of establishing baptism as the basis
of church membership. Should this
committee report favorably, a me
morial will be prepared by the dio
cesan convention to be presented to
tho general convention meeting in
Detroit In November recommending
tho adoption of such a measure. The
Idea is considered with favor by many
of tha leading clergy of the church,
and little trouble Is anticipated In
having such a resolution adopted. If
it Is adopted It will mean that many
adherents of the Episcopal church,
not confirmed, and not now counted
as members, will be Included In the
membership list. This will bring the
number of members of the Episcopal
ohurch In the United States to a fig
ure close to three million. On this
basis the diocese would have a mem
bership of about twenty thousand.
Much Interest Is being displayed In
the election for delegstee to the gen
eral convention. The Rev. Dr. Apple
ton, reetor of Ht. Paul'e church. Har

probable candidate. Dr. Appleton was
an alternate delegate three years ago.

In the opinion of the heads of the:
Victory Loan campaign which is
drawing to a close in this district,
no group of persons in the city of
Harrisburg is more entitled to credit
for Victory Bond purchases than the
employes of the Kresge five and ten
cent store, in Market street. George
O. Schermerhorn is manager of this
store.
"I think the example set by the
young women of the Kresge store
is a remarkable one," said Chairman
Donald MeCormick this morning. "It
doesn't surprise me when men of
means or men who are making big
wages or salaries buy Victory Bonds,
but when girls working for moderate
wages guarantee that they will take
Victory Bonds and pay so much each i
week on these bonds, I think that
they deserve great credit."
The picture of the employes of
this store was taken one day last
week when almost the entire per
sonnel of the establishment was reg
istered as bond owners.

jg Sweaty Feet Wrong
v and Unneccessary w
Excessive perspiration from the feet is
not normal and should not be permitted.
It is annoying, embarrassing and ruinous
to shoes. This trouble can be absolutely
and quickly overcome. Cal-o-cide did it for
the soldiers in training and for millions of
feet in the past ten years. Get a twenty
five cent package from your druggist. The
very first treatment brings most gratifying
results and in a short time the trouble will
positively be terminated. Some of the
worst cases have been mastered in a week.
Cal-o-cide also gives prompt relief for ach
ing, tender, puffed or calloused feet. It
goes right into the pores and corrects the
cause. In addition, each package of Cal
o-cide contains special little plasters that
will remove the worst corn in a hurry.
