CHURCH CAMPA
IS LAUNCHED HERE
St. James Parish Will Assist
in Nationwide Effort of
Episcopal Body.

St Joseph county's participation
in the nationwide campaign Of the
Episcopal church was formally be-
gun last night at a meeting Of rep
Iesentatives Of South Bend and
Mishawaka parishes held in the ora
tory OF St. James church. Rev
James A. Miller of Michigan City.
and Rev. John T. Plummer OF Ko-
komo. speaking at the gathering.
stressed the importance of the
movement upon which the American
church has just embarked.
Father Miller. who is the chair
man Of the diocesan committee. de-
clared the campaign is one designed
TO bring about closer cooperation of
the church and the community. He
said in part:
The primary purpose of this
campaign is not the raising of
money. That feature is only incl
dental. What We hope to do is 20
arouse tho spiritual natures of ev-
cry commlnicant of the Episcopal
church. When once this has been
accomplished, thcre Will be no difh-
Guilty in securing funds with which
to carry on our work"
Explains Parish Survey.
The speaker explained at some
length the nature OF the surveys.
which are to be made in every
parish and mission in America. This
gigantic invoice, he said, will en-
able the church TO know just what
her assets arefi as we'll as her liabili-
ties The survey blanks demand.
among other things the statement
OF a three-year expansion program
by every American parish.
New obligations are resting up
on u.s." Father Miller continued.
obligations placed upon us by the
changing world. Take for example,
the matter of prohibition. For
many years the Anti-Saloon league
has been engaged in the work of de-
stroying the liquor industry. Now
that their end has been accomplish
ed the members of that organiza-
ton find themselves at sea because
they have neglected TO provide a
substitute for the saloon. What is
that substitute to be? If the Anti
Saloon league has failed in this de-
partment OF its activities. then the
church must be the more diligent
No longer shall we be content to
drift along with the tide of events.
We must have a definite program
TO present 10 the communities which
we serve"
Father PIummer Speaks.
Father Plummer emphasized the
importance of coordincting all the
church's activities. For many
years" he said. I'VE have been GO
ing along in much the same fashion
as did the allied armies previous to
the appointment Of Foch az gem
eralissimo. hThere was the mis-
sionary activity of the church, the
social service activity and the re-
ligious education activity. Each
was doing we'll enough in its way,
but each was suffering because of
lack Of cooperation. Now we pro-
pose 10 unite the three activities
for more effective service" Father
Plummer placed especial emphasis
upon the spiritual side of the cam
paign.
Completion Of the local survey
will be accomplished within the
next week Thence the blanks will
go 10 the diocesan committee for
consideration and tabulation. In
the autumn the national program
will BE presented TO general con-
vention and the intensive campaign

Hard to Account for EIaures.

Statistics have recently been pub
lished in Germany which are so strik-
ing that the Medical Records Geneva
(Switzerland) correspondent says
they "need confirmation" 1t is stated
that for every 1000 boys born in the
later years of the war. 1,0S6 girls have
been born. Before the war the ratio
was 1000 boys to 1.024 girls. Moth
ing" writes the correspondent, rs
known with certainty as to the con-
ditions that determine sex in the hu-
man species, but there is quite a large
amount of evidence in support OF the
generalization that during wars and
famines, when the conditions are gen.
orally adverse, especially with regard
to nutrition, the proportion of male
relative to female births increases. IL
there is any foundation for this gen.
eralization, then we must conclude
either that the figures are wrong or
that Germany was mighty well nour-
ished during the war, or else that some
entirely aberrant influence was at
work."

untangle the snarl.
There seemed to be no end to the in
ability to settle other matters beside
the overdue bills. when the new
bridge was built over the creek at
Broad street, Burlington, it was sup
posed the channel had been cleared
according to the desires of the United
States authorities, but notices have
been sent to this county that the chan
mel has not been made open to the sat-
isfaction of the government. Engin-
eer Logan says that everything has
been done that the county is required
to do, so the matter will probably be
allowed to stay where it is for the
new Board to wrestle with.
The Board adopted a motion that
all bills contracted by the present
body or for which it is responsible
must be presented not later than ten
o'clock on the morning of December
80. If they are not in at that time
they will not be considered. This re-
quest will probably be met without
opposition as the bills have been pre-
sented without any hesitation prior to
each meeting for the last three
months.
The Board adjourned to meet on
the last day of the year and after con-
sidering the questions that they have
laid over they will end up with a din
ner that will not only mark the clos
ing of 1919 but will also be farewell
to the Board of FreeholderS that have
had so much work to do during the
last few years.
