Two Peace Councils to Be Held


 Two peace councils are to be held in Europe this summer. one for Protes- tant ministers in Constance, SwitZer- land; the other for Catholic ones in Liege, Belgium. The dates will be the same Both will open on August 2 A few laymen will attend each, but min isters will preside and control. These ministers will be recruited from the United States and several countries of Europe Both councils will be held un- der the auspices of the Carnegie Church Peace union, founded solely to make it more easily possible for Chris tian ministers to exert their influence in favor of world peace, and they are expected to pave the way for a larger council in 1916, when will be held the next Hague peace conference.
 The movement for the Swiss council originated with the Swiss Protestant ministers. They started at first with out knowledge of the Carnegie move ment. and were afterwards included in it. At Constance will be many Ameri- can clergymen, but fewer than might be the case on some years. since fewer American clergy are gong abroad this season. The Catholic council will be attended chiefly by European clergy, England leading in numbers.
 These councils are promoted and the expense borne by the Peace Union, formed some months ago, and endowed by Andrew Carnegie with $2,oo0.00o. The president of it is the Rt. Rev. Dr. David H. Greer. Episcopal Bishop of New York, the chairman of It's eXecu- tive committee is the Rev. Dr. Charles E. Jefferson of Broadway tabernacle. Congregational. New York. and Car dinals Gibbons and Farley are members of 1t.

a spell but after while there came change, just what we couldn't tell, ex- cept somehow the time began to creep so slowly on that presently it seemed as if the day'd be never done. Our backs were blistered by the sun. our stomachs howled for meat; we wondered if 'twould eer again come time for us to eat. l never saw a day before that crawled along so slow; it seemed as if time stood stock still and ne'er again would go.
 Then when at last we mosied home, paw grabbed us at the gate, and what he gave our blistered backs I'll not enumer- ate. But 1t was plenty, and holding. we hadn't no excuse. We'd hockey played, and couldn't lie: 1t wasn't any use. For here's how twas: I told you first, we acted the durn fool. The teacher had been sick all day; there wasn't any school!

Money Is More Plentiful

 Presbytefian, Baptist and few other societies fell heavily into debt this spring, and are now uniteing in plans Reports coming to leaders of these plans are more hopeful within the past fortnight than they have been for two years at least. One of them, speak ng at meeting of money raisers. most of them professional, predicted that char ity money will be plentiful this fall, and money for Chr stian advance near ly as plentiful as some years back.

 Apart from the millions that are con tributed by regular supporters, other millions are secured annually for ad : vance work. To get these millions men and women are preparing themselves by special training-how to set forth needs what sort of appeal brings in largest sums. and studies of fads and fancies of individual preferences of g:vers These money gift men, whose | numbers steadily increase. are in posi- : ton to judge financial times. and to look ahead.
