BAPTIST NEED
MISSIONARIES
Few Young Men Willing to
Take Up Work, Conven-
ton Speakers Say
FEW INTERESTED
IN INDIANS

In addressing the conference Of
the General Board OF Promotion Of
the Northern Baptist Convention. in
session In Second Baptist Church
yesterday afternoon. the Rev. Bruce
Kinney. joint division secretary OF
the American Home Missionary So
ciety, stationed west Of the Missis-
sippi River said 1.-THE trouble with
our church people is that they do
not want their children TO become
missionaries"
The work Of the Baptist Church
among the Indians on tho Western
reservations and in Mexico is "a
disgrace" said Mr.. Kinney He
attributes this TO the lack Of inter
est which many are showing in the
work. and tho gradual lessening
number Of missionaries sent out into
the field to- do the work.
on Nevada reservations alone
there are fully 5000 Indians. the
speaker said. and the only mission
aries out there are those sent by the
Baptist Church. The lack of educa-
ton among the tribes was deplored
by Mr.. Kinney.
This conference, which was ad-
dressed by missionaries from East
and West China. Burma. Assam,
Japan and the Philippines, is one Of
the many which will be held in thir-
ty-eight States and the District or
Columbia from January 80 to March
80. The object Of these conferences
Is to explain how the money fur
nished the American Baptist Home
| Missionary Society is used.
Among the others who spoke were
Rev. Frederick W. Stait. a former
/ British soldier in India, who has
been doing missionary work FOR
about ten years; Rev. r. y. Craw-
ford. who is attached TO a mission

last night when asked about the

should say the charter draft was
final without reserving the right to
suggest changes after more time had

today when workers OF the Citizens

about the city urging support for
the measure. The "stickers" are

Army Officers Well Satisfied
With Quality of State

THREE COMPANIES
UP TO STRENGTH

In the recruiting OF its national
guard quota, Delaware is making "a
much better record than the larger
States. according to army officers
who have mustered in the local
units. Tho officers have also COM
iimonted the local national guard
officers on the calibre OF men en-
listed here.
OF the men who have enlisted so
far. fully ninety per cent. are
former service men.
Three of the local companies have
been enlisted up TO fun peace
strength. Companies a, G and I,
and the fourth company has about
sixty per cent. Of It's quota.
The Tank Corps which IS being
organized In New Castle. reports a
20 per cent strength. and expects to
stop enlistment on March /. The
company In Newark reports fifty per
! cent of its strength enlisted.
When the work of reorganization
was begun. the officers estimated
that II would take at least a year tc
complete the work. but In less thar
three months they have succeeded
In onlisting sevcnty-fve per cent OF
the Guards allotted strength. IL Be-
now expected that In less than 81,
months. the entire regiment. includ.
ing headquarters. will have been re-
cruited, which is feat very Few
States can boast.

manufacturers of milk products. 1t is
controversy in which the outsider is
interested because he must play the
role Of consumer. Apparently there
are extravagances on both sides. Few

DO NOT OPPOSE NATURE

Scarcely anything on the farm is
more distressing to view than lot of
hens going into cold weather without
enough feathers to keep them warm
1t is much like a man wearing palm
beach suit with snow on the ground
and trying to seem unconcerned about
= it, or the chap who leaves off his over
coat in zero weather to harden him
self-so he says.
Forcing the Mott Unwise.
But there doesn't seem to be any
help for the unhappy poultry minus
their winter clothing Much was said
a few years ago about forcing the
melting of hens, controlling it, and so
arranging things generally that the
hen would get back on the job of lay
ing eggs with less delay. An expert
enced New York poultryman declared
he had solved the problem by cutting
down very materially the hens ra-
tions for several days. This was fol-
lowed by heavier feeding than ordi-
narily. The menu, or the lack of it,
stopped laying, and often resulted in
melting at once.
The results were not SO satisfactory
as had been hoped. In many cases
the hens did not finish the mott much,
If any, quicker than If they had been
let alone. 1t didn't seem possible by
this means to control the time at
which the hens could be brought back
to laying. Egg production could be
stopped all right, but it couldn't be re-
sumed any earlier than usual, and
sometimes it looked as if it had been
stopped permanently. Obviously, this
wouldn't do.
One of the chief attractions of poul-
try raising is constant supply of
eggs, let the feathers fall when they
may So it is not advisable for any
one to try systems that work in con-
f1ict with Nature, who seems to have
