ID. Clay Lilly, Field Secretary
This great campaign, inaugurated by
more than fifty of the largest Foreign
and Home Mission Boards of the
United States and Canada, has been
carried on vigorously since early fall.
1t is estimated that six hundred con-
ferences, in as many cities, will be
held during this winter.
When it is remembered that each
one of these conferences reaches a
number of churches, some idea of the
breadth of this campaign is apparent
at once
And when it is remembered that
each one of these conferences means
the adoption of new methods, and a
permanent increase in missionary
giving on the part of some churches,
their value Is seen at once.
There is very little expense attached
to one of these conferences, and this,
when shared by all the churches of a
city is inconsiderable for any one OF
them
OF how much value conference
can be is evidenced by the words OF
these two pastors, whose testimony
might be multiplied many times over
One of them says, Referring to the
recent sessions of the United Mission
airy Campaign held in our town.

New York Cotton.

New York, Jan. THE cotton
market was comparatively quiet this
morning, but fairly steady on re-
ports that a better demand from ex-
porters In the south was being r.
Elected in covering of hedges around
the local ring.
Gables were about as due and the
opening was steady at / point lower
ON October, but generally to 3
points higher Demand was not &C
tive, and there was enough scattered
reaIizirg to cause some irregularity
right after the call. Active months
sold to net higher during early
trading on covering or support from
trade sources.
Demand showed a sufficient falling
off as compared with yesterday, to
suggest that the scattering short in
terest had been pretty well evened up
for over the ginning report on FRI
day. and prices eased off later in the
morning under realizing with active
months showing net losses of to 4
points at midday.
! After showing net loss of about
is to 3 points, the market steadied
during the early afternoon on con-
tinued reports of steady southern spot
markets or renewed covering and
rallied 4 or 5 points from the lowest.

BIG C0LLEGE FIELD
MEET PLANNED FOR
PANAMA EXPOSITION

|. New York, Jan THE announce
ment of the dates for the holding of the
intercollegiate track and field champ
ionships of America in conjunction
with the sports of the Panama-Pacific
exposition in 1915, attest to the scope
of the exposition from a competitive
standpoint and marks the beginning of
the end of that time when such con-
tests were practically confined to the
colleges of the east, as the acceptance
of the dates. Aug. 20 and 81, displays
desire on the part of the intercot-
legiate association to take in the whole
OF the United States.
1t is expected that long before the
time of the holding of the events all OF
the principal universities and colleges
cd the middle west and the coast will
have been made members of the l. C. \.
A. A., so that the athletes of the far
west will have their first real oppor-
tunity to measure strides WITH the
fasteners under California skies, and
in climate which has been prolific of
performances rarely duplicated when
the westerners invaded the precincts
in which the sports have been inyaria-
bly, held
That some truly remarkable per
formances will be made in these sports
as we'll as the many others of both ma
tional and international characte-
which will be decided during the pro
gress of the exposition, is made mani
fest with the intention of the man
agement to build one-third of a mile
track with quarter mile straightaway
lIOr special races.
AS number of the best men in tho
world will be seen in competition ii
the games marks should be hung up in
the running events which will endure
for some time, or at least until that
period when similar conditions pre-
vail with such champions in cempeti-
ton If not beaten before that time
it seems assured that the long standing
mark of AT seconds for 440 yards
straightaway, made by Maxey Long
the former intercollegiate champion lii
1900, will in all likelihood be wiped out
during the progress of the games.

The Countrywide problem is primar-
lily one of community organization.
The great rural need is an organization
in each community that will include
the whole interest and enlist the unit
ed energy Of the people.
The aims of such an organization
may be stated as follows:
First To Increase Production, Q)
through improved methods of cultiva-
ton; (2) by diyersifcation; co by seed
selection; a. by conservation of soil
and other natural resources.
Second: To Increase Profits, a.
by cooperative marketing; (2) by CO.
operative manufacture; 90 by cooper
alive use of improved implements; (4
by preventing waste; 90 by providing
cheap working capital through rural
credit associations.
Third: To Increase the Length of
Human Life, 0) through nutritious
food; (2) by sanitary, comfortable, and
attractive houses; CD by education,
study, investigation, demonstration !;
(4) by community efforts for moral
and mental progress; % by the use
of modern conveniences in the home
60 through religious and social eff
forts.
The School as an Agency.
In number of important directions
the school, if properly administered,
will prove the most effective agency
for community organization.
The school should have beside a
! room for each teacher, a workshop, a
kitchen, and an auditorium of sufficient
size to accommodate comfortably all
general community meetings, and
should be designed for comfort, proper
heating, lighting, and ventilation. 1t
should be located on five to ten acres
of land so arranged as to allow ample
Fairgrounds, shade trees, flowers, a
home garden, and demonstration plat
! The community school unit should
be large enough to jutify the employ

School Clubs.
1t has been the policy of the pro-
motors ofSboys' and girls clubs to or
ganize them through the schools, but
this feature of community organization
needs strengthening from the school
side. The club should be an integral
part of the school, just as the literary
and debating society are a part Of our
high schools and colleges.
Other Clubs.
There should also be farmers clubs
and womens' clubs. The farmers clubs
should have as their purpose cooper
alive production, cooperative buying
and selling, cooperative rural credit
and cooperation for cultural opportun-
tiles.
The womens' clubs should concern
themselves with cooperative study of
household management, cooking, san
itary, and hygienic problems; labor
saving devices; and enterprises of So
cial, literary, musical, and artistic in
terest.
Health.
The first and most important COM
mon interest of the community is
health. Through the assistance of the
county health officer and the state
board of health every community
ought to learn how 20 prevent the
spread of infectious and contagious
diseases. Systematic instruction
should be given in the school in such q
practical, concrete way that the laws
of health, as affecting the individual,
the home, the school, and the commune
ity, should become common knowl-
edge. The schoolteacher should either
lead in these matters that pertain to
the complete organization of the COM
munity or discover and stimulate the
necessary leaders in the community.
