ing the week every member OF the
church will rally to the flag OF the
cross through the call of Methodism
and given Of their time, energy and
pocketbooks to the raising of fund
Of S35,000,O0O. Every dollar of the
money raised will be spent in mission
airy work, both at home and abroad,
ten million being turned back into the
upbuilding Of churches, schools and
hospitals in the South. A large part OF
this sum will go towards increasing
the salaries Of the ministers of the ru-
raj churches, particularly those who
have been working against great diff.
culties in the matter Of taking care of
circuits containing number OF
churches.
The Centenary movement Of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, South,
not only means increased salaries for
the pastors in the rural districts but
also the establishment of mission
schools in many. inaccessible and
needy communities Of the country Es-
pecial effort will be made to awaken
the laymen of the church everywhere
so that in those churches where min
lister cannot preach every Sunday
there will be1a service just the same.

dists everywhere have towards their
church 1t is believed that, even though

OUR RELATIONS WITH
GREAT BRITAIN JARRED
Senator Knox Resolutions and Senate
Speeches Are Published in Lon
don Papers With Comment.

London.-Reading the British press
shows plainly that the relations be-
tween Great Britain and America are
being strained. The senate speeches,
the Knox resolutions against the
league of nations and the report OF
the American mission which investi>
gated the Sim Fein were published
Saturday. Even the radical press, that
has fought Ireland's battles for a gen.
Grafton, can not support the American
indictment of English rule without
many qualifications and reservations.
Americans should understand clearly
that they are endangering seriously
good relations with Great Britain by
dragging her into their international
political disputes. While close stu
dents of American affairs appraise the
attacks at their true value, it is well
to remember that the great masses are
ignorant of American politics and that
grave misunderstanding develop very
quickly when conditions generally are
unstable.
