The home mission carnpaign began

some data sufficient to furnish them

in this data. already mailed 10 them,
directions for observing the week. with
liberty, of course. to make such i'm
provements as local situations de-
mand.
In this home mission campaignA are
Joined all of the home mission boards
except the Protestant Episcopal. There
are also Joined all of the wonian's
home boards. The thing is a pull al
together to put before the American
people the fact that America is a field
as we'll as a force. In putting before
the people this and related facts the
most comprehensive and at the same
time the most expensive data is fur
nished ready for Immediate use. 1t Is
a campaign OF home mission education
along social and religious lines, the
former to be particularly we'll empha-
sized.
Some Misunderstanding, now steam
rollered out. arose because the Epis-
copal board of missions declined to
unite in the campaign. People who are
trying to lead movement toward
Christian unity ought to be willing
to unite on something. II was argued.
The trouble proved to be that the
board was unable, through lack of au-
thority, to commit the home mission
interests Of its church. Such interests
are In the hands of local bishops. Be-
fore this legal point came out diocesan
conventions had met and adjourned.
Efforts are now making to get bishops
to act, but IL is feared the time is too
short. The expensive data has there
fore been posted to all ministers and
Christian leaders in America, save the
Protestant Episcopal
About $4,000 viii be expended in
the campaign. Twenty-Five hundred
cities and towns, having populations OF
$500 or over, are being organized and
they in turn are pledged TO send men
10 villages around them. By this plan
it is hoped by these eampaigners to
cover the country.

Spring Is here

No one really can anticipate Spring to
the degree as when you are a garden en-
thusiast and anticipate it in the pages of a
seed catalogue; that ever alluring book
''seed catalogue" with it's wonderful
pictures and stories on those garden veget-
ables and flowers. such as the like we nave
never grown before, and how all our deci-
sions of yesterday and last year have gone
to pieces with the likes of a new catalogue.
We simply can't resist; it is very strange,
but nevertheless, true that seed catalogue
has more magnetic power than some of the
finest orators in the land.
My experience this year was with the
celebrated Mitchell's Catalogue Of that
famous house in Philadelphia. 1t is a
wonderful catalogue containing so many
new things, that one is agreeably surprised
when reading the pages, Their greatest
novelty is an Eyerblooming Shrub, which
produces flowers, that nave the fragrance
of both the lilac and heliotrope. Just i'm
agine such a combination and they flower
continuously from July until frost.
Now, if you want to read all about this,
just simply write a postal card to the
MITCHELL SEED House in Philadelphia
and they will promptly mail you one OF
these catalogues. Enjoy with me the
pleasure of anticipating Spring. Adv.

ing done in the schools to-day?' To-day,
began, Mr.Twitmyer, is Il period of trans-

affairs. The schools are to help the
children into a possession of themselves.
There are many kinds of agitation for
conversation in this country to-day, hut
the most important conservation, that OF
the child, is never heard of. We may go
to Washington and find many depart
ments devoted to conservation. but there
is non devoted to securing the conserva-
ton OF our child life.
The school OF to-day is a ''socialized in
strument." The school room should be
made inviting and attractive. An atmos-
phere and spirit should be created into
which the children may grow into better
things, and then the annoying problems
Of the school will take care OF themselves.
There are three important things to
teach: l. The care and protection of the
body. 2. Mental growth and develop
ment. 3. Enlargement Of the students

"We are looking ahead. Human
efficiency should be the end toward
which we work, with the consequent ell
largement and enrichment of the child's
life. A fine ethical feeling and sense of
the fitness OF things should be cultivated,
and to secure the best cooperation be-
tween teacher and pupil, the child should
be taken into partnership, and made to
feel jointly responsible in everything that
is done"

Lords Dav Week

To pastors of Christian cliurches,-to
officials and members OF churches, labor,
reform, and patriotic societies, and to all
friends of the Lords Day,-Greeting!
April 18th to Dist will be the 34th an
nual Worlds Week of Prayer for the bet
ter use of the Lords Day, which we earn
estly invite you to observe.
During these thirty-four years. certain
churches, unions, and friends, have OBJ
served this annual period with lncreas-
ing and enlarged interest, and we hope
that this year, the number will be much
greater thar ever before.
1t is reported that in Great Britain,
more than twenty thousand sermons were
preached, appropriate to the day, on
Lords Day Sunday, and we hope that
more than that number OF churches will
be reached in 1912.
Never has the attack on the day of rest
and worship been so extensive and ag-
gressive as in 1911. Organized efforts to
~legalize Sunday trade and sports have
been most determined i'll character. A
spirit of pleasure seeking has threatened
to make it a holiday, while a spirit OF
greed has tried to open it to different
commercial enterprises.
The Rest Day Organization Of the
country, together with other sympathetic
forces, have stood in defense of a. quiet,
decent sacred Sunday, and their efforts
have been almost invariably successful;
yet, We realize, that the allied forces Of
the 'world, flesh and the devil" have
not been scattered but are simply held in
check for the time being.

Enforced sanitation among dairy farm
ers supplying milk to Burlington dealers,
which, when introduced three years ago
met with intense antagonism, is now re-
cognized as a boon by nearly every pro-
ducer, and many OF the farmers are in
actual rivalry for the best inspection
scores.
Franklin Carter, president of the Burl-
ington Board of Health, in comment
upon the annual visit to this section of
the state inspector, says:
"Some of the farmers who opposed al
most with violence the initial demands of
the health authorities for clean stables
and sanitary surroundings, are now the
most enthusiastic advocates of the new
system. The new rules have virtually
revolutionized the dairy business for
these rural business men. Some of >the
dairy farmers who quit the business
rather than continue it under the new
regulations have seen their neighbors
who complied with the conditions inn
posed hourished as never before" he
continued. 'Not alone has enforced san
itation lessened the fatal diseases among
cattle, but the cows, i'll healthier sur
roundings, have increased their milk pro-
w Wy q COllcltCldD1G p6lCSuld26.
PROUD OF CLEAN STABLES
"Whltewash i'll their COW barns opened
the eyes OF dairymen to other defects,
and many OF the farmers are now as
proud OF clean stables as their wives are
of well-kept homes. The influence of
stable Improvements in more thar one
case has led to home Improvements"
Carter tells the story of a farmer who
was compelled by the health authorities,
much to his disgust at the time, to sink a
driven well because analysis proved the
water from bis surface well to be tainted
and contaminated. 81 visited his place
a few days ago." he said, land the farm
er could not wait for me to reach the
buildings before he began to tell me of
the Improvements that had followed the
drilling OF the new well and the i~nstalla-
ton of a power pump. Not only was
water piped to all bis barns, but he had
installed a modern bathroom, with hot
and cold water and all accommodations
Ill his home.
Another farmer discovered hat there
were windows i'll the sides of his COW
barn which for years he had not seen be-
cause OF their covering of dirt. He has
now one OF the Understanding diaries in
the county.
BURLINGTON DIARIES SCORE HIGH
Reports received from the State Board,
local health authorities find, give the
diaries supplying Burlington a higher per.
centage than those of any city of like size
in New Jersey. The local officials say
there is still much room for improvement
and predict that the fact that local retail
ers, after submitting to fines for selling
milk below standard, are now testing al
the milk they buy, will compel SOM
dairymen, still negligent, to come up t.
the line or quit business.
