SUNDAY SCHOOL MUCTHWi SUCCESS With Sn delegates present from all rural sections, the 10th annual Hood River County Sunday school convention heri' Wednesday of last week was de clared the most successful ever held. Addresses were delivered by Rev. W. 0. Bsc thin, pastor of the Upper Val ley Union church; Rev. Harold Hum bert) of Portland state Sunday School secretary, and Miss Georgia I'arker. of I'ortland, assistant secretary. O0C t rs SSSCtod for the ensuing year foll ow : (I. A. Weber, pres. ; Mrs. R.

A feature of the meeting was a song program by Rev. I). M.

Resolutions al so thanked all officials for their efforts. Anent Sunday Spraying RoosfRiver, April 19. Editor Glacier: In today's Oregon- inn under a Hood River heading I read as follows- "Warm sun.-bine and a calm made today ideal for sprayinir and scores of orchardists tot' j souk church services and sprayed apple : ttees." A similar article appeared in j last week's Ulacier referring to the previous Sunday. It is true that the two Sundays mentioned were very fine days; in fact, so far as the weather I consideration ahoet the only days dur I me; the past three weeks suitable for I applying apray material. Rut to my ' mihii it is doubtful whether there was such an abandonment of church ser I vices for this purpose as a casual read I ing of these articles .would appear to j convey. Some observations have been ; made in one of our heaviest pioducing 'sections in which it Is necessary to ap- ply the oil spray to every orchard, j Several persons in this commu lity sprayed on the kssg two Sundays. I Doubtless there areas aasehg the num her some who in a general way approve of the principles and ideals of the 'church and also support it financially. However, they ought not to be accused of forsaking church services to spray, since perhaps the great majority of thern are not regular church attend ants. Neither does it seen) fair to ap pear to include by so sweeping a stste mcnl the great number of church going people who never spray on Sunday, no matter how fine the day nor how in clement the preceding ones have been. At the Pine GfOVO church, where I am privileged to worship, on neither of the two Sundays mentioned was a sir gle man from among the regular at tendants absent from the services for the purpose of spraying. And is it not reasonable to suppose that what is true of the membership of this congre gation lilies also to the regular church going people throughout the valley? Yours very truly. W. C. Keck.

It showed an income so large that his tax was 53. And lu's total gifts to church and char ity for the year were- $148. Tl ink of it thousands spent for luxuries and f leasure for himself; and $148 to leave the world e. 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 less than we spend for daily papers Ie9s than a local telephone cad less than a third of the day's car fare less than 3 cents a day No wonder that 80 of the ministers of America are paid less than $20 a week. No wonoer 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 because we are selfish; it isn't because ws don't want to help. It's just because no one has ever put up a preat big program to us, and asked us to think ot the work oftCbe 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. They have budgeted their needs; no business could have E more scientific budget. They have tin ted to prevent the possibility of waste ai d duplication. At least a million dcl iurs will be saved by the fact that thirty individual Ci.tr. pa.giiS ate joined in one united effort. And they come to the men or women who love Ami ricn to you this WL'ek asking you tc use them as the chan nel through which a certain d -finite part of your income can be be applied to make th.s a better wot Id. Or.ly you can determine what part of your income that ehcuiu be.
