be located in the state.
Very truly yours,

ENDED 1T

Fletcher in a Few Words Put an End
to the Controversy Over the Estab-
lishment of Leper Colony in Flor
ida.
United States Senate, Nov. %.
Honorable Carter Glass,
Secretary of the Treasury,
Washington, d. c.
Ny dear Mr.. Secretary: With fur
Their reference to conference had with
you, relative to recommendation made
by board appointed by the surgeon
general of the public health service
that a national home for lepers be
located on certain islands off the coast
of Florida. permit me to again direct
your attention to the fact that there
is violent and pronounced opposition
tc the recommendation by officials of
the State Board of Health, civic and
ether organizations. many citizens,
and persons who spend the winter
months in the state.
In the circumstances, may | express
the hope that you will find it possible
to disapprove the recommendation,
understanding, as l do. that there are
homes already established in several
states for such unfortunates; and it
will, no doubt, be found advantageous
to the government to enlarge the ia
cilities at one or more of these insti-
tutions in order to adequately meet
the needs of the public health service.
Very truly and sincerely,
Duncan u. Fletcher.

the drinking fountains that it takes
some time to secure cup of water
This condition will continue for sew
eral weeks, the height Of the season
coming about the second week in Au-

will be a record breaker. Hotel men
announce that their reservations for
August have never been so large.

COUNTY RELIGIOUS SURVEY

A general survey of the reli-
gious conditions and needs of Gra-
ham county. as part of the world
wide surveys being made by the
Interchurch World Movement of
North America. will be made as
soon as the organization of a
county council and other prelimi-
nary steps now under way have
been completed.
Every Evangelical denomina-
ton has been invited to cooperate
in the work. The survey is to be
made by competent investigators
who are satisfactory to all the
churches. The object is to obtain
an impartial and complete sum-
mary of all the facts relating to
the condition of every church in
the county as to its finances, its
membership, whether growing,
stationary or declining, whetherit
has a resident pastor, what fam
lilies are included in its ministry,
how often its people are visited
by pastors, what families in the
county are without pastoral over
sight, etc.
The surveyors are also expected
to report upon church groupings,
upon conflicts in parish bounda-
ries, upon areas without Christian
influences, upon community Gen.
ters or social buildings, such as
lodges and oranges, and upon any
other matters that will throw
light on the problems of the
churches in this county.
The county council will be ex-
pected to assemble this informa-
tion. 1t will then be sent on for
tabulation to the State council,
but. in the meantime, the facts
will be laid before all the leaders
in all the denominations of the
county who will be invited to at
tend conferences where local pro-
grams to fit ascertained facts will
be worked out by common agree
ment.
