The attitude of the Methodist church to ward war was the subject of eager debate today before the committee on the state church which wut draw up for presentation to the general conference the church's official pro nouncement of its stand. A prelimi nary statement submitted by a sub committee, was ordered printed for study by the committee members. The resolution, sa read, left to in dividuals the right to act in case of war as their consciences direct, but declared the church as a church would separate itself from carrying on any war.

In both cases. shingles would be of no value. ho ever heard of shingling a ! hillside? Well, shingles for a hillside ' are called terraces and a terrace is a ridge much like a road grade car ried around the hillside to prevent excessive washing or formation of many small ditches. These ridges are made with a road grader after a proper location has been determined by means of a leveling instrument. Some long slopes may require five or six terraces, one above the other and so graded that all the water which falls between them is carried around the terrace to the edge of the field and emptied into the road ditch or down a grassy ravine. This work should be done in the fall of the year, since it allows plen ty of time for the grade to settle over winter. Terracing is not an experiment. It has been practiced for many years in some states. ASFALTSLATE MINGLES 'The Shingle that Never Curls" Eope Club Fifteen boys under the leadership of Supt.
