AMERICAN CHAPLAINS
JEALOUS in SERVICE
Rev. DR.. Macfarland. of Federal
Council Interviews Them.

Rev. Charles S. Macfarland. general
secretary Of the Federal Council Of
the Churches Of Christ in America,
has been interviewing the army and
navy chaplains. both the veterans and
those newly assigned. and reports
them enthusiastic regarding their
work.
= While allowing for all delinquencies
incidental to army life and not min
imizing the difficulties with which they
are constantly dealing. they express
pride in their men and find them ap-
preciatiye and responsive to deeply
spiritual appeal.
DR.. Macfarland has not found a
single chaplain who does not rejoice
in what one termed the greatest op-
portunity of any preacher for a great
parish. who wants hard work with
ample spiritual reward" Another
said: Il would not swap my position
for any in the camp, whether mill
tary or religious"
They all appear ruddy and in good
health.
Gen. Gorgas expressed the highest
praise Of the chaplains and their
work.
The work of the Federal Council for
the last five years in setting up its
general committee on army and navy
chaplains is felt to be one of the most
clearly providential tasks undertaken
by the council and with the passage
Of the new bill by Congress provid-
ing for three times the present num-
ber of chaplains, the Washington Of
fice OF the council will have its hands
full Of work.

Every chairman reported his prepa-

tor d. ]. Callahan. chairman Of the

Membership in the 800 clubs I'm the

In the Fourth district. OF which

ing by Z. C. Graham. chairman of the
Eighth district. Every employe OF the
National Electrical Supply Company,
which which he is connected. has made
this promise, Mr.. Graham said. and

lariZe this PLAN

Church MUST WIDEN
SCOPE OF ACTIVITIES
Rabbi Simon Says Reconstruction
Needed for After-War Work.

The church must broaden the scope
of its work IL it is to successfully play
its part in the reconstruction after the
war. Rabbi Abram Simon declared last
night at the fourteenth anniversary
services of the Washington Hebrew
Congregation.
The moral breakdown that has swept
over Europe and which may sweep
over the United States should the war
continue two or three years must be
met by the church by a broadening OF
its sphere and entrance into civil
service.
Loosening of the marriage tie. as
demonstrated by the proposed lega-
lized poIygamy of European philos-
ophers and savants, must be combatted
and overcome Rabbi Simon declared.
The synagogue-the church is the one
organization that has always. stood for
the sacredness OF marriage and the
home" he said. Destroy the sacred
ness of marriage and the result
spreads inevitably through the nation
through the home and results in a
general loosing of all standards Of
morals
The church must prepare for the
work that is ahead of it now, he con-
tinued. In the United States work
must be begun to prevent the same
moral breakdown that has spread
over Europe

Bolsiano Class of Foundry M. E.
Church Hits at Theaters.

At a meeting of the BoIgiano
class, of Foundry Methodist Episco-
pal Sunday school. the following
resolutions were adopted unani-
mously:
whereas the Fuel Administra-
tor of the District of Columbia, in
his discretion. has determined and
so ordered. that the present short
age Of coal has created an emer-
gency that requires the closing of
certain churches each Sunday until
said emergency has ceased to exist
Be IL resolved that the Bolgiano
class agrees with said order in a
full spirit of cooperation and 10y
atty; and
WHEREAS 1t also appears from
said order that the various tlaces
Of amusement, theaters, moving
picture houses. etc. are not Affect
ed and may remain open as usual
on Sundays: be It further
Resolved that the Bolgiano class
with the fullest spirit of loyalty,
respectfully call attention to the
apparent lack of appreciation of
the great needs of the nation to the
continuance, without interruption,
Of the regular religious worship at
this time of national peril and trial
OF the moral courage Of our people,
and to the apparent consideration
that amusement and entertainment
OF the people on the Sabbath day
Is a superior consideration to the
keeping open of the regular places
OF worship"
The resolutions were signed by
Perry Elliott. president: James A,
