SUFFERERS For the purpose of assisting '1 ear- - !ng for the distressed people In the Kuropean war zone, the first presl-- . dency of the Mormon church has sug-- x t nested to all stake presidon' . ward 1 " V ' olshops and president os mis io:!S in . , v the United States that a call L I: sued ,' -- 3r contributions from all meuhtrs of , 7 . the chi:rch. It has also beenttjsted that the contributions all be 111a le at , the regular sacrament mee:lnr of , January A, 1915. The money will, all be shipped to the president ot t.te Ku-- . roju'an mission and will be d'strib-uate- d by him among the neecy and destitute In the regions of the war. The relief primarily will be for the members of the Mormon church in the war zone, but aid will also be extend-ed to other sufferers so far as the funds will permit. It Is thought that bett3r results will be obtained by so-liciting through the church organlza--.' tious than by issuing a general call. Reports have been received by the church that there are some of Its mem-bers within the war zone who are In rather bard straits, but it is though! that no cane of acute suffering has been experienced. |
