RED CROSS LEADERS TELL OF NECESSITY
 FOR AT TERWAR WORK
Dr. Farrand and Dr. Axon Principal Speakers at Meeting of Gulf Divi-
 sion Committee Here

What the American Red Cross did to alleviate the sufferings of the soldiers and sailors and civilians in the World War and the part it must play in the reconstruction of the war and rebuilding the vitality of the people of all the na- tions of the world was the subject of a very able instructive address delivered by pr.

 The meeting last night was the third held during the day at which campaign plans for the November roll call of the Red Cross in the Gulf division, compris- ing the states of Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana were outlined by Chairman Lloyd NJ. Hooper of Selma, gave close at tention, here and there making sug- gestions and adding 10 the interest of the meeting.
 There were over 100 delegates in attend ance representing every county in Ala bama, and enthusiastic reports over the outlook for a successful campaign next month were made by all of them.
 Chairman Hooper presided at the morn ing and afternoon sessions and Dr. Mid- dleton Barnwell at the night session.
 At the morning session City Commits sioner Henry P. Burruss welcomed the visitors to the city in short address after which Chairman Lloyd NJ Hooper outlined the work that the Red Cross may now do that the war is over. The service Of the Red Cross are no less needed in times of peace than in war he told the delegates.

All these were either treated in person by the laying on of hands, first under the chin, then on the breasts. then on the stomach ana often by running the fingers up and down the spine.
 On other occasions cures were given at a distance by request over the tele- phone, by wire or mail. In theses, as ir the other cases. methods idea- teal with those of Christian Science were employed. Certain rest periods' and prayer periods" were subscribed These. when followed out invariably ended in cures, declared the disciples
 Mrs. Ivie testified to the success of these methods in the case of herself her son, mother. brother and sister in law. J. l.. Brannon of Cullman testi- fled that he had known the doctor" 20 years and both he and his wife had been cured of stomac ch troubles by Fealy.
 When disciples attained sufficient faith. such as that acquired by Mrs. Carpenter and Miss Smith. they too could cure the sick by these mental Each testified To cases wherein they had succeeded in effecting cures For merly they both testified. a scaie of charges was drawn up by Fealy for these treatments, but this had been abandoned and for some years past it had been the custom to treat the poor free of charge and leave 1t to the pa tients in other cases to pay what they thought fit

Sunday Morning Talk
 GLOOMY cHRjsTtANo.

!. Faith and grace stand for good cheer, courage and contentment. Des- pondency is a contradiction of blessed assurance and the lively hope of true follower of the Lord. Satan has many ways of dupins the children of light. One Of his most successful methods is to hold up the dark side of things. If he- can get a Christian under a spell of gioonniness and keep him there; and then induce him to go about sowing seeds of discontent and discouragement among others. he has good enissary..
 Gloomy Christians cannot grow un- til they get into the sunlight of Gods grace and shine for Christ. instead Of exhibiting long, cheerless, hopeless face in the name of religion. Wake up, cheer up, and be light bearer, a comfort to others, and not a vexa- tion to the faithful of the Lord : Prayer and personal activity in the Lord work will chase away gloom, and tend to cultivate cheerful, hopeful disposition of heart and mind, to think of God and to talk with Him, and to study His will and His purposes concerning the redemption of the world.

 And the crack of doom comes now. The Jewett City cars are running oversthe steam road. if you please. And the Brotherhood governing the steam road has not discountenanced it. In other words unionism here, as ruled by creed. is not receiving the support it expected. Why? .Eecause-tne people realize that the future of this good old Unit ed States of America rests upon CO., operation of the people, by the peo- pie and for the people, upon the restor- ation of peace between capital and la bor.- and -9pon the elimination of this wild. chaotsc orgy of rising prices.

HEADED THE RIGHT WAY. .

If the new economic and industrial policy launched by the labor leaders in this country, bx giving full coopera- ton to the government in holding wages at the present level while bending every effort to the reduction Of the cost of living. is applied ev- anywhere in the country it is main tained that it will mark new era. There can be no question but what At is time for such an era. We have been travelling in the other direction too long, It is time that we should get down to sound and sensible basis and realize that the piIing up of demands for higher wages, one on top of another. is simply increasing the difficulties of bringing about a re- adjustment without affording the de- sired relief. while the stagnation caused by strikes is simply curtailing production at the very time when there is great need that it should be increased.
 2 Not only in connection with the statement to the shopmen. whereby they are given to understand that there should be no further increase in wages, or demands therefor until the plan of the government for increasing the value of the dollar by lowering costs is tried out. but in relation to the advice given to the railroad men in the west to abandon their unau- thcrized strike, must the stand taken by the labor leaders be regarded as significant It is a move to replace radicalism by common sense which ought to succeed. Intoxicated with power or special advantages there has been tendency by certain element to abandon good judgment and give free rein to wild and unjustified un- dertakings- From all indications the labor leaders have been brought to the realization of the necessity of over coming this and for the good of all concerned it is 1t be hoped that they will be able to do their part in ac- complaining what they are undertak- ing.
