multaneous, cvangefistic campaign,
rather than union effort.
(d)-The holding 6f extension

rection of the y. NJ. c. A.
Social Service.
We recommend that the Social Serv-
ice committee make a definite but not
too comprehensive survey OF the con.
ditions affecting the health and well
fare of the people in the community.
We also recommend the following:
1.-Associatiun of Charities. That
the churches cooperate with other
associations or benevolent enterprises
to alleviate the suffering caused by
poverty. sickness or misfortune.
2.-Education That the teaching of
sex hygiene be continued for the boys
and young men, That we cooperate
with the Y. NJ. c. A. i'm the teaching
Of English to foregn-spealtin men
ami in the teaching of civil govern
ment and ideals.
2t-Recreation. That an active ef-
fort be made to secure and maintain
parks for the people and provide and
supervise Fairgrounds for the boys.
4.-Public Health. That the matter
OF garbage collection be followed mo
and improved IL possible. That as
sistance be rendered,.to the Anti Tu-
berculosis society in the work that
they are doing. That consideration be
given to the large amount of insanity
In the county and arrangements made
for an address on this subject before
as many people as possible.
5.-Housing ana General Street
Conditions. That the committee keep
in view the general improvements OF
our city and consider the advisablity
OF having prizes offered for the care OF |
home grounds, gardens. etc.
6.-Good Government. That the
committee render all support possible |
to the judge Of probate in care of ;u-
venile offenders. That the committed
support the health officers in their
work and plan for Improvement of
conditions when necessary.
I've recommend that we co-oper-
ate with all organizations now engag-
ed in any form OF bettcrment work
that the plans may not be duplicated
or interfered with
We realize that there is in this EFFORT
a wide opportunity for usefulness pre-
sented To our churches and we would
THAT the churches actively in

That a Social Service committed

Bible Study.


Your committee believes that intel
ligent study Of the Bible is one of the
best helps in forming good character
in boys and young men as well as In
making older men efficient and sue
cessful i'm Christian service. While
recognizing the good work our
| churches. Sunday schools and Young
peoples societies are doing i'm this line
we feel that much more can be done.
We respectfully recommend as the
ideal for Calumet:
Individual church
Every Sunday school should
have one or more classes for men over
20 for young men from is to %, for
Older boys 10 To IS and for younger
boys ~ to Is.
As a general rule these classes
should be led by men or older boys as
Tar and as soon as this can be done
without displacing efficient women
teachers.
3.-EVery man and boy i'm the church
congregation and parish should be in
vited and if necessary persuaded to
join one of these classes and to he
come not only a member but an ear
nest student of the greatest book i'm
the world.
I've suggest that classes be limit
ed to not more than 10 members and
that at least the olders boys and Young
mems classes be organized with off,
GERS elected by themselves so that
other work or meetings for recreation
nay be planned and carried on.

and support classes for training teach
ers for mems and boys classes.

The committee recommends the or
of an inter church council
for promotion of certain activities not
possible for an individual church Ia
such as:
1.-Talling census Of all n-church

to attend.
2.-To conduct leaders training

Mr.. Rood Would be Delighted.

If Major Philpot wishes joint
discussion and can't find Mr.. Woods.
we would call his attention to Nell
son Lancelot Rood whose home adj
dress is Webster City, Iowa Web
ster City Herald.
And the Major would find that ne
was up against the real thing In
a joint debate with Mr, Rood. The
best thing for both the Major and
Mr.. Woods is to keep out of the way
of Mr.. Rood II they want to avoid
being shown up" Mr. Rood would
be delighted to have a round with
either one Of his opponents Fort
Dodge Chronicle.
The Freeman-Tribune hopes as a
supporter Of Mr.. Woods that he will
not get mixed up in a joint debate
with Mr. Rood Not that Mr.. Woods
side is the weaker or his cause un-
just, but Mr.. Rood is much his
superior in point OF ability. The less
Mr.. Woods appears upon the public
platform the stronger will he be at
the election.

County Drainage.

Hamilton county farmers are
alive TO the Importance and the ben
Gifts OF scientific. drainage. The
board Of supervisors has just receiv-
ed four petitions for the establish
ment of four drainage districts in
that county The petitions are pre-
scented and signed by farmers, who
are occupying and using their own
lands, and no doubt, there win be
little difficulty in getting the disc
tricts established and the work be-
gun and put through Burlington
Hawk-Eye
Hamilton county is now almost
through with the drainage PROPOSE
tion so far as county bitches are con-
cerned. There are now about $50
districts in the county and they cost
approximately million and half
of dollars Land that formerly was
worthless is now valued at $50 per
acre. In some instances II cost as
high as $40 per acre for thing and
drainage but in almost every case
the investment has proved to be "a
good one.

Interesting Tale Of Frenzied Finance
to be Seen at the Alnloyy
M Opera House

Probably few book dramatizations
3 OF recent years have enjoyed the
popularity that has attended
Brewsters. Millions. George Barr
l .McCutcheson' remarkable tale Of
frenzied finance. which will appear
at the armory on Saturday, Oct. 10.
y The title character is in the capable
hands of Clyde Bates and the sup
porting company is one of merit.
The story of the play is familiar to
the average theatregoer and book
reader and tells how Montgomery
Brewster, inheriting million doll
lars from his grandfather, while
given a house-Warming and a sur
prise party by his friends, who
shower congratulations upon him, is
informed by solicitor that his
mothers brother. who has just died,
has left him a fortune of $1,000
600, on condition that he shall
spend the million within year, the
reason for the stipulation being that
the young mans. mother had been
left in. want by the grandfather, and
the uncle does not wish her son to
enjoy an inheritance derived from
that source The conditions arel
that he shall not give the million
dollars away that would be too
simpleyet he is not to be mean.
He must spend it by investing it in
some legitimate way, by investing
in some business, or using it for his
enjoyment and that of his friends.
Above all he must not disclose his
purpose. He accepts the conditions
and his efforts to make himself pen
niless in a short time make up the
fun that follows,
Up to the last minute some COM
plication or other threatens to de-
feat him; but his wit and dexterity
extricate him from every emergency
and he finally succeeds in his task.

or common peoples law. Why! be-
cause when a decision has been made
and under such law peopNe, those VINO
do not like it must go to the expense
OF getting up a petition, call an cleo
tion and do certain things before the
council or the legislature will call an
election, then when the election Is
called these people, no doubt, must go
to a great expense and try to win the
election and they may not do it, nat
urally there would be two sides to
the case. Whereas the legislature OF
the city council vii! doubtless dis
cover very soon that such law or
such construction of the law does
not meet with their approval and as
honest officials elected fresh from
the people would and should do, they
will modify or repeal it to suit. 1t is

Third Party or Prcgressives.

If, as it is true, the progressives
originated in the republican party
years ago and grew and thrived in
that party until it became so great
that a few months before the Chicago
convention it had converted the great
and noted ex-PreslGent Theodore
Roosevelt and made him one of it's
champion fighters and also claimeo
that 1t had majority of the republi-
can party as its advocates and came
SO very nearly nominating Mr.. Roose-
welt for president in that party, where
controlling this party to step aside
form it and undertake to slaughter it
with new party who would say that
if Mr.. Roosevelt had remained with
his party that his powerful influence
and the influence of the progressive
element of the party that they would
have been unable to pass any law in
congress or in the states which they
might have deemed necessary and
proper to pass. l would not belittle

contrary intimation. They could pass
any law or change any law they felt
should be passed or changed. Now
with these admitted facts is it not a
slam on their good name and good in
tentions to leave the party and say
that nc good can come from it and it
must be destroyed. All the good in
the progressive party did come from
it and did live and grow within it and
we may say would continue to grow
and thrive until it would be all con-
trolling. l don't like the idea of the
children turning against the father
and saying there is no good in the
father and he must be destroyed. So
conclude and believe l am justified
with every other regular republican II

Roosevelt and his party leaders are
