They know exactly howl every , dollar every pennywill be used for the great est good without waste. A world survey was made by the churches that astounds business men in its thoroughness. County after county was studied; the coun tries of the world were visited and reported in minute detail. How the Interchurch World Movement Originated Our churches said: "The task of meeting the urgent needs shown by the world survey is too great for us to do individually as denomi nations. ' We must do this work together". So thirty great denominations are cooperating each keeping its own purpose and identity but all working together under the nanfe of the Xnterchurch World Move ment. Because of this cooperation, it is estimated that over one million dollars will be saved alone in elimi nating waste and duplication. Did you know that 3c is more . , than the churches average from each member per day? v WE Americans may be, thoughtless. . Sometimes we may appear selfish. But when a great need arises, no one can say that we have ever shirked." S -. m ; - " Ask any son of France. Ask any soldier of Great Britain. Or ask any Armenian mother or a girl with a red cross on her sleeve or one with a tambourine in her hand. And now the churches come to us for help otir churches. Not begging. ' Not asking alms. But with heads lifted high facing a task.. so worthy that we, as loyal Americans, ought to . feel it a privilege to help. ' ( y " Here is the Plain, Unvarnished Truth We don't need to be told that the church is the heart of the. Nation. We admit its influence ror lasting good in -our children. We see its stabilizing influence on our com munities. We know a little of its great hospitals, its homes . for children, its schools and colleges here and abroad. But most of us do not realize how pitifully inadequate t"hs support of the churches is when compared to the urgent needs. Less than 3 a day! In spite of the great tasks which we expect our churches to carry out, those of us who give to the church and the number is all too few are now giving an average of Jess than 3? a day for all church purposes. Less than a day. mK f Shall our churches go on? It is for you to say. ? Without your help the work of your church must be iust that much less.

"1 her face as Lillian put the QUCS- D. t. A., Wamm and W. 1. T. clubs as- tioit'that she had no susoicion of the truths There was honest nega tive in her eyes as she answered: "No, 1 do not think there was any one else." .. "Did Mrs. Stockbridge know her husband did not love her?" "I think she suspected it." Alice Holcombe replied, "although Ken neth never by word or look gave her reason to do so. In fact, I I have often thought that he was kinder to her because he did not love her than he would have been to a woman he really cared for. He seemed to be on his guard constantly." "Of course," Lillian assented, ab sently, as if her thoughts were else where. "Mrs. Graham tells me that she had been sent to a sanitarium by her people several times. That would strongly indicate insanity, in cipient if not developed. Did you ever kuow whether at those times she was angry at her husband, re vengful against him or cherished the idea of injuring herself?" "Both," Alice Holcombe returned. "Her whole idea seemed to be to hurt herself in some way and to blame him for it. She was always declaring that he kicked 'her or struck her, and she would show the bruises to prove her statement. Then afterwards she. would weep, beg his pardon before everybody, and show clearly without any doubt that she had 'been , lying. And now her peo ple are using those" very incidents, distorting them against Kenneth." "Ah!" "The exclamation breathed by Lillian was so low that I hardly heard it. As I glanced at her her eyes were glittering pin points, the lids narrowed as 1 had seen them only when she was ferreting out a difficult trail. Did she ever tell vou these things and afterward confess the false hood?" she asked presently Often," . Alice Holcornbe replied. ''You can remember them dis tinctly, could swear to them if ne cessayy?". . :'? :? . . "Yf-butohwm 1 have to" She-' "stopped1', threw up her head bravely. Please forgive my weakness, she said. ."I I am not quite' myself. Of course I will do" anything that is necessary. That is better. Lillian said grave ly, for across her face had crept a tinge of the disdain she feels for faltering. And it is more than probable that you will never have to appear in court. Now, one question more, and we can turn our atten tion to a more important subject. Do you know what familiarity Mrs. Stockbridge had with poisons?" She? knew all about them, Alice Holcombe replied. "Her uncle is a druggist, and she helped m the store when a girl. But she attempted to poison Kenneth and herself on one occasion, and they riave care fully guarded her access to poisons' ever since.

"I haa been under the doc tor's care for five weeks. . . I was pretty bad, and I was just as nerv ous, as I could be. ... . I could not sleep at night until 10 or 12 o'clock.

"It's the only ugly thing in this whole business.

CARLBERG, Republican Candidate, for State Senate NEW-S ITEM The General Manager of the Water Board, who takes over management of Gas Plant under city ownership, has requested City Coun cil to make provision to pay off $1,000,000 of gas bonds each five years.

U 0, 6 O ' I stand for Dollar Gas, knowing that it is a possibility by virtue of the purchase of the' Gas Plajit by. the city of Omaha. Occupation taxes and general taxes now paid by the Gas Com pnny, as well as' the annual dividends paid to its stockholders, will be eliminated under municipal ownership j However, if it is the intention of the general manager to pay off $1,000,000 in debtedness each five years, we will not get Dollar gas. It is a cross injustice to saddle the entire cost of this plant on this generation in order to present the net generation with a debt free Gas. Plant. We are entitled to Dollar gas NOW. There is no justice in paying $1.35 for gas in order that we mayr-be trenerous to posterity. If the repayment of the Gas Bonds is spread over a period of fifty years w will get Dollar gas im mediately, but if we are t6 pay fbr.the plant in fifteen years we will have to pay more for gas than we did under private ownership." , - If nominated and elected to the State Senate I pledge my self to promote legislation that will insure Dollar Gas NOW.
