THE RED CROSS AND THE CHURCHES By Dr. S. Parkes Cadman The Eleventh Annual Roll Call of ithe American Red -Cross, November 11-24, assumes exceptional interest this year because of the extra-ordinary burden placed upon the Red Cross by the Mississippi flood. It met the emergency so splendidly as to de serve the gratitude of the nation. Its continuing responsibility for dealing with the after-effects of the flood gives it a special claim upon onr generous support at this time. Not since the Great War has there been such a demonstration of the value of the Red Cross, and its cap acity to handle the greatest disasters, as during the year that is closing. I believe the American Red Cross merits and has the confidence and unqualified support of the churches of the land. As president of the Fed eral Council of the Churches of Christ in America, I express the hope that all the members of all our churcher will particpate in the inspiring work of the Red Cross by enrolling as members. Surely every citzen who has caught the spirit of religion will desire to contribute a dollar to thir great humanitarian service and with the gift breathe a prayer to Almighty God that the people of thic nation may bo lifted to higher planes of living through sharing with those who suffer in great disasters. GIVE FINE SUPPER The Social Circle club, comprising the ladies east of Murray, gave a very delightful supper cn Saturday evening at the library in Murray, and which was enjoyed by a very large number cf the ladies and the residents of Murray and vicinity. The club ladies had decoratel the library building and transformed it into a most homelike and cozy place, where the delicious supper was served and which made a real trat to all thosa fortunate enough to be in attendance. The slight rain early in the even ing made the roads nice for travel and g.'ive a very cooling touch to the atmosphere that aided in making the trip over to the supper from the sur rounding country one of the great est pleasure. The ladies feel well pleased over the result of their activities and the generous response that was made to their delightful entertainment.. A number of the finely prepared sup pers were sent to those who were un able to attend the event and who in this manner were able to partake of the delicious repasts arranged. The next regular meeting of the Social Circle club will be with Mrs. A. A. Young on November 15th and every member is urged to be in at tendance. Crop Yield, Farm Price are Not Stable Mmnfactarers Control Product and Cost; Fanner Cannot Forecast Output or Fix Value. During the recent debate at Louis ville, Ky., on some of the questions that involved the efficiency of. Am erican farms, the need for more fed eral assistance in research, demon stration ar.d extension work in rela tion to sril fertility and plant nutri tion or the economic position onagri culture. Chairman Butler made some impromptu observations that are de srrving cf a lot of thought. In sub stance he stated that while sheltered industries have almost complete con trol of the factors determining euc-cer-s or failure, the farmer has no control over at least five of the im portant factors of productions. With out attempting to quote Dr. Butler's exact words he rhowed that 1. The manufacturer can produce the cuantity of any product he may decide upon in advance the farmer can not. 2. He can know his cost of pro duction in advance with a high de gree cf accuracy the farmer can not. 3. He can know his Eelling price in advance with approximate certain ty prices of nearly all the farmers important products are determined by world economic forces far beyond the farmer's control. 4. He can on very short or almost no notice speed up production in re sponse to increased market demand the. crop farmer has one harxest a year. 5. He can on short notice slow down production or stop it altogether should the circumstances of the mar ket call for such action the farmer can not. One year (1914 the planter seeds 37,000,000 acres of cotton and har vests 16.000,000 bales; another year (1923) he plants almost 37,500.000 acres and makes only 10,000.000 bales. Wheat farmers seeded 75,694, 000 bushels; in 1923 a eetaogkqrd 000 acres in 1919 and got a crop of 968,000.000 bushels; in 1923 a seed ing of only 53,818,000 acres yielded 586,000,000 bushels. When a reduc tion of 22,000.000 acres should have cut the crop about 300.000,000 bush els, the actual reduction was only 112,000.000. Eamples could easily be multiplied.

He was a real worker, doing- with his hand the severe work which the time and the place demanded. Besides this work he also had charge of the sheep of the flock and their care and protection. lie was charged with taking thm cut and ac-ain in the evening bringing all of them safely back to the fold, and jphould one become crippled in any j way, be had to place it on his should ers and carry it to the fold. Then jr.gain, some times it was not possible I to return to town with the flock and he had to remain in the fields (with them as was the case of the j shepherds on the evening when the ; Christ child was born.

Dependability Faithfulness, Loyalty to the cause of the employ- er and the sheep, with many otners. l which go to make up the sum and 'substance of the life of real honest Christians. Amos learned his lessons well, and then, for he was alone with God in the great open spaces, com muned with the creator and ruler of the heavens and the earth. Therefore, when the time came for him to de liver his message to the two king doms, Judah and Israel, he did not have to wait for a call to service as do the preachers of today, but burn ing with the theme which he had been directed to deliver, he goes and in no mistakable words tells the rulers and especially of the Kingdom of Israel the doom which would come for their misdeeds. He accused them of selling the righteous for silver and the poor for a pair of shoes, and again he said.
