EVERY CHRISTIAN
TO BE EVANGELIST
Personal Appeals to Non
Church Goer All Over Ma
ton in May.

The oldti revival, where the
preacher spent . week or two weeks
in evangelistic exhortation, is to be
replaced during May by the evangel
ism In which each Christian seeks to
exert his influence personally on some
one not an active church participant
From May 16 to % Protestant
church members in every community
in America will be asked to help In
this way in the eliminating effort OF
the intensified evangelistic program OF
the Interchurch World Movement,
which began before Easter.
In each locality the churches will
appoint committees of pastor and lay
men In each church, and each church
will have responsibility for a definite
portion OF the community in which to
place the appeal to the non-church
goer.
This Is to be done by personal visits.
There will be house to house vista
ton, so that everyone in the vicinity
Of the church will be given personal
Invitation.

CHURCH MAKES STUDY
OF THE LAND QUESTION

Ii the absentee landlord an asset
to the community where his property
lies, or should system of taxation
under the ownership of those who live
and work upon it? The Interchurch
| World Movement is seeking an answer
to that question
The church has found one Of it's
difficulties in a shifting population
Only where the residence of the in
habitants is fairly permanent can
church be built up on lasting basis.
One cause Of the shifting population
in farming sections is farm tenantry
The tenant often Is a temporary resi-
dent, while the owner of his land
frequently lives in distant town and
takes no part in the community life
where his property il.
So the church is studying the land
question. Questionnaires sent into
every county in the United States by
the Interchurch World Movement are
designed to supply facts as to the
proportion of tenants, the proportion
"a AoHN OVhO tuC PiObPCCtS vi lcu-
ants to become land owners, the ques-
ton of whether tenantry conserves
fertility of the soil as well as when
the farm is operated by the owner,
whether tenants families have lower
standard OF living, how far the shift
ing OF tenants from farm to farm In
terferes with membership and support |
of community institutions, what pro-
portion OF landlords have only 4 |
speculative interest in land values, |
whether the type Of lease prevalent in |
these localities is fair to both the
landlord and the tenant.
The question IL asked whether rent
cd farms should be taxed upon diff
ferent basis from those operated and
occupied by the owners, and whether
he Government should provide addi-
.ional credit for the purchase of land
by persons now tenants.

SEEK GREAT EUROPEAN FAIR
People Of Lyons, France, Want Gath
erino That Has Hitherto Been
MonopoIixed BY LeIpsic.


Edouard Heriot did not await
the end of the war to take such fit
ting measures as would not only es-
tablish the Lyons fair, but make il
the great fair of Europe. That is
his ambition. Lyons being, as he
points out, the junction of the great
European ways Of communication, is
entirely suited to hold the place
which Leipsic held in years gone by.
At the beginning of October, 1919,
the mayor Of Lyons had the satisfac-
ton of welcoming a number of nota-
bles come to attend the Inaugural
ton of the great fair which has sue
ceeded the brave attempt of the year
of war, 1915. Here in Lyons town
there assembled the Chinese and
Swedish ministers, the syndic OF
Rome, the burgomaster of Charleroi
and the master of port of Antwerp,
and in the animated town could be
seen running from the station to the
stands small train loaded with ex-
hibits sent by Czecho-Slovakia. 1t
is impossible to see such evidence of
pluck and go-aheadness on the part
of young and old nations alike with
out feeling convinced that old Eu-
rope is not by any manner of means
played out yet.-Christian Science

FLY ENEMY OF GYPSY MOTH.

A recent agricultural department
bulletin states that a parasitic fly,
Compsilura civcinnata, has been
used with great success to destroy
gypsy moth and brown-tail moth in
New England. 1t will also aid in
the control of other insect pests. A
few years ago the white-marked tus-
sock moth was serious pest in New
England, but has practically disap-
pcared since Compsilura became es-
tablished. The cabbage worm, the
celery worm and the fall webworm
have all been reduced by the activi-
ties OF the new parasite.
