Church and Country

THE earth is the Lords, not the landlords, :"
said speaker at the national church and coun-
try life conference held recently in Columbus,
Ohio. He might have added that if owners
would stay on their farms, it would be Gods
Country"
No rural activity should be outside the field
of the country church, the Federal Council of
Churches decided at the church and country life
conference held recently in Columbus, Ohio.
Then we foresee profitable exchange OF minis
ter's frock coats for overalls.
Seven hundred ministers and agriculturalists
meeting in Columbus, Ohio, in December, agreed
that country churches must take on new eco
nomic and social interests to save themselves
and to vitalize their communities We are glad
for plentiful sprinkling of hard-headed pro-
gressive farmers in this movement, to avoid any
possible danger of the advancement of unwork-
able theories
Not religious alone, nor social alone, nor
economic alone but perfect merger Of the three,
is the ideal which leaders in the new church and
country life movement apparently hold, judging
by their action at the recent conference in Colu.
bus, Ohio. There seems to be some difference OF
opinion among churchmen and agricuNuralists
over which should be dominant. :.

Aggressive Campaign Planned

Forming Committees

Washington, ID. c., May 10. - Feel
ing certain that Republican harmony
will result from the convention to be
held in Chicago in June, the leaders
of the party in Washington are pre-
pairing for an aggressive campaign for
the recovery not merely of the Presi-
dency, but of the Senate and House.
The preparations that are being
made are on a scale to surpass even
the memorable campaign of 1896.
Plans are being formulated for the
expansion of committees, creation of
additional committees and the
elaboration of the entire campaign
organization.
As one new feature it is proposed
that a special committee shall be
created, composed of members of the
National Committee. and Senators,

the Republicans hope to win.

The goat is a great aid in keeping
