MOTHER STARVES

Deserted Wife Dies from
Hunger-Used Food to
Save Children.

Six weeks ago Mrs. Margaret Runte
was about az happy as mother could
be with three children and husband
who drank. Tiet.e Runte made 80 a
day as a carpenter. What he didn't
spend he contributed to grocer and
butcher. But there we're many times,
Bor weeks on end, that he didn't have
enough left to settle with either.
Three times his wife had him ar
rested for non-support. Each time she
pleaded with the magistrate TO free
him. The third time, dismissed with a
lecture, Tietje left the city. He sent
postcard to his wife saying he was on
his way South and would never see her
again

comfy.
Stated in general terms the recon-
mendations of the Panama gathering
to the churches of the Americas were
four:
!. There should be a merging of the
christian press at work in behalf of
Latin America. The various denomi-
national publishing houses cooperate
in the issuance of text books, periodi-
calls and general Christian literature.
The people of Latin America care
only for the essentials which all COM
munions hold in common, so the du-
plication of literature because of sec
tarianism is needless.

Some Sidclights
The businesslike way in which the
conference was handled by Robert E.
Speer Of New York, the general chair
man. is subject of general remark.
He had the help of John r.. Mott,
chairman of the Edinburg Missionary
Conference. All the speakers
the discussions were
limited to seven minutes each
This meant that at every session
there were from fifteen to twenty-five
speakers, and the sessions numbered
three a day for ten days. There were
some stated, formal addresses of
greater length.
The delegates spent about seven
hours n day in solid consideration of
Great maps of all the South Amer
ican countries, with all the mission
stations marked, were before the dele
gates during the discussions The
mass of information that had been
gathered was really astounding. A
complete religious survey of each of
the countries involved had been made
in advance.

mel of the Conference. The cream
of the Christian leadership of the two
Americas was skinned for the occa-
sion. The significance of this lies not
only in the quality of the conference
sessions, but also in the power of those
present to impress the message upon
The church in the months to come.
