 FIELD FOR FLOCK
EPISCOPAL RECTOR DEViSES PLAN TO CARE FOR PARISH IONERS AND DEPEND
 ENTS IN TIME OF
 TROUBLE.

Death benefits, sick benefits and old age pensions are part of the prac- tical Christianity practiced by St. Johns Episcopal Mission of Charles ton, s. C., among it's practitioners, with one days wage a month from each employed man and woman as pre- mium. St. Johns is perhaps the first insurance church. in history.
 Tn the four months the plan has been in operation, the congregation has in- creased until movement has been started to raise a $50,00O fund and build church large enough for the needs
 The inventor of the insurance church" plan is Rev. A. E. Cornish, a veteran Episcopal Rector of Charles, ton. MT Cornish held the pulpit of St. John's from 1888 to 1896. and re- turned last July when the Episcopal Nationwide Campaign for ascertain. ing and financing the needs of the whole Church made it necessary for some one to direct the survey of the parish.
 Mir. Cornish found his former parish. toners strangely apathetic. Deciding to win back their interest, le planned to give them an opportunity to do something definite for the mainte- nance and constructive work of the church. The insurance plan was con. ceived. All nembers of the mission passing the age of 7a are to be pen. sioned at $2 week. Persons who fall i'll are given $5 a week sick benefit for four consecutive weeks One hun dred dollars is paid the relatives of each member fin good standing at his death.

Utilizing Sums Heating Power.

Many attempts have been made to utilize the heating power of the sun for engines, writes Charles c. Ahhot in the Youths Companion.

 of Williamsburg since his early youth, is a fair specimen. Another is E. b, Pritchard, whom Woodrow Wilson named as postmaster for the little city, and who is as popular there as though the county was not nearly ten to one Republican.
 Bryant is yet we'll under 40, and he looks even younger than the years that he owns.
 When Bryant was lad of 12 he left | his home in the mountains and set out to gain his education. He did this, and when he was only IS years old the Spanish-American War came on and he enlisted as a private, and served for eight years, eight nionths and fifteen days. He was in Manila and participated in 13 battles, eseap- ing without scratch.
 After his soldering days he returned to the home of his youth, married and embarked on business career The money he aved during his military service started him in business in a modest way, and he has been fortunate in all of his ventures.
 q am just as patriotic today as l was when I was buying Liberty Bonds" said Bryant to the Savings Herald man, but will admit that is only one of the reasors am now buy ing my limit on the Treasury Savings Certificates. One reason I am buying is that I cannot see anything like as good and as safe an investment any where.
 If the government is to bring back the country 10 the normal it must have large sums of money to put every branch of industry to work to the ut most, and to create a foreign demand for American products, and to pave the way for the citizens of this coun- try to participate in the reconstruction work. not only here, but in Europe.
 The only way it can obtain this money is through the savings of the people. The, present conditions are really deplorable. Many who never be- fore earned anything like the amount 1 they are now earning are spending the money as rapidly as it comes in, and are giving no thought for the morrow.
 They are not only treating them selves unfairly, but they are retarding the welfare of the entire country. When increased production of essen tials are vital the thoughtless are spending the money they earn for lux uries and non-essentials.
 Every cent of money that is spent for these useless articles leaves the community, never to return. If the wage earner would only start a sys- tematic saving, by buying War Say ings Stamps and Treasury Savings Certificates, he would soon have a nest egg that would serve him well in after years, and he would at the same time aid his government in solving the financial problems that now confront us. and that, if properly solved, will keep this country at the head of all nation of the world for many years to come"

EPISCOPAL CHURCH /
 MOVES FOR UNITY
CHANGE IN CONSTITUTION Io ADMIT CONGREGATION
 ALlSTS
CHURCH IS REoRGANIZED
Nationwide Campaign Expected " Make Possible Several Impressive Developments Within
 Communion

Southern leaders of the Episcopal Church, back home after the epocn' making General Convention ct the Church at Detroit, have plunged into the task of shaping into reality the impressive policies for which founda' < tion was laid there, and which include
 1. The move toward union ol churches, to which the Episcopal Church committed itself by steps for an amendment to it's Constitution that will permit in three years the Epis sopal ordination of Congregational clergymen, as well as similar agree ment with other denominations.
 2. The complete reorganization oI the Church, through creation of an executive council to supplant all exist ing official boards of the General Con yention.
 8. The establishment of the Ma tional Church League for Social and Industrial Democracy, to fight for so cial and economic principles on a Christian basis.
 Ali these thiHgs-the broadening oi the Churchs scope and functions-are expected to be made possible through the success of its Nationwide Cam paign of spiritual awakening and greater practical service. This cam paisn, designed to extend the Churchs influence along social, educational ana spiritual lines at home and abroad has been described by leaders of the Church as the greatest missionary adventure in the history of the com munion, an adventure that should help nightly to enable the Church to re cover it's Apostolic torch of leadership freed from the control of the stand pat influences that have for so long untitled it's proclamation of Christian fundamentals"
 "The genius of the Nation-W Wide Campaign is not the moley-raising end of it." said Dr. Robert w. Pat ton, national campaign director, who is touring the South. Tt is a very mod est financial goal, that of probably less than $5O,00O,O for the richesl Church of Professionalism in America The big thing is the campaigns avowed determination to reach every individual community of the ChurcD to discover just what lis religion means to him, and what he is willing to sacrifice for it. It intends to trans form every paper communicant' int a real Churchman aflame with the old zeal for the spread of Christian. fundamentals.
 We must organize the world along Lnselfish lines, or the selfish interests ot civilization will organize it along selfish lines" Episcopal leaders are pointing to the proposed concordat with the Con gregational Church-the old Church | of the Puritans-as a historic event | in religious annals, as 1t brings into close unity of effort two great forces | in the national life that were as far apart religiously and socially as the l poles throughout colonial history and down to and including tRe War Be tween the States-the Puritan of New England and the Anglican Cavalier of the South.

PLAN PROPOSED
ORGANIZATION for Carrying Troops
in Large Numbers at Any
Emergency Is Urged.

Washington. Aug. 80. - Organ
ization of permanent transport
reserve capable of carrying 49,
600 troops is proposed by the war
department as part of the army
reorganization plan. This reserve,
with the regular army transport
feet would make it possible to
move an expeditionary force of
nearly two hundred thousand men
at the outbreak of war.
The plan as outlined by Briga-
dier-General Frank T. Hines of the
transport service, contemplstes re-
serving 10 of the former German
passenger ships and a number of
cargo carriers with their alloca-
ton to commercial lines on condi-
ton that the crews be enlisted in
the transport reserve and that no
structural changes be made in the
vessels. The ships are in perfect
shape for army use and General
Hines would have them subject to
periodical inspection by army en-
gineers to insure their being kept
in that state.
The Leviathan, George Washing
ton, Mt. Vernon and Savannah are
among the ships to be retained il
congress approves the plan.

VOTE TO ACCEPT
WILSON'S OFFER

Aurora, Ill, Aug. -Machinists
employed in the Burlington rail-
road shops voted last night to ac-
cept President Wilson's offer OF an
increase in pay of cents an hour
on a 10-hour basis. The raise
amounts to cents an hour as the
rail shopmen work eight hours a
day. It. dates back TO May / The
raise was to have been given TO the
men whether they voted for IL or
not. Clerks were added to the pay
roll department several days ago to
figure the mems checks and hon
uses based on the new wage scale.
The new rate is IS cents an hour.
In voting to accept the raise the
men assume that the cost OF living
is to come down in the next so
days.
They were encouraged to hope

the wholesale market.
