SAVE MORALS IS WOMAN'S PLEA
Leannah Hubbard, representative of the World's Purity League, pleaded for the "conservation of the morals of the country" in a talk Saturday before the Indiana Meeting of Friends. "War does not only destroy life, but it does destroy morals as well," she
said. She pleaded that Friends "line up for the reconstruction of character" while they are doing war relief work. "If we don't Qod will no longer have any use for us," she declared. "The history of the world shows that war tends to lower moral standards. We must not neglect this work of reconstruction." Friends In Mexico were congratulated for their untiring efforts for the re-organization in that country in a greeting sent there from the Indiana Meeting. Friends in Mexico "stood firm during the last five years" despite the many obstacles in their path.
They are encouraged to be "strong and faithful." "The women are sewing and giving," the report to Dublin Meeting of Friends' was originally drafted. Rev. George Levering objected and requested that the report be changed to "We are sewing and giving." "It will be changed within the limits of the truth," Ancil Ratliff, presiding clerk, responded.
Arthur Guy Empey. author of "Over the Top." who was a headline attraction at this year's Chautauqua, is an enthuaiasUc supporter of the "Tobacco for Sammy" campaign. He has written a letter to the New York Sun. which is conducting a campaign along the same lines as the Palladium's, in which he expresses his interest in the matter. His letter follows: The Evening Sun Tobacco Fund: Enclosed please find check in the
amount of $25 to buy "fags" for "Sammy." In the British army "Tommy" is the pet name for the soldier; we should have one for our boys. I think Sammy has a slam bang punch to it, anyway our soldiers are nephews of Uncle Sam, and I think the old gent, God bless him. would be tickled to death. The Sun certainly has "come through" this time a regular beat, and thousands of our boys during this war, sitting on the fire step of the front line trench with good old American cigarettes in their mouthB, will wireless good wishes across the pond aimed at 150 Nassau street. The Red Cross is a wonderful insti
tution, it saved my life. , The Y. M. C. A. is doing wonderis. S6cks keep your feet warm and rations feed you, but It takes the cigarette or pipe to soothe
you. Just try sitting on a muddy firestep in a front line trench, cold, wet, every joint aching, your heart bursting with homesickness, never knowing when a shell or bullet with your name and number on it will send you boring for oil, then dig into your pockets for a
cigarette and find nothing. You are ready to cash in. Then comes a cheer from a communication trench. Stumbling through the mud, with a large box on his shoulder and a grin on his face, comes a soldier. You can read on the box "Tobacco for Sammy," compliments of The New York Sun Tobacco Fund. You get warm all over, tears run out of your eyes, yes, you a soldier in the front line trench, put there to kill and destroy, are crying like a baby. The boys eagerly gather around the box and when it is opened a hearty cheer rings out which reaches Fritz In his trenches and the Kaiser feels a cold shudder running down his spine and perhaps the victims of the Lusi-
tania in their cold and wet graves at
the bottom of the ea, rest In peace, because they know their boys will avenge their assassination. You are doing a noble work and I am with you. Call on me to help and I will feel proud and honored to do so. Wishing you the success you deserve and a "Come back safely" to every American who goes "Over the Top" in France, I am yours sincerely, A. G. EMPEY.
FRIENDS "HOLD OUT" ON CHURCH
The blessings of God will be withheld until people "learn how to give," the report of the meeting on Ministry and Oversight to the Indiana Yearly Meeting at large sets out. "Our work is hindered by lack of
adequate support and we lose the
blessings of God by our unfaithfulness," the report says. "Friends do not feel the obligations of Christian stewardship."
Rev. Albert L, Copeland. of Cincin
nati, in a talk before the meeting on
Ministry and Oversight declared that "all members of the Frienda church should be firm in the doctrines held by Friends."
QUAKERS FAVOR EQUAL SUFFRAGE
A resolution commending the 1917 Indiana legislature for giving: partial suffrage to the women of the state was adopted by the Indiana Yearly Meeting of Friends in session at the East Main Street Friends' church Saturday. Quakers hope that full suffrage will soon be given women. The resolution will probably be sent to the governor and legislators. Friends have always favored equal suffrage rights.
The Chinese want more railroads, which may mean business for American capital and builders.
Texas Friends in Need of Literature
An echo of the great storm which
swept the coast of Texas two years ago was heard at the Indiana Yearly Meeting of Friends Saturday. Rachael Middleton, of Texas, who has been attending the sessions of the meeting here, pleaded for the sending of literature of Friends in Texas, who lost their all in the storm, and are now without books. An arrangement has been made with Timothy Nicholson who will forward all books given by Friends to League City, Texas.
