The emphasis throughout the Con
ference in this, as in other years,
will rest upon the responsibility
of each one to use his life in the
unselfish service Of others. Dur
ing the sessions at Grand Rapids
there will be a number of life
work conferences" when the var
ious special Christian vocations
will be presented in the light of
avenues for the service of man.

FROM A DIFFERENT ANGLE

Had the board of supervisors at
their meeting at the county seat
passed resolution suggesting to
the ruling power of the state that
they eliminate about so per cent
of the Office holders in state posi-
tions that are apparently more or
namental than useful, they would
have received the commentator
of a large body of taxpayers.
Whether the state police are
really necessary and successful
appendage of our state govern
ment, the fact remains, neverthe-
less, that the citizens of the state
particularly in the rural sections
are inadequately protected from
the depredations of the numerous
bands of thieves and robbers that
are committing serious crimes in
various sections of the state and
getting away with. it. With the
suspension of. labor In our large
manufacturing centers, the prob
abilities are that crime will be ON
the increase during the coming
year.-Marlette Leader.

A REPLY TO REV. J.
MELLING'S CHALLENGE

We, the undersigned, beg to in-
form Rev. j. Melting that we ac-
cept his challenge of $1,000. His
article which appeared in the
Expositor was so vague and in
definite that we were compelled
to consult him as to what he real
ly did make reference.
We were informed that he made
reference to a certain leaflet, put
out by the Public School De-
fense League" These were not
distributed secretly" but in at
least four or FIVE public services,
which had been previously an
nounced. The Protestants did not
make any house to house canvass
with their literature or place it
in rural mail boxes without pos
tage. This leaflet did not SANDER
Catholics, it stated facts and de-
clared principles, why the public
school should be the one school of
America. The facts which it stat
ed can be substantiated and con-
clusively proven.
Rev. J. Melting raises the ques-
ton as to the authenticity of the
leaflet, therefore he should as
sumo the burden and responsible
ity of proving that it is not au-
thentic. However, if he will de-
posit his $1,000 in one of the local
banks, making an affidavit with
the deposit, we will assume the
burden and responsibility of es-
tablishing the facts by prepon-
derance of evidence. We suggest
that the officers Of the bank, the
city council, or the city school
board should decide as to whether
we succeeded or not. Surely
Rev. j. Melting would not expect
to act as judge and jury in the
case.
Jeremiah j. Crowley, in his
book, "The Parochial School a
Curse to the Church and Men
ace to the Nation" made the most
terrific arraignment of the Cath
olic hierarchy and charges
against the parochial school. In
his book he has made accusations
and charges against bishops, pre-
klates and popes. He has stand
ing offer of $4,000 as a challenge
to Rome if they can prove that the
charges are false and the state
ments untrue.
viii Rev. j. Melting accept his
challenge ? If not, why not
In conclusion, we have not
worked secretly nor stated slam
derous falsehoods. but have stood
for the Protestant faith and de-
Tended the public school. This
may not be christianity, accord.
