^-p^-lppf-^iPK^^ lp§g**SP '/AM. LAKE SHORE NEWS, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1918 «^ssgg if nil ■fep At the Quarterly business meeting ; of the Wilmette Baptist church held ; Wednesday evening and attended by a large percentage of the resident members, plans were discussed and adopted for the next 9 months of active work. The church is organ- ized under 9 departments by which the local work, the state, the national and the world-wide work of the | denomination, the international co- i operation, the war and relief work of I the church are administered. | The Membership department, tm- z der the leadership of P. R. Finlay, is | planning for a 100 percent Rally on :i Sunday, September 29, at which every ' member of the church and congre- gation will be either present or send .-. greetings. '■'W'M^t: The department of Property and Finance reported the church treasury in the best of condition and suggest- ed a program for the year looking toward the erection of the new church building on the lot at the corner' of Forest and Wilmette i avenues. "-.<>. The Religious Education depart- jment, Clare C. Hosmer, chairman, ^communicated plans for increasing Jnot only the size but the equipment :jof the Sunday school and of raising ^the educational standard of the ,. .Courses. 1 Miss Annie Beach, chairman of the Missionary department, spoke of ways and means for raising the large budget adopted by the church for Home and Foreign Missions, for charity in the Village and in Chica- go, for War Relief work and specific gifts. She also outlined plans for missionary education in the church and Sunday school. The Church Worship department, Howard Bowen, chairman, will work at the problems of decoration, usher- ing and all other phases of the work that contribute to the beauty of the hours of worship. The Community Service depart- ment, with Stacey C. Bennett as chairman, is leading the church in its co-operative efforts with alt the local organizations for Village betterment and War relief. I The Woman's department, with Inore than 70 members, Mrs. H. D. Davisson, chairman, has devised most skillful and far-sighted plans for the year's work. No time will be devot- ed to money raising for the specific interests of the department but all funds will be pledged outright by the members. Many hours of work each week will be given to the Red Cross. Missionary programs will also be provided for. The Laymen's department, under William M. Burns, leadership, will co-operate this fall with the National commitee of the Northern Baptist's Laymen, New York City, in a great nation wide campaign for spiritual enlistment, November 17 to 24. The Laymen will also make a study of the financial methods of the church with a view to further perfecting them. The Young People's department, operating as a chapter of the Baptist Young People's Union of America presented plans for the spiritual nurture of all the children and young people of the church and also for de- ] finite welfare service locally and in . Chicago. Mention was made of the i fact that the local chapter had, for ! the past ten years, attained "The "[ Standard of Excellence" recommend- i ed by the national organization, a | goal attained by less than 100 of all I the chapters in the nation, each year. In closing the meeting the pastor, Reverend Francis C. Stifler called at- I tention to the fact that the church although only 5 years old and still | quite small, numbered among its f members the following workers in Kthe larger fields of the denomination. W. E. Shoemaker, president of tire \ Chicago Baptist Social Union; C. L. I Major, manager of the Baptist Pub- lication society, Chicago; F. L. An- t.derson. Superintendent of the Bap- tist Executive council, the adminis- trative body for the city mission ; <work in Chicago; E. P. Phelps, pre- sident of the Chicago City Union of f-'jthe Baptist Young People's Union of America. ^mumumtmitiiMauaummmixaMmimm Illinois has already sent into the war 280.029 men, or over one-ninth of all the men in the military forces of the United States and 23,723 more than all the men furnished in Illinois to the United States government dur- ing the four years of the Civil war. Martin Connors of Pontiac, Mich., arrested on a disorderly charge, has been sentenced to go to church every Sunday for two months and to report j weekly to the pastor of the Central) Methodist church of Pontiac. I THIS AND OTHER WARS By David Kinley, Dean of the r|:%^ University of Illinois •*;".■ The main difference between the present war and other wan is that no other war in history has been produced by a con- flict of systems one of which ■was consciously, deliberately, adopted as a national policy for the very purpose of pro- ducing a war that would en- hance the aggrandizement of the aggressor. But it is estab- lished beyond cavil for two generations, or more, German policy has been shaped to this end. Upon Germany, therefore, rests the moral responsibility for the iniquity. She cannot claim even an equal division of the guilt on the ground that the war is a clash of economic and cultural systems, for she molded her system to produce the war. The system of government for which militaristic, autocrat- ic Germany stands cannot ex- ist side by side with democra- cy. One must be crushed if the other is to survive. Let us not deceive ourselves on this matter. If the Allies permit the survival of an autocracy powerful enough to begin an- other world war, it will destroy civilization. Never can the world bo safe for democracy. Therefore, there cavi be no peace in this conflict by com* promise or negotiation or dis- cussion. One system of politic- al and economic organisation or the other must go down to complete defeat. We must so punish this autocracy and crush its spirit that at least for gen- erations to' come it will not rear its head again. sentiment that they must and shall be powerful, efficient, and victorious. to/w»»,>»»wwfM»»»m»j»»»>»»»mt»>IS ARE YOU SAVING COAL? It is Every Individual'* Business To Help The Government Rather Than Abuse The Fuel Ad- ministration You expect cheap coal and plenty of it. The Government is giving you cheap coal--cheap under the circums- tances, as you will see if you com- pare present and pre-war prices of that commodity alongside present and pre-war prices of various other commodities; or the American price with European prices. But high prices stimulate production, and in keeping the price comparatively low the Government forgoes that stimulation. High prices induce economy in con- sumption too. In keeping prices compartively low the Government must rely on voluntary economy. Are you volunteering? Have you really done anything about next win- ter's fuel supply except to badger the coal man and criticize the Fued Ad- ministration? Have you overhauled your furnace? Have you got an ash sifter? Have you considered whether it is really a good plan to throw the dampers open until the hous is stif- ling and then open the windows? The Fuel administration has not been perfect. Have you? You are a fuel administration too. While pre- paring to advise the Fuel Administra- tion at Washington do not forget that it can give you some good ad- vice.--Saturday Evening Post. WHAT YOUR SUBSCRIPTION MEANS When you subscribe to a Liberty loan you usbscribe to the sentiment that the world must be made safe for democracy and subscribe to the fund that is to make the world safe for democracy. You subscribe to the belief that in- nocent women and children on un- armed ships shall not be sent to the bottom of the sea; that women and children and old men shall not be ravished and tortured and murdered under the plea of military necessity; that nurses shall not be shot for deeds of mercy, nor hospital ships be sunk without warning, or hospitals and unfortified cities be bombed or cannonaded with long-range guns. You suhscribe to the doctrine that small nations have the same rights as great and powerful ones; that might is not right, and that Germany shall not force upo nthe world the domin- ion of her military masters. You subscribe, when you subscribe to a Liberty loan, to the belief that America entered this war for a just and noble cause; that our soldiers in France and our sailors on the sea are fighting for right and justice. And you subscribe to the American Spread The Gospel Of Thrift, Be On ,.s,vV,:.,iV.Dutjr All The Time ^cir^ a* The duty of Liberty Loan workers does not cease with a Liberty Loan campaign any more than a soldier's duty ceases with his first battle. He is on duty every minute of the time his name is on the roll of workers. Of course, he has respite from in- tensive activity in the interim be- tween campaigns, but he should, even at the height of vacation time, con- sider himself to be on duty.if-^gf*}! The Liberty Loan worker can, in a great measure, pave the way to the desired success of his efforts when the campaign is on by spreading the gospel of thrift in the interim. He should avail himself of every op- portunity to impress upon the people of the community the necessity of saving fo rthe next loan, which, in view of the vast financial program outlined by the government, will be much greater than in the third cam- paign, necessitating the practice of thrift in every avenue of life. This proposed campaign of saving should be localized. The worker should get in touch with the editors of the newspapers of his district and im- press upon them the importance of emphasizing the need of all classes to cut down expenses to the mini- mum that they may take the maxii. mum of Liberty Loan bonds of the fourth is^ue. ^-p Bohcls speak louder than words.
