Winona Lake, Ind, Aug. 3l-Declar-
ing evangelization is the greatest trust
of the church at the present time, O.
E. Hamilton, Mountain Grove, Mo-,
president of the National Evangelistic
Association OF Disciples of Christ, in
an address here yesterday before the
association convention, urged less at
tention be paid BY church organiza-
tions to monetary campaigns. and
more thought be given to what he
termed the life appeal"
In voicing an appeal for a great
observance of the Sabbath. the speaker
spoke in favor of an organized, ma
tion wide propaganda for the five and
one-half day week for all classes of
labor. A half-holiday each week, he
argued, would give people an oppor-
tunity for more recreation and would
thereby bring many to church who
now spend the Sabbath in recreations
the present system does not permit on
