UNEMPLOYMENT
CONFERENCES

Spurred on by the fact that ex-
service men are still joblesS, the AM
erican Legion has launched nation
wide 30 day employment drive
through its 1000 posts. Employed
veterans everywhere in the United
States have volunteered to devote
their spare time and money. as well
as the use of their automobile and
buggies, for the big job-hunt, in be-
half of their less fortunate comrades.
The Presidents Conference on I'm
employment in Washington, has been
asked to cooperate. All the back
ing 1t can give, togcther with the use
of its machinery and organization, has
been made available. Hansford Mac
} Nlder, National Commander of the
Legion, will direct the campaign from
his headquarters in Indianapolis. "a
Job for my Buddy" is the idea which
every employed veteran will work I'M
I'll April 20.
Arthur Woods, who heads the En-
Urgency Committee of the Confer
ence, telegraphed the following plan
Of campaign to-day from Washington.
First relieve distress. If there
are men in want, take care of them.
/ Next, make sure that a man who
needs a job knows how to look for it.
Is the local employment agency well
run, and do the men use it? Hunt for
jobs, and keep on hunting 1t will
surprise you how many will turn up
if you work, and don't miss tricks.
Don't wait-apply at every employ
ment bureau, advertise, write personal
letters, make calls and get your
friends TO work for you And there's
4 friend in need waiting for every
job you unearth. Only don't go so
far as 10 have some one else fired to
make room for your men.
Last, stir things up, paint up, dig
up, spruce up generally. Everybody's
doing it. The nation, your State,
your town, companies, just people,
yourself, do something that needs to
be done: only do it now-don't wait.
You'll get it done, and you'll help some
one in the doing who needs and de-
serves help"

THE SECOND OF THE SEVEN
ESSENTIALS IN BUILDING
ARRANGEMENTS

Writing in a recent issue OF Build
ing Management, Noble Foster Hogg-
son, President OF Hoggson Brothers,
New York, mentions arrangements
as the second important essential IN
Judging the success or failure OF new
building. This essential both IN COM
mercial and private building projects,
according to Mr.. Hoggson, Is second
only to the primary consideration OF
cost, or the investment feature. 1t Is
true that no project which does not
measure up to the requirements OF
the other five essentials, appearances,
decoration, stability, speed in con-
structlon and service 10 Owner-can-
not be an entirely satisfactory oper-
ton. But, as human need is the rca-
son for erecting buildings, 1t IS prl-
mary important that the needs Of
the occupants be met by the arrange
ment of furniture and equipment OF
various kinds. These articles must
be placed SO as to afford the great
est comfort and convenience. There

To plan the inside properly, a pre-

is to court an inevitable sacrifice of

condition is due, in the majority of
cases, to inefficient planning at the

dren are working for the Foundation
are Nebraska, Virginia, and Michi-
gan. In Detroit the children are com
peting for medals in contest in

founded. The great wave of re-
ligious feeling that began its tidal
sweep over the world during the
war, has not reached its culmlna-
ton as yet, and will probably con-
tinue for years to come. The
wave of materialism which al
most submerged the world in the
nineteenth century has spent its
force and is rapidly disappearing.
AS between the two we have, and
have always had, the profoundest
faith in the ultimate triumph OF
spiritual forces in the onward
march of civilization.

RELIGIOUS DENOMINATIONS

The Christian Herald OF last
Saturday publishes a complete OF
fetal census OF religions in the
United States, compiled by DIR. H..
X. Carroll, that is unusually in
formative and interesting.
There are 15,3+2,l71 Catholics
in this country, with 1851
churches and 22,0O9 priests; that
IS Western Catholics, as distin-
guiShed from the Eastern Ortho-
doX bodies. These form by far
the greatest number of communi-
cantS OF any church. Next in
order come the MethodiStS. with
S,00l 500 commandments, O5,2S3
churches, and 42.955 ministers
Third. come 7,S25,598 Baptists.
with 59,90l churches, and 45,995
ministers. Then the Lutherans.
with 2,429,56l members, 13,94S
churches, and 9996 ministers.
Then fifth, the PreSbyterianS,
with 2,518,342 members 1888
churches, and l4,275 ministers.
Sixth in order, the Disciples Of
Christ, with 1,519,715 members
14,401 churches. and 500 min
listers. Seventh, the Protestant
Episcopal Church, with 1902, sos
members, 7955 churches, and
1901 ministers. Eighth, the Con-
gregational Church with Sl9,225
members, 1924 churches and 5665
ministers. Ninth, the Catholic
Eastern Orthodox Church, with
OILS A. members, +9l churches
and $50 ministers. Tenth, the
Latter Day Saints, with 5ST,70l
members, 172l churches, and
SlSS ministers. Eleventh the Re
formed Church, with 510,905
members, 27lO churches, and
2222 ministers. Twelfth, the
United Brethren with 57O,1S2
members, $40 churches, and
PA ministers. Thirteenth, the
Jewish Churches, with 557,l55
members, 1901 churches, and 72l
ministers.
There are twelve Buddhist Jap
aneSe Temples, with $3.50 COM
munlcants. The smallest relig-
ious order is the Temple Society,
with two churches, two ministers
and 200 communicates.
Its noticeable that the Catholics
with nearly double the number OF
communicates OF the Methodist
and Baptist Churches have Just
about hall the number OF churches,
and much less than hall the num-
Der OF priests or ministers.
The total number OF all coul-
municantS OF all churches in the
United States in 1921. was 49,
$500; the number OF churches
was 230.572; and the number of
ministers and priests was l95.4l4
The increase over 1920 is subStan-
tial and very gratifying. 1t IS
our own belief that the increase in
1922 will be still larger; in fact
the largest since the Republic was

Tust Folks
TWO COUNSELORS

Courage whispers: "Go ahead!
Doubt will murmur Don't you do 1t,
There is danger grim ahead"
Courage answers: You'll pass through 1t.
Doubt will strive TO hold you back,
Talking always of disaster,
Courage bids you to attack
Just to prove yourself a master.
These two counseors attend
Youth and age on every journey;
In the cloak and guise of friend
Each appears as mans attorney.
Doubt will bid you to beware
Failures sad and sorry story,
Courage then will bid you dare,
Picturing the vctor's glory.
Doubt would save you from blow,
Courage have you stand and take it,
Doubt would urge you not to go,
Courage always says: You'll make it,"
Even though you're black and blue,
Courage whispers: Keep on trying.
Stand and see the struggle through.
You'll come out with colors flying"
Boy o. mine, when Courage calls,
Heed not Doubts disturbing teaching;
Dare to brave thousand falls
If you goal is worth the reaching.
Rather than to fail with Doubt,
Faint of heart and battling never,
Better die with Courage stout
On field of fair endeavor.
