CHURCH NOTES
Methodist Episcopal
Rev. ]. A. McGfaw, Pastor.

Our financial reports at cSfE
ference last Saturday were ve
satisfactory. Three of
churches are entitled to spes1d
praise for the percent of salxfy
that is paid to date. sS sS
After an interesting sermon
last Sunday morning by Rev.
w. H. Massebeau the church at
Mt. Croghan was presented, ,bv
its officers and the sentence of
dedication was pronounced BY
Bro. Massebeau.
When people go to church the
most of them want to hear a
good sermon. They desire to
listen to a good preacher, there
fore they should try to help
make a good preacher by being
a good listener. Nothing helps
more to make a good preacher
than good listeners. While
pr eaching Sunday afternoon at
Antioch we felt that number
of our hearers were doing their
best for us. We trust they
received something of value
from the preachers efforts.

We enjoyed spending some
time while attending State Mis-
sion conference in Columbia
with Bro. A. G. Baker, pastor of
Southside church. The confer
ence was a good meeting and
we hope that we will realize re-
suits in the future, as it was
unanimously carried that we go
to work now and work on quiet
ly until the close of the State
convention year, and that we
accept the apportionment sent
us by the State executive COM
mittee. 1t affords us pleasure
that our executive committee
did not make our apportionment
anv less than headquarters. 3

called away to White Plains to

became alarmed over the length of the tale. He begged Mrs. Stowe to bring the story of Uncle Toms vicissi- tudes to an end, declaring that it's further extension would involve bring
 ing 1t out in two volumes, with the probability Of great financial loss. The author refused these suggestions. but she publisher, with dire Tnisgivings. stuck to his bargain, and on March 20, 1852, ssUncIe Toms Cabin was placed on sale in the book stores of Boston.
 Neither publisher nor author had dreamed of such a greeting as was ac- corded the novel by the reading pub lie. The political contest over the slavery question in the United States was then at bitter stage, and 'sUn- cle Toms Cabin" was hailed by the abolitionists as an epoch-makfng work that would overturn the hated insti- tuition, while the friends of slavery were impelled to read it in order that they might attack the conclusions drawn by the author. Within a week the novel was selling by the thous- and, and the presses of the young publisher could not supply the de-
 nand. "Uncle Tom's'' fame spread over the United States, but it did not stop there. Tn Canada and England it was read and commented on almost

AND DOMESTIC SERVICE

M T IS A SINGULAR cross current of modern 1 economics, that while in cities wo- men have been holding mass meetings for the unemployed the past month or two yet it is as bard as ever to find domestic servants.
 Probably these idle women think that with spring weather trade will look up, and that the tactories that previously employed them will ask for help again Apparently they would prefer to suffer some Immediate hardship rath- er fhan give up the independence of the factory
 Their bargain seems to be poor one Do mes&1c service would give nearly the same cash wage as unsElled shop work, it would save the payment of board and provide better food.
 But human nature is as 1t is The early Do4pnists found thai the Indians would barter much more corn in return for glass beads than mey would for fhe standard gold and silver coins of Europe. If working women want the nreer life that goes with shop work, the employ ing class must give them that freedom; or pay a higher price for control over their tin1e or must put up with very raw help, or no help at h1l-
 T1e domestic worker has her own social as Dirations- At certain hours the girls of her set kvh0 work in shops have the luxurious freedom of the streets They can meet the men of their hcuuaintance and form plans for the evening entersainmenk No doubt it is much more pru- Henf and much safer to be serving late dinner Eo inc mistress and her family at home But a sense of deprivation rises under these circum- stances in the heart of the girl, as she rebel fiousIy washes her dishes, incidentally smash ing a little china by way of emphasis.
 Servants wages will be high, and many un- employed women will be reluctant to enfer this field, unfil it's hours are more like those of a factory schedule

BISHOP GREER, AT 70 HEADS CHURCH PEACE UNION.

Bishop David HummelI Greer, head of the most populous Anglican diocese in America, that of New York, will reach the ee-score-and-ten mile stone to-day. having been born in Wheeling, w. Va. March 20, 1914. Be-
 sides his many. duties in the episeo-. pate and as a leader in the councils of the Protestant Episcopal Church, Bishop Greer has found time for nu- merous other phiIanthropic activities.
 He is the president of the Church. Peace Union, which will administer the income from sz.0o0. 600 in per cent bonds recently given by Andrew Carnegie to promote the cause of uni .versaI peace. The Bishops heart is very much in this work, and he fully agrees with Andrew Carnegie ssthat the killing of man by man in battle
 is barbaric and negatives our claim to civilization" As head of the working in concert with the bishops and prominent clergy and laymen of the leading religious bodies. Protest ant, Catholic and Jewish. The New
 York Bishop is also the leader in the recently incorporated joint comPis-
 sion of the Protestant Episcopal Church to arrange for a World Con- ference on Faith and Order.
 Bishop Greer is not pessimistic as to
 the outlook for Christianity. In an interview last month he asserted that
 the church .sis in better position and enjoying a healthier state of growth now than at any previous time in his experience. There is a tremendous spiritual thirst through out the land added the Bishop. .The people are hungering for the things
 of the spirit. They want the deep, refreshing stream of religion, and they
 flock eagerly wherever they find it. You may say that not many people go to church, but I tell you that far more go to church to-day than ever went before. Put the right man in a church, and sthes people will come to hear him, and stay to believe Bishop Greer recently celebrated the tenth year of his episcopate. as he was consecrated Bishop Coadjutor o1
 New York early in 1904, and became Bishop on the death of Bishop Potter in 1908. His connection with the
 Protestant Episcopal church has con- tinued for. nearly half century, as he was ordained a. deacon in 1866,

BIRTHDAY OF JUNGLE TONfy WHO KINDLED FIRES OF WAR.

Nowadays that type of dramatic production professionally known as the Tom Show has been relegated to the kerosene circuit" and the nov ef on which it is based has been pick ed to- pieces by literary critics, who have found many faults and flaws in the immortal work of Harriet Beecher Stowe. Yet DO other novel in the history of Literature ever exercised so profound an influence Non human events as ..Unc1e Toms Cabin 2 ..crud9' and "melodramatic' as the critics say it was To-day may be called the sixty-second birthday of .sUnc1e Tom.'' for the novel was first published in book form on March 20. 1852. At the time of it's book publi- cation 1t was still running as4 a ser ial in the t'National Era an aboIi- tionist journal published in Washing ton by Gan1alie1 Bailey. The serial 1851, and. was not completed until the following April. The anti-sIavery paper had a comparatively small cir culation, and Uncle Toms Cabin" provoked no more than a ripple on the surface of events until 1t was brought out as a book. The same phenomenon has been more recently duplicated in the case of Upton Sin clair's novel. 1.-The Jungle" As a ser ial in a socialistfc weekly, the beef trust exposure disguised as fiction passed all but unnoticed. but it's book publication immediately upset the worlds stomach.
 John P. Jewetr, of Boston. was the first publisher of Uncle Toms Cab in-" He was a young man, and his business was not firmly established, when he undertook the publication ot Mrs. Stoves. work He was greatly interested in the early chapters of the serial. and. being an abolitionist. he had sentimental as well as conmer- ciaI interest in giving the story a wide circulation. He contracted with Mrs Stowe for the book rights, but. as the serial publication proceeded. Jewett

WHERE ARE THE DOCToRse

N ATTACHMENTS of medical schools are ex- 1V4 pressing some alarm as to where the future supply of physicians is to come from It is profession that was formerly regarded as overcrowded- Yet figures just made up show only 17,Oi5 medical students in this country now, against q, ,615 ten years ago
 The financial outlook is not very enconrag- ing to the young doctor. He can go back in some country town. in which there happens to be gap, and work up practice in the arduous life of driving about the country roads. Or if he goes to city of some size, he may have to sit around his office many years until he attains 8. recognized standing.

BUYING PORK AND PAVEMENTS BY
 BRAND A VERY BAD PRACTICE

1NHE RELATIONS between the administra- ton and the Warrenite monopoly are evidently too strong to be broken by mere agita- ton. It looks as if more of these pavements would be laid without competition, and doubt less at excessive price. Warrenite pave ment is as good probably as any pavement of it's type Itis better, and the rule is that cities cannot afford to deal in patented articles. This fact is very well known to Mayor Wilson, as witness the recent ado in the Board of Con tract and Supply, over contracts for pork.
 The board claimed and proved that it could not buy to advantage if ordered to purchase A PARTICULAR BRAND of pork, rather than par ticular quality.
 ssWarrenite', is A PARTICULAR BRAND of pavement. The pavement differs little from other bitunino.1s macadams, except by it's name An order for Warrenite confines the city to sgeller. Doubtless there is more pork for this seller, under such conditions and less for the tax payers.
 Why, again, does the mayors confidence in the Board of Contract and Supply stop when he gets to pavements?
