Will PUSH RESTORATION
Presbyterians Plan Vigorous Action
on Devastated Churches in
the War Zone.

NEW YORK, June 2S.-Restoration
of devastated Protestant churches in
the war zone will be pushed at once
with vigor by the Presbyterian
Church in the United States, accord
ing to plans just perfected at Pres
byterian headquarters, 1856 5th ave-
nue.. New York city. said DR.. William
Hiram Foulkes, general secretary of
the Presbyterian New Era movement,
today in announcing complete details.
The total amount to be spent this
year by the Presbyterian Church in
this cause is 100000. OF this about
one-half is to be spent among those
Protestant bodies in France and Bel
gium which are accredited agencies of
the evangelical churches in those
countries, the money to be spent di-
rectly by the agencies themselves for
the salaries and equipment of pas
tors for the training and care of stu
dents for the gospel ministry, for
manses. for the support of schools
and theological institutions directly
connected with the agencies to which
funds are sent, and for approved
cooperative community activities
among the various evangelical Prot
estant bodies.
About one-fourth of the fund will
be similarly appropriated to the
proper agency for the Waldensian
gifts made directly to the Walden
sian Church by individual Presbyte-
rian givers. About one-fourth of the
fund will be similarly spent among
Protestant bodies other than Pres
byterians in the war zone.

GET BUSY.
BY H. ADD1NGToN BRUCE.

He was a man in early middle life
and seemingly in excellent health.
But he complained of sleeping badly.
felt tired all the time. and was sub
ject to frequent headaches.
Oculists, dentists and sundry special
lists had looked him over with the
utmost care, but could find nothing
to account for his symptoms. Now
he had come into the hands of a
neutrologist, who likewise pronounced
him physically sound.
Your trouble evidently is purely
the result Of some faulty
habit of life or wrong mental atti-
tude," said the neurologist. Are you
worrying about anything-your bust
ness. for instance?"
why, no."
What is your businessT'
|, Il can't say that have any in par
ticular. You see, 1 am pretty well
of, and do not have to work for my
living. So / do little in a business
way except consult my broker every
morning."
HIM" said the neurologist. then
added abruptly:
You are quite sure you want to be
we'll again."
"Of course 1 do. You don't imagine
enjoy being in this slater"
very well. 1t will not be difficult
to cure you. All you will have to do
is to go to work at some really useful
occupation.
you are a sick man simply be-
cause you are, to put 1t plainly, an
idler.
Being an idler, you have little to
occupy your mind-except yourself.
BY thinking overmuch of yourself
you have manufactured these nervous
symptoms that have brought you to
me.
Go to work. If only to take your
mind off yourself. Get busy. That Is
the best prescription 1 can give you,
and it is the only prescription you
really need"
1t is the only prescription needed
by many another nervous invalid.
The causes Of nervousness are
legion. But the commonest of all pre-
disposing cases is idleness or semi
idleness. AS sociological writer
has declared with almost brutal
frankness:
Nervous prostrations and general
breakdowns are most common among
those members of society who achieve
the least and who may be regarded
as parasites. Exercise both of brain
and muscle is necessary for growth
and for health"
Seldom. in fact, does nervousness
in any form attack the really busy
man or woman whose heart Is in his
or her work. The mind is then too
full Of satisfying thoughts to permit.
the self-watching out of which
nervous symptoms spring.
Whereas Indifference to ones work
or failure to work at all opens wide
the door for anxious. worrying ideas
that soon or late may mean a COM
plete breakdown.
The idler and the semi-idler, think
ing more Of self than of anything
else in the world. necessarily become
abnormally solicitous about the well
fare of self. Let anything that con-
Germs the self go wrong and they fall
into a panic of baneful brooding.
Take this to heart, you who are
nervous and also are obliged to con-
fess that work, earnest work, en-
thusiastic work. is a thing unknown
to you.
Get busy. Find some work to do,
and do 1t with a will. Therein lies
your salvation.

HOLDS DATA FOR SERVICE
FLAG OF 100000 STARS
Brotherhood Says Eighteen on
Average Went Into Army and
Navy From Each P. E. Church.

PHILADELPHIA, June 2S.-Eight-
cen men, on the average, went into
the Army and Navy from every Prot
estant Episcopal church and mission
in the country. This fact has been
brought to light from study Of the
records of the Army and Navy de-
partment of the Brotherhood Of St.
Andrew.
It's records give the rank, military
or naval unit and home address Of
virtually every Episcopalian in the
service. The list runs from Gen. John
j. Pershing and Admiral William G..
Sims down to Private William A.
Babier. Company A. 10th United
States Infantry. LIST Division, and Sea-
man Jack Dewey Lenton. U. S. S.
Pennsylvania.
Further records show that Episco-
palians in the war numbered more
than 10 per cent of the communicate
list in the United States. When the
Brotherhood of ST. Andrew presents
its report to the general convention
Of the Episcopal Church at Detroit
in the fall 1t will furnish the data for
a service fag of nearly 100000 stars.

demand large bonuses in return for

reau his first months pay, and was
then discharged at the end of the
month.
