Experts on Church Work

The great feature of practical church
work of the early winter is the organ
ization of individual churches on scien
tifc lines. Churches in New York and
Chicago, possibly in some other cities
having means at command, are imitat-
ing industrial plants in calling in ex-
perts to teach workers scientific
methods. In manufacturing concerns

1t is predicted that within a few years
churches in great numbers will have

laywomen, at permanent work and fair
remuneration.

Religious Bodies Ask Aid of
Wilson and Daniels
Movement
BELIEVED CONGRESS
WILL GRANT REQUEST
Welfare Secretaries on Warships Also
Asked-Plan Which Origi-
mated With Y. M. C. A.
May Be Adopted

New York, December 13.-(Special -
Most religious bodies, Protestant and
catholic, through their respective gen
eral organizations, and the federal
council representing all Protestant
ones, are pushing for increase in num-
Der of army and navy chaplains. Their
pleas have now been approved by secre-
tary Daniels of the Navy, and appeals
are going to President Wilson to back
up all as far as he can The opinion
obtains that Congress may not grant
the increase this year but that soon
1t Will do so. The newest feature of
the plea, also indorsed by Secretary
Daniels, is for welfare secretaries on
warships. These latter are to be lay
men. They are to be trained for their
work, and to be carefully apportioned
between Protestants and Catholics.
They are to assist chaplains, if any
abroad, and are to look to the social
and recreational life of enlisted men,
Some years ago most enlisted men We're
foreign born, but today they come al
most wholly from small towns and the
country of the middle west--American
in the best sense of the word, and
is commanded by the services of any
other nation
This welfare secretary plan came
originally from the Young Mems Chris
ton association, which at it's own cost
put men aboard warships when Pres
ldent Taft sent these ships to gulf ports
during the early days of the Mexican
Difficulty, In the army they came IN
at the time of the Spanish American
war, the suggestion of william b. Mil
lar and soon indorsed and helped by the
late Dwight l.. Moody. There Is work
for the chaplain, who is a minister and
holds official rank, and there is also
work for the welfare secretary, who
can do things the commissioned and
ordained official cannot. The new plan
is carrying the parish of the average
church abroad ship and into the army
camp. Christian people feel certain the
government will adopt the plan Within
very few years.

SQUIRES GUARDIAN
FOR BLOOMFIELD

John Squires was Wednesday ap-
pointed guardian of the person and
possessions Of George Bloomfield, the
pioneer farmer who for the past four
months has been confined in the hos
pital at Colfax. Bloomfield, who Is
past 80 years of age, has been de-
clared mentally incompetent by the
court, and upon Mr. Squires will fall
the responsibility of the management
of Bloomflelds 600-acre farm three
miles southwest OF Pullman, and the
building occupied by the Palace
hotel.
Mr.. Bloomfield is a pioneer of this
section, having farm ed his acreage
for many years. Five years ago,
however, he rented the place and
came to Pullman and lived at the
Palace hotel About four months ago
he left town suddenly and was locat-
ed in Dayton, Wash, where he had
been taken in charge by the officers
because of his peculiar actions.
Friends of the aged man took him to
Colfax and placed him in the hos
pital, where he has been ever since,
and his failure to improve in health
vas the cause for the appointment of
a guardian.

.F|ST|C ENCOUNTER
NETS CITY $3.50
Roy Shaw Pleads Guilty to Third
Degree Assault and Is Fined $50
and Costs-Rent Controversy
Causes Trouble

Roy l.. Shaw, a student of the
State College, was on Tuesday
afternoon fined $50 and costs in JUS
tice Henrys court on a charge of as
sault and battery, preferred by Ray
Walker. According to the warrant,
Roy Shaw did on the 18th day of
N0Vem Der wilfully and unlawfully'
assault, beat and knock down the
said Ray Walker in an attempt to ex-
tort money from the said Ray
Walker unlawfully, and did then and
there unlawfully and feloniously
threaten to beat him, the said Ray
Walker, to death if he did not COM
ply with his demands to give him a
certain sum of money which he then
and there named"
The warrant was served Tuesday
morning by Deputy Sheriff Baker
and Shaw was at once taken before
Justice Henry. The trial was set for
next Saturday at , p. m, and cash
bonds of $3.50 were furnished by
Shaw. Tuesday afternoon, however,
Shaw again appeared before Justice
Henry and asked permission to enter
a plea of guilty, which was granted,
and a fine of $50, together with
$3.50 costs was assessed. This was
DromDtly maid by Shaw.
The story of the case, as related
by Walker, is that Shaw rented a
house through him at $3.50 per
week last July, paying this amount
in advance and stating at the time
that he might not rem ain in the
house more than a couple of weeks.
In two or three days Shaw left the
house and on last Tuesday met
Walker in front of the Dutton resi-
dence on College hill and demanded
the return of the unearned rent
money. This was refused by Walker,
whereupon Shaw slapped him with
his open hand, knocking Walker
down, and threatening further VIC
lence If the amount was not immedi-
ately forthcoming.
Following the airing of the differ
ences in police court the two men
shook hands and Shaw stated that
The trouble had been a good lesson to
him.
