were adopted:
Woodbury., N. j., Oct. II, 1911.
WHEREAS, Thomas M. Ferrell, can
didate for Congress in the First
IlDistrict of New Jersey, and for
II mer National President Of the Glass
II Bottle Blowers Association, and
the man who led the fight again st
i the "shinplaster system" of wage

RESOLVED, That we the members

loyal support, with full assurance,
that with us it is not an experiment,

which later created the Department
of Labor and Commerce; also bill
prohibiting the importation of for
eign labor under the Contract System,
of which bill John Mitchell, in ad-
dressing a convention of coal miners
made the following statement: Had
it not been for the legislation enacted
through the efforts of Congressman
Ferrell, of New Jersey, prohibiting
the importation of foreign labor un-
der the Contract System, the condi-
ton of the miners in the United States
would be sad indeed.
Mr.. Ferrell's record as Assembly
man, Senator and Congressman stands
out clean and clear as a loyal advo-
cate for the rights of the whole peo-
pie And be it further
RESOLVED, That these resolutions
be spread on the minutes of the

Federation OF Churches.

At the last meeting held in Wood
bury on October 9th, it was decided
to postpone the permanent organiza-
ton of the Federation until the day
of the County Sunday School Conven-
ton on Thursday, October 26th. A
meeting will be held in the NJ. e.
Church at Wenonah, at 4.30. The
County Sunday School Committee has
generously given us this place on the
program.
Rev. Hugh B. MacCauley, of Tren-
ton, will address the meeting Gil the
question of Federation. 1t is highly
important that every church in the
county be represented by the pastor,
administrative board of the church.
It may be that some churches will
find it more convenient to have their
delegates to the Sunday school con-
vention to represent them also at
this meeting. We have all felt the
need of closer cooperation among the
churches; we realize that energy is
wasted by working separately which
might be used for the promotion of
the Kingdom by working together;
we cannot afford to waste any of our
strength; we need it all for the bat
tie which is before us. 1t is not ex-
pected that any church will relinquish
any of its individuality by joining the
Federation. The county Sunday
School Association is interdenomina-
tional, yet no one thinks that any
school in the county has lost any
thing peculiar to it in theory or prac-
tice because it is member of move
ment organized for the promotion of
the common good. The Federation
aims to be to the churches what the
Sunday School Association is to the
Sunday schools At the present time
we all work Independently and lose
the great advantage of concerted ac-
ton. The Federation is an agency
for making effective the sentiment of
the Christian people of the county.
1t is an organization of the church
banded together,
For the wrongs that need resist
ance,
For the rights that need assistance,
For the future in the distance,
And the good that we can do.
Come and join with us at the next
meeting.
