'ber-Present-Day" An effort should
be made to have every enrolled MEM
Der present on this day.
Sunday, April 1-"Every Member
Bring One Day." This is not for the
purpose of counting noses, but to Sc
cure bona fide members for the
school.
Easter Sunday, April 8th-"For-
ward-Step Day" This is to be the
climax of the campaign and on this
day those who have been definitely
brought to Christ are to publicly de-
clare the fact; church membership
may be stressed, and above all, each
member is to be urged to take for
ward step in some form of definite

service are suggested, among these
may be mentioned the following: The

the effect that the Thornwell Or

we'll Orphanage at Greenwood, and
the Epworth Orphanage at Columbia,
will ask all the friends in their va
rious constituencies to observe Sat-

simple and has been tried for sever

contribution to the orphan boys and

appeal to many of our people.

Committee, is being referred to a!
containing some mighty good rea
sons for prohibition in the Capitol.
Report No. 1902. mir. johnson
of Kentucky, from the Committee
on the District of Columbia, submit
ted the following:
For many years the Federal
Government has been subsidiz-
ing the liquor traffic in the Dis
trict Of Columbia to the extent
of nearly a half million dollars
annually. Congress has power
over the granting OF all licenses
relative to the sale of liquors
in the District. For each Ii
cense to sell liquor in the Dis
trct of Columbia the District
receives the sum of $1,000,
while the Federal Government
receives the sum of S25. The
$1,000 received by the District
of Columbia is treated by the
District as revenue. against
which the Federal Government
is compelled, under existing
law, to put up an additional
$1,000. Therefore the Federal
Government is penalized to the
extent of 1876 annually on ev-
cry liquor license granted in
the District of Columbia.
During the last 10 years the
District of Columbia has col
lected from liquor licenses the
sum of S4,604,S62.7O, which
has been treated by the District
as a revenue. To match which
the Federal Government has
put up an equal sum.
THE s4,604,S62.70 which
the Federal Government dur
ing the last 10 years has paid
out of the Public Treasury be-
longed to all the people of the
United States, millions of whom
are opposed to having a tax
placed upon what they eat and
wear in order to lend induce
ment to the District of Column
bia to increase the number of
barrooms in the Nations Cap
