HOME MISSION WORK INCREASE IS SHOWN IN FRIENDS' REPORT

Home mission work waa considered by the Five Years Meeting In it morning and afternoon sessions. An expenditure of $56,369 in the last five years -was reported. For Southland Institute the annual income. In addition to Interest on invested funds, has been practically doubled, increasing from about $4,000 to approximately $8,000 from Friends in the north, the report indicated. During the same period, however, the expenses of the school have increased from a budgt of approximately $10,000 In 1919, to more than $15,000 In 1920, and more than $16,700 in 1921-22. Support of work among the Indians from Friends of the Five Years Meeting also has doubled during the past five years, the report stated. Work Shows Increase. The evangelism and church extension report indicated that evangelistic and Christian extension -work, outside of work among Indians and Negroes had increased at least 15 fold In the past five years. In regard to future work lur the home mission board the report said: - "We dubt the necessity of having separate departments of evangelism and Church Extension, and Social Service. Our experience has been that the two work together as one. "Wo are Impressed with the need for more study and better understanding of the problems of our meetings In large cities. We recognize ' the great need for farther study of the ! problems of our rural meetings and a closer co-operative touch between them and the church at large. We question whether some . systematic policy of proportloate and con' ditional financial aid to new or weak meetings might not prove more helpful than our present methods of giving assistance. Repeatedly we have felt the need for a central building fund which might be loaned on interest to

.yearly or local meetings, and believe careful consideration should be given soon to the possibility of creating

such a fund. Concern for Foreigners.

"We have felt a deep concern regarding the responsibility which Friend3 may have for interpretation of Christianity to various groups of foreigners in this countdy. We also have felt a definite concern that Friends should encourage and direct

the work of our young men and women in religious and social channels. We are conscious of an especial need for a fresh recognition of the possibilities latent in the desire of many of our young women to be of service through the church. "We have a deep desire to co-operate with our local meeting to increase the understanding and practice of the principles of Christian democ racy in industry and other social relations so that every person, of every race, shall have full opportunity for the highest development of his powers. After modifying the text ef a letter In which President Harding was asked to release political prisoners for "Things they thought or said" during the World war, the miasive was ordered sent An appendix to the discipline containing the names of members of various boards and other officials will be printed. Church Lack Appeal The rural church lacks a 'definite,

strong and stirring appeal to its own

membership, said Kenyon P. Butterfield. Its purposes should be, he said,

the interpretation of the teachings and spirit of Christ the terms of every

day life.

"There is perhaps no great difference between the country and city church in the essentials, he said, "but

there are some sharp differences growing out of conditions concerning the methods and types of appeal. There is a vast difference between the city and rural environment There is a Jural psychology. The instruments are the same but the channels through which they work are different in the rural institutions. These things suggest differences in program. "Every church should be a community church so far as possible and each community should have a church. The church must be willing to sacrifice itself as an institution if it is to. serve the whole community. There must be

a rooting out of denominational rival

ry. 1-speciauy trained ministry in im

portant. There must be a rebirth of Intelligent interest by the laity. The church should make a contribution to

agricultural missions."

BARGE LINE FOR. GOAL REVIVED BY STRIKE

(By Associated Press) CINCINNATI. Ohio, Sept 1L Present unsettled conditions in rail transpo nation again is drawing the attention of business men and shippers generally to the waterways' possibilities of relieving the congestion which has been imminent ever since the rebellion of railroad shop workers, according to traffic experts here. Particularly keen is the interest, of coal operators of the south in the proposed construction of the barge canal connecting the Ohio river -with Lake Erie, it is said. - Information received'by the Cincinnati chamber of commerce shows that

coal operators of the Tennessee, West Virginia and Kentucky fields are ready to give their support to any

definite movement looking toward the

construction of such a canal, especially the suggested route from Cincinnati to Toledo. - -v This route, it is pointed out would offer an outlet for southern coal shippers to the Great Lakes ports, via Cincinnati. Coal could be shipped by rail from the mines to Cincinnati, reloaded on self-propelled barges," and sent to its final destination, on the lake ports at a much lower freight rate, it is claimed, than now la charged for all rail delivery.

LIVE STOCK REQUIRE SALT Salt is required by all animals. Tha United States Department of Agriculture says that the dairy cow requires an ounce or more a day, and while she should be given all she needs, she should not be forced to take more than she wants,. It is best therefore, to give only a small quantity on the feed, and to plaee rock salt in the boxes in the yard, where the stock can lick It at willw.
