Robert Lansing, secretary of state
during the world war, a Presbyterian
cider and mcmter of the executive
commission of the Presbyterian
the dominant need of a department of
church herewith gives his views of
publicity for our church:
"There la one thing, among many
things, that the world learned from
the great war which will persist, and
that is the value of sustained organ
ized propaganda. Anyone having to
do with the vui ioua agencies employed
h.v government came to the realiza
tion of the almost vital importance of
n specialized bureau of propaganda.
The common and every day channcb
were not enough. A man might be a
go.nl press correspondent or n talent
ed editor and fail as a propagandist
His point of view was nlmost always
influenced by the thought of his leafi
er:' pleasure and the circulation of
his paper. Self-interest and useful
propaganda do not mix well, and a
newspaper published for profit is a
poor medium for advancing a cause.
"It has become manifest to a casual
thinker that the way to combat Ideas (
is with ideas. Force, coercion and
law are unable to check the advance
of ideas. If false principles and false
doctrines are gaining headway in the
public mind, the way to defeat them
fa by supplanting them with true
principles and true doctrines. That
mean.? a strong, cea.ele propaganda
in support of the truth, carried on by
an agency devoted solely to that pur
pose. "Governments have learned the
wisdom of creating special propagan
da agencies; po, too, have those advo
cating political reforms and social and
economic movements. To a less de
gree the church has awakened to the
value and need of propaganda in its
cfTorti to implant the truths of Chris
tianity in the heart sof men. The con
stitution of a separate agenry to carry
on this work has been found the only
elective method so far as other move
ments in the varied fields of human
thought are concerned, and the church
should profit by their experience and
not stagnate under the Inefficient prac
tices of the past. In so far an it has !
established an agency to conduct pro
paganda it Khould be continued and in
my opinion, should be extended. The
church can hardly find a more uscrui
or practical way to accomplish its mis
sion in the world. The money ex
pended for maintaining such an agency
will go further and accomplish more
than an equal amount Invested In any
other of the activities of the church.
"Propaganda to be successful must
be divorced from private control and
private profits. The agency for con
ducting it must belong to the church
as a whole and be generously supplied
with means to do its work. The Pres
byterian church ought not to neglect
the experience of others as to the
worth of propaganda and the best
mean sof conducting it effectively."
(Quoted from New Era Magazine.)

.Re Closed Car
.FOUR-PASSENGER COUPE
The elegant interior finish of Reo closed cars is attracting favorable attention wherever shown. In
upholstery and fittings, they compare with cars costing twice as much. The Coupe is decidedly Milady's
car, and is a job she is proud and happy to show her friends on any occasion.
METHODIST CHURCH
The automobile race contest Is near
ing a finish, and has proved interest
ing and helpful to the entire school.
The young ladies' Bible class made a
thousand miles last Sunday, and were
within a few hundred miles T com
pleting the round trip from San Fran
cisco to New York and back again.
Next Sunday morning will probably
close the contest. . Let us have a large
attendance. Two hundred and thirty
four were present last week.
Next week the district convention of
the Woman's Foreign missionary so
ciety will be held in Crawford, and a
number of our ladies are planning to
attend. A banner is to be offered tq
the society having the largest number
of delegates.
Lovers of art will have a rare treat
Sunday night, when a set of pictures
on the "Life of Christ" by Hoffman,
will be shown. An art critic has said
that in popularity with the common
people, Hoffman easily stands first a3
an artist. His paintins-s of Christ
have given the modern Christian world
their idea of his appearance. His
"Christ in Gethsemane" is probably
seen in more church windows than any
other painting, while his "Boy Jesus
In the Temple" is a favorite in every
home. Perhaps the fact that the "boy"
the artist ued as his model for the
picture was not a boy at all, but a
girl, accounts for its rare beauty.
Come out and see the Galilean from
he cradle to the grave, by your
favorite artist.

FIVE-PASSENGER SEDAN '
In the Reo Sedan you find the luxurious equipment and appointments demanded by the most ex
acting of buyers. It is a veritable road Pullman with every modern convenience. Distinctly a family '
car, it affords that riding comfort that makes autoing a real pleasure.
REO CLOSED CAR BODIES ARE ALL ALUMINUM
This eliminates excessive weight which is a draw-back to many closed cars, and enables the Eeo
owner to get a mileage on tires and gasoline that is tne envy of hLs neighbors.
