Kendrick Gazette Ralph B. Knepper, Publisher Entered as second-class matter 1892 at Kendrick, Idaho, under the Act of Congress of March, 1879. Kendrick people should ap preciate the water system owned by the town. While it is not perfect byanymeans.it represents a very small expenditure compared to the troubles and expense neighboring towns are having. Troy spent be tween five and six thousand dollars on the dam that was built to store water for the town and this amount is now a total loss. Kendrick's supply is almost unlimited as soon as the work now planned to be done on the system is completed. The installation of two new fire hy drants, one at the corner of the E. P. Atchison property and the other at the corner of the Kendrick Auto Company's garage is one more sub stantial improvement in the system. The hydrants were put in this week. We are great people, only we need a little fixing.

We are a great people and we are going to get away with it, but Providence will have to Keep on helping, as it has done in all the past.—Lewiston Tribune.

They are uniting because the task before the Church is too great for any one denomination; because there must be no au plication of effort ; r.o waste. These churches know that the world needs many things; but it needs Faith most of all. They know that there can be no final solution of our economic problems that is not a spiritual solution, based on the teachings of Jesus Christ and His Golden Rule. They have had the courage to survey the whole task, and to ask for a budget large enough to sustain (l) the work abroad, (2) the work at home including the church's part in the huge task of Americanization, (3) the colleges and (4) hospitals supported by the Churches, (5) the reli gious training of the young, and to provide (6) a living wage for the Church's ministers. The budget is large in the aggregate; yet if each person who loves America would increase his contribution by oniy a few dollars the whole amount would be easily subscribed. We face the task of rebuilding the world. Let the cornerstone be a strong and vital church in every American community ; and the measuring rod by which the builders build must be the Golden Rule.
