Task of Organization.
Appeals for financial old to help the re
lief work of the Salvation Army, In Hol
land, whore It Is ln desperate need, owing
to the thousands of homeless refugees
who have rushed Into that country from
war-rlddnn Belgium, aro to bo made
throughout the Middle East section of
the United States by Colonel It. E. Holz,
commander of tho Atlantic Coast Prov
ince, whose headquarters are at 13th and
Market streets.
Colonel Holz said today that tho lead
ers In Holland have made urgent appeals
to the army In America to assist In
their work. Every one of their home and
their emergency shelters Is overcrowded
with refugees, mostly women nnd chil
dren, and It Is next to Impossible to nnd
clothing and food for them.
Holland Salvation Army officers say the,
conditions of tho army ln England, Franco
and other European countries aro so dis
tressed, ns the result of the financial
straits brought on by tho war and the
enlistment of so many of the supporters
und workers, that little assistance for the
refugees can bo anticipated from those
quarters,
DEPRESSION HINDERS CHARITY.
In this country Colonel Holz reports tha
army work much hindered because of the
depression that has come on during tho
last two months because of the war. The
relief departments In Philadelphia and
other cities In the East nre being called
upon by hundreds deserving employment
or financial assistance. He also says that
the applicants are of a different class
from the usual crowds found at the re
lief headquarters, many of them being
hard-working men who have been thrown
out of employment by the war.
Relief funds Intended for distribution
to the workers In Holland and tho relief
(stations in this country will be received
by Colonel Holz at hla Philadelphia head
quarters, and will be forwarded to the
American headquarters In New York,
where the fund will be apportioned.

CHURCH SOCIETY
JOINS IN CUTTING
HIGH LIVING COST
Men's Bible Class Forms
Covenant Benevolent Asso
ciation to Aid Members in
Distress.
A unique and what appears to bo a
successful effort to reduce tho high cost
of living is being made by members of
tho Covenant Presbyterian Church of
Germantown. Upon tho suggestion of
their pastor, the Rev. Dr. Harlo W. Hath
away, to cre.ite a beneficial society, a
number of benedict mombors of the men's
Bible class formed tho Covenant Benev
olent Association for tho purposo of pur
chasing household necessities nnd ren
dering assistance to an unfortunate
brother' member In periods of financial
distress and sickness.
Groceries and other Indispensable arti
cles of tho homo nie being bought dally
nt a wholesale price, In many Instances
leaving a flattering discount In the pock
etbooks of the members. A smllo un
doubtedly will light tho countenances of
many "benevolcnts" If the coal dealers
send tha price of anthracite soaring up
wards with tho mercury this winter. The
society has taken measures of precau
tion for them by purchasing coal during
tho summer mouths at a wholesale figure.
In addition to Its object of economy,
the society has assisted In furnishing
clothes and shoes for tho children of
needy families, loaned hospital expenses
for sick membors, advanced sufficient
funds for one member to continue his
studies und paid rent In two cases when
lack of employment beriously threatened
the existence of these homes.
According to Doctor Hathaway, who
has been n prime factor In organizing
the East Germantown Improvement Ab
soclation and a number of oth r progres
sive movements In that part of the city,
"It is a society to help tho respectublo
poor. It prevents the men, especially
the young married men, from becoming
discouraged and laying down. In other
words, the association helps those who
really want to help themselves."
The organization ls sustained by a
weekly payment of ten cents from each
member nnd tin ndmli-sinn fee of Jl. The
following officers guide tho destiny of
tho society: Walter S. Grlnrod, presi
dent; Frank J. Kessler, vice president;
