HAYS CITES VAST
BURDENS HEAPED
UPON MINISTERS

1T is not wise, nor is it Christian,
to add financial cares to a minister's
other burdens" Will H. Hays, presi-
dent of the Motion Picture Producers
and Distributors of America, assert
ed Tuesday night at the first report
terry of the Presbyterian Church,
which is attempting to raise $751;
100000 in a national drive to PEN
sion aged ministers and missionaries.
Hays is general chairman Of the
laymen's committee and is directing
the Nationwide drive. 1--WE look
with scorn on people who do not
prepare for old age and become a
public charge, but those who fulfill
what is the highest Office in COM
munity we give a pittance without
hope of provision for the furore,"
he said.
500 Attend
Approximately 500 clergymen and
laymen from the six districts in the
Indianapolis presbytery attended.
They reported a total of S54,522.5O
raised since the opening Of the drive
last Friday. The quota of the pres
bytery, which includes forty-six
churches in and around Indianapolis,
is 100000. Another report dinner
will be held at the. Indianapolis Ath-
letic Club Monday evening.
1.-THE thinning of the ranks of
prospective ministers should make
us pause" Hays asserted. 1--WE are
expecting too much of human nature
when we ask man to dedicate him.
self to present need and future hard
ships.
Need Ministers
"Were they not men Of strong
character, reconciled to devoting
their lives to the service of God and
their felloWmen, at Unreasonable
personal sacrifice, the attractions to
them in commercial life, where in
tellectuality is bound to find its
place, would already have democrat
lied the effective preaching OF the
gospel.
eff you would realize what the
minister means to the individual or
to the community" ne continued,
"try to imagine what existence
would be without hin-no worship,
no sacraments, no baptism, no mar
riage ceremonies except the signing
of contract, at the grave the low
ering of the coffin without word Of
tomorrow. We could not bear 1t
week. We would starve. We could
net exist as a nation without the
ministers, who get wages scarcely
larger than the garbage collector"
Hays speech was broadcast over
WFBM.

By Times Special
CHICAGO, July 13.-The name Of

appears as the Indiana member in
the house of delegates of the Ameri-

convention will be held in Denver,
Colo, the week of July 25.

There are houses that, like babies,
one cannot pass without pausing to
admire. The new residence at 5741
N. Pennsylvania st. is such a house.
1t was built by The Van Kinks, as
Mr.. and Mrs. L. A. Van Kirk prefer
to call their building organization,
but any woman will realize at once
that Mrs. Van Kirk had the greater
share in the planning, for the
feminine touch is everywhere ap-
parent.
The exterior is charming, and, in
its picturesque and homelike color
and design, suggestive of the at
tractive interior. A winding walk
leads from the street to the arched
entrance door opening into a
shallow vestibule. At each side OF
this entrance there are groups Of
easement windows with loaded glass
panes, and ivory shutters trimmed
with green complete the ornamental
effect of these window groups. Buff
colored stucco has been used for the
exterior walls, the roof is OF vari-
colored fireproof shingles and the
south porch, from which French
doors open into the living room, is
shaded by a gayly colored Arabian
awning upheld by four slender iron
standards.
Attractive Hallway
The door opens into a square
hallway between the living room
and dining room. Instead of hav-
ing stairs to go up from this hall
way, however, the architect has
brought them down on the north
side of the living room and turned
them at landing a few steps above
the first floor level. BY an arch
topped door, inset with frosted and
colored glass, this landing is con-
nected with steps that lead down to
the breakfast room.
The breakfast room is between
the dining room, on the northwest,
and the kitchen, on the northeast,
and, like the other rooms through
out the house, with the exception of
the kitchen, is attractively papered
in panels. For the living room and
dining room a flock paper has been
used, and its velvety surface gives
the effect of tapestry panelling. In

Fresh Eggs For Every Month OF
The Year.

Many consumers wonder how it
is they can get fresh eggs from
nearby poultry farms every month
in the year There are several fac
tors which influence this condition.
but perhaps the chief one is that
poultrymen are able by the use o.
lights to keep their birds in better
condition and thus get their eggs
in seasons when production Is
normally low. We are now in q
period of high production costs anG
low market prices, and every
poultryman who wants to stay in
business should consider every
step which will give him more
economical production Lights are
one of the most important of these
steps that can be taken.
