cities, caused one death in New
Orleans Tuesday night. Two
suspected cases are undr observa

State and city health board offic-
lals have no fear of an epidemic
but do insist that precautions
should be taken by parents. DR..
IIO'Reilly, of the city board, states
since 1911 there have been but 46
known cases here and two deaths
Pora Parker, 6 year-old negro
girl, died at sos o'clock Tuesday
night in Charity Hospital, having
been admitted there July 9, Vir-
ginia Menninger. 19 months old
white, of 1923 Banks street, is
now in the contagious ward of
the hospital afflicted with the
same disease. She was admitted
July 6 and physicians believe she
has a chance to recover. The
third case is that of a 15-month-
old child with infantile paralysis
at 2611 D'Abadie street. Hope is
entertained that this one will re-
cover also.
Parents of the little negro girl
who died from the disease Tues
day are not known. She was taken
to the hospital in a city wagon,
the driver stating he had taken
her from a train and her home
was in "Arbath," La. No such
town is known. The board of
health requires that bodies of per
sons dying from the desease be
buried without delay so the hospi |

Sunday. the first day of October,
was marked by the first general rain
storm for several months. The dust
had become very deep on the thoro-

make the roads passable with the
heavy loads of beets and potatoes
that were just beginning to move.
The wheat hauling had been heaVy
for some time, and while the season
was favorable to harvesting hay ana
grain, the soaking rain was generaly
considered relief.
Few seasons have been so favorable
for getting hay put up without dam

Children's Day will be appropriate
ly observed with a program by the
children of the Sunday school. The
children have an important place in
our church life. The church is al
ways friend to the children. No
other Institution has done so much
for child welfare. Jesus was the first
great teacher of men who showed II
real sympathy for childhood. Where
ever the gospel is preached the child
is brought more and more into its
rightful sphere Of life.
The General Conference which met
in Saratoga Springs during the entire
month of May was in some respects
the most important session in the his
tory Of thechurch. Over eight hum
dred choice men Of the church COM
posed the Conference. There were
men in the body of national and in
ternational reputation from almost
every honest and honorable walk of
life. The church's attitude towards
the important questions Of the day is
clearly set forth. Seven Bishops were
elected. 1t is believed that the Meth
odist Episcopal Church, South and
the Methodist Episcopal Church and
| the Methodist Protestant Church will,
in the course of a very few years, be
united in one great Methodism. The
time is reckoned at from two to four
years. This would make church of
about seven million members with a
constituency of perhaps TWEEN ty mil.

CHURCHES.
From the Church News.
Christian Church.

| Niil lSNloli NllAl I'll.
When the revival IS past and the
evangelist is gone is no time for the
Church to draw big breath OF rcliet
and rclaN It's efforts. II is Just the
time for both pastor and people 10
work together harder than ever To
| hold the new members, especially the
children. and get them settled to work
in the activities of Christian service.
What sort OF influence does II have
on rhe children who appear in the
church for the first time as members
and find that their elders and leaders
have taken the opportunity to 20 vis-
iting or lndulging in some other form
of absence from the service?
1t is sad reflection on the Older
members Of the church that after all
that has been said during the meet
ings regarding the nature of modern
Christian work that the old barren
individualism should manifest itself
again in each following his own incli-
nations and neglecting that solidarity
of cooperative work without which 10
church can prosper or hold its proper
place in the life Of the community.
1t is not enough to stand pat.
Church members must stand together.
Cooperation is the key TO success in
church work. 1t is idle to wish for
better tools. Those that We have will
build Gods templei If We will use them
heartily and quit all signing for the
unattainable and knocking on the
means we have. ~ '.
The Christian Church has now the
greatest opportunity for successful
and permanent good that it has en-.
joyed for many years. There is set
before it an open door. Its future
success depends on the wisdom and
faithfulness Of its membership.
In the competition of denomina-
tions the fitteSt will survive.
No claim to superior knowledge OF
closer conformity to primitive Chris.
tianity will avail one jot if there be
neglect of that plain condition of mod.
ern church life-social service.
1t is what We contribute TO the
genuinely religious life of Harrison
that counts with God and the public.
Every faithful worker, and there are
no more faithful workers than some Of
our people, will appreciate the pert.
nency Of these truths. 1t is to be
hoped that sllwill perceive their force
fulness and fall cheerfully into the
ranks for organized service.
The Harrison times., 1916-06-03
