DINNER AT CHURCH
Cathedral Church Club Enter.
tanned Monday Night.
Speakers Explained Work Be-
ing Done at Funston.

More than one hundred men at
( tended the dinner of the Cathedral
church club of Grace cathedral, Mon
day evening, to h, r addresses by the
: Rev. Otis Grey and Bishop James
Wise concerning the work the church
is doing, and purposes to do for the
soldiers at Camp Funston.
An excellent meal was served by the
ladies OF the church, in the Cathedral
Guild hall. This was followed by a
short musical program furnished by
quartet composed of Mr. and Mrs.
Hugh Dick erson, Miss Price and Mr..
Glenwood Jones, with Mrs. ]. A.
Campbell at the piano, and by the two
addresses.
Rev. Mr.. Grey. who spoke first, has
been for several years, the rector of
Trinity church. Atchison. Kan. and at
the beginning of the war was appoint
ed a military chaplain at Camp Fun
ston. He emphasized the need of re-
ligious guidance for large body of
men, taken from their accustomed
surroundings and occupations and
placed in an entirely new environ
ment. 1t is only thru the thoro in
culcation of religious principles that
the moral stamina of men so placed
can be maintained, he pointed out.
Soldiers Appreciate Work.
He said further. that the efforts of
those ministers now laboring at the
camp have met with response far in
advance of anything anticipated, that
hundreds of men constantly attend
the religious services where dozens
were expected, and concluded by
pointing out the churchs opportunity
to aid thru financial backing.
Bishop Wise followed Mr.. Grey's
address with a talk explanatory of
what the dioceses of Kansas, Ne
braska and Colorado have Jointly
agreed to do for the carrying on of
the work so well begun at Camp Fun
ston. There are many soldiers from
Nebraska and Colorado at the camp
in addition to the Kansas men, and it
has been found that in this great body
of men the Protestant Episcopal
church is the most strongly repre-
scented next to the Roman Catholic.
Funds Are Needed.
The three dioceses have agreed to
raise fund to be used in supporting
as many chaplains. erecting as many
buildings, and doing any other thing
that will help the work along Bishop
Wise announced that November rs
will be the day on which the mem
bers of Grace Cathedral parish will
be asked for a contribution to further
the work.

the Cathedral Church club, was in
