A NEW CREED FOR HI
THE PROTESTE
The new creed presented to the
Federal Council of the Churches
of Christ in America, now in ses-
sion in Chicago, indicates that
these churches are working up,
and finding out that they must
get closer to the people-in touch
with their daily life.
1t may be that some preachers
are finding out why many preach
ers have been preaching to empty
pews, and why so many of the
worlds toilers have been weaned
away.
At this Chicago meeting, 81
Protestant denominations and
about 100000 members are
represented. The new social
creed presented for their adop-
ton declares that the churches
must take stand m favor of the
following:
Equal rights and complete
justice for ALL.
Single standard Of purity, uni
form divorce laws, regulation of
marriage, proper housing.
Best development of ALL chill
dren.
Abolition Of child labor.
Regulation of labor of women
to safeguard physical and moral
health.
Abatement and prevention of
poverty.
Protection of society from
waste of the liquor traffic.

DELIGHTED WITH
NEW LOCATION

Our former townsman, Frank j.
Heilmann, is now located at Por-
tales, N. NJ, where he is bus, on
his newly acquired farm. Prais-
ing the location and opportunities,
he says:
Portales, N. NJ, Mar. 5, 1912
To whom it may concern:
This is to certify that l have
made thorough examination of
the conditions in the Portales VAL
ley, and l am convinced that it
presents the best opportunities for
irrigation farming and fruit grow
ing of any place in the west When
l say the west, | speak advisedly,
having visited most all the places
of note where irrigated farms could
be had, before coming to the Por-
tales Valley.
The water supply here is abund-
ant and is obtained at depth of
from eighteen to twenty feet. You
will see thousands of gallons of the
best water on earth pumped from
the ground at minimum cost, in
fact, this method of irrigation is
much cheaper and more reliable
than the artesian wells Here they
have the largest producer gas
pumping plant in the world.
The climate is adapted to the
growing of fruit, alfalfa, sugar beets
and all kinds of vegetables. As
many as five crops of alfalfa are
cut here in one season and yields
from one to two tons per acre at
each cutting.
If you are thinking of hunting a
new location, you should certainly
visit the Portales Valley before
settling

for my faith in this country is nv

of many similar experiences which
come to Star-Mirror advertisers each
day. Morgareidge. Woody & Co., have
found in the real estate business that
Star-Mirror want ads are profitable.

in the Moscow Business college in

potatoes in the Star-Mirror last week.
The very next day he announced to
the editor that he didn't know there
were SO many potatoes raised in La

When advertisements get results
like that there must certainly be some
reason. And there is a reason. 1t is
that the Star-Mirror reaches the peo-
pie.

This paper covers this county lik
the good spring rains. No paper eve

subscription list as the Daily Star
Mirror has. 1t is the one means O
reaching every section of the county
when you want to reach them. The
paper is read, because its news is
crisp and up to the minute. The peo-
pie who read it are the people who
are progressive and who are not afraid
to spend a trifle more to get what
they want. 1t goes onto every rural
route in the county and has a splendid
among the farmers.
If you have anything to advertise
it will pay you to advertise it in the
