We hear SO much about equality
and yet equality does not seem to
exist. Some communities have bet
ter roads, better schools, better
churches, better drainage, better SAN
itation, etc. The reason for the SEEM
ing inequality in the difference of
management and the difference of
exertion to secure these needed inn
provements. We must all learn that
the will of the majority can be guided
by facts. There is no need of color.
ing the real issue. The consolidated
movement can stand careful investi-
cation. It can stand the air of publi-

power to argue through results, for its
successful existance.
1T is easy to show how state aid will
help in establishing and in maintain
ing such schools but to assume that
state aid will pay all your bills is o
serious misunderstanding. State aid
is a great help. Send to the Comnis-
sioner of education James NJ CcCon-
nell of st. Paul, Minnesota for the
School Laws of Minnesota which
will give you this information and
show you to what extent state aid will
help a consolidated school. Many have
yet to learn that good schools cost
good money and give much better re-
suits than would otherwise be possi-
bic. The chief problem is to focus
this money on the right amount and
right kind of Improvement and facili-
ties. If this is done and there is the
right spirit of support and cooper
alton results will come. Human mules
are an inconvenience to any progres

open to CONVICTION.
The consolidated schools are plann-

WILL CONFER ON .
VACANT PULPITS
Meeting of General Assembly
Committee to Be Held
at Jamestown Z

An imlpo;,taIt .constieaca, will be
held in the First Presbyterian church
at jamestown next Tuesday, Novem-
Der IS, under the auspices of the per-
manent committee on vacancy and
supply Of the Presbyterian general as
sembly. The conference will be led
by the corresponding secretary Of the
general assembly's committee. Rev.
Walter II. Houston of Columbus, o.
where the Offices Of the committee are
located. The members of the COM
mittee include DR.. George N. Luc-
cocil, chairman. Wooster, Ohio, DR..
w. L. McEwan, Pittsburg, DR.. John
Timothy Sttone, Chicago, DR.. S. S.
Palmer, Columbus, DR.. Paul 3. Jen-
kins, milwaukee, and Dr. John T..
Bushnell, Minneapolis. i.
A few years ago the Presbyterian
general assembly took action appoint
ing this comm mittee because of the
rapidly growing number Of vacant
churches The committee has been
seeking to definitely organize all of
the Presbyteries for the proper super
vision and care of pastorleSs fields.
Presbyteries within the bounds of the
synod Of North Dakota are to be re-
presented in the jamestown confer
encc on Tuesday. The conference
opens at 1 80 p NJ. and will contin-
ue throughout the afternoon. In adj
dition to Presbyterial committees,
any and all other persons specially
interested are invited
Some very important phases of the
problem Of vacancy and supply will
be discussed at the conference. Re
cent developements in connection with
the war have only intensified the va
cancy situation. The Presbyterian
church contributed the services Of
about one thousand of her ministers
in connection with various war activ-
ities The church has suffered con-
siderable loss in posters, some of
whom gave their lives in camps and
on battle-fields, others being still en-
gagged in, various lines of service out
side of the pastorate. The number
of candidates for the Ministry was
also decreased by the war and the
problem ON ministerial support has
been steadily rendered more acute by
the greatly increased cost Of living.
All of these questions will be detin-
itely considered by the conference !,
A number Of the Presbyteries in
North Dakota have already organized
for the care Of their vacant fields
along the lines marked out by the
general assembly. 1t is hoped that
this conference vii materially con-
tribute to the welfare Of the churches
in North Dakota as well as the gener-
al work Of the denomination.
