GREAT BENEFITS
OF ALIVE WV. CA.
Mrs. Brian S. Brown Tells What
Such an Organization Has
Done and Tells of Many In
cidents.

When 1 look back on my college
days l remember the =. W. c. A.
with feeling of gratitude A com
mittee of the "Y. W" girls met me
at the depot the day reached col
lege, took me to my room, introduced
me to the faculty, and helped me
work out my schedule. Because of
their many acts of thoughtful kind
ness managed to get through those
surging waves of inconsistencies
which every freshman feels So keen
lly. AS a result of this friendliness
and sincere cooperation the new
girls" soon felt the college to be a
home.
The prayer and study circles were
constant Source of blessings, turn
ing our thoughts toward the spiritual
as well as the intellectual struggle
and growth, and inspiring US to live
life of faith.
Permit me one Renaissance: There
was at Randolph-Macon an old pro
fessor, man of God, who prayed,
"Help US not to forget, o Lord, that
a SHINING, suffering and sorrowing
world lies around u.s." Whatever
else he prayed he always added this
to, and it puzzled me. Surely" !
treasured myself, '1ife cannot be as
bad as all that~ l was one of a
large number of girls, who, sheltered.
guided and loved, We're like SO many
plants growing in a green house; the
storms were On the outside.
Then the City Association. If I
had today a, sum of money to give
TO the Y. w. C. A, would give one
third to college work and two-thirds
to City Association work, for as the
years have passed l. have come to
know that the old professor at Ran.
dolph-Macon knew what he was
praying about, and how dangerous tc
girls and young women are the
storms on the outside. So much is
done for the college girls, so little for
the equally worthy girls who never
enter college halls. The splendid
classes or the Y. w. Z. A. open the
door of opportunity through which
thousands pass into a larger and
more efficient life; it gives advice
and protection, guidance in both
spiritual and material concerns.
Money invested in the Brunswick
Y. W. C. A. is double investment;
in earthly securities, because they
need materials with which to work;
but in heavenly securities, too, for
character is developed, and loyalty
to the cause of right. We need the
Y. W. c. A. We will always need
it.

an out near the L Street park with
her throat cut from ear to ear, in
fact, the head was almost severed

that the dead woman was Regertna
Harris, of 1902 johnson street and
it is supposed that her husband, Mas

Sheffield razor, the case of which was
found near the body, was the. instru-
ment used.

r. G. Jackson, Fred Cowman, B. A.
White, o. C. Lisman and E. L.

returning verdict saying the kill
ing was done by an unknown party,

The primary defeats of Senators
New in Indiana and McCumber in
North Dakota left the Republican
party in those states with new as
pirants to the senate. Former Sena-
or Beveridge, a Progressive leader
in the days of Bull Moose activities,
is the standard bearer of Indiana Re
publieans in this campaign to go
back to the upper branch of congress.
Lynn J. Frazer, formre non-parti
san league governor of North Da-
kota, bears the Republican label in
that state for the McCum5er seat.
In Iowa where Smith Brookhart
IS the Republican nominee for the
senatorial toga which former Sena-
tor Kenyon exchanged for the ermine
of a federal judge, the closing cam
paign found more or less organized
Republican revolt against the Brook
hart candidacy. A somewhat similar
condition prevails in North Dakota,
where is considerable Republican an
tipathy to Frazier.

DRYDEN ENDORSES
RED CROSS DRIVE
Tells of Excellent Work in
Schools and Especially in Es-
Enlistment of Milk Depot
at Purvis.

Red Cross workers, in soliciting
funds for carrying on the work of
their chapter are often met with this
response: ''The war is over, what
need is there for the Red Cross to-
day."
The following communication re-
ceived by the general chairman of
Brunswick's 1928 Roll Call, points out
conclusively at least one vital need
a Red Cross chapter in this city:
Mrs. Walter s. Nathan, Chairman,
"Dear Mrs. Nathan: Replying to
your inquiry regarding the activities
of the Red Cross during the past
year. / wish to emphasize especially
the work which directly affected the
schools, l. e., the establishment of
milk depot at the Purvis Grammar
school to supply milk to those who
are not financially able to purchase
this as a part of the child's lunch.
"The effects of the milk diet were
shown almost Immediately and, with
in a month after the milk distribution
began the children gained from one
to eight pounds in weight, and con-
tinued to show physical improvement
throughout the session of 1922. |
really think this one activity of the
Red Cross, if sufficiently extended to
all needy children, would be suffi-
Gent to Justify the Roll Calf in
Brunswick.
"However, the local chapter did q
great many other charitable and al
leviating acts which should commend
it to the gracious support Of all good
citizens.
81 am glad to note that the higher
authorities in the Red Cross have
commended the fruit and milk re-
gime in Brunswick and have recon-
mended such a program for other
chapters.
"Any one who knows anything
about improvement in physical and
mental attitudes could see at
glance the changed conditions in the
Purvis school during the time the
Red Cross Association was supplying
milk, and I hope the chapter will
continue its beneficial activities along
this line of improvement.
'Heartiest good wishes for the
success of the Red Cross drive, of
which you are chairman,
+s Very truley yours,
CHAS. iEt DRYDEN, Supt.

FISHER " AN is
DOLLAR VAL UE
Appeals to Congress for
Sterilization of
Currency.

Observation-Disclosures Irv-
ing Fisher of Yale university, appear
ing before the house banking and
currency committee, urged the enact
ment of legislation to stabilize the
dollar "Never before have such fluc-
tuations been so wide, so universal,
SO diverse or so long continued" de-
clared Professor Fisher For years
to come the problem of the instabil-
ity of money will continue to engage
the attention of economists, busi-
ness men and statesmen.
"Deflation was wanted to do JUS
tice to pre-war creditors and doubt
less it did so to the few pre-war
creditors still surviving. But it did
injustice to the much larger number
of war and postwar debtors. We
certainly have no right to choose our
standard to help the few and hurt
the many We must recognize the
fast that every disturbance of our
standard makes it impossible to do
justice to everybody. 1t should be
an aiom of economic history that
monetary instability leads straight to
class conflict.
"The gold dollar is now fixed in
weight and, therefore variable in pur-
chasing power. What we need is a
gold dollar fled in purchasing power
and therefore variable in weight The
more the evidence in the case is
studied the deeper will grow public
conviction that our shifting dollar is
responsible for colossal social wrong
and is all the more at sult because
these wrongs are usually attributed
to other causes"

DEMOCRATIC CHURCH

You are frequently presented with
the statement that the church is COM
posed of classes. There was never a
greater falsehood uttered. The most
democratic institution on the earth is
the church.
The Bible says that we are all in
cluded under sin. There isn't any
man who is not classified as sinner.
Some may lie about it and say they
are not sinners and some may lie
about it and say there is no such
thing as sin But both of those state
merits are infalkble ttroofs of the
existence of sin and of the fact that
we are all included under sin. That is
democratic.
Those who are saved are saved by
Christ; therefore all Christians, re-
gardless of their name, are sinners
saved by grace and all Christians are
under grace. That is democratic.
There is only one qualification for
joining the church; namely, belief in
Christ.
