those who have beer TO SELL or VINO

lazy to look up facts disproving this
contention Of the brewers Puget
Sound yards are launching the larg-
est ships and greater numbers OF
them. and the WOrkmen have no beer
and want no beer. He mentions a
study in Colorado mines. where O sim
liar peerless record for l2borers has
been made. Asked what plans the
churches have in hand following the
end OF the war the former moderator,
and still foremost leader, said his
church needs no plan beyond preach
ing. He deprecated plans, and thought
churches make too many.
Speaking OF conditions west and
east he said that IL he could afford
them he would buy million geogra-
piles and present them TO leading
men Of the east. He wanted the lat
