Conservation and Advance. at the
stewardship meeting preliminary to
conference last night. Had Amer
ica responded with the usual offer
ing four years ago, when President
Wilson called for sons. daughters
and contributions. We should now be
the abject servants Of an arrogant
war lord II was the unparalleled
Offering Of unanimous citizenship
which saved civilization. and only a
new and unusual citizenship OF the
Christian Discipleship will save the
world.
The remark a lie centenary
achievement OF the Methodist church
was made possible only by the prin-
ciple Of Christian Stewardship. This
principle suggests, among other
things. that every Christian set aside
a definite proportion Of his income
usually not less than a tenth, for
benevolent purposes. including the
local church and its foreign and
home missionary enterprises. The
centenary Offering OF S1O6.600. 600
totalled seven time the former av-
erage annual giving to benevolent
causes. and IL is believed that at least
forty per cent. OF this offering was
due less to the great financial drive
than TO the silent influence OF Chris
tian Stewardship. One New Eng
land pastor reports that his Sunday
school collections have increased
from an average OF one cent to an
average Of twenty-five cents per
/ scholar. While another minister re-
ports the benevolent offerings of his
church multiplied ten-fold.
III every Methodist were giving a
tenth OF his income TO the church
we should have for religious pur-
noses at least five times the amount
we have today. America alone
owns quarter Of the worlds wealth
Government reports show that Meth
odist people receive an annual in
come OF at least 100000, 200. 4

as much as we give TO religion. anC
ten times more than we pay TO th'

Delaware are dissatisfied over the
way they have been treated by the
Legislature. They point out that
practically everything that the wo-
men asked for was either consider
ably cut or not granted at all. They
are insisting that their original re-
quest Of an appropriation OF 100000
a year be taken care OF in the gem

other way.
Since counting up all prospective
appropriations IL Is said that there
will likely be a considerable sum left

DOVER. Del. March 3O.-Condi-
tions with fruit and early vegetation
in Kent county as the result OF
Monday nights hail and freeze has
not changed much. according TO the
larger growers.
J. l.. Soper. OF Magnolia. claims
that practically the same condition
exists today that existed yesterday
with peaches and pears almost COM
pletely gone. He feels that many
OF the apple trees are safe after a
thorough investigation today OF his
orchards.
j. A. Frear states that peaches
and early apples are practically all
dead. and ne has fears about straw
berries.
At the Henry Ridgely farm near
Dover reports show that peaches are
gone and that no more damage
could be done than was done Mon
day night
+. c.. Bancroft feels that addition
al damage was done by last nights
frost and that while It is dimcult to
estimate just what percentage OF
fruit Is killed indications point to a
strong presumption that the larger
percentage has been killed.
Al the Frank r. Maloney farm,
adjoining the large Soper and Terry
orchards they express the belief
that not much more damage has
been done than on Monday night.
Grapes are about one-half 10
three-quarters killed. growers say
