forgotten the desperate situation from
which he had just escaped; he thought
only of Shirley Sunni er's face. tear
stained with terror, and because he
knew that at least some of those tears
had been inspired by the gravest ap-
prehensiOns as to his physical we'll
being, because in his ears there still
resounded her frantic warning, he
realized that however stern her decree
of Punishment had been, she was
nevertheless not Indifferent to him.
The climax had been reached-and
passed; and the result had been far
from the disaster he had painted in
his minds eye ever since the knowl-
edge had come to him that he was
doomed to battle to a knockout with
Colonel Pennington, and that one of
the earliest fruits of hoStilities would
doubtless be the loss of Shirley Sum-
ner's priced friendship. Well, he had
lost her friendship, but still small
voice whispered to him that the loss
was not rreparable-whereat he
swung his axe as bandmaster swings
his baton; he was glad that he had
started the war and was now free to
fight it ont unhampered.
Up hin and down dale he went.

stride brought him out into a clearing

GREATER PERILs ARE SEEN

Churches Issues Appeal.
fey Asso .ateo eress. !

New York, Aug. 2s. The church and
the pulpit were called upon to inter-
vene in strikes and try to compose the
differences between capital and labor
in a Labor Sunday Message issued
today by the Rev. Worth M. Tippy, ex-
ecutive secretary of the Social Service
Commission of the Federal Council of
the Churches of Christ in America
He declared that the church must
stand for the right of labor to organ
ize and take collective action under
proper restraints and safeguards for
public welfare and that the church
should not be prevented from taking
this step either by reactioIary en-
ployers or by "evils in ,1e labor
movement"
The Rev. Mr.. Tippy pointed out that
the nation had suffered tremendous
economic loss because OF the strikes
last year and that deeper perils lie in
threatened destruction of the spirit of
cooperation and good will between cap
ital and labor. The church watches
the deepening conflict with profound
concern" he continued TT cannot
stand aloof. At whatever risk of be-
coming involved in the controversy
it must go to the midst OF contending
forces, if possible betwen them. 1t
must bring to bear every ounce of in
fluence which it possesses to bring
these eontending groups together. and
to induce them to work out permanent
and effective means of cooperation"
He pointed out that there was need

ers and workers can get together and
keep together, so as to put heart and
power into production and give just
returns to both groups. IF no form
of labor organization is permitted and
if not only strikes but labor organiza-
tion itself is fought to a finish, there
appears no way out of our troubles,
but rather n deepening of them. We
shall have an autocratic mana cement
of industry on the one side and either
kind of serfdom on the other or a
militant, bitter and class conscious
organization of labor growing yearly
more revolutionary.

matter is not just what plan is fol-
lowed, but that the start is made. and
