that dentists who volunteer their

UNITE FOR CRISIS.
EPISCOPAL PLEA

PHILADELPHIA May IA plea
for unity during the nations war cri-
sis was made today by Bishop Rhine
lander at the opening session here to-
day OF the one hundred and thirty
third annual convention of the Prot
estant Episcopal diocese. He urged
a revival OF discipline In church and
state
The chief danger threatening de-
mocracy as this war has clearly
shown" he said. lis that democracy
has come TO be associated more with
protection OF private rights than the
discharge OF public duties
1T has often been said democracy
tends to stifie patriotism. There are
signs which point that way. II il be
so. IL is only because those living un-
der democratic government have be-
lied their citizenship by their selfish
lust OF power. greed or gain. because
they have never recognized their
claim on them and never by word or
deed acknowledged or DISCHARGED IT,
discipline. the learning OF obedi-
ence. is the only sure and certain
route from which unselnsh and de
voted patriotism will spring."
Simplicity Of living was urged by
the bishop. The convention adopted
the following resolution:
THAT during the term OF the war.
we as members OF the convention of
the diocese pledge ourselves to sim
plicity Of life and corporation with
the government"
