It is quite right and proper to do farm work on Sunday if that Sunday work is necessary to produce food crops to help whip Germany. That is the at titude of .the rural churches of Indi ana, expressed recently in conference nt Purdue University. The reason given for this position was the con viction of Indiana rural ministers that Germany is tho worst enemy of civ ilization, and of every church of civ ilization ;of all religion everywhere. that is worthy the name of religion; that, the .victory of ' the barbarous Huns would be literally the victory of the ftpvil tifiH the triumDh of that Dae- an monstrosity created by the Kaiser's savage ' and sacreligious mind and called by him "the good old German gott,' in short, that every church in ilizution is fighting for its existence just as every other component of civ ilization Is fignting lor us ex,sience and that if Sunday , work in saving crops will help overthrow this bestial menace it becomes veritably a churchly work to do.
