SEES GOOD RESULTS
FROM D. G. GARDENS
Two Thousand Planted Will Set
Record, Governments Ex-
pert Believes.

There are more than two thousand
gardens in Washington and they are
going to produce, under favorable
weather conditions, better results this
year than Washington gardens have
produced In, several decades.
This is the opinion Of H. NJ Conolly.
Department Of Agriculture agent, who
has been assigned TO direct garden ao-
ttTities In the District, following q
which he gave thirty-fivS lessons in ~
many different sections Of the city.
Gardeners Are Determined.
"I have had between eight hundred
and a thousand gardeners attending the
demonstration instructions have given
during the past week." said Mr.. Conol-
ly today. They are going at the gar
dening work this summer as they never
have interested themselves In It before
They are not only enthusiastic They
are determind, and seem to realize
that they have to make the gardens pay
this year. And from the looks Of many
OF the gardens I should say that they
will pay. and pay we'll. II we have any
where near q favorable summer.
Tomatoes and beans, Believe,
will be the principal crops. There
are thousands of tomato plants grow
ing and bushels Of bean seeds have
been planted. There must be more
than a hundred bushels Of seed potar
toes planted this year, and there are
too many onion sets to count them.
Lettuce and radishes seem to be the
principal filler crops.
Thinks Movement a Success.
at believe the garden movement
has now been made a success in the
District Thanks to the central gar
den committee and the newspapers,
the people have been stirred up to
a realization of the necessity for
growing their own food IL they ex-
pect to procure II at reasonable
prices for next winter.
Mr.. Conolly has arranged q sched-
ule OF demonstrations for visiting
thirty-five gardens in various sec
tions an hour each week. The sched-
ule for any particular neighbor hood
can be obtained from the headQuar-
ters of the central garden commit
tee, room 304 Star building, or tele-
phone Main 2913.
The schedule for Monday will be:
Alabama and Nichols avenues south
east, 10 a. m; Birney School, 2542

ADVENTISTS OPPOSE
TAKING PARTI IN WAR
Willing to Serve Government
Provided Services Required
Do Not Violate Decalogue.

The Seventh Day Adventists OF
Washington and the country at large
are willing to aid the Government in
every. way possible during war times,
provided the work required OF them
does not violate our conscientious
obedience to the law Of God as con-
tanned in the decalogue."
Copies of the declaration OF the
stand of the Adventists, adopted by
the executive committee OF the North
American division conference OF
Seventh Day Adventtsts, have pesn
presented to the Secretary OF war
and Assistant Secretary OF war.
They are as follows:
I'VE believe that civil government
Is ordained Of God, and that in the
exercise of its legitimate functions 1t
should receive the support OF its citl-
gems.
1--WE believe in the principles upon
which this Government was founded
I'VE are loyal to its Constitution
which is based upon the principles OF
democracy, and guarantees civil ana
religious liberty to all its citizens.
I'VE depIore that our nation was
been drawn into the horrors of war,
and shall continually pray that the
God of Heaven may speedily bring
peace to our country.
I'VE have been noncombatents
throughout our history. During the
civil war our people officially de-
clared:
THAT we recognize civil govern
nent as ordained of God, that order,
Justice, and quiet may be maintained
in the land. and that the people OF
God may lead quiet and peaceaole
lives in all godliness and honesty.
ain accordance with this fact, we
acknowledge the Justice of rendering
tribute, custom, honor, and reverence
TO the civil power, as enjoined in the
New Testament While we thus cheer
fully render to Caesar the things
which the Scriptures show TO be his,
we are compelled to decline all par
ticfpation in acts OF war and blood
sized, as being inconsistent with III
duties enjoined upon us by our divine
Master toward our enemies and to-
ward all mankind
I'VE hereby reaffirm the foregoing
declaration.
I'VE petition that our religious con-
victions be recognized by those in
authority, and that we be required TO
serve our country only In such ca
pacfty as will not violate our con-
scientious obedience to the law of
God as contained. In the decalogue' IN
terpreted in the teachings OF Christ
and exemplined in His life"
