PREPAREDNESS IS
THE DUTY OF Us ALL
Bishop Williams Tells of the
Features of Episcopal Con-
ference at St. Louis.
CLASSES IN RELIGION

Important steps toward the de-
velopment of better citizenship were
taken at the general convention OF
the Protestant Episcopal church.
which concluded its sessions on last
Saturday, according to Bishop Arthur
L. Williams, who has returned to
Omaha after a three-weeks' visit to
St. Louis, in attendance on the con-
vention. :.
"Americanism in its finest aspects
he said, was the principal subject
= of the pastoral letter OF the house
of bishops, read by Bishop Brent Of
the Philippines at the final session
of the convention. This message,
which later will be read from all
the pulpits of the faith, stated our
belief that preparedness is a duty
but that it will fall short Of its de-
sired effect unless all the produc-
tive forces of manhood are shaped
into social order and righteousness
and there is preparedness OF char
\ .acter.'
N This preparedness of character is
Involved in the plan of religious edu-
cation prepared by the commission on
yreligious education as a result OF
fnine years study. Based on the most
modern pedagogical methods, this sys-
tenn of education looks to the develop
ment in the church of the best pos
sible type of citizen, through the
proper inculcation of spiritual truths. y
Perhaps the most inspiring features
of the convention, the Nebraska prel-
ate declared, were in the joint sessions
of the two houses in their considera-
ton of this subject. Some of the
finest addresses | have ever heard in
my life," he stated, "were given in
the discussion of this topic"
Modern Education.
AS president of the board of trus-
tees Of Brownell Hall, the local school
for girls, Bishop Williams has for
years been in closest touch with
modern educational problems. He
feels that great progress has been
made by the church in its application
of pedagogical science to the teach
ing of religious truths.
1.-THE church's plan Of education,
he stated, "comprehends classes for
adults, as well as instructions tor
children of all ages. This work fol
adults was initiated in Omaha last
year, and 10 men and women were
registered for instruction. Courses
are conducted by faculty consist
ing of FIVE clergymen, with examina'
tons and tests such as would be Civ
en- in a curriculum of a secular ma
ture. Already this year, understand
there have been enrolled as many
students as were in attendance during
the whole of last year"
Miss Euphemia Johnson, principa
of Brownell Hall, was also in at
tendance on the general convention
and was among the interested listen
ers at the sessions conducted by the
commission on religious education.

HATTERS' FUND
 IN BRIDGEPORT
 EXCEEDS $5,OOO
Remington Arms Machin- ists Pledge Donation of
 More Than $500.

More than 1000 will be donated by Bridgeport union men to the relief of the Danbury matters, according to what are said by union leaders here to be conservative estimates.
 A canvass of unions indicates that thousands of dollars have already been and will be contributed before the end of the week.
 Those who are working piece work give the proceeds of the second hour s labor yesterday. Day workers have and will make flat contributions of 50 and 50 cents.
 Nearly all the unions have held meetings on the matter, and the mem bers agred to assist the struggling matters As a result, they ratified as sessments of 50 and 60 cents or the proceeds of the hours pay. kN
 The union machinists of the Rem ington Arms 6 Ammunition Go. have just received sanction for a local of their own. They will branch out from Local No. 30 and will form a larger one. They alone have pledged an amount that undoubtedly will exceed $500 and will be nearer $1, ,000, prob ably! The original local, with its Iembers other than Remington em- ployes, will give at least $500 The musical union men, $2O0, the printers, $1o0, the painters, $20O. The plumbers, who. have almost tripled their mem bership, probably will raise about $250. The number of corset workers in the city exceeds 1000 and is less than 2,000t according to estimates. Contri- buttons from these and from the many other unions in the city will bring the total far past s5,Oo0, it is thought.
 More than ,000 has already been sent out of the city for this purpose There are 35 unions in the city, and the majority of the members were benefited by the union principles last summer.
 According to union men, it isn't possible to estimate the number of
 members the organizations have in Bridgeport. They know it exceeds 10000, but are not sure if it reaches I 5000. With 10000 only contribut- ing, together with Bridgeport train men railway cIerksI freight handlers and others not affiliated with the Cen traI Labor union, the contributors are expected to be great.
 The second hours pay was selected by tho piece workers because they know they earn more in that hour than in any other during the day This, it is believed, is caused by cir cumstances that make them generally 1 slow in the first hour. They may come to work late, get started late, or take time to ''get warmed up'' or Unit theil stride" and the second hour, if de voted to making up the resulting de- fciency, besides turning out the sec ond hours natural quota
 | Organized labor throughout the United States yesterday was expected 1 to do the same as Bridgeport. The homes of the matters of Danbury arc about to be sold under the hammer

mills.
 City Auditor Keating points out in his preliminary report. however, that even with this great increase in the grand list a tax rate of POT mills will be required to meet the city's needs It was predicted by some property owners at city hall today that many of the items which City Auditor Keat- ing has cut from the list will be al- lowed by the board of apportionment and recon1mended by the advisory board and therefore the tax rate is likely to be more than 20.7 mills.
 The stream of property owners who came to see why their assessments had been raised continued unabated this afternoon.
 s'It's an outrage" declared one man who owns two houses on which the assessment has been increased $1,00O. 'tYou ought to give them h-l in the papers tonight"
 This general increase in property valuations will be probably followed by a general increase in rents all over the city and especially rents for dwelling houses. Such rents are al- ready at war time'' prices Nbut a further increase seems inevitable to some of the landlords.

 Judge Braley,s in allowing two amendments to this effect which were filed recently by minority interests. allowed the respondents 30 days in which to demur or plead.
 Counsel for the respondents said in court that they probably would denaur to the amendments, as they had to the original bill. The demurrer against the bill was sustained by the full bench on the ground that the bill did not set forth a sufficient cause for ac- tionf
