CHURCH INTEREST
Industrial Leaders at Confer.
ence Concerned in Promot-
ing Better Relations.

NEW YORK. N. Y, November 26.-
The growing interest Of Industrial
leaders in the effort Of the churches
to promote better relations was eff
fectively illustrated in a recent con-
ference here. held at the invitation
Of the Federal Council OF Churches
of Christ in America. The confer
ence brought together about seventy
employers from various parts of the
country. who spent the whole day
considering the function of the
church in connection with modern
industrial life.
Themes Up for Discussion.
A discussion of the theme, What
Are the Christian Principles to Be
Applied to Industry and What 10
Their Practical Meaning" was held.
There was a general consensus of
opinion that although it is not easy
to define Just what the function OF
the church should be, 1t must take a
constant interest in the human side
of every industrial and economic
question. At one of the sessions a
discussion of the question What
the Wages of the Lowest Paid Work
ers Relatively to the Cost Of Living?"
took place. In connection with this
topic a widely-quoted paper was pre-
sented by Prof. William F. Ogburn
Of Columbia University, formerly
chairman of the cost of living de-
partment of the United States War
Labor Board. The conclusion of
Prof. OGburn's paper was that, al

though wholesale prices have come
down about As per cent from the
peak reached under wartime condi-
tions. the retail prices, which de-
termine the cost of living for the
average man, have declined only
1S per cent. The speaker advocated
the use of research into cost of llV-
ing in every industry in connection
with fixing wages and stated that to
do this is comparatively simple and
inexpensive. William f. McLennan
OF Buffalo followed on the effect of
low wages on the families of work.
ingmen.
Talks of Unemployment Insurance.
B. Seebohm Rowntree of York, Pa.
discussed chiefly the experience of
British employers with unemploy-
ment insurance. He declared that the
plan of unemployment insurance, in
accordance with which the employer
and employees join in building up a
reserve fund to pay part-time wages
during the period of enforced unem-
ployment, had a notable effect in
and labor and that to make such pro-
vision for securing the workers
against the disastrous consequences
of unemployment was not simply in
accordance with Christian principles.

employment insurance, but urged
especially that sinking funds be
established by national industries, or
by individual corporations. His own
corporation sets aside $4,000 as
sinking fund which has never yet
been touched. The company has found
that / per cent of the wage bill is
sufficient to meet its unemployment
in this trying period, and it anti
cipates that one eighth of l per cent
will meet ordinary times.

ASKS INJUNCTION
TO KEEP CHICKENS
OUT OF HIS YARD

ROME, Feb. 18.-A petition has
been filed by J. L. Hicks, in Floyd
Superior court for an injunction
asking Judge Wright to keep Bud
and Madge Hicks from allowing
their chickens to eat the growing
crops on the Bolts farm in Chulio
district. The chickens seem to
have felt that spring with all its
alluring enticements to roam had
already reached the Chulio district.
Mr.. Bolts tells the court that he.
has frequently but vainly urged the
Hicks folks to keep their chick
ems on their own premises, but
instead they-the chickens-eat
the growing Bolts crops on the
Bolts premises.
Judge Wright has set Saturday
morning at the time for hearing
about the perverse chickens and IN
the meantime if they insist on eat
ing they must eat in their own back
yards or be cited for contempt of
court.

COLDEST WAVE OF
WINTER ON Way
To Hit Eastern Section
Next Week, Says
Weather Bureau e.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 18. - The
coldest weather of the winter prob
ably may be expected over much of
the country east of the Rockies dur
ing the next week, the Weather Bu-
reau announced today in special
bulletin.
The foregoing dispatch by the As
sciated Press will be received with
discomfort by peach orchard owners
of Georgia, although it is possible the
cold wave, as is often the case, may
diminish as it moves eastward until
it will have small effect in this sec
tion. Sumter county peaches have
been in full bloom for several days,
and now are in their tenderest stage.
Even severe frost could easily do
great damage.
"The trees are fully 20 days ahead
of last year." said W. o. Easter
lin, of Easterlin Brothers, extensive
peach growers of Andersonville Sec
ton, today. "If the cold weather
holds off and we can make crop it
will be the earliest crop in the history
of peach growing in Georgia"

Columbus Rotarians s
Give $4,000 To Re-
lief Fund

ATLANTA, Feb. 18.-To the Ro-
tary Club of Columbus goes the
honor of raisiEg the largest amount
of any single organization in Geor-
gia for the great American fund to
save 3,500,000( European children
from starvation.
The Columbus Rotarians, taking
active charge of the campaign in
their city, obtained contributions
amounting to $3,009.50, and H. R.
McClatchey, secretary of the club,
has sent his check for that amount to
E. Marvin Underwood, state chair
man for Georgia.
"The work of the Columbus Rotary
club is one of the finest things in the
whole campaign, in Georgia, OF else
where" said Chairman Underwood
today. "They have the thanks not
only of the Georgia committee, but
of Herbert Hoover, the national
chairman. and all his associates at
national headquarters"
The Columbus contribution will
feed three hundred starving children
of Europe until the next harvest,
when it is estimated that their own
governments will be able to keep
them going.
Numerous other Rotary clubs in
Georgia are taking an active inter
est in the European relief campaign,
and it is hoped and expected that
their efforts will be enormously stim-
ulated by the example of the club in
Columbus.
Chairman Underwood announced
today that practically half of the
S33,O00,000 fund undertaken in
America has been raised, and that
a steady stream of contributions in
Georgia is lifting this state, day by
: day, nearer and nearer to its goal.

Brother Jonathan
In looking over this paper one
will find number of interesting
pictures of battles between the
Mexican army and United States
troops. There are also number
of battle hymns which were sung
by the Mexican army and several
that were used by the U. S. army.
But perhaps the most interesting
that will be noted is the fact that
it contains a number of war sto-
ries which teach good morals.
