200 citizens will forward the campaign
from April 19 to 27, in t»n effort to
raise $38,000 for a new church build
ing which will occupy the present site
and front the chapel which has been
on tie spot of Old {.'amp (,'urtin for
the last twenty-five years.
The citizens around Old Camp Onr
tin who are recipients of the influences
of the church und who consider the
Camp Cur'in church as the community
center, started the project. With a
Sunday school of over 700 and a mem
bership of 5'70, the present chapel is
over-crowded and to make adequate
room they are compelled to build. The
new church will have rooms for the
social features, the institutional acti
vities and adequjte auditorium room
and Sunday school class rooms. The
present chapel will be altered to ac
commodate the intermediate and adult
classes of the Sunday school.
Oeneral chairman. J. A. Haas, an
nounces the committee which will for
ward campaign during the eight days.
In the men Is division there are twenty
teams of five men each, each team
•being headed by a captain. The wom
en's division of 100 women is organ
ized likewise. This committee of over
2-00 will call upon the people of the
community, members of other churches
in the city, citizens.of the community
who reco,rnize the worth and influeuce
of the church and who regardlese of
their church affiliation or whether
they have any or not, will be likely to
support the project. There are many
identifying themselves with the move
ment as team workers who are not
members of the church.
Headquarters have been established
in the old chapel, Sixth and Gamp
streets, where the executive, work of
of the campaign is carried on and
where 3,000 letters are being address
ed. The office is equipped with Bell

' Steel was ugain the disturbing feature
. of to-day s stock market, opening with
r u sale of 1,000 shares at 12S to 129,
• against yesterday 's final price of 125.
1 The stock steadily ascended to 140,

. an advance of 20 points in less than
. ten minutes. From this level it de-'
. scended even more speedily to 130, los*
; ing three-fourth* of its pyroteehnieal
rise. The balance of the list was
strong but orderly, Union Pacific,
1 Southern Pacific and the coppers rising
frcm 1 to almost 3 points, with further
. substantial gains in automobile shares.
Trading was active during the first
I hair' hour and embraced all varieties
of issue.

feverish course, however, falling hack '
from 136 to 131. In the general list
higher prices were made during the sec

check the advance, U. S. Steel, I'nion
