can be said, that the money paid out
for church advertisements comes back
to the church from the persons who
are attracted by the advertisements.
Church advertisements are legitimate
Churches must be modern if they at

who adapted himself to the customs
of the people. He did not desire to
assume any peculiar ways to attract
attention to himself His work was
for the Master and he used modern

Ardmore pastors can double church

they have done that, they have done a

The Galician campaign has reached

Germans. The Petrograd communities
ton says little of the battle along the
San, but states the Russians have won
some advantages in the fighting furth-
er south in the Dniester region.
Official advices from the Italian

ians as gaining advantage all along the
front, particularly in the Adige valley,
which leads to Trent.
The Turkish forces on Gailipoli pen

Increase of Social Opportunities

Union farm hands, union hours.
union wages, union strike troubles and
arbitrations are to have a trial on

P. Richardson of Fort Scott. who will
spend his summer months organizing
the farm hands of the state. Rich
ardson declares that the farm hand
union will educate the farmer to ap-
preciate and respect the rights of its
members. But If the farmer is not
an apt student of the school of organ
lied labor, a reasonable amount of
force may be employed.
The plan advanced by Richardson
is for ten hour day on the Kansas
farm. That means that milking cows
by lantern light and feeding the stock
at bedtime will be just as much out of
style as the hoop skirts and poke bon
net. Richardson would revolutionize
the plan which demands that a farm
hand arise at a. m, and feel his
way up dark stairs to bed at ID. m,
with a batting record of 15 working
hours to his credit. The joys of plow-

IS SAFE
Supreme Court Overrides Gov.
Capper's Order.
Makes Drainage Board Re-
straining Order Permanent.

The supreme court today made per-
manent the restraining order against
the Kaw Valley Drainage board of
Kansas City, enjoining them from in
terfering with the Missouri Pacific
railway bridge over the Kaw river
pending result of litigation. Argu-
ments in the case were submitted
Wednesday and the court today made
permanent a temporary restraining
order against the board.
Recently the board served notice on
the railroad that it must within three
days remove certain alleged bridge
distractions. This notice followed the
sending of a telegram by Governor
Capper placing the drainage board In
charge of the Kansas City Southern
bridge. This authority carried power
to blow up the railway bridge in event
of flood difficulties. Consequently,
when the demand to remove obstruc-
tions was sent to the Missouri Pa
cific, they sought relief in the courts.
The restraining order today will re-
main in force pending final decision
in litigation regarding the railroads

GREATEST SKY BATTLES
SOON To SHOCK WORLD

London, June 17.-Sky battles on
a scale the world has never dream
ed of will lend a thrill to the Euro
pean war spectacle before many
weeks.
Within the past six months aero
plane factories here and in the
United States have been turning out
scores of biplanes designed to give
England supremacy in the skies.
Publication of this fact was not per-
mitted until the formal announce
ment from the war office I'm the
house of commons yesterday. 1t
was learned today that the British
air fleet now comprises $500 BIZ
planes and monOplanes and about
so dirigibies equipped for bomb
hurting raids.
To challenge Great Britain's su-
periority i'm the sky, German aero
plane and dirigibIe factories have
been working overtime since last
September. ZeppeIins have been
turned out as rapidly as they could
be manufactured, but the Germany
admiralty, according TO reports re-
ceived here, has placed less reliance
ON aeropIancs for battle purposes
and now has less than 1000 Taubes
to meet the English attacks in the
air. Many of these are in use along
the Russian front for scouting pur-
poses
Great Britain's fleet of $500
aeropianes and dirigibles was as
partly for offensive action.
