MELLON SPEAKS
At RELIEF RALLY
Senator Says Midwest "A-
burgh Plan" for Financing
Public Works.
BY the Associated Press.

PITTSBURGH, November g. An
drew W. Mellon, Secretary of the
Treasury, spoke here yesterday at a
mass meeting sponsored by the
churches of Pittsburgh in the interest
of the campaign to raise funds for the
relief of unemployed and needy.
Mr.. Mellon lauded particularly the
so-called pittsburgh plan" for the
mitigation of unemployment. Under
this plan, which operated here last
Winter and is being attempted again
this year, persons in a position finan-
cially to do so contribute money for
public improvements to be carried out
by those who otherwise would be Iun-
employed.
Materials and supervision for the
improvements are furnished by the
municipality The plan is independent
of the usual welfare fund" for the
relief of the needy.
The Pittsburgh plan, Mr.. Mellon said,
"confers a double benefit on the COM
munity, for it not only makes possible
needed improvements and provides en-
ployment but at the same time helps
to maintain that self-respect which is
so essential If people who are able and
willing to work are to be spared the

The Morning Sermon
The Rev. Mr.. Connor used for
his sermon Sunday morning a text
found in Lukes gospel, 18th chap
/ ter. part of the 1st verse, "That men
| ought always to pray"
He said in part that men and wo-
men of these days though receiving
great gifts from the God above did
not lift their heads in prayer and
thank Him. The sermon was full of
thoughts, which should cause people
to stop and think where their pres
ent life is leading them.
The Evening Service
The evening service was devoid of
any Epworth League, the leader fail
ed to appear. The pastor preached
very interesting sermon based on
the text taken from the general
epistle of James, 4th chapter, part
of the 14th verse For What Is Your
Life?" This sermon should have
reached a larger congregation than
was present Sunday night. Owing to
the weather only a few were pres
ent. 1t was a sermon of that class
which will stir women's and mems
very souls. 1t was the kind of a dis
course which Glendale Church
needed and many other churches at
the present time.

tor.

Church School

The Church School was only fair
ly attended Sunday morning. 7S tea
chers and scholars being present.
This was a poor showing from a roll
numbering 21S, but Glendale
Church is not alone in the poor at
tendance at both the church and
church school. We should endeavor
to make our attendance what it
should be regardless of any other
churches.
The writer saw on last Sunday as
he was on his way to the church
school eight or ten boys roaming the
streets at will, that should have
been in some of the departments of
the church school. We know that
some of the teachers have been to
see the parents of these children,
but up to date have failed 20 induce
them to send their children to the
church school. An awful respOns:-
bility rests on those who have these
children in charge, which Will have
to be answered for at the Judgment
Day.
The lesson entitled, "Paul's Letter
To Phileman," was a very interest
ing one and brought out from diff
ferent members of the classes their
thonghts in regard to the real mean
ing of the lesson.
Paul wrote this letter to Phiie-
man while a prisoner at Rome and
at a time when he was handcuffed
to a soldier. The conversion Of On
esimus, a slave, who had run away
from his master, who resided at
Colosse, taking some money, shows
that Paul though bound found way
to preach Christ and Him crucifed,
until it had reached to the highest
as we'll as the lowest class citizens
of the eternal city; among the lat
ter class was Onesimus, the slave,
who had lately arrived. He heard
Paul's voice and was converted. The
servant confessed to Paul all that
he had done in sinful way. Paul
showed his bigness when he sent
the servant back to his master ac-
companied by a letter which advis-
ed Phileman what to do. Not to
treat him as a slave in the future,
but to welcome him back not as a
servant but as brother beloved.
Phileman needed the warning OF
Paul, and not only treated him as
a brother and no doubt elevated the
former servant to a position where
he could in the future do much
