JOHN D., JR., ENDS
BAPTIST BACKING
Bulk of Religious Donations
in Future to Go to Non.
sectarian Projects.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November 15.-Non-
sectarian projects hereafter will re-
ceive the bulk of religious donations
which John D. Rockefeller, jr., has
nomination.
His change of policy, he has notified
the Northern Baptist Convention,
central body of the church in the
North, resulted from a desire to aid
sin emphasizing the basic truths COM
mon to all denominations, in lowering
denominational barriers and in pro-
noting effective cooperation among
Christians of whatever creed"
Rockefeller and his father, finan-
cial pillar of the Baptist Church be-
fore him, have given millions to the
Northern Baptist Convention and its
agencies. One gift alone, memorial
to Mrs. Rockefeller, sr., was $4,000, 900.
Rockefeller notified the convention
of his decision in letter dated last
March Z, but made public only last
night by his publicity representatives.
Present Day Needs.
1T is my present thought" the
letter said, Ito contribute to specific
projects, chiefly interdenominational
or non-denominational in character.
which interpret the Christian task in
the light of present-day needs and
which are based not so much on de-
nominational affiliation as on broad
forward-looking principles of CO.
operation"
Baptist projects meeting those re-
ouirements would be eligible for aid,
he pointed out, although he no longer
would contribute annually toward the
conventions unified budget.
''I believe in denominations-in 81
far as they make necessary provision
for individual variation in religious
experience" he said 90 = Wha
gives me pause is the tendency inner
ent in denominations to emphasize the
form instead of the substance, the de
nominational popularity instead of tht
oneness of Christian purpose.
Seen as Divisive Force.
ST have long felt that his denomi
national emphasis is divisive forc'
in the progress of organized Christian
work and an obstacle to the devel
opment of the spirit and life of Chris
among men.
If the church is to go forward. i
1t is to hold the young people of toda!
who, generally speaking, are not great
ly concerned about denOmina tiOna
distinctions and have a decreasing in
terest in Sectarian missions, and i
their support of its activities is to re-
place that of the older givers whit
pass on, these denominational dis.
tinctions are bound to fade in th'
forward movement of great, unitee

Christ and find in him the abundan'

THE sophomore class was in club
session. There was strike going
on and some of the families were suf-

class was discussing ways and means
/ to help them. The teacher suggested
plan-money to be collected, food
distributed and the like. I'VE could
appoint committees who could take
care of this under the direction of
the faculty. Don't you think this
would be good scheme?"

Lately she had become rebellious and
unreasonable and a family thorn.
Could We shed any light on the situa-
ton? We couldn't. Isabelle was do

with Isabelle. After skirmishing about
for favorable position things opened
up well.

Hotel Suite
Possible in
Bridal Rites
Best Taste Would Be
in Church Setting
for Ceremony.
BY EMILY POST.

BY EMILY fOSI.
EAR MRS. POST: My
<( daughter must necessarily
have a small wedding, be-
~ cause our apartment is
small, and we will have
to engage a suite in good hotel
where we can have the ceremony,
after which the hotel will serve the
breakfast. Is this all right?"
Answer-If both bride and groom
are Protestants, it would be in best
taste to have the ceremony performed
in a church and then have the break
fast at the hotel. But If this is not
practical, there is no serious breach
of taste in having the ceremony take
place at the hotel.
Dear Mrs. Post: The wedding cake
for my reception is causing good
deal of controversy in our house. Just
one cake is going to have to be very
big in order to cut into portions for
every one invited. Would it be all
right not to have a wedding cake.
and instead to supply small boxes OF
cake for every one to take home? And
what kind of cake is usually ordered
for the boxes?"
AnSwer-It is not at all necessary
that the cake be large enough to
supply a portion to every one-but
there should be a wedding cake: a
fairly large one to decorate the buffet
table, or else (and quite as often a
very small one as the principal decora-
ton for the brides table. At all i'm
portant weddings little boxes of black
fruit cake are stacked on table near
the front door so that each guest may
take box home. At simple wedding
It is more likely that there is cake
big enough for every one to cut a
piece, either to eat Immediately or
to wrap in a piece of waxed paper to
take home-and then no little boxes.
Dear Mrs. Post: I want to wear
white satin at a o'clock wedding,
and the men in the bridal party have
no cutaways. Could they wear plain
dark suits or must the groom arrange
to hire suits for them?"
Answer-If you choose soft type
of satin-like a charmeuse-made very
simply, it will be all right to let the
men wear their own dark suits since
on no account should they wear hired
suits.
Dear Mrs. Post: My wedding invi-
tations are to be sent out by my par
ents but because of circumstances we
are using my fiance's house for the
reception. How would this be included
on the same invitation sent for the
ceremony?"
Answer-Add two more lines to the
usual form: "and afterward at the
reception, 1854 Peekskill Terrace"

Dorothy Dix Says
Idea of Husband, One Who Supports
Wife in IdleneSS.
Wife in IdleneSS.

THE men know that they would be
bored to death themselves. if they
had nothing else to do but to dress
up and go shopping or attend per-
petual parties. They know that play
can become the hardest labor on
earth. They know that idleness is
the devils workshop for men, but
they think it is somehow different for
women and that they enjoy being
merely playthings.
And it never occurs to these good
husbands that malice itself couldn't
invent greater unkindness than they
are doing to their wives, and that
what their wives need is not to be
cossetted, but to be made to pull
their weight in the boat. The real
reason that there are so many peevish,
fretful, ungrateful wives and SO many
wives who are hunting soul mates is
that their husbands, through mis-
taken kindness, have kept them shut
up in satin-lined boxes instead Of
putting them to work.
they are being good to their
families when they let them live be-
yond their means. The wife has So

the rich Joneses. The girls must
dress as we'll as the Millionbucks. The
boys must 60 to college. There must

was being tender and considerate Of
