EPISCOPAL CHURCH
 HAS MADE \ ASTEADY
 GROWTH IN MESA C|TY
By Rev. Francis BIoy.

St. Marks Protestant Episcopal church of Mesa is an institution that has made remarkable progress from modest beginning.
 This church began, as do most sim liar missions, in quiet and unpre- tentious way. A few communicants of the church in Mesa, hailing from various parts of the country, found themselves without their particular church home, and naturally feeling desire for their own form of wor ship, decided to meet in home. MT. and Mrs. Hagerlund. devout church people from their youth, offered their home, in which services were held for a time.
 The congregation soon outgrew the capacity of a home, however and Mir Dan Mahoney, not a member of the Episcopal church, exhibited his usual good citizenship and sympathy by don ating the use of store building. From there the congregation moved to the K. of P hall, where services were held until the dream of church could be realized.
 Thanks to the gift of lot on Pep per avenue by Dr. A. J. Chandler and MT. Dwight B. Heard, the work of CT ection was commenced, and the church completed in 1911, at a cost of s4,000. The congregation for a time was under the care of Rev NJ. H. Birckhead of New York, but owing to continued ill health he was compelled to resign after few months. He was succeeded by r. J. Hall. student of the divinity school of Philadelphia, who remained about a year and returned east.
 For some time services were main tained by visiting ministers and the staff of Trinity Pro- Cathedral of Phoe- nix. In. the fall of 1915 MT. Francis Bloy, a ley reader and postulant for holy orders, was appointed by Bishop Atwood as minister in charge. As might be expected with a resident min

the coming winter is concerned is the new home of the First National bank and the Mesa Bank and Trust company, which will be erected on the corner of Main and Mcdonald where now the Brooks Service station is standing. This structure will cover 110x14a feet, and will have on the lower floor a 75 foot front for the First National, with the Bank and Trust company room ad- joining, while on Mcdonald street will be store rooms. The National Bank room will be two stories high to the ceiling, the remainder of the lower floors being one story Above these and extending to a height of either three or four stories will be office rooms or whatever other purpose may be most advantageous This building is expected to cost not less than geo. 000
 North of the new bank building will come the proposed Nets building to be erected by Len and Phil Nets. This will be wide enough for either two or three stores, the exact plans not hay ing been decided upon, with an up- stairs for either office or lodge rooms.
 Another mark of progress is the ex- tensive addition now started by the Lesueur Emporium. This is an 80-foot extension, with a remodeling of the present building and the converting of the upstairs into apartments.
 Another building now being erected at a cost of 5000 is the Dan Hubert machine shop and garage of cemert and plate glass, which has been leased in advance by Champagne and Eoll and will be occupied by them as soon as completed.

RELIEF SOCIETY ATTENDsN NEEDY
 STORES WHEAT
Women of Church, Follow > ing the Suggestion of the Prophet, Store Up Against
 a Time of Famine and Shortage of Food

Shortly after the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints was organ ized, it president Joseph Smith, the prophet, through the inspiration, saw the need of organizing the women of the church into a body whereby they would be of help to the church as well as a benefit to each other. An organi- zation was effected which through de- velopment has envolved itself into the Relief Society as we have it among us now and has the distinction of being the first organization for women in the world.
 Women of ability and experience are chosen to oversea or take charge of it's activities in each ward of the church while each stake has also an organization to look after the needs of all the associations in their stake and a general board with headquarters at Salt Lake City, takes charge of all the work throughout the world. They prepare lessons, suggestions and en- couragement to all the local organi- zations as well as visit and counsel them.
 Charity Chief Aim.
 Charity, or help to the needy, whether sick in poverty or trouble is it's chief aim. Teachers go out by twos, who have charge of certain local dis tricts, once each month to instruct and encourage or help the members in dis tress, making report of. the same that help may at once be given. Not only are it's members it's beneficiaries but those of any class needing assistance can receive same by applying to the proper officers. The members who have gifts either for charity buildings wheat, general, or otherwise give the same to these teachers who in turn take it to association treasurers where strict account is kept of same. Dead bodies are prepared for burial by a committee who have this part of tht work under their supervision.
 The officers of each ward organi- Zation are expected to meet and dis cuss it's own needs once each weel while a general meeting of the loea members is held once a week in the association room in the church house of the ward where all are invited tC attend, whether church members ol not. At these meetings topics of in terest are discussed, among the sub

jects being theology, home science, lit erature, child culture, health, genealogy and temple work, and other lessons as prepared by the general board or by the local officers.
 Store Against Famine.
 During early years of the organi- zation in Utah, President Young through his prophetic vision saw the need of collecting and taking care of wheat for use during times of scarcity which would come. The duty was given to the women of this organi zation to collect and care for it to be used when the time of scarcity came. Each fall for many years the teachers would go to IS members and take upa wheat collection of whatever amount couldbe spared or it's equiva- lent in cash. be it little or much. This would be stored in granaries owned by the women and later put in eleya- tors until quantity had been collected.
 Helped the War.
 Some people have thought and said said that it was an unnecessary labor as famine or scarcity would never come but the sisters knowing their leader was inspired, kept gathering and stor- ing each year. At the time of the re cent shortage during the war this wheat amounting to 12,9S1,0 pounds. was turned over to the food admins tration of the U. S., and helped great extent to relieve the bread shortage o four soldiers. This was done cheer fully by the women of the relief so- ciety and they in turn have been hon. nrad for if hy ha 1aadinO nlnp1a of nation. During this recent crisis these relief society members have responded to calls for help through the Bed Cross, W. C. T. U., Y. M. |. A, Liberty Bond Thrift Stamps, etc. This organiza- ton owns and conducts a magazine of it's own and it has some very inter- esting departments Literature, stor- ies, biographies, home science, health talks, topics of the times, guide work consisting of the lessons for each month, and all published for a dollar and twenty five cents year and what is realized above expenses go to help defray the expenses of the organiza tion.
 Society Growth
 During the year 1918 cash receipts and disbursements for charity general and other purposes amounted to s463, 463.76 In 1S42 when the organization was first effected there were eighteen officers and members and at the close of 1918 there was a total of 6,511 of ficers, 13,795 teachers. 24,990 members making a grand total membership ot 45,296. At the present time in the Maricopa stake the destinies of this or ganization are directed by Mamie Clark, president; Eliza M. Openshav and Sarah Mcdonald councselors witt Emma Rollins, seretary.
 ! No worker, officer or member re l ceiyes any material remuneration fol i their labors but does the same cheer fully and willingly with the assurance l that their reward in Heaven will bt sure for their labor of love to theil 1 fellow men in time of need.

Pageants In Great Demand and
Y. W. Called Upon From
All Quarters.

A Pageantry and Drama Ex-
change will soon have to be Or
gained at national headquarters OF
the \. w, c. A. in order to Meet
, the demands made upon it from all
parts of the country.
The department was organized to
furnish material for and direct page
ants i'll the larger cities and the
movement has spread SO that towns
all over the United States are want
ing pageants and plans for COM
munity entertainments. The requests
read something like this, "Coalville,
Utah, is anxious to know about
books on costumes, drapery, beauty
culture, dramatic art and interior
decoration" 1t is the business of
| the department to figure out just
what sort of an entertainment Coal
willie intends to give.
Again, an emphatic request may
come for plays" something lively
and interesting (Which a girls club
in small mining town can give.
Again the department must use some
sort of ,super-intelligence to decide
what kind of play will seem lively
and interesting to the residents of
this town and it is a task to please
equally New England, southern,
western and mining towns,
In order to meet these requests
this department is cooperating with
the town and country committee of
the national Y. W. c. A. in a plan
which will mean the organization of
teams of leaders who, will go out
into the different sections of, the
country and demonstrate just how
to produce pageant and how,
through pageantry, the message of
any group Of people may find
beautiful and inspiring medium of
expression.
Another plan is to collect the
music and directions for simple folk
dances for use in community enter
tainments.
