Think n Little.

One of the dangers of the times is
that in the incessant activity character
istic of our modern American society we
lose the taste and power for meditation.
Much of the reading of current litera-
ture is not calculated to develop much
of thought. but is more of the nature of
pastime Many read for entertainment
or at most for information. This may
be pleasing or instructive, but for the
development of the spiritual nature one
needs TO read in different manner. De-
votional reading of the Bible is more
than study of its history, chronology.
geography and biography. 1t takes a
section and examines it carefully to
find the principles of truth and right
eousness which underlie the narrative.
1t then seeks to apply those elements to
the circumstances of daily life and pray
erfully to find the path of duty for 1t
self We need more of this kind of
reading and thinking in all our Chris
tian lives.

The Beautiful Cantata
Presented Last
Evening
To a Delighted Audience.
Ghosts Are Becoming Too Fa-
miitar.

The beautiful cantata, Ruth" which
the unsteady inclined people OF the Con-
gregation and M. +. churches have been
rehearsing for some time under the direc-
ton OF Mr.. John M. Pearson, OF Calumet,
came off at the M. E. church last evening.
The cantata was very well rendered and
reflected credit on those who took part.
The music was the principal part and was
interwoyen with the story OF Ruth,
which was carried out about as follows:
Severe famine prevails in Bethlehem
Judea. A messenger brings the tidings
of plenty in Moab and beseeches the peo-
pie to cry to Jehovah for help in their
trouble. Elimelech and Instantly, Naomi
and two sons flee to Moab. The two
sons there marry Ruth and Orpah. Dur
ing a period OF ten years the three, Ruth,
Orpah and Naomi, are left in widow
hood. They bemoan their affection, and
Naomi resolves to return to her home,
where plenty is now restored. Orpah is
persuaded to go TO her people, but Ruth
"cleave unto her mother-in-law" and
returns to Bethlehem. The inhabitants
greet them with surprise when Naomi
tells of her sorrow. Ruth soon goes to
the barley fields to CLEAN. Boaz. a man
OF wealth and power, finds her in his
fields cleaning and becomes enamored oil
her, At night fall she falls asleep among
the sheaves and Boaz sings to her a
Slumber Song. The next day an Israel
itish Woman prophesies better things
for her and she awaits to see the result.
According to the Oriental custom the
property is redeemed and soon after
Boaz and Ruth are married. Boaz cele.
brates by making merry" and the scene
closes with praise to God for His mercies
