WAR RELIEF WORK
Mr.. Mills Urges That This opportuni-
ty Be Taken.


Editor of The Banner There is
an opportunity which the people in
the churches next Sunday ought not
to lose. II is to make some gift to
the War Relief Funds.
We have had at intervals in our
churches special offerings for one
and another OF these Funds, and they
have been creditable In amounts. But
we must keep on giving 1t is our i'm
perative Christian duty TO do this,
Many Of us are receiving literature
from the various headquarters of the
War Relief Organizations. It is heart
wringing beyond words. We simply
cannot turn a deaf ear 10 these APP
peals.
We have great abundance here in
Bennington. Our merchants tell us
the Christmas trade was never better
We are generous in remembering our
own. But God forbid we should pass
by the sufferers in Europe!
Several earnest people have asked
me within the last few days-"Shall
we give through the church," And
my answer is, Give in any way"
But it is convenient to give through
the church. and every church i am
sure. keeping the record of these
gifts. would be properly gratiied to
realize that It's members were doing
their part, that as church it was
not indifferent to these moving calls
for help.
The church treasurer of the Second
Congregational church. for example,
has all the addresses of the War Re
lief Funds. 1t is simple matter to
enclose your gift in an envelope,
mark it War Relief" and if you
especially wish, designate it for
particular Fund-as. Albania, Bel
gium, Poland. Servia, Armenia and
Syria, Permanent Blind, Red Cross,
Starving Children OF Europe, or any
other Fund, and place it on the
church collection plate.
Shall we not this next Sunday. hav-
ing planned our Christmas gifts, give
this one gift more for the sake of our
pitiful common humanity and the love
of the Christ?
George s. Mills.

Hush, Hush, see how He smiles
in his dreams.
