lays Has a Great Church Project


Conventional churches are not I'M
Common but Hays has a church that
IS not conventional It is preparing
to do large social service besides
providing for the usual accepted re-
hgious functions of the church. Hays
has rapidly growing Normal School
and a rapidly increasing resident
population. For these reasons both
fhe housing facilities for students and
the church accommodations are being
outgrown. The Methodist Episcopal
church was the first to recognize a
new responsibility and the result is a
$275,0O0 project. The proposed plans
call for an open court plant and viii
include an auditorium 80 feet by 100
feet, a Hall of Residence ITO feet by
40 feet, three stories high and social
center parlOrs 120 feet by 40 feet.
The auditorium will provide for the
usual church services The Hall of
Residence will provide rooms for $50
women students of the Fort Hays
Normal School under the administra-
ton of Christian influences. The
social center parlors will take care of
the social life of the church, the Nor
NAL School and the community. In
the Easements there will be laundry
facilities for the students, swimming
pool, gymnasium, Sunday School
rooms, banquet rooms and kitchens.
Of the $275,OO for the proposed
plant the Centenary fund has contrib
uted $4,000 and the Northwest Kan
sas Conference $4,000. This leaves
the local church to raise S125, 900.
OF course the local membership could
easily raise the funds necessary to
build itself church but the subsidiary
feature calls for sum far out of pro-
portion to the size of the local con-
gregation. Fortunately the Hall of
Residence feature and the social
equipment is making a tremendous
appeal and the local community with
out regard to denomination is con-
tributing. The students of the Nor
NAL School have program that calls
for $4,000 in contributions. Alumni
and former students of the Fort Hays
Kansas Normal School are responding
literally. However, no part of the
work will be undertaken until the
local church has 100000 pledged
and all pledges are so worded that
none are valid unless the full $780,
900 is subscribed by December 81.
Two weeks ago the campaign was
started and already $4,000 is
pledged. There is scarcely more than
week left and the question on the
lips of everyone is "Can they make
it?" The Hall of Residence feature
has tremendous pull for the people
of Wstern Kansas because it means
good housing for the girls of Western
Kansas who attend the Fort Hays
Normal. Commercial bodies in Rus
sell and other western cities are call
ing meetings and considering the
proposition. All signs point to sue
cess in this unique church project.

READING HOPEFUL
 LEAGUE WILL WIN

MANCHESTER, Eng. Lord Reading, lord chief justice of Eng land and former ambassador to the United States, talks hopefully of the prospects of League of Nations.
 Whether the league becomes weapon for the preservation of peace, or whether it withers and dies does not depend upon the gov ernment, on statesmen or politi- clans, but upon the peoples of the member countries" he told the Man chester Chamber of Commerce. "In time to come, if the public of the various countries will put their heart and soul into it, we may eventually arrive at a stage when war might be regarded as a thing of the past"
 Lord Reading said the words of Washington's farewell address were treasured by the American people "as perhaps never had words of man been treasured" This he cited as illustrating the very strong conserva- tive traditions of the United States, which he asked his audience to take into account in considering the pres ent American attitude toward the league.

SWEDISH PRINCE TO SPEND
 A YEAR IN HONDURAS

STOCKHOLM. - Prince William of Sweden, second son of the king, some time ago. left Stockholm, ac- companied by four of his friends, for Honduras. He intends to spend about year in studying its geogra- phy and ethnography.
 Prince William is a very interest ing personality. He was brought up on the sea, joining the Swedish navy as a cadet when only twelve years of age His tutors had strict instructions that no consideration should be shown him because of his royal birth, that he should be made to work just as though he were d plain everyday boy. .....
 The sailor prince is a poet, a thorough sportsman, and as a golfer has scarcely his equal in Sweden.

GERMANY IS BUSY
 INITIATING CREDIT

BERLIN.-Germany's paper mon ey now in circulation amounts to sixty billion marks, and is increas- ing by one billion marks a week, declares August Mueller, former minister of economies.
 The printing of banknotes is the only fourishing industry in Ger many today, he writes in an article in the Abendblatt. He attributes this activity in printing of money to government subsidies undertaken in vain effort to reduce the prices of food, and also to the continual increasing of salaries "to an absurd ly growing officialdom who find next day they are no better off, owing to the overnight decline of the buy ing power of the paper mark"
 Germany's indebtedness, says Herr Mueller, is now about two hundred and thirty billion marks. This, he adds, is, perhaps, redeemable at the present low value of the mark, but never if it recovers even half its former value.
 Herr Mueller is unable to see a remedy except in increasing produc- tion, which, he says, seems to pre- occupy the present rulers of Ger many less than the anxiety to keep in office,

ion yesterday and decided to open the

WILLIAM cHILES DIES.

= The people of Abbeville were griev-
ed today to hear of the sudden death
cf William Chiles. of Greenwood. Mr..
Chiles was business man of that
place. Yesterday he walked through
dark hallway in his place. of busi-
ness on the way to lavatory. The
hallway had as floor at one point
an old elevator, the elevator floor
being level with the floor of the hall.
Someone had let the elevator down
Saturday, or it had gone down itself.
On account of the darkness Mr.. Chiles
did not notice that the elevtor shaft
was open and fell through it, receiv-
ing injuries which proved fatal.
At first he did not think he was Sc
riously hurt, it seems. He walked out
of the store and to his home but af-
ter reaching there he became sudden
ly i'll from the. injuries received and
soon died.
Mr.. Chiles was a son of John H.
Chiles, of Troy. His mother iwas a
Miss Thomson, of Abbeville, a sister
of DR.. S. G. Thomson and of Mr.. T.
P. Thomson, of this place. They have
gone to Troy today to attend the fun
