ABOUT It's Members.

The Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton Of New York has inaugurated a
"Join the Church Campaign" which
will eliminate at Easter Day. II plans
20 help its members find their way TO
the churches. and the churches their
way 20 the men.
The East Side branch has issued this
appeal, docs joining d church help a
man." An emphatic Yes" is our re-
ply. A faulty church member would
be a much worse man outside the
church. a good, moral man who is not
a church member would be q much bet
ter man inside the church. The gain
is always relative Think this over:
"First-Has the church her faults
Come inside and help US correct them.
Second Does she harbor hypo-
critics? Societies of perfect people are
impossible on earth. The call TO mem
bership is personal: what is that 20
thee? Follow thou me-
Third You can be just as good
outside? Others Will not agree with
you on this. The man who appraises
himself usually favors himself Jesus
Christ. who founded the Church. made
personal confession and allegiance the
basis Of its permanence. This should
help you deode.

paper under the Mutual Welfare
Leagues auspices in Sing Sing three
months ago. Hereafter THE Star Of

Tho possibility OF cnriching our
oitys life by 4 virile teaching OF the
inner lesson Of these two great relig-
ions was never moro evident. The
psychology Of the hour, felt and known
by all who are able 20 be impressed
by the reactions Of the world crisis
and corresponding spiritual hunger
by ell peoples make the coming. OF
Palm Sunday and the Jewish and Cen
tile calendars Of the week which iol-
lows peculiarly significant.
Palm Sunday Signifies Victory.
Palm Sunday as practised by the
Christian Church signifies a victory
sought and won. The meaning Of the
Feast Of the Passover as practised by
the Hebrews since the Exodus has the
same import to the Jewish life, since
il is an annual reminder of their re-
lease from bondage in Egypt.
Palm Sunday TO the Christian IL the
last Sunday in Lent and the beginning
OF Passion Week, wherein the adher-
ents of the Christian Church, regard
less Of sect and the differences be-
tween Protestant and Roman Catholic,
commemorate day by day the passing
of the last week and the Passion Of
Jesus of Nazareth. The date Of the
beginning of the custom of using palm
branches and the celebration Of the
entrance of Christ into Jerusalem, as
described in the twelfth chapter of the
Gospel Of ST. John, was somewhere in
the fourth century. The palm branches
used to celebrate this day are kept by
the members of some branches Of the
Church and burned. The ashes are
used in celebrating Ash Wednesday
the following year.
The Feast of the Passover, which is
the beginning Of spring. usually falls
On the 18th day of Nissan, which CORE
spends this year TO the 18th Of April.
The Jews celebrate this feast, which.
as Easter is TO the Gentiles. is the
greatest feast OF the year. according
to the Biblical ordinances proclaimed in
the Old Testament. With some 1t IS
observed for seven days. and with
others who practise pOst-Biblical Gus
toms an eighth day is added. The re
formed synagogues of New York will
observe the first and seventh days.

After inspecting the defenses here
today the commander OF the eastern

the present guns should be replaced
by the latest models with longer
range. The improvements ne sug-
gested would cost several hundred
thousand dollars. The reason given
for the change was that the in
creased efficiency and range of the
