CHICAGO FAITH HEALER URGES
 PLAN ADOPTION

New York, Dec. 12.---Reviva1 of the R2inistry of healing in every parish of She Episcopal Church is urged by a new faith healer in Chicago to be Saade part of the work of the Epis- copa1 Nation Wide Campaign.
 The new healer is Martin C. Stone of the Church of the Holy Nativity, Chicago. MT. Stone, who says he practices healing with unction and the laying on of hands, has submit ted his appeal to the executive offices of the Episcopal Campaign here, through the Society of the Nazarene. a national organization of the church interested in this phase of it's work.
 MT. Stone asserts that the day for the complete restration of the minis try of healing in the church has come. As one of the Chicago organizers for the Nationwide Campaign, he is making the establishment of faith healing, as a permanent feature of the life of the parish of the Nativity, a part of the work of the Nation Wide Campaign

CAMBRIDGE AND OXFORD ASK FOR
 GOVERNMENT AID

London, Decv. 12 Oxford and Cambridge Universities have applied for financial assistance from the state. The government has responded by appointing a commission to inquire into the matter.
 There is no doubt in the public mind that both the famous universi- ties are hard up but so also is the state and the present Is not consid- cred the most suitable time for ob- taining any considerable grant from it.
 Meanwhile many of the under graduates aref nding 1t difficult to make both ends meet owing to the inflated cost of living. Efforts are being made by invoking the prof. teering act to enable them to procure necessities at less cost.
 Before the war 1t was possible for an unusually gifted youth to win scholarships which almost if not quite maintained him. Now when the minimum sum on which he can sup port himself while at either of the universities amounts to from $1,300 to $1,500 a year he cannot live on sch holarships. The very narrow bridge by which the poor man might pass into the old universities has broken down. It is alleged that an educa- ton at Oxford or Cambridge has be- come again the exclusive privilege of the welI-tO-do.

from 100000 to $2O0,O 0O-that have

the reclamation of young Colored
men, who would otherwise have had
no place for recreation in proper

structures in the large cities have
been found to be too small to meet
