Any Keokuk family can mako a
big saving and also be much healthier
by eating the deliciously appetizlng
Minnesota" Spaghetti at least twice
each week In place of meat
Minnesota" Spaghetti is four times
as nutritious as beefsteak and yet
costs only about one cent a dish.
1t contains more proteids than most
foods and is therefore more strength
giving and less fattening.
1t Is fine for children making their
bodies strong and healthy And they
are very fond of its rich, nut-like
flavor.
Insist on getting the genuine Min
nesota" Spaghetti, made from the

declaration has aroused the local po-

her statements were utterly untrue.
But she stuck to her guns and re-
iterated her opinions as expressed at

social evil.

to support their families and provide

"The white slave traffic is fully
organized, with offices, branch of
fees and travelling statesmen. The
police of every city in the United
States, including Washington, protect

who marched in public appeal for

fail to protect the drunken youths

Rev. e. B. Newcomb. who was in
Des Moines last week attending as
Its president the annual meeting OF
the Inter-Church Federation of Iowa,
took time in the service at Westmin
ster church yesterday morning to ten
the congregation something of the re,
suits of the meeting.
A year ago preliminary meeting
was held at which constitution was
adopted for submission to the state
conferences Of the churches represent
ed, the Baptist, Congregational, Dis
ciples of Christ, Methodist Episcopal,
Protestant Episcopal, Presbyterian
and United Presbyterian. This con-
stitution was approved by the state
bodies, and delegates appointed to
perfect the organization. This was
accomplished In Des Moines last
week.
The officers elected we're: Presl-
dent, Rev. T.. b. Newcomb, d. D..

president, Rev. O. w. Fifer (Metho,

secretary, Rev. Elias Handy (Metho-
dist, Atlantic; recording secretary
treasurer, Rev. P. A. Johnson (Congre-
gationaD, Grinnell
The officers constitute the execu-
tive committee, having general charge
of the affairs of the federation. A
committee on comfy, composed or
one member from each church In the
federation, will attempt to adjust diff
ferences arising between churches in
any one community; to secure the
consolidation, or cooperation, of weak
churches where this would allay frie-
ton and secure effective united work;
to advise concerning the establish
ing Of additional churches In COM
munities already sufficiently supplied,
and In every possible way secure the
conservation Of church effort and pre-
vent the waste of men and money
which is almost inevitable where
churches act entirely independent of
each other and of their mutual inter-
ests. The committee, of course. has
only advisory powers, but 1t is believ.
ed that the churches will in time, if
not Immediately, come to recognize
the impartiality of the committee and
the wisdom of considering it's recon-
mendations.
A committee on social service will
investigate and report on problems Of
social and moral reform, with recon-
mendation of action by the federation
as representative OF the church senti-
ment of the state.
There is great need for such cen
trail organization as this, and it is the
hope that by its efforts there will be
secured an increased efficiency in
church work, especially in the smaller
and rural and over-churched commun-
tiles, or churches that are lacking in
religious privileges. All churches en-
