Manning Leader In Battles Former South Carolina Gover nor Urges Big Program Of , Service For Church j Having giTen six sons to his coun try in the great world war, Richard I. Manning, Governor of South Caro lina during the war, has enlisted in the Nation-Wide Campaign of tha Episcopal Church to prepare it to meet after the war conditions and fight the battles of peace. Governor Manning is chairman of the Nation wide Campaign Committee for the Diocese of South Carolina. H- is a members of the Standing Committee of that Diocese and has frequently re p sented his diocese as lay-delegate to the Episcopal general convention. Five of Governor Manning's sons served in France. One was promoted to be a Lieutenant Colonel, two to be Majors and one to be a First Lieu tenant. Two of the sons were under age. The eldest, Major William ; Sinkler Manning, was killed in the -battle of - the Argonne, just a few days before the signing of the armis tice. ' , "The importance of the Nation-Wida Campaign of the Episcopal Church is vital," says Governor Manning. "It carries to every man, woman and child In the Church the message of what the Church is doing and what it must have in order to meet the crisis that now confronts the world. "It takes stock of its members and Institutions and will present the needs of every parish ind mission and the whole field of church ?ork. "The survey reveals what the church has done and what it must have in men, women, children, trained laymen and lay women, Sunday School teachers, doctors and nurses, educational institutions. "It shows that the salaries of rec tors and missionaries are inadequate and Unjust and our laymen will strive uu jui ijLrLiij-u-Lnnjiartnnmr NEGRO WELFARE IS CHURCH'S Educational Centers In Liberia And Haiti Are I " Planned TO TACKLE HOME PROBLEM Episcopal Nation-Wide Cam paign Maps Program To Foster Schools For Race In South The first practical work to be un dertaken by a church in America for the development and welfare of the Nation-Wide Campaign by which the Episcopal Church is seeking to expand Its scope as a church "and broaden Its spiritual and practical usefulness. , In" the $42,000,0.00 budget for the .campaign, the funds for which are to be raised in a one-day canvass, De cember 7, the program for expansion of the Church's work in every field gives the negro a prominent part. Education, the Church believes, is the ereat stepping-stone to the fulfill ment of the negro's destiny, and its program for the negro in the Nation wide Campaign makes education pri mary. It plans to prepare the two negro republics. Liberia and Haiti, by es tablishing more schools and more cen- Ida au uuee suuiai auu iciigiuus, . auu by increasing the working staff a- d enlarging the Church plants alrjady on the ground. In Liberia it purposes through schools, missionaiy doctors and workers to win the co-operation of 1,000,000 cannibals and devil-wo shippers of the interior, in the de velopment of the rich resources of the country. In Haiti it plans, through similar means, to halt the "retrogression cf the peasants; and give them impetus ind training or prog ress and agricultural, development. But the major work laid out by the campaign program is in America. It confronts the problem1 of the negro i.invaslon of the North and undertakes to create public sentiment in indus r trial communities for decent housing conditions for'the negroes, clean recre ation and amusement and opportuni ties' for religious life . In - the South it concentrates its work in the American ' Church" Insti tute .for' negroes. This institute is officially connected with nine negro 1 educational" institutions in Virginia, North . Carolina South Carolina, Geor gia, Alabama, Mississippi and TennesJ see. ' To these schools 1n the next 'three years the Campaign seeks to give more than fifty new' buildings, an . equal number of additional -teachers hundreds of acres of ; land, large Quan tities of new" equipment. : It purposes to create a fund by which other negro institutions, may be aided and devel, oped by the Church. . New undertakings are provided for the negroes ,.ot th Virginia Islands, the Canar Zone, Cnba, the Dominican Jtetubllc-which' wili : briug schools and hospitals and aiissiohs to prepare them for true citizenship. - AIM 1 LoyallriW or, Is o eace .V.' i - .V.V." Richard I. Manning. to provide fair and living salaries for them. "The Nation-Wide Campaign makes a definite plan and for the first time the Church has a program which calls for service. "The information thus carried to every family cannot fail to stimulate interest and quicken its spiritual life. The aroused conscience of the people will inaugurate a new era in the Epis copal Church, and It will ris to its responsibilities and duties." Governor Manning served his state as chief executive for two terms. Soon after his graduation from the Univer sity of Virginia, he began farming in his native state of South Carolina and has been- engaged in fanning ever since. RELIGIOUS TRAINING FOR BOYS AND GIRLS One Million Members Sought for Episcopalian Sunday Schools. TO AWAKEN CONSCIENCES Hearts and Minds of Young Seen as Fertile Field for Mes sage of Nationwide .Campaign. To increase the number of boyi and girls in the Episcopal Sunday Schools from 500,000 to 1,000,000 in three yean time is the goal set by the Church School program of the Nation-WId Campaign of the Episcopal Church. This Is to be accomplished by th children themselves under the direc tion of the rectors and Sunday School officials. While it is sought to raise mora than $42,000,000 In the Nation-Widt Campaign tobuild more ehurches, schools, hospitals, orphanages, recto ries and community houses it is far more than a mere financial drive. It is a' campaign to awaken tha science of the church to face its new obligations resulting from the world war and to carry the truths of relig ion to the minds and hearts of the young. Adherents to the Episcopal Sunday Schools" of"the country will not be sought in this program from children attending other Sunday Schools, but from among those who do not go to any. Canon Gabriel Farrell, thb exec utive of the Sunday School program, has set as the task of tha recruiting phase of the Nation-Wide Campaign in the Church schools the bringing of religious education to those who- are without it. Extreme care will b taken not to draw children away from other schools. The recruiting campaign will fall on Sunday, November 30, the Sunday preceding the every-member canvassof all Episcopal communicants for" con tributions to the $42,000,000 fund. On; that day certain boys and girls of th individual Sunday Schools will be sent out in pairs as recruiting, off i cers. They will be provided with a list ot-.children on whom they. ar to call and with special enlistment cards on which to enroll new pupilg; Former members 'of the chureh schools who have dropped out will be sought out and every means of persua sion used- to induce them to return The recruiting of f icers in fact, every member of the Sunday School will be prepared for this phase of the Na tion-Wide Campaign program through a period of preparation extending over the three- Sundays preceding recruit ing day when the purpose of, the cam. paign the value of the .Sunday School and the reasons for enlisting others wlll.be discussed. Essays will be pre pared ana reaa on tnese subjects. On November 30 a pageant, or mod ern mystery play, will be presented by pupils in many Sunday Schools ,m place . of . the regular Sunday mom i u6 service, ims win illustrate in' a aramatic .way the reasons for the Na- tion-Wide Campaign., the needs it is io iuum ana the means ' by which they ca- be filled nd th nt .hM the Sunday Schools oan play Into i campaign. . 1 wfi fP w Report ofthe Condition of the t PFOPLES RANK & TRUST CO. at Tryon,;in . the State ,of North Carolina, at the close of business.
