Columbus Has Not Responded to
the Call Of Suffering Humanity

Columbus has not responded
to the call of suffering human
ity; to the call of little children
starving and falling by the way
side m Central Europe, children
suffering for lack of nourish-
ment.
No, we have fell far short Of
the Glory Of Our Maker in this
respect.
There is enough food wasted
at each meal in many homes to
save the life of a child in
Europe.
We should think of these
things and of our broad obliga-
ton to the human family. Truly,
we are our brothers keeper. But
we have fallen short of Biblical
injunction.
Last Saturday the Princess
Theatre gave q special morning
matinee for the benefit of suf-

was a mere bagatelle in COM

MEMBERSHIP TO
BE INFORMED OF
CHAMBERS WORK

Directors of the Chamber of Com
merce Thursday decided to adopt a
plan of informing the membership
of the organizations activities, and
every two months little bulletin
will be issued setting forth in CON
densed form just what is being ac-
complished by the Chamber.
The Chamber is active all the time
on various phases of community
work, and only the directors and the
working committees are in touch
with just what is being done.
The directors feel that the mem
bership is entitled to frequent re-
port of work, and for this, reason il
was decided to send out a condensed
statement every two months. This
statement will also be published in
the newspapers OF the city.
Members are urged to take part in
the organizations activities, to make
suggestions and offer criticisms
where criticism is deserved.
1t is impossible for person not
actively engaged in the work to have
fair and just appreciation of the
Chambers activities, and for this
reason it was decided to make freq
uent reports to the membership at
large.

REV. MALONE GETS
FLATTERING CALL
Call Comes 70 Him From Greenwood,
S. C.,--Definitely Declined
1t Yesterday.

Rev. f. L. Malone, rector Of ST.,
Paul's Episcopal church, yesterday
definitely declined a very flattering
call from the leading Episcopal
church at Greenwood, South Carolina.
The call came to Rev. Malone sew
eral days ago, but not until yester-
day did he definitely decide to de-
cline the call.
His declination of the call is the
unfeigned source Of much gratifica-
ton not only to the members of his
own congregation, but to the people
of Columbus generally. Mr.. Malone
is justly popular hn Columbus where
his activities in benevolence, civic and
religious works have been varied.

BIZARRE OCCASION

The masquerade at the Pastime

spectacle with scores and scores of
uniquely and attractively costumed
skaters on the floor.
There were costumes of all des-
criptions and nothing more could be
desired I'M the way of colorful variety

Skaters crowded the rink floor and
around the rails was a solid mass OF
spectators.
The prizes went to Mr.. Jack Sen

Each received a cash prize of SIS. Mr.
