The Nation Wide Campaign
OF
The Episcopal Church.
What is its object? What will it do for its members?
What wjll it do for this com-nnmity?
The first great object aimed at is to get every member
aroused to the opportunity and responsibility to do Christ's
work in the world, by taking upon themselves a pledge to
do such service as they are fitted for.
By getting its members to do this it will give to them
the satisfaction of knowing that they have made good use
of the talents that were given them. What answer have
jyou. ready for the stewardship that has been given yu?Ji(.
:V- For thi& cnnmunity it will arouse an interest intav.ery
right thing for its development, putting a solid body of
workers behind every movement for the upbuilding of
good citizenship. Providing funds and workers for the
building and supervision of places where our young peo
ple not only of the Church, but of the Community at large,
can have clean, wholesome amusements under the Churchts
care.
Ask yourself what Christ has done for you-
You will be asked what you are going to do for Christ.

CALHOUN ltKTURXS FMHI THK
, l'OKI) 1'LA.NT AT DUTHOIT
It. C. Calhoun, machinist foreman
at Uio Hendy-Ogler garage, returned
Tuesday from Dotrolt where for six
weeks ho took Intensive training In
Uio Ford factory. Part of his time was
spont in each of the different assemb
ling departments, and tho Instruction
ho received was vory thorough, for
thoroughness and offlcleuc.v uro the
two essontial points of the Ford
works. Mr. Calhoun entered the plant
H8 a regular workman, ho was requlr-,
ed to give the same hours and same
service as any other mechanic, and
was paid a dally wage. Tliero was
nothing about a Ford car In which he
was not given practical instruction
by actual work, and this was supple
mented by evening lectures on the
theories of mechanical construction.
Mr. Calhoun, who has boon a machin
ist for twelve years, much of that
period as an auto mechanic, amassed
a fund of Information Tolatlvb to
automobiles during IiIb stay at tho
Ford plant which will prove wonder
fully, beneficial to him. which can bo
applied to not only a Ford car, bit
to any other make of car.
The Ford plant, Mr. Calhoun says
Is a wonderful organization and so
perfectly systematized that each of
tho 57.000 employes render an effi
ciency thnt cannot bo excelled. He
found women at some of tho machines
and was told that they were widows
of former Ford employes who had
been killed or had died In sorvlco dur
ing the war. These women draw tho
same pay as did their husbands and
aro entitled to tho samo seniority of
rights. Women whoso husbands aro
killed at the works as they aro coin
same privilege. This class of widows
aro small, for only ono mint met a
violent death at tho plant last year.
A scoro or more blind men are em
ployed at sue hwork ns they are com
petent to do. Last November Mr.
Ford concluded tho markets were
charging too much for meat, so ho In
stalled a market for the benefit of his
employes with tho result that 35,000
pounds of meat was sold on tho open
ing day at a price but little more than
one-half tho price charged by tho mar
kets. Satisfied with tho result of tho
market, a general store has been open
ed which Is a monstrous affair.
Having seen tho mnnner in which
Ford cars aro constructed, tho thor
oughness of every detail in tho man
ufacture of parts and tho efficiency in
assembling tho parts, Mr. Calhoun ro
turns more fully convinced than over
that the Ford car Is a good car.

"Cotton goods aro still ascending
In price," said a inerclinnt yesterday,
"and none can tell when the summit
will be reached. I rend In a paper
this morning that operatives in cotton
mills nro receiving from forty-five to
sixty-five dollars per week for eight
hour day work. If. such Is true It at
least partially accounts for the big
jump in cotton goods."
Hear tho Edison onco and you will
bo convinced. Dixon will bo glad to
show you.
