Glad to Try Anything

March 3, in the Chamber OF Com
merce rooms.
In speaking of the drive. Chairman
Bender says:
This is not alone a matter of saw
ing the lives and lessening the mis-
cry OF the starving and prosecuted
in far-off lands. The question near
est home is. What is this Christian
nation, rolling in wealth and luxury
going TO do about It?
What is each individual Christian
going to do about it? What use is
the Church in America going to make
of this opportunity to demonstrate
her worth?
Our nation and the Church in
America are writing history today.
VIII coming generations point with
pride to the page marked A. d. 1920?
VIII the record of the sacrifices for
the suffering in the year 1920 com
pare with the blessings we enjoy? or
with the record OF the early Church?
of the record of our Pilgrim fathers?
or the patriots OF Valley Forge? or
with the sacrifices made by the pio-
ueer preachers and colporteurs who
endured the privations and hardships
of frontier life from the Atlantic to
the Pacific and who helped In so
large a measure to make this a Chris
ttan nation?
will the religion we profess gain
new lustre in the light Of the page
We are writing?
will IL be recorded in far-off lands
that America was ready to send all
needed supplies to save the dying as
she was to send her boys to protect
her own land? or shall it be recorded
that America poured out money like
water for destruction and for her own
protection until she thought danger
at home WAS passed and then she
forgot the starving peoples of the
she was fighting?
will the record of 1920 recon-
mend the religion we profess? VIII
coming generations of Americans
hastily turn the page or will they lin
ger in proud contemplation OF noble
deeds by worthy sires?
Above all we are writing a record
we shall be willing to face when we
are summoned into the presence of
the Great Judge who said He would
say to some Depart from me-for /
was an hungered and ye gave me no
meat naked and ye clothed me
not? (Math. 25.)

starving but also as messengers OF

1t was suggested that. inasmuch as
the country people could not attend
night meetings, the city members
plan for their own campaign. and the
country people TO be organized later
i'll the week by Paul H. Teal. county
agent.
Mr.. Bender then explained the OBJ.
ject OF the meeting. He reported
some contributions by churches made
earlier, and stated that such contri-
buttons would be credited to the
county. He stated that the county's
original quota was 1886, but could
not state the sum left after previous
credits had been applied.
A motion prevailed that the follow
ing plan for raising funds be adopt
ed: The ministers to preach on the
subject of the drive and each church
to assume the responsibility for a
house-to-house canvass in the district
assigned 1t during the recent relig-
ious census, churches to be free in
asking their young peoples societies
other organizations to assist in the
canyaSsing. The canvassing is to be
done simultaneously, no minimum
sum to be laid down for the various

sunday afternoon. March Z. the ser
mons to be delivered during tile same
day.
1t was decided to establish booths
for funds on Saturday the day prev
ious TO the drive.
A committee consisting OF Messrs.
Leo M. Bender, Chalmers kilmer and
Gilbert c. Mckown was appointed to
confer with the ladies committee. of
which Mrs. c. w. Link is chairman,
