WANT PASTORS TO
BEGIN ON CANVASS
SECRETARY OF WESLEYAN CAM
PAIoN COMMITTEE SENDS
OUT LETTERS TO MEN.

In an effort to get the pastors to
begin on the campaign work the secre-
tary of the Iowa Wesleyan endowment
movement has sent the following let
ter to every pastor in the Iowa confer
ence:
1--WE are trying to get into every
pastoral charge In the Ottumwa dis
trict just as fast as we can to begin
the canvass for 100000 endowment
for Iowa Wesleyan college, In the
interest Of publicity we suggest the
following plan.
II. That every pastoral charge
maintain suitable place known as
headquarters for that particular
charge. Make this place known by an
nouncement from the pulpit and press,
so that the people may feel free to
progress of the campaign.
%. At the various headquarters q
blackboard should be placed In =
conspicuous position, upon which the
individual subscriptions from the
charge and the various districts should
be recorded daily
SO. That central headquarters for
the Ottumwa district be maintained in
Ottumwa, where record OF the
charges will be kept and changed daily
as the canvass proceeds. Records of
the four districts and the conference
will also be complied.
-. Every chairman will be furnish
ed with printed postal cards forms to
report their charges as the subscrip-
lions come in from time to time.
"5 Let me suggest that we pray
very earnestly for Gods guidance;
that no plans be made or no work be-
gun until we have waited while in
prayer for the guidance of the Holy
Spirit.
"Then will God bless US in giving
and in labor and we will come to vic
tory with great rejoicing. There will
be a tremendous spiritual uplift for
the entire conference

Grain Review

Chicago, March 22.-Fears of late
spring in the northwest and of de-
layed movement there had bullish eff
feet today on wheat. Peace talk, how
ever, acted later as something Of an off
set The opening here, which varied
from u to A@%c higher, with May at
$1.09A to $109& and July at $1.0SA to
$1.0S9s, was followed by slight furth-
err advance and then material reac-
ton.
Unfavorable crop reports from the
far southwest and the soft winter wheat
states prevented for time any decline
under last nights level but finally the
market turned downgrade, influenced
by continued gossip as to peace. The
close was unsettled, A@ss to NO Nc
net lower, with May at $1.0S1s @1.0S9s
and July at $107h.
Corn weakened owing to lack of sup
port. After opening " to n a Sc high
err, the market sagged to below yester-
days finish.
Increasing supplies and the smallness
of eastern demand led afterward to an
additional setback. The close was weak
at ! IL to IL 01ssc net decline.
Oats PARALLEL the changes in corn.
Steadiness characterized provisions.

MEETS A VICTIM OF THE
"PAssING ON" SYSTEM.

The Wapello County Associated
Charities ONCE had another example
Of the passing on system brought to
its attention Tuesday afternoon. It
acted in accord with it's own policy
in the handling Of such cases.
M H. Carter. aged so years, came
here from Abba. Somebody there
gave him a ticket to Ottumwa. He
wanted one from here to Fairfield
and there he hoped to get another to
Burlington and so on until he reached
West Frankfort, ILL.,, where a son lives.
A telegram was sent to the son and
he Immediately answered with money
for his fathers transportation there.
When he found out he had chance
to 60 the old man was not so anxious
and said he would like to use the mon
ey in going to Lucas, Danville, ILL.,,
and several other places.
However, he was put on the train
here this morning with a through tick.
ct for West Frankfort, which place
he Is scheduled to reach Thursday

Editor Courier: In a recent article In
The Courier, the superintendent, Rev
U. B. Smith, called attention to the
work of the American Home Finding
association: not only in it's general
character. but also to the work that
had been done and the amount OF mon
ey that had been saved to the tax pay
ers of Wapello county through the as
ISOLATION.
The superintendent was entirely too
modest or had made miscalculation
as to the amount. The amount stated
was exactly right on the basis OF
seventy-two dollars annually for each
child sent to the orphans home AT Dav.
export, but the official record for Iowa
states that an apportionment of twelve
collars per month is made for each
aid making $144 annually.
Six dollars of this amount per month
Is assessed directly to the county, but
the other six is paid indirectly In state
tax so that the amount actually saved
the tax payers of Wapello county and
the state was more than double what
was stated, or 1921
In addition to this transportation
both ways must be paid for each child
making quite an additional amount.
When 1t Is considered that children
placed in families are much more fav.
orably situated for their development
than could be possible in any institu-
ton something of the value of the
home to Wapello county may be esti'
mated. In the last two months have
personally called or made careful in.
quiry over the territory where have
travelled and without single exception
(Which consider remarkably l have
found the children doing well and
many of them in some of the best
homes in Iowa.
Not only is this true of the American
association, but it Is becoming increas-
ingly apparent that the only way to
deal with the child problem is to place
them in carefully selected homes.
Governor Capper OF Kansas In re-
cent message to the board OF control
OF Kansas recommended that the chill
dren in state homes Of that state be
placed as quickly as possible in fam
lilies.
In a recent conversation with the
writer, Eugene Chafin, twice presiden-
tial candidate on the Prohibition
ticket and we'll known as a statesman
and public speaker, said II he had
the authority he would abolish all the
orphanages and turn the children over
to the Home Finding associations as
It was the best way to deal with the
child problem.
