautions, colds will be caught.

The new mayor may appoint a committee to assist him; he may surround himself with capable department heads; he may have the best of advice, but the fact still remains: Robbins, Zimmerman, Farwig or Sehi will be MAYOR. ' y r No committee, no department head and no adviser, will Preside over Council, Sit as Judge in the City Court, Be head of the Board of Works, Meet visiting delegations, Or represent Richmond Abroad. All these things and many others equally important the Mayor himself must do. Think, Mr. Voter, of the various connections in which your Mayor Must appear, r nd think of the responsibility of directing this municipality of 25,000 human beings, and millions of dollars in property. , Better think now than regret afterward. You have doubtless met all the candidates and have heard their personalities and qualifications fully discussed. Unless you are a blind partisan, the appearance, personality and qualification of the candidate will affect your vote. PARTISANSHIP HAS NO PLACE IN TUESDAY'S ELECTION. THE BEST MAN SHOULD WIN Will J. Robbins is young and vigorous; his frank countenance, clean cut features and steady eye indicate his honesty; his record is as clean as a hound's tooth; he has a good education; he has had experience as a presiding officer; he has made a success of everything he attempted; he was the best recorder Wayne county ever had ; he has good judgment ; his position on law enforcement is correct, and he showed himself the most fearless of all the candidates by being the first to express it ; he will go into office free from promises or pledges and under obligation to no man. From him Richmond may expect an honest, clean, efficient and economical administration. Mr. Citizen, you owe a duty to your city to vote for the man you honestly and conscientiously think is best fitted for the place.
