4 II hope that the people of the
country will universally observe en-
ployment Sunday as a day of fresh
dedication to the mutual helpfulness
which will serve to work out in the
months to come the difficult prob
lens of employment and industrial
reorganization" says President Will
On in endorsing the plan setting
aside today as Employment
Sunday throughout $4,000 churches
in the country which are joined
with the War Time Commission of
the Churches of Christ in America.
Thousands Of church welcome
committees have been formed
through the efforts of the army and
navy department of the Brother
hood of St. Andrew and following
comprehensive plan developed by
the brotherhood will join in this ma
tion-wide observance.
Real Service to the Returning
Men," is the slogan of the church
welcome committee movement,
which has for its aim a live COM
mittee of active laymen in every
church in the country to serve its
returning men.
This plan puts the problem of
serving its men up to the individual
church. Each church can and should
organize to be of real aid to the
men for whom it has woven stars
on its service flag during the period
Of the war is the full import of the
plan. In other words, for each
church to make its service stars to
its men during the rehabilitation
and reconstruction period just as
these men stood for service to their
country and church during the days
of the war.
The church welcome committee
meets the returning men as soon as
possible after their arrival home.
Its members confer with them, seek
ing out the most pressing needs of
the men. These may range from the
securing of job to arranging tor
college course. The men are well
coined back into the church and
community life. They are made to
feel that their church and COM
munity realize the full obligation

The Colonial Timber and Coal
poration, $l00O0,0O0 company, with
its capital all paid in, was organized
in Omaha last week by Omaha men,
and few outside capitalists.
The majority of the stock is held
in Omaha and here will be located
the executive Offices. The property
of the company, consisting of thous,
ands OF acres of rich coal lands and
vast forests of pine and hardwood
timber, is in West Virginia.
Omaha men will direct the affairs
of the Colonial Timber and Coal
corporation, among them being:
President, w. L. Stickel, who is also
president Of the Stickel Lumber
company; first vice president and
general manager, Ralph E. Sunder-

who hold smaller amounts of stock.
Messrs. Stickel, Sunderland,
George, Matthews and Herdman,
prior to taking part in the corpor-
alton of the company, sent experts
to the coal fields and forests and
there made thorough investigation.
On the strength of these reports
and as result of their own investi-
CATION. they took hold of the pro-
ject and invested their money. They
are firmly convinced that within q
short time the Colonial properties
will be one of the largest producers
of coal and lumber in the country.
Already on the properties there
are several coal mines that are pro-
ducing and number of saw mills
in operation.

The plan has proven its value.
Wherever a church has organized

has been success. 1t is simply
putting into practice the brother
