A church in any language means a church, and so does a school and hos- pital, but European- deaconess homes suffer in the translating. To the aver- age Amerlcan the term “deaconess home” suggests a stone building of most of them aged and decrepit, with white lawn streamers bencath their chins, take their ease and spend their declining days puttering around with window boxes and Dird cages. All wrong ! Webster's Unabridged fails to en- lighten him, but the National Lutheran Council, with headquarters at X\'ew‘ York City, is spreading the definition far and wide. A deaconess home means a soclal welfare colony main- tained by these women church work- | ers. “A hospital, clinic, homes for crip- | ples and the aged, schools for the deaf and blind, a day nursery, milk station, and a social service bureau, are the institutions that usually make | ON SAID, "IR.

" {NOVEL DOG-RACING DEVICE iScheme of Chicago Man Does Away With All Possibility of Cruelty to the Rabbit, To encourage ;ll‘e sport of dog-rac- ing, Owen P. Smith, a Chicago man, bas hit upon the idea of providing a stuffed rabbit, which, by mehanical means, is caused to run around an oval or circular track with a bunch ot bow-wows in pursuit. A small car, driven by an_electrie motor, makes the circuit of the track on rails. Outwardly from it is ex: tended horizontally a loug steel rod, which carries a rubber-tired wheel and a little platform sypported -above the wheel. Upon the platiorm is fas- tened a stutfed rabbit, for bait. The dogs entered for the race are kept in a cage until the moment of the start. They are liberated after the Dbit has passed the cage— t is to when bunny has an allowance of 20 yards or so—and then comes the up one of these welfare centers. In Amerlea there are numbers of them 3 patterned after the models in Europe | where they have existed by the thou- ! sand for many generations. In Euro- | pean citles of any size they serve the neighboring communities and have closer touch with the people than any other organizatien. Nobody is as busy as these hardy, rosy-cheeked women who give their full time from morning till night, or from night until morning, managing and running their big plants that take care of people. Deaconess homes over there are not retreats in any sénse. They are ac- tive, progressive, public places. But even so they are pretty independent of the outside world. They do their own work and have their own food supply. The deaconesses make use of their varied hobbies, so there are bee specialists, poultry experts, gar- deners, dairy farmers, and orchardists who know all about pruning and spray- ing, and keeping the children from pick- ing green fruit. Most of them, of course, do this work durlng their rec- reation hour after finishing a day of nursing, teaching, sewing, or visit- Keeps Dogs “On the Hop.” test of canine speed, the winner be- ing the dog that passes under the wire tirst. * N It is not mednt that"thé r‘sgb\,it shall be caught, its speed befng so adjusted as to enable it to Keep aliead ofits fastest pursucr.

A carpenters’ strike would be a small matter to them be- cause thebe is always some demure- eyed sister who can wield an accurate hammer. This sketches the average deaconess lhome in Central Europe in normal times. Such times arg past history to a great degree, antedating 1914, Since then war has crippled the work so that it is scarcely recognizable. Their houses were shelled, robbed and burn- ed. Sisters were shot and carried captive. But those who were left kept steadily at their posts, and braver, harder work at reconstruction is not being done in the world. Communi- ties are so wholly dependent upon them. Nobody else knows how to do anything in times of distress. Relief funds sent by American Lutherans have been largely dispensed throwgh deaconesses in each town. DBy this simple financing they are enabled to handle the emergencies through the channels of their own regular work. Some of the welfare centers have been restored and are doing heavier work than cver before, though with depleted stafs (l in-bitter poverty. In the World Service Campaign that the National Lutheran Council is to conduct the last two weeks in October to raise $1, 000 for European Re- tief, deaconess homes have a large place in the budzet for the‘coming year.
