Is Result.
The Interchurch World Movement of
North America Is an attempt by for- |
of the various
nominations of the Unit-
ward-looking leaders

ed States and Canada
the resources in men, money and mate.
rial of Protestant America.
Historically it is the logleal out-
growth of a tendency of the national
boards in each denomination to form
working alliances among themselves,
in which each board shall preserve its
identity and control its own personnel
and treasury.
In former times, the home mission
society, the foreign mission society,
the church extension society and the
various philanthropic and eleemosynary
agencies of any denomination conduct-
ed their affairs independently of one
another. Each surveyed its own re-
stricted territory, prepared a budget
of money and workers for its own
purposes and made its own appeal to
its constituency for support.
This could only mean that these
figencies were more or less in com-
petition with one another; that there
were waste and duplication of work
and money, and that among them all
some work was neglected and some
denominational resources were entire-
ly overlooked. Because of their
specialized training, the leaders of
each agency regarded themselves as
peculiarly fitted for their tasks, and
jealously regarded attempts at outside
interference.
Decide on Experiment.
After decades of such haphazard
methods, the leaders of one denomina-
tion decided on an experiment. They
thought it would be possible for the
agencies to get together for a com-
mon study of all the opportunities and
of their brotherhood, to
make out a unified budget of men and
money, and to conduct a concerted ap-
peal for funds. It was made clear
that each constituent board should
preserve complete autonomy.
When the board representatives met
they found it possible to ellminate a
great amount of organization ex-
penses. They ultimately worked out
a budget and plan of campaign that
was satisfactory to all. This resulted
in the famous “Men and Millions
Movement” of the Disiciples of Christ,
which brought in what was then con-
resources
sidered the staggering sum of $6,-
800,000 for a five-year program. The
members of the communion were So
pleased with this business-like method |;
con- |
of conducting affairs that they
tributed even more generously
had been expected.
The success of thls enterprise revo-
than
lutionized the whole business of
church financiering, The other great
denominations Immediately adopted
the plan. The denominational associa-
tions have come to be known as ‘“for-
ward movements,” and some thirty of
them are in existence today. Each one
| has clarified all the information in re-
lation to enterprise within the denomi-
nation, and has reduced the business
of collecting and spending money to a
science.
World-Budget Formed.
The Interchurch World Movement is
simply a plan to do interdenomination-
ally what the forward movements
have done within the various com-
munions, It means that every denoml-
national budget will be made in the
i light of world needs instead of In the
semi-obscurity of incomplete informa-
tion. It means that contributions to
one denomination will not be in waste-
ful competition with contributions to
another, because all the fellowships
will have worked out their program
together,
The functions of the Interchurch
World Movement are threefold. First,
it collects, by means of world surveys,
all the pertinent facts on which de-
nominational programs may be built.
Second, it sets up the practical ma-
chinery of co-operation, Third, it acts
in an advisory capacity whenever its
advice is requested.
The Movement has nothing to do
with organic church union or matters
of creed or doctrine. Each constituent
unit preserves complete autonomy, and
is bound only so far as It wishes to be
bound. Financial appeals are made
by each denomination to its own con-
stituency. Any surplus in undesignat
ed funds, over and above the actual
cost of administration, will be prorat-
ed among the denominations engaged
in a given financial undertaking.
An illustration of one thing the
Movement can do is to be found in a
western community of 1,600 persons
in which thirteen denominations have
been supporting separate churches
with missionary funds, while an adja-
cent territory of 50,000 persons has only
three churches. By seeing that all
missionary boards are supplied with
information in such cases, the Move-
ment will make possible a wiser dis-
tribution of funds.
Its first goals are to reduce unneces.
gary duplication and overlapping to
a minimum and to bring about an in-
telligent division of labor in unoccu-
pled fields. The Movement is, at bot-
tom, an attempt to put church busi-
ness on the sound, business-like foun-
dations on which the great commercial
institutions of America are built.

PARCEL POST MARKETING
OF SIRUP BRINGS PROFIT
Maple, cane and sorghum sirups
{may be readily shipped by parcel
| post if properly prepared for ship-
[ ment, according to investigators in
the Bureau of Markets, United
{States Department of Agriculture,
|who have made experimental ship-
| ments from many parts of the coun-
[try, over many different mail routes.
|Of 394 shipments only 3 showed any
material loss because of leakage and
[
ithis was due to unusually Tough
| handling. The average distance
[covered by these shipments was |
|greater than sirups are likely to be
sent by mail under ordinary condi-
tions.
Two types of 1-gallon tin contain-
ers were found satisfactory for par-
[cel-post shipments. Both types have
screw caps and are - provided with
outer cartons of corrugated paper-
board. Snugly fitted pieces of cork
in the caps cover the opening in the
can when screwed down tightly. Such
| packages properly wrapped and se-
| curely tied, marked “Fragile,” as re-
{ quired by the postal regulations for
packages containing liquids, will car-
ry without danger of leakage in the
mails, While the 1-gallon can is
most commonly used, any size up ‘to
5 gallons may be shipped under the
present parcel-post weight limit of
10 pounds. Light but substantial
wooden crates should be supplied for
the larger containers.
Suggestions on obtaining cus-
tomers and dealing with them by
parcel post may be found in Farmers’ |
Bulletin 922, ‘“Parcel-Post Business |
Methods,” which also suggests how
customers may get in touch with pro-
ducer. A copy of the bulletin will

HOPPE® FEEDING GUARDS
AGAINST FAULTY RATIONS
With scarcely an exception, every
|
|
poultryman and every farmer who floor space per bird.
keep hens should hopper feed dry
mash. If the hens are allowed free
range, as they should in the case of |
the farm flock, they are expected to
pick up vonsiderable part of their
living from the fields and barnyard.
It is difficult to estimate how much |
of such.material the hens are finding
and as a result the farmer may think
that the hens are getting plenty of
feed, when as a matter of fact they
are not getting more than enough
to keep them alive, and therefore
they can not do much in the way of
laying eggs, but a dry mash provided
in a hopper, where the hens can
help themselves at will, will insure
the flock against insufficient of
faulty feeding and will result a
greater egg yield.
*Often, too, even in the of
those who are specializing in poultry
keeping, judgment as to’ the amount
of feed to give aby hand may be
faulty, and a supply of dry mash in-
sures the hen an opportunity to get
what she needs in order to remain a
producer.
In raising young stock, specialists
of the United States Department of
Agriculture point out, is important
that the growth be rapid and even.
A setback in growth is a handicap
from which the chick never entirely
recovers. Regardless of how the
growing stock may be fed, it is,
therefore, the best policy to keep a
supply of dry mash in hoppers where
the chicks can help themselves, as
this will insure the chick getting
ample feed all the time and will pro-
mote greater feed consumption and
more rapid and even growth.

A dry, porous soil, such as sand
or gravelly loam, is preferable to a
