WASHINGTON, D. C-, July 2. 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.
If you happen to -be around town,
In the wee sma' hours of the morn
ing, just cast ybur eyes toward the
setting moon, and then go to your
waiting canvas, and with the skill
of Michael Angelo If you have It
trnnsrer to your -canvas a, blood
