sution for Medina in the past. Peo-
lie who knew of the controversy were
wing in hopes that the matter would
settled by the erection of a second
N lndry, and the two classes of work
nufactured. That would have
doubled the capacity Of the foundry
and given both factions just the
product desired. But the split ma
terialized last week and now Mr.. Mil
Ter is out Of it. A change from large
product Of heavy castings at good
price and cash monthly, to smaller
product at a largely increased per cent
of cost and a wait Of nine months
for the money, is not likely to ma
terially increase the dividends. Every
well meaning Medina citizen will re-
joice TO see the foundry proposition
weather this little tempest in the tea
pot, at the same time holding a men,
tai reservation that it has been un-
necessary.

o. S. U. GLEE CLUB
/ COMING TO medina
Best Glee Club in Middle West
Boys to be entertained in
Medina Homes - Go Early,
No Reserved Seats.
DATE IS WE'D, JAN. %;
AT THE CONG. CHURCH

o. S. u. glee club is coming to Me-
dina for a concert. The date has beer
set for Wednesday evening, Jan. 28
and the concert will be given in the
congregational church. The club has
a membership of 60, 81 of which are
hang-overs from the class Of 1919
and 36 Of that 81 were boys who
were in service overseas.
In addition to numbers by the full
membership of the club, solos, duets
trios and quartets, a special feature
of the work is that of what is calico
the "syncopated sextet," this last re-
ported as very fine. The organiza,
ton has done some very conscientious
work in preparation for, the winter
trip, and the club is said to be at its
best. .t.a a
The Community entertainment com.
mittee was offered the opportunity o1
bringingsthis organization to Medina
thus profting by the success Of the
concert. But when it did not care to
incur the expense and undertake the
work the High school boys and girls
coached by L. H. Randall, accepted
the opportunity. The benefits, and
they should be large, will 60 to swell
the gym equipment fund Of the High
school; and present plans contemplate
the use Of this money for the equip.
ment Of the new gym in the Soldiers
Memorial Community House when, il
is ready for the installation Of this
equipment. y
As the concert will come in the va
cation period it is expected that every
Medina student at @. S. U. will come
home and organize sleigh ride parties
TO come to Medina for this concert
Alumnus Of the university over the
county, too, are expected to organize
similar parties and aid in swelling
the attendance. Managers of the plan
assure us that the Congregational au-
ditorium should be filled to overflow
ing to enjoy this great musical or
ganization.
Tickets will be SOC with no reserve
privilege. High and Grammar school
boys will sell tickets and each one
selling 10 will be given a ticket free
An alumnus who cannot attend can
buy ticket, or if none are offered
him he can send his Soc or 81 to the
committee.
Certain people have asked the ques-
tain if this will not interfere with the
w. r. U. glee club concert in Feb
ruary. The w. r. U. concert is not
till April, some three months later
and the 0. S. U. concert should in nc
way conflict.
The go boys and the two or three
managers who travel with them are
to be entertained in the homes OF
willing citizens. Already over hall
of the boys have been spoken for by
patriotic Medinaites.
The divisions Of the glee club are
as follows: there are fourteen first
tenors; nine second tenors; nineteen
baritones and ten bassos.

CHURCH CONDITIONS
AS They NOW EXIST;
WHAT IS TO COME I!
Paul Bellamy Quotes From
Many Critics, All of Them
Friendly to The Institution
as a Whole.
A PICKING AT. SMALL.
THINGS WONT SAVE IT

Local conditions and the acts of
certain local men have led the editor
Of the Sentinel to occasionally print
criticism Of church conditions in
Medina. Certain men grounded in
the faith" have taken exception to
statements as printed, intimating
that they were unfair or at least un-
advised. But substantiating our own
statements Saturdays Plain Dealer
printed an article from the pen of
Paul Bellamy from which we print
excerpts to show to Medina people
that we are not alone in our conten-
tions, and to indicate to them that
what we have printed is a matter of
news and not of pique Mr.. Bellamy
says: ia,
In America as we'll as in England,
the people who believe that the Prot
estant church faces a crisis are num-
bered by the thousands.
This opinion is by no means con-
fined wholly to atheists, unbelievers,
and the unchurched.
Many thoughtful leaders of Prot
estantism, while believing that the
church will pull through, feel that
changes to meet new conditions must
be made and made quickly.
There is no Congregationalist more
honored than DR.. Lyman Abbott,
editor Of the Outlook. In New York
the other day he said:
"Churchianity is failing; Christian
ity is advancing"
Here are a few criticisms from the
pens Of other men who are not an
tagonistic to the church as an institu-
ton:
"Church members are Pharisees
They adopt a holier than thou atti-
tude. They are complacent. They
90 not carry the doctrines of Jesus
into their daily lives. They lack
charity toward sinners. \ Y
"The church is narrow and bigoted
"The church is fighting losing
battle with science by holding to Q
literal Interpretation Of the Scrip.
lures.
"The church is, capitalistic and
lends itself as the tool of the EN-.
ployer in labors fight for place in
the sun. r. q W
"The church is out of touch with
reality; it is trying to apply princi-
pies of antiquity to problems Of the
present day.
"The church is daily exercising less
influence in the world and must con.
tinue to do so."
/ All of which bears out the Sentine]
editors contention that the church
leaders are prone to set up a straw
man and then turn in and "kick the
stuffin' out of it;| to pick out some
form Of amusement that the men who
are intending to make a fight don't
care for or are too crippled to enjoy
and then characterize it as Satan OF
one OF his agencies and then strive
to cruelty every one who won't agree
with them and make fight against
it.

WORK KINGS DAUGHTERS
FOR "ORPHAN" SUPPORT

One French "orphan" is likely to
lose its graft shortly. It is a case of
the "orphan" being supported by the
charitably inclined Kings Daughters
Of the Baptist church. This organiza-
tion has been doing a noble work,
even if it's funds have been going to
some one not in need. ..
Recently an investigation was set
on foot that has convinced the know
ing ones in the organization that in
stead of the "orphan" being in reality
an orphan, and in need, she is in fact
a woman who owns and operates a
confectionery with substantial in
come. Prospects are good that this
orphan will lose it's foster mother"
