CHURCHES
GET HILLS LECTURES
Famous Better America" Picture
Lectures to BE Given for Benefit
of Public-First Sunday
Evening

The Federated church has secured
TIE series of famous picture lectures
covering Better America" subjects
prepared by Newell Dwight Hills,
and will present the series of 10 lee
lures each Sunday evening, at I
O clock, commencing next Sunday.
The subjects include topics of great
interest to every citizen, and it IS
hoped by the church that all who
can do so will avail themselves Of
the opportunity presented to gain an
insight into the great problems of
the day.
In presenting the picture-lectures
to the public Hills said:
The problems that confront the
American people today are the prob
lens OF selfishness. No institutions
are safe when handled by several mil
lions who think that mere money is
alone worth while, and who trample
under foot all laws The first duty
Of the hour is the training of the in
tellect and the conscience OF the peo-
pie. With a better quality of man
hood, our tools, our factories, our
laws, and our liberties will take care
OF themselves. These lectures on A
Better America were written under
the conviction that even boys and
girls, so constituted by God as to I'M
derstand the greater things of the
Ten Commandments and obedience to
Gods laws, are also fully competent
t. understand life's lesser facts, that
have to do with work, wages, prop
erty and national prosperity"
The subjects of the 10 picture-lec-
lures, with the date for each, fol
lows:
Jan. 9-"How Ability Increases the
Workers Wage and the Nation 5
Wealth"
Jan. 16-''The Loyal Glasses Who
Build the State and Enemies Who
Undermine It."
Jan. 23-" Sanctity of Property as
the Logical Inference from the Sane
tity of Life"

cuse for Poverty in the United
States

aid yet are not receiving il was one
OF the points brought out at Tues
day nights meeting of Maynard

of federal and American Legion Of

tion of the hospitals of the state in
the interests of the service men, all
Of whom made interesting talks deal
ing with their own particular inter-
est in the work
George II. Lewis, chairman of the
state capitalization board of the Le-
gion, stated that 641,000 service
men were granted discharges with
disability clauses attached, and 1885,
600 were adiudged 10 per cent dis
abled. OF this number but 10000
have requested and been granted
compensation by the federal govern
ment He urged the point that many
service men, as was the case of those
in Spokane are not aware that they
are entitled to hospital compensation
and stated that one of the objects OF
the tour of the group is to locate
these cases and take the steps neces-
sary to obtain federal aid.
Approximately 5000 service men
are admitted to the hospitals Of the
country each month, while but $500
are discharged, leaving a tremendous
net gain in service patients. These
are for the greater part tuberculosis
and insanity cases, the result of shell
shock and gas poisoning
In the absence of State Commander
Swales Colonel Albert commander of
the Spokane post, represented the
state commanders office He stat
&c that rehabilitation is one of the
first aims OF the American Legion;
urged the observance of all national
holidays and went on record as favor
able to a compensation act by con
gress, not necessarily money, but az
ricultural lands or other assistance.
He urged that the various posts take
al active part in all community bet
terment work and called upon all ex-
service employees to give 100 per cent
efficiency in their work,
