FUNDS P0UR N Fur
CH|LDREA'S SOCIETY

Richmond swept forward yester.
day in the drive for funds for the
Childrens Home Society of Virginia
and at the close of the day several
contributions for $500 each were re.
ported by workers, materially raising
the amount so far obtained in the
city Workers were enthusiastic and
believed that with continued work and
generous response on the part OF the
campaign next wednesday.
Hard work will be necessary to full
All this hope, but all workers are de-
termined to leave no stone unturned
and will canvass every man and
woman that it Is possible for them to
call on in the limited time they have
at their disposal. 1t will be impos-
sible, however. to reach everyone, and
people are urged to send their con-
tributions to headquarters without de-
lay.
I'VE are making progress, but
slowly" Mr.. Williams said" and what
we need is more public spirited men
like those we found today who con-
tributed $500 TO this worthy cause.
A number of these and we can raise
the city's quota with large number
of smaller subscriptions which We
are confident the people will give as
soon as they fully realize the Won
derful work that the Children's Home
society is doing, and its great need
for funds"
Reports to state headquarters
showed that progress was being made
in every section of Virginia. and
wherever there was any noticeable
apathy. the fact that some counties
had been slow in completing their or
ganization and launching their drive
was believed to be responsible. While
all workers are confident that their
quotas will be raised before the close
of the campaign on next Wednesday,
headquarters issued a statement warn
ing against overconfidance.
Our goal will not be reached with
out the concerted effort of every
worker until the final moment OF the
campaign" this statement said, ''and
we must keep continually AT the job
Wait until the fund has been com

fore slowing up in the work. for the

not risk failure when such vital mat

Raise Funds for
Salvation Army

Governor Emmett d. Boyle OF Ne
vada has issued a proclamation des-
ignating the week Of September 20
to October 6, 1919, as Salvation
Army week.
During the war, when the Saliva
ton Army was eager to serve at the
front and had many trained members
experienced in practical works OF
mercy, the Benevolent and Protective
Order OF Elks gathered and gave suf-
ficient funds to confer this service
upon the soldiers. Throughout the
country this same patriotic order has
now taken up the work OF setting the
Salvation Army free to render fur
Their social service at home and is
embarked on a campaign to raise the
necessary money.
During this week it is hoped to Sc
cure the quota of $4,000 with which
to place the condition Of the Saliva
ton Army in Nevada on a firm finan-
cial footing and thus release the en-
tire energies Of the workers for their
service.
1t is hoped that the public will find
this an opportunity to show in a sub
stantial way their appreciation of the
devoted, and ofttimes heroic, human
ity that has characterized the Saliva
ton Army in both peace and war.
The drive will be started in Phoebe
tomorrow, Saturday, and everybody
is expected to do their share.

Nevada University
Banner Enrolment

Up to September 26 the enrolment
at the University OF Nevada was
larger than at the same date in the
university year 1886, the year of
greatest previous enrolment. Not
only is the total enrolment now $50
as compared with 357 at the same
date in 1915, but in two other nota-
BILE respects the present enrolment is
surprising
The present enrolment includes
only fifty-three specials and visitors,
whereas the 1915 roll included
eighty-four specials and visitors at
the same date. This means that now
the university has enrolled 307 stu
dents fully prepared for regular col
lege entrance, whereas at the same
date in 1915 only 2S3 such fully pre-
pared students were enrolled.
The second notable Improvement is
that the present enrolment registers
LAG regularly enrolled freshmen,
whereas the 1915 figures included
only 1O6 freshmen. It is especially
notable that 1O8 of the present 146
freshmen came to the university from
Nevada's own high schools. This
large freshmen enrolment, especially
large from the Nevada high schools,
seems fairly to promise for the uni
versity steadily increasing enroll
ment during the coming years.
The general contract for the new
School of Education building has
been awarded by the board Of regents
to Contractor e. X. Fowler of Reno.
Work has already begun. This gives
assurance that this new building, de-
signed by Architect DeLonchamps,
will be ready for use at the opening
of another university year. The beau
tiful Mackay mining building is be-
ing followed closely in architectural
type in this education building.
The campus employment commit
tee has placed sixty-three students in
part-time jobs for pay on the cam
pus. This is the second year of SER
vice by this committee and it's sue
cess is registered in the fact that
about SO per cent more Jobs are now
open to students on the campus than
were open in any year before 1918.

full terms concerning the act In .prOS'
OF this l wish to point from Catholic
authorities. In the book Faith OF our
Fathers" by Cardinal Gibbons We
read, "You may read the Bible from
Genesis to Revelation, and you will
not find a single line authorizing the
sancHfication Of Sunday" Again N
the Catholic Press Of Sidney Australia
under date OF Aug. Is, 1900 we read:
Sunday is Catholic institution, and
its claims to observance can be de-
pended only on Catholic principles"
do not blame the Catholics, who claim
Bible or tradition and accept the
church as Of equal authority with the
Bible, for, holding to the Sunday, but
it does seem to me that the Protestant
world who hold to the Bible and the
Bible only as their rule Of faith and
practice should either reject this insti-
tuition Of the Catholics church or re-
iect all Others"
A call was made at The close Of the
meeting for all who were willing to
ascribe to The following:
Accepting the Lord Jesus as my
Salvation, promise by his grace to
