REV. BACON is
AT CONVENTION
Disciples Of Christ Holding Inter
national Meeting In Kansas
City This
Week.

The international convention of
the Disciples of Christ is now in ses.
sion at Kansas City. 1t is one of
the greatest gatherings in their his
tory, because of work reported and
planned, and the evident unity of
purpose. Two of the most outstand-
ing actions of the convention thus
far are the unanimous adoption of a
new constitution which promises to
make closer cooperation among all
the churches and their agencies pos
sible; and the adoption of a pension
system for ministers and mission
aries similar to the plan ,being
adopted by many other religious
bodies.
The reports of the eleven organi-
cations participating in the conven-
ton reveal aggressive work done.
and in almost every instance, unusual
achievement even in the face of war
conditions.
Representatives from all parts of
the world are in attendance Among
prominent end great men to address
the convention are: S. G. Inman.

of Churches of Christ Working in

Down below at this particular juno

I met Keokuk, Iowa, boy peeling
potatoes for supper at the entrance
to a dugout near the front line; a
south side Chicagoan grinding hash
nearby.
Then we went forward to trav-
erse. There was a silent, shlVerlng
group of boys, their rifles peeping
downward from below their ponchoes.
They were stopped in the trench,
waiting their turn in No Mans Land
as their patrol shoes oozed Ice water
and melting snow dripped from the
brims of their "tin helmet as the
shrapnel helmets are known IN
trench nomenclature.
The sergeant commanding the
patrol-a native of ST. Louis-spoke:
'sThis war isn't so damned bad.
The weather's my chief complaint"
Boche shells were bursting on
hill half a mile away. Sammies
eyes peered over the top of the para.

snow blocked their. vision.

In his trenches sammy acts as

American forces is excellent. Feed
ing is dif1cult-but the food is of the
best. Just like the Canadians the
sammies require restraint TO prevent
them from attacking 1t looks SO
easy and the waiting is SO monoton-
Gus that they want to be up and at
'em.

White Ways Must Go.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 80. = The
great white ways Of American cities
will soon be darkened. By an order
TO be issued next week at the fuel
administration here all unnecessary
outdoor Lighting will be discontinued
during the war to save fuel. Slmui-
taneously, appeal will be made to vol
unfairly curtail indoor lighting.
Under the Garfield mandate out
door electric advertising signs will
be greatly restricted, If not entirely
extinguished. Ornamental white
ways" will be allowed to continue
only when absolutely necessary to
street light.
The amount of coal wasted in
electric advertising signs is estimat-
ed at only 100000 tons annually. Ac-
cording to P. B. Moves, fuel con-
servation director under Garfield. the
fuel administration will order this
saving for the psychological effect
upon the public"
Suppose there is a water shortage
in a city" he said, land The people
are asked TO conserve water. If they
should see a public fountain wasting
water, the people would Immediately
feel that their efforts are not neces-
sary if the fountain is permitted to
continue in operation. We are going
to ask the people to save coal. And
if they see electric advertisements
wasting the fuel, they will not re-
spond to our appeal"
Noyes stated that the Broadway
Association OF New York in controll-
ing the gayest white way in the
world has agreed to cut out all the
famous signs on Broadway if neces-
sary.
State fuel administrators and local
fuel committees will have power to
limit ordinary street lighting in
cities.
A voluntary fuel conservation cam
paign which will reach into every
house in the country was launched
today with this appea, from Moves:
Coal supplies power for electricity
and steam heat. Householders should
turn off both when you don't need
them. If you can get wood. use il
instead Of coal"

A PRAYER.

When the stranger asks home,
All his tolls TO end;
When the hungry craveth food,
And the poor friend;
When the sailor on the wave
Bows the fervent knee;
When the soldier on the field
Lifts his heart to Thee:
Hear then in love, 0 Lord, the cry
In heaven, they dwelling place on
high
