Tho "Wichita team," headed by Dr.
J. Campbell White of Now York, Asso
ciate General Secretary of tho Inter
church World Movement, delivered tho
mcssngo of tho Interchurch Movement
to the Nebraska pastors. Dr. White,
In his kcynoto address, said that for
the first tlmo In history tho mighty
forces of the Protestant church are
merged for the evangelization of tho
world and for the spreading of the
teachings of Jesus Christ
Ono of tho Interesting nddrcssos was
that of J. Klrkwood Craig, director of
surveys of special groups. "In tho
state of Nebraska," said Mr. Craig,
"there arc 420,040 Protestant, or nom
inally Protestant children and youth
who aro not In any school for rellgloun
Instruction. It you should point to the
weakest spot In tho Protestant church
you would point to tho 27,000,000 chil
dren and youth who aro growing up In
spiritual Illiteracy and to the 10,000,000
more whose religious Instruction Is lim
ited to the brief half-hour oneq a week
on Sundays. A church that cannot
nave her own childhood can never save
tho world."
Religious Survey of Nebraska.
Tho religious survey of NebraBku,
which Is being conducted by K. W. 0.
Illller of Lincoln, supervisor of tho In
terchurch World Movement survey, is
rapidly Hearing completion, Mr. Illller
reported. Only two counties have been
entirely completed, but tho survoys In
sixty aildltlonal counties are almost
completed.
Rev. W. E. J. OnitJi, pnBtor of St
Paul Methodist church of Lincoln, In
an address the first duy of tho confer
once, told somothlng of the purposes of
the Interchurch World Movement and
said the Movement aimed to ralso
$1,1120,000,000 to caro for tho program
for the next flvo years.
Bishop Homer Htuntx of the Method'
1st church In Nebraska, who has re
cently returned from tho Far East
where he held conferences In India,
China, Japan, tho Philippines nnd oth
er Far East countries, told of the need
of thnt portion of tho world for the
projects outlined for It by the Inter
church World Movement.
While the punters' conference was In
session In tho St. Paul Methodist
church, the womaiiB' auxiliary was
holding meetings In tho First Prcsby
terlnn church with Mrs. K. C. Cronk of
Now York City na'chalrmnn. Membors

Migratory Farm Labor.
Nebraska farmers will bo Interested
in an nddross dollvercd by II. B. Doug
las, a member of tho team, Mr. Doug
las has made a study of migratory har
vest labor. Last year ho dressed as a
harvest hand and worked In the bar
vest fields In many parts of Nebraska
as well as of Oklahoma, Kansas, South
Dakota, Iowa, Mlnuosota and other
wostorn states.
"Four million farm hands ltave no
Job In winter," ho said. "They must
depend on charity or odd Jobs. They
must havo shelter and (something to
eat for 12 months lu the year. A quar
ter of n million ml&ratory laborers in
Nebraska last summor had never heard
, of Jesus Christ. But It is theso migra
tory farm hands who keep tho nation
from starving. We must havo a mi
gratory church tfe follow theso bauds
as they work their way northward in
the summer."
Among tho other members 'of " the
team who addressed tho conference
wore: It C. Capen, Baptist mission
ary In China; Rolvlx Harlan of New

Charles F. Taylor, and others.
A special meeting was held during
the conference by representatives from
every county in Nebraska for special
Instruction ns to the method of cover
ing the stewardship message to tho last
church In the state.
"The church has become a suppliant
beggar, dependent for her very ex
istence on benevolence," Dr. (Joorge E.
Fnrrar, Held secretary of this depart
ment, told the county representatives.
This Is all wrong. It was not so at
the beginning, (lot! provided for his
church. The Interchurch Movement Is
ailing for 10,000,000 Christian stew-
rds who will covenant to set aside for
the forwarding of the kingdom the
Ilrst fruits of their Increase."
In the last hour of tho conference,
fter Dr. Campbell White, from tho

ka Central College; Dr. D. K. Jenkins,
president Onmhn university; II. V.
Hoop, president York college, and G.
W. Mitchell, president Franklin acad
emy, presented the following findings,
which were unanimously adopted:
Tho Findings.
"It has been clearly manifested that
the supremo aim, the outstanding pur
pose of this movement, Is to reveal
Christ In an adequate way to the whole
world, and to make His spirit and prin
ciples dominate In tho life of the Indi
vidual, in society, nnd In the commer
cial, educational nnd political life, and
In nil national and International rela
tions ;
"And wo bellove that the Interchurch
survey thnt brings to us tho facts of
the whole field, Its need and to what
degree that need Is met, will enable the
churches to conserve men nnd money,
In the achievement of tho work of the
Kingdom.
"Some places nre overehurcheit and
other places have no religious services,
then conditions can bo adjusted ac
cording to the needs of the field.
"It will bo necessary for all churches
to co-operate In some great movements
In some great centers In which no
ono church can meet the need. By thli
co-operation the churches will become
so deeply Interested In the task thnt
will bring about a unity of spirit and
they will discover that tho things that
havo Impressed them as churches nrq
not so essential as they had believed.
"We believe that this movement Is
of God, nnd He has moved In the
henrts of men for a broader view and
greater united effort to bring tin
Kingdom of God to earth."
Envied the Tailor.
When ""Douglas Fairbanks was n
little hoy, five years old. he lived In
Denver, nnd he wus tilwnys sent to bed
much earlier -than ho wanted to go.
Opposite his bedroom was a tailor
shop where the lights burned brightly
long time after Doujlu went to
sleep. He used to lie and watch tho
Industrious tailor, and ono day he sur
prised his father by saying that he
knew what ho wanted to do when ho
grew up; he would be a tailor.
"Why?" said his father.
"Because," said Douglas. "I could
sit up then ns long us I wanted to all
night If I pleased."
