Episcopal Nation. Wide Cam

Foster Schools For

The first practical work to be un-
6ertaken by a church in America for
the development and welfare of the
Nationwide Campaign by which the
Episcopal Church is seeking to expand
its scope as a church and broaden
its spiritual and practical usefulness.
In the s42,OO0,000 budget for the
campaign, the funds for which are
to be raised in one-day canvass, De-
cember {. tho progra- for expansion
of the Church's work in every field
gives the negro a prominent part.
Education, the Church believes, is
the great stepping stone to the fulfill
ment of the negro's destiny, and its
program for the negro in the Nation
wide Campaign makes education pri-
mary.
1t plans to prepare the two negro
republics. Liberia and Haiti, by es-
tablishing more schools and more CEN
ters at once social and religious, and
by increasing the working staff ard
charging the Church plants already
on the ground In Liberia it purposes
through schools, missionary doctors
and workers to win the cooperation
of 100000 cannibals and devil-wo-'-
shippers of the interior, in the de-
velopment of the rich resources of
Che country. In Haiti 1t plans,
through similar means, to halt the
retrogression of the peasants, and give
them impetus and training sor prog
ress and agricultural development.
But the major work laid out by the
campaign program is In America. It
confronts the problem of the negro
invasion Of the North and undertakes
to create public sentiment in indus
trial communities for decent housing
conditions for the negroes, clean recre-
alton and amusement and oppertuni-
ties for religious life

PICK COTTON, BOLLS AND ALL
IN PROMISING NEW SYSTEM

By the simple process of picking
cotton in the boil, incubatng the
crop thus gathered, and then extract
ing the fiber by machine, the inven-
tor of a new system promises a
practical metamorphosis of the whole
cotton industry, says the January
Popular Mechanics Magazine in an
illustrated article. A $15O,000 plant
already has proved the practicability
of the idea. The success of the meth
cd rests on the discovery that cotton
natures as much as three weeks be-
fore the hull opens, and actually
deteriorates from the time the boil
first cracks. One machine unit pro-
duces one bale an hour, requiring
70 h. p. to run, 20 10. of steam, and
two attendants. Cotton so picked is
declared to be cleaner, brighter,
; stronger, and longer fibered than
the staple handled at present.

WHY A Y. w. C. A. ANYWAY?

1t might be answered that it is ap-
piled Christianity. Or that it is the
| Church at work. 1t is Church ex-
tension and Christ extension. It has
to be seen to be separate thing be-
cause of the curse of our unhappy
divisions"
Last winter a lunatic writing in the
New Republis asserted that "when
the Y. W. C. A. returned from over
seas it either would cd ought to take
over the Church and run it as it
should be rum" That statement justi-
fies the appelation ''lunatic." 1t also
implies vast sum Of ignorance. But
there are others who might make the
same mistake.
We should remember that the
Church is the Body of Christ; it is the
body that expresses the personality,
the spirit, the soul of man. The
Church as Christ's Body should ex-
press the will, the heart, the desire
of the Christ. And so it is that every
Christian work will be found as an
expression of Chirst's Spirit. And we
should not forget our mother, from
whom it comes.
We should not make the mistake,
as above referred to, Of thinking it
possible for there to be Y. W. C. A.
or a Red Cross, ETC., apart from the
Church The corporate expression of
tenderness and loving kindness came
he L
of hospital before that. Why the
crumbs from the rich mans table were
hard enough to get; and the sores of
the afflicted were left to the care of
a dogs soft tongue. 1t seemed to be
quite an exception when the Samari-
tan helped the Jew. 1t was John
speaking in the Name of the Christ
who first said: "Divide what you have
with the needy, and be honest and
kind, ETC.
So the Y. w. C. A. is the body of
Christ, the Church, with seeing eyes
getting vision of the needs of Gods
children, listening to urgent appeals
from Japan and Turkey to California
and Marietta: it is the Church reach
ing out with loving hands to make
real girls everywhere that "The eter-
nal God is thy refuge and underneath
are the everlasting arms" So we
are not surprised to know that every
worker in the Y. w. C. A. is men,
Der of the Family of God, His Church.
That was glorious spectacle on
Monday night-the enthusiastic man
ner in which few business men gave
gladly for this cause $500 in a few
minutes. 1t was an inspiration, and
made one realize that the day of mar
rowness and selfishness is passing
away; and that the Kingdom of God
is at hand! Contributed.

MANY APPLY ID LEASE
 LAND UNDER NEW LAW

More than 100 applications for lease of to exceed one section of state land to one person or firm, under the provi- sions of the land lease law. Number 60, have been received by the land depart ment.
 No action has been taken on them, and the matter will be brought to the attention of the state land board at their meeting today. This law is one of several emergency measures passed by the recent legislature and not signed by the governor, and which the attorney general has declared invalid on that account.
 That a test of some sort on the land law is coming is regarded as certain among those informed on what is going on at the capitol. Whether the land board will deny the applications, and be mandamused by the applicants, or whether they will grant them and be enjoined by the opponents of the bill remains to be seen. But it is regarded as certain that test is soon to be made to finally determine in the courts whether the bill is now a law.
 Meanwhile, the opponent of the meas ure are busy, and it is rumoredA that they will have referendum petitions on the street today or tomorrow, thus heading off the possibility of the meas. ure becoming law at the end of 90 days.

(BY CAPUT)

The mills of baseball are grinding exceedingly fast in the first few days of Coast league play. No sooner were the opening week games over than the percentage column stood for a radical encouragement. Los Angeles. which gained the top of the ladder at the end of the first week, retains it's place with d comfortable lead over Oakland, oc- cupier of second position, San Fran cisco having slipped to fourth, Salt Lake. fortunately, stepped into Oak lands boots.
 Thus, the first division now includes Los Angeles, Oakland. Salt Lake and san Francisco and an early season fight is on, at the very outset, in which thtse four contenders will do their ut most to remain above the fifth place. There is only a half games difference between third and fourth but there's an. awful drop from fourth to fifth. a diffrence of 250 per cent. Fans may, therefore, settle themselves down for a while, it seems, keeping tab on the struggle of the leading quartette to maintain the upper rungs of the per- ce5tage ladder.
 In yesterdays game, Pertica, consid- cred by many as Red Killefer's best bet, showed up in major league form. He justified the big league price set upon him before the opening. of S5.000 or two selected players in exchange. Killefer refused the offer.

SHOWERS HAVE BEEN
 GREAT AID ID CROPS

Following generous showers over the greater portion of the southern half of the state, crops have made wonderful progress during the week ending yes- terday. Wheat especially, is making an excellent showing and barley is spring ing up very uniformly.
 A satisfactory yield has been the result of alfalfa cutting and cotton has been coming up despite the cool nights. Citrus trees are blossoming out with their fragrant flowers and apricot and peach trees have made good progress.
 Cold nights in the northern part of the state were unfavorable for calves and young lambs during the early part of the week. The waterholes have been replenished and the grass caused to spring up in Greenlee county and ad- jacent territory in New Mexico by a moderate rainfall.
 That summer is beginning to push its way to the front is evidenced by the fact that the temperatures recorded throughout the state have in almost every case advanced. In Yuma the highest recorded temperature was 94 degrees, the minimum being 50 In Phoenix 92 was the highest and 42 the lowest. In Tucson the highest tenn perature was only SS and 110 inches of rain fell.

Central Texas different fields are vic ing with each other for the center of the stage.
 The Osage district and Oknulgee county can still claim most of the Big Stuff in Oklahoma, while Duke. Bur5 and Hogg are still running strong in Texas, with considerable interest in the new counties of Erath and Pala Pinto. Locally, the Holbrook structure is re- ceiving considerable attention.
 This Holbrook structure is an un- usually large one, approximately 1d miles by six miles, and geologists say 1t is perfect in all it's details. Proof that the big fellows believe in the DOS abilities of the Holbrook field is found Tn the fact that many Of their we'll known representatives are on the ground, and it is rumored that one of them is to shortly commence drilling operations on a scale large enough to fully test the structure
 In anticipation of this event, many ! local people are obtaining acreage and. should discovery of oil result from the l proposed operations, it will mean new and added wealth to our already pros I porous and growing city.

WANT PAVING ON 1OTH STREET IN FRONT IF .DEAC0NESs HOSPITAL

Requesting that the west side of Tenth street from Brill street to Me Dowell road be included in the plans for paving that portion of Tenth street, H. B. Wilkinson appeared before the city comission yesterday on behalf of the Deaconess hospital, whose new building is nearing completion at that location.
 The paving of the west side of Tenth between those streets had been omitted from the plans by order of the commis- sion in compliance with the request of N. L. Carpenter whose property abuts that side of Tenth street. Because MT Carpenter had to pave the other streets abutting on his property. it was consid cred to be hardship to compel him tc pave on Tenth street also, the city manager explained on behalf of the commission.
