Movement to Promote
Coffee Consumption
BY HARDEN COLFAX.

In a campaign with almost the whole
Western hemisphere as its field, furtner
to popularize what is already our most
popular imported foodstuff, the producers
of coffee in Latin America have agreed
with the distributors in this country
to spend a large sum of money In ad-
vertising the nearly universal breakfast
drink.
After years of disagreement practi-
cally all the coffee interests OF the
United States have now come together
and are cooperating with foreign pro-
ducers to promote and extend our cof-
drinking tastes and habits. For
the first time in our history, it became
known this week, financial cooperation
on a large scale has been arranged be-
tween American and foreign business
interests to tempt the American pocket

At the convention in Denver of the
newly organized Associated Coffee In
dustries of America 1t was agreed to
cooperate with the representatives in
this country of the governments of cof-
fee producing countries and push v1gor-

Using for increased coffee consumption
in the United States.
For some years back the producing
counties, first among them being Brazil,
from which we get two-thirds of our
supply, and Colombia, which sells us 90
percent of her crop, have been appro-
priating funds for increasing the use Of
coffee throughout the rest of the world.
This week it was learned from coffee ex-
perts in the Government service and
Representatives of the Brazilian Amer

For these demonstrations. in England
as well as in America, do not spring
from any real belief that such means
will accomplish any SPECIFIC end. They
are mere symbols of aimless, bewildered
protest against things as they are. The
correct method Of stopping the march
ers is to remove the conditions which
create the discomfort. The conditions
creating this discomfort are never repre-
sented in the particular objective chosen
by marchers or demonstrators. This
ought to be self-evident. But 1t is not.
The various marches on Washington
last Winter were sentimentalized to an
absurd degree, with many in high
places as well as low who were willing
to rationalize the various objectives
sought by the marchers and to argue
that the granting Of these objectives
would remove the root of the difficulty.
Such coddling Of nisinformed and mis-
led men and women is vicious. 1t has
nothing to do with wise tolerance.

coffee has dictated public government

increasingly important factor in the

of more than one Latin American coun-
try are cabling that coffee has now be-
come the center of government depend

larger in the budgets and forign policies
of Brazil and Colombia. at least.
South America contributes rs per
cent of the world exports of coffee,
with the rest coming from Central

Africa and some Of the Pacific islands.
Central America. notably Guatemala,

When it is remembered that of the
more than 100000 bags of coffee, of
1872 pounds each. produced in Brazil
every year more than half are sold
in the United States and that we get
another 100000 bags from Colombia

parts of the world, 1t will be seen that

Bridge, Of every species, always has
been incomprehensible to the laity. In
recent years, under the stimulus Of pro-

increasingly complicated. Experts ap-

their ambitions. But what about the

modern observer opines. There IS
much discussion concerning the So
called youth movement and a wide
spread difference of opinion. Self
expression "self-repression"-th
Is the new slogan / talked recently to
a school superintendent in large
municipality and he spoke in pessi-
miStic way of the attitude of youth
toward the church. Thus on every
hand youth is the topic of the hour.
Pressing the school superintendent for
reasons for youths unresponsivenesS to
the appeal of the church and religion,
he said: "They do not receive in the
church anything that appeals to their
imagination. The pulpit message does
not reach them and the service in the
main is too colorlesS."
These many observations are worthy
of consideration and the church can
not be Indifferent to them. Our i'm
mediate response to all that we have
heard is that we do not believe the
youth of today differ much from the
youth of other days. Obviously, they
have new and more appealing instru-
mentalities than those OF other periods.
They have q greater freedom. They
are restive under restraint. but their
virtues and their vices are the same as
those we knew when we were young.
Our whole experience, whether preach
ing in universities, schools or parish
churches. does not sustain the conWc-
ton that the youth of this generation

power Of religious truth, rightly pre-
sented. Again. public worship today
has much to learn If 1t would resist
the ebbing tides of youthful interest
and support. Young and old alike are
not responsive to nor are they stimu-
lated by careless or slovenly render
ing of the sacred offices of the church.
There is widespread demand for more
of order, precision and dignity in the
conduct of public worship More OF
beauty and refinement, of real artistry,
if you will, in our forms OF service.
The safeguard of liturgical uses, prop
erly recognized. is a restraining in
fiuence to protect the Worshiper from
the conceits and idiosyncracies OF the
leader of worship. Young people IN
particular are repelled by many OF the
cheap and novel practices that all too
frequently are employed. They are
likewise repelled by an attempt to at
tract them by the employment OF de-
vices that have no consistent place in
the church's system. There is an i'm
menSe amount Of useless and some
times costly machinery employed by the
church to tempt the youth and to bring
them by subtlety into the church. We
do not believe it can show results. On
the contrary, it has proved the force
of what wise observer suggested when
he said: These instrumentalities. in
stead Of proving doors of access to the
church. will ultimately prove TO be ave-
nues of exit from the church"
Let the church once again set forth
the high claim OF the Christ; let 1t
urge with all insistence the ideals Of
life He taught; let it present through
worship and preaching the compelling
truths OF the gospel and its whole con-
duct be designed to meet the uni
versal needs of young and old alike
who are underequipped for life's tasks
without It's saving and revivifying mes
sages and there will be less discus
sion about the detection and apostacy
of youth and the pagan tendencies that
threaten to disrupt our cherished insti-
tutions 1t would be far wiser to suS-
pend the concentration Of our interest
upon the youth and to consider with
greater care our responsibility to the
people as a whole. Nothing will do
more to further weaken the appeal Of
the church than criticism and censure
OF the young. Where the heroic Mas
ter is presented, and presented with
consistency, with the accompaniment OF
a service that is vital and finely rev.
erent, there will always be glad and

The curious thing in the circumstances

case may be. No wonder one Of the czars
refers to the penalties Of the new inter-
national bridge code as being "a little
bit bloodthirsty!"
The codists may have had for their
inspiration the rules which governed
the once popular outdoor sport of
dueling They certainly have been
fearfully formal. They have taken
themselves and each other seriously.
That they have succeeded in their
principal purpose. no one can deny.
They have protected bridge from all
but expert players, they have made it
an authentic science, they have
banished amateurism.
However, 1t was inevitable that what
they have done should occur. There
has been a condition Of chaos in the
bridge world condition which could
be corrected in no other way than by
the formulation Of q governing code.
The rules apply only to those who wish
to play by them. People who prefer
the old hit-and miss regulations are
in no way obliged to change. And
people who desire only entertainment
and relaxation from cards can play
