Velvet is made for men who think there's

Velvet was born in old Kentucky, where
more than one good thing comes from. 1t was
raised as carefully as any othe1 Kentucky
thoroughbred. But the real secret of Velvers
friendly qualities is its slow natural ageing in
wooden hogsheads. Ageing in the wood
never hurt anything-and least of all, tobacco.
And so we say, Velvet is good tobacco

PLAN BIG COMMUNITY HOUSE

A plan for a community house to
cost with its equipment nearly $780,
600 in connection with the work Of
the Western Theological seminary, Is
one of the chief details of the budget
approved for the Chicago diocese in
connection with the nationwide cam
paign of the Episcopal church. The
seminary is known throughout the
United States for the number and
value of clergymen it sends out an
nually. The new community house
will be of interest, not only to the So
cial workers in the great slum districts
of Chicago, but to every community~in
the country in that it will give the can
didates for Holy Orders much prac'
teal insight and experience into this
phase of the great work for the
church for which they are studying.

Bishop James Wise of the Episcopal
diocese Of KANSAS is the leading a0vo-
cate of advertising in his church
Bishop Wise has announced emphati-
cally that the press should be a great
medium for the message Of Christiani-
ty and that churches should advertise
their services as intelligently and per
gistently as a merchant advertises his
wares. The bishop was member of
the press committee at the triennial
general convention of the church in
Detroit and since then has been tour
ing the middle West speaking in the
interest of the Episcopal church's ma
tion-wide campaign.
TO carry out his ideas, Bishop Wise
early inaugurated church advertising
throughout his diocese, and as a result
was able to inform the communicates
concerning the progress of the churchs
nationwide campaign when it was pro-
posed TO launch one big movement TO
provide men, women and funds for the
expansion and extension of all the
Episcopal church's activities, especial
~ missions, religious education and So
cial service.

lover go Per Cent Growth.

An interesting sidelight on the ma
tion-wide campaign of the Episcopal
church is contained in the budget of
the Chicago diocese just completed. In
explaining the purposes to which the
fund Of $502, AIS a year sought there
for the next three years. is to be put,
It is pointed out that less than l per
cent of this amount is to be used for
debts "and this upon conditions which
require a fourfold reciprocity on the
part of the benefclaries."
