But at the meeting of the supervisors
these suggestions by the civil service
commission were dlssected, Jumped on
and macerated. The fact that the com
mission made such recommendations
was resented, while the small expense,
report was allowed only in part, $3.50
for printing being disallowed alto
gcther, and this the commissioners may
be called upon to pay out of their pri-
vate funds.
In the report on the recommendations
submitted by the ways and means com
mttee of the supervisors, the commit
tee. among other assertions, says that:
IF we allow the powers assumed by
the commission to go unchallenged, we
would be negligent in our duty. The

see that in 1913 the number of such
local societies is much increased.
Grumbling is heard in half dozen
quarters about this social service em-
phasis on the part of the churches. 1t
comes from the older people, who cry
out that real religion is being neg
lected and that what revivalistic
methods were good enough forty years
ago are good enough in 1913. Some
national committees are just now
wrestling with these conservatives, and
having hard times TO keep themselves
together. Open breaks are not unlikely,
it is admitted. With the powerful lead
of the social justice workers, however,
it would seem that nothing can prevent
the year 1913 from witnessing a big
development of social work on the part
of the churches.
