ENCOURAGE ARCHITECTURE

In order to encourage excellence
In the architecture of ordinary COM
mercial building, the Royal Institute
of British Architecture is inaugural
ing a plan of awarding a bronze
medal annually to the designer of
what 1t considers the most artistic
building within four miles of Char
ing Cross in the center of London.
This medal will be set into the build
ing to perpetuate the architects
name.
The institute has already appointed
a committee to judge the best build
ing erected last year under the chair
manship of the Earl of Crawford.
Discussing the institutes aims in
promulgating the scheme one of the
members of the committee. r. Guy
Dawber, a prominent architect, said
the whole idea was to encourage
architecture and improve the appear
ance of London.
What 1 feel" he continued lis
that, when an architect designs what
is considered well-designed build
ing, he should receive recognition
for it. 1t is rare for an architect
to sign his work, but ] think it is
right that his name should be on 1t,
exactly as a sculptor puts his name
on his work or the name of the
artist is affixed to his picture in a
gallery.
ALSO IL the building is good
enough to meet with the approval OF
the Institutes Jurors. the architect
should have his name attached to it
for all time"

INDIANS ARE NOT
DYING RACE; SHOW
SLIGHT INCREASE
Social Religion Makes Deep
Appeal to the American
AborigineS, Methodist
Official Asserts

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Jan 20
The American Indians as race are
not dying, as so many people think.
on the contrary, they show this year
slight numerical increase as COM
pared TO 12 months ago, according to
DR.. e. E. Higley of Chicago, superin-
tendent of the work among Indians
of the board of home missions of
the Methodist Episcopal church.
DR.. Hlgley disclosed this condition
in an address recently at the annual
meeting in this city of the home mis-
sion council of the church. The In
dian census year ago showed
34o,SSS Indians; now they number
s40,s17.
There is no field of home mission
airy endeavor where the spirit and
processes of cooperation among
these UNCONVENTIONAL boards and
workers is more manifested than in
the field Of Christian work among
Indians" continued Dr. Higley.
Study Field
1.-THE Christian missionary work
among Indians includes a study of
the missionary stations and native
churches, their economic and spir-
itual resources; second, an estimate
of the Indian schools, both govern
mental and mission, their educational
status, and the opportunity presented
for unified religious educational
program; third survey of the lat
reservations and other communities
where Indians are to be found in any
appreciable Number.
There are 10000 Indian boys and
girls between five and sixteen years
of age who are of school age, about
$4,000 are enrolled in government
schools with 10000 in public schools,
and the remaining $4,000 are still
without school privileges. In the In
dian schools especial emphasis is put
upon agriculture and home econom-
| les, In the large non-reservatiofl
schools many trade courses are pro-
vided The manner in which the In
dian bureau for the last two years
has worked for the fuller enrolment
of unschooled Indian boys and girls,
is matter for favorable comment.

in some way related to his physical

is for social and community services
which are an expression of the relig-
ion of Jesus that shall be sufficient
for both worlds, this world and the
world to come. That social religion
appeals to the Indian. The modern

Indians is needed for the young peo-
pie coming home from school life

KANSAS AND PROHIBITION

KANSAS AND PROHIBITION
Dr. Charles NJ. Sheldon. in the Chris
tian Herald.
In Kansas for more than 80 years
after May l. 1881. the prohibition
question was the one great political,
social, business and moral issue OF
more than 100000 people. living in
the geographical center of a nation,
isolated by more than 1900 miles
from any other state having SIM
liar law, ridiculed by powerful ma
tional press. by fginancial and po-
litical organizations.
1t is of course true that during the
entire AZ years of Kansas prohibition
there have been many and brutal
violations of the law. But all the
lawlessness and disorder and deceit
and trouble of various sorts under
an imperfectly obeyed prohibition
law were not drop in Noah's flood
compared with the same things In
tensified which Kansas had endured
under the saloon. In other words,
Or ohibition at its worst was ire
inendously better than the saloon at
its best, and the foes of prohibition
need to have this fact hammered into
their skulls with a bung- starter.
The history of Kansas in it's fight
with the liquor interests is being re-
produced in the national conflict al
most step by step. The difference
consists in the tremendous advantage
that Uncle Sam has over the single
state that stood for so many years
alone. But the evasions, the home
brew, the Illicit sales, the lawless-
ness of the high-brow and the low
brow element in hatred of the law,
the cry of personal liberty, the exag-
gerated thirst that the law-breakers
would have us believe 100000
people have, the apathy or direct
sympathy with lawlessness that GER
tain great dailies still express-have
we not seen all that In the history
of Kansas, and all of it intensified
by tho combined attack OF forces
that are no longer in political or
social power: Yea, verify.
And if, alone. Handicapped, sur
rounded, deluged with whisky and
beer from every quarter of her
boundaries, betrayed by her own
sworn public officials. and smitten
by the very forces of civilization tina.
should have rallied to her support
Kansas fought and won, how much
more now, with all that as past his
tory. Is the hope and faith that the
United States shall drive this COM
mon enemy of the church and home
and business into the sea, SO far be-
vond the three mile limit that not
even, a wireless can get her last call
for help.
