A CERTAIN man in New York filled out hit income tax report. It showed an income so large that his tax was 53. Andhia total gifts to church and char ity for the year were $148. Think of it thousands spent for luxuries and pleasure for himself; and $148 to leave the world little better than he found itl Most of us do better than that; but not so very much better. Our average daily gift for all church causes is lea than we spend for daily paper lea than a local talephon call leaa than a third of the day! car to lea than 3 cent a day No wonder that 80 of the ministers of America are paid less than $20 a week. No wonder that the church hospitals turn away thousands of sick people a year. No wonder that China has only one doctor for every 400,000 people. No wonder that every church board and charity society is forever meeting deficits, forever passing the hat It isn't became we are selfish; it isn't because w don't want to help. It's just because no one has ever put op a great big program tone, and asked ns to think of the work of the church in a systematic businesslike way. The Interchurch World Movement represents the united program of thirty denominations. They have surveyed their whole task, no business could have done it better. Tbey have budgeted their needs; no business could hav a more scientific budget They have united to prevent the possibility of waste and duplication. At least a million dol lara will be saved by the fact that thirty individual cam paigns are joined in one united effort. And they come to the men or women" who lov America to you this week asking you to use them as the chan nel through which a certain definite part of your income can be be appfied to make this s better world. Only you can determine what part of your income that should be. I "s a good time right now to answer that question We're passing through the world just once; how much better will the world be because yog finned through? spin i5th to stay lad INTERCHURCH World Movement of SMrth America I k mtit MilHihe fa msiH, s SIGNS OF THE TIMES Have yon noticed the sign that appeared tkia week en the Main street of Beaverton T It standi right out from the building and is nicely painted on both lidei.
