DAILY VACATION
BIBLE SCHOOLS
Branch to Be Opened At Diets Mem.
orial Church in Omaha on
July 10.
SOCIAL AND RELIGIOUS WORK

4
The Daily Vacation Bible school
opening July 10 and held at the Dietz
Memorial church, will be under the
auspices Of the Women's Missionary
federation and cooperating com.
rilittee from the Church federation Of
the city.
The field is social, religious and
educational. For over two months
In summer, school supervision is with
drawn from 100000 school chill,
dren. For many OF these the vacation
Is q happy time. but for more it !.
q time Of decentralization and dan.
ger. Wage-earners, busy all day, can.
not give their children needed care
This is especially, true in fifty Of
the largest cities in the country. In
these, after existing agencies fol
child welfare have done their best
there are still upward OF 10000
boys and girls who spend sixty-two
vacation days on the street exposed
to physical and moral danger, un.
touehed ~ any organized philan,
thropy, tits maintained that church
buildings accessible to these children
should be equipped as daily welfare
centers.
Many, Not Enrolled.
Religion. training is not allowed
in the public schools, and out Of the
population between 8 and Is years q
age, at least 100000 are not en-.
rolled in any Sunday school. The
summer vacation is the greatest op,
portunity Of the year for the churche.
to supply this need in the Daily Va.
cation Bible school.
The functions of these schools are
the promotion Of the social welfare
Of children irrespective OF race OF
creed by giving them competent lead
ers and teachers, suitable and happy
occupations, systematic oversight Of
games, good songs, and, above all
to combine with this program reli.
gious training and practical Bibk
teaching.
Non-Seetarian Lines.
This school supplements the work
Of the National Playground associa.
ton, without duplicating the work, by
promoting the community use OF
church buildings on broad non-secta.
rian lines for child welfare.
/ The employment OF alert college
men and women inspired with the
spirit of social service and fitted to
be efficient leaders of children in wor.
ship, work and play, is realizing eco
nomic value Of millions spent Ii the
education Of the youth and giving
valuable experience to many who
would otherwise spend an idle va.
cation.
In Larger cities.
These schools are established in
about fifty Of the leading cities OF
the United States and Canada, and
cooperating with all Of the leading
universities and colleges. The growth
in attendance since 1907 has been
5,083 children to 73,058 In 1915, which
attests to the popularity OF the
schools with the children themselves,
The results have been definite and
satisfactory, warranting the forma-
ton of the National Daily Vacation
Bible School association, with which
the local organization Of Omaha is in
cooperation. The data given is

for Stock.
WATER TRAFFIC TO FLOURISH

That regular loading dock will be
erected in the vicinity of the Douglas

can not only be unloaded easily from
river boats, but can be driven direct
through single driveways to railroad
docks and thence into stock cars
which will be moved to the South
Side.
