THE TONIC FOR TIRED FEET. Come in today and see some of Pawtucket, R. I, March 30.—The suc- cess of the world program of Methodism was reviewed by Bishop Charles Bayard the Southern New England conference of the Methodist Episcopal church here to- | night. Bishon. Mitchell sald that while the centenary moyement scemed to come at an inopportune time, when the whole country was making large contributio to oghm— causes, it proved to be as provi- dential as any event in the history of the Christian church. “Ours,” he said, *w the only church with a world program in an hour qf world upheaval.” “Three 'years have gone by.” he con- nued, “and now let us see what has i happened. For the first time in the his- tory of the so-called ‘minor boards,’ all the apportionments to those boards have been met in full.” The centenary has proved an .incalculable boon to all the minor boards, “In the last hard financial year there was, received and disbursed by the Board of Forpign Missions, the Bpard of Home Missions,. the Woman's Forelgn Mission- ary soclety and the Woman's Home Missionary society a total of $19,387,356. Nothing like it ‘has ever been known in the history of the Christian church. “We have been regretting that only collected on the centenary pledges. Re- member that we never did before pay as large a percentage on the apportionment. The bankers tell us that our people are | paying their pledges on the centenary better than people are paying their notes in the.bank. * * * * ¢ AIl this proves that Methodists are not repudiating their vledges but are really paying them bet- ter than they are their obligations in the business world. “We must go forward because the need was never so great as now, 1f ever the losts of God were chalienged to their utmost efforts, it is now. Crime was never more rampant, home life was never so_imperilled, youth in their ‘teens were never characterized by a lower morale, the great masses in our cities were never so unchurched—less than four hundred thousand church members Mitchell of St. Paul in an address before | 72 cents on the dollar has thus far been | the seventy-five styles that we are showing, in smart, stylish footwear, Perfect fit is assured you from our range of sizes and widths.

We have in our youth unmeasured resources, Never were so many of them in church, nday school, ‘Epworth league; never Were so many in colleges; never Were so many young men crowding our theolog- ical seminarigs: never were so many of- fering themselves for lfe service; and It has been many® years since so many were knocking at the doors of our con ferences. Over two hundred thousand of our young people in our Sunday schiols joined our church last year. We have Breat resources in our lay membership. Do not suppose for one moment that we have no longer any local preachers. We have today 14,886 licensed local preach- ers, most of whom are doing active ser- vice of some sort. We have 4,393,938 full members in our churches. We have great resources In our property. We have 29,823 church buildings, valued at $257,031,306.

We have 50 children’s homes, valued at $1,700,000. ‘We have deaconess training schools, valued at 00,000. The truth is, we have more money invested in our various | hurch. educational and philanthropic | institutions than any other branch of ‘the Christian church on this western continent. “We have here in America the finan- cial resources necessary. We are the richest nation on the planet and our Methodist contingtney is in possession of its share. “All our plans focus on the redemp- tion of a lost race. All our machinery for raising money to carry on our vari- jous enterprises has but one great end in view, namely—ihe bringing of a lost at the residence of Miss Amelia Fuller on the Green passed Saturday and Sunday at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Fred A.
