lose its original ardor. the task is just
as big as ever.
Sixty thousand tons of food have to
be sent every month and over 1.5OO, 600
people fed who have no means to pas
for anything. This means a minimum
Of $3.OOO,O0O a month to be raised, and
it Is not expected the commissions
present funds can last much longer.
In one respect the work will be much
easier than it was last year. The or
ganization Of the commission is CON-
plete and well nigh perfect. Its CON-
mittee has become accustomed to
smooth and harmonious cooperation.
and it's agents have been established
in every center Ct distribution. The
problem thus is merely that Of getting
the food instead of getting 1t and then
getting 1t to the people Of Belgium.
The diplomatic obstacles which made
the early work particularly arduOus
also do not now exist. All Of the bel
ligerent nations have recognized the
commission as the medium to supply
food to noncombatants and have
agreed not to modest its shipments. As
Bates put 1t. the commission has be-
come established as an Emporium i'm

But there have been many births in
Belgium, and. although many adults
doubtless have died. baby Is some
what more difficult to feed than his ia
Their.
The people of Belgium who are able
to pay for food Of course have not
been receiving gratis their supplies
from the commission. There are about
$4,000 of these. AS there is little
other food for sale in Belgium. they
have to buy their supplies from the
commission. They each have had to
procure them ticket emitting them
tc buy only a certain amount-precise-
ly the same as that given to those who
have no money.
The amount is about ten ounces Of
bread and dried beans and rice and
prunes. and others basic foods day.
1t is about one-third Of soldiers ri

average American eats. 1t costs. for
each member Of the bread line.
about So a month.
In spite Of the small amount and the
even smaller cost. however, 1t has sur

Of Belgium. but to keep them well and

MORE LIVESTOCK LISTED

Though Total Valuations Decrease,
Returns Show Advance in

Notwithstanding the. fact that most
county assessors this year reduced
their total valuations, their returns
to the state board Of equalization in
dictate 4 material advance In the
wealth Of the state.
Particularly il this true In the live
stock industry, for in the last year
the total number OF cattle listed In
the state has increased from S55,127
to 414,604, sheep and goats have
grown from 440,7S9 to 4S1.450 and
hogs from 157.337 to 1929. In
spite Of the ascendancy OF the auto
mobile the total number Of horses Ia
the state has increased from 256,876
in 1914 to 261.723 this year.
The number Of automobiles listed
by the assessors March this year
was 21.713, as compared with 1929
on March /. 1914, but the number Of
automobiles licensed under the new
motor code now has passed the $4,000
mark. The number Of pianos, sew
ing machines and other classes Of
property capable OF being listed nu-
merically. also show marked in
creases.
On the other hand the item stock
and fixtures Of sample rooms and
saloons shows only about half a.
much property listed under it as was
the case one year ago.

DR.. ]. P. Howard, the hero OF many

eelists of the West, will arrive IN the
city today and will fill the pulpit
morning and evening tomorrow he
comes to us directly from st. Louis
Mo-. where he conducted two rev1vals
in which upward of 300 persons were
taken into the church. Our spring re-
yiyal begins to morrow and II ls
hoped that the coming to us OF TINS
man of God will be the means OF
great spiritual. awakening in Denver.
He needs no introduction to the peo-
nle of this city, for his former cam
naiens here are his best recommends
tion. Preaching service will be heio
every evening and we invite our SIS
ter churches to join us.
Our Easter service this year, as pre-
d;cted. was a record,breaker Ine
services during the day were OF a
high order and eliminated in one OF
the most brilliant and inspiring musi-
col renditions that We have witnessed.
Large audiences f1ocked to the church
throughout the day and at evening
notwithstanding a silver offering was
taken at the door. A number OF per
cons we're turned away for lack OF
accommodation.
Our choir, under the direction OF
Miss Jennie. NJ. Hicks. through the
rendition Of the cantata, Gross and
Crown" placed upon the public debt
of gratitude which will not be easy
to discharge. The verdict of the pub
lie is that our choir triumphed glori'
ously.
Our Easter rally has been extended
to Sunday, April 18th, at which time
all members who did not meet their
obligation Sunday are requested to
nav their assessments in full.
The passing of Miss Ruth Fife took
from us a most beautiful character
whose place will be hard to fill. Hei
funeral was held from the churcr
Monday afternoon. Our sympathy
goes out to loved ones.
