WE EXCHANGE
RECORDS

Bring US your old disc records that
you have grown tired of (either CO.
lumbia or Victor), and we will ex-
change them for the new Improved
Columbia Disc Records. We will al
low you 80 cents for your 1O-inch
record and other sizes in proportion.
The new Improved Columbia Records
are of elegant workmanship and are
d decided advancement in the art of
record making. They have full,
sweet tone, and owing to the manner
in which they are made they have
less scratching tone; the needle seems
to run smoother on the record. We
also wish to introduce to your notice
the new Grand Opera Sound Box,
which is designed to obyiate the
scratch of the needle and at the same
time retain the full volume of tone.
We will exchange the new Grand
Opera Sound Box for any of the old
style Columbia sound boxes now on
the market. Call at our warerooms
and get our plan of exchange. We
carry the largest line of records in
the city.

IL Ia a singular thing that with the
more general observance Of Thanks
giving day has come its moral decline.
Before the civil war its yearly recog-
milton was far from universal; III lact,
IL was kept up In the central west
chiefly by descendants OF New ENG,
land families, and for years II received
no official endorsement from the gov
eminent. But its celebration was as
distinctive as that Of Christmas or that
of the Fourth of July. In private II
was marked by family reunionsi IN
public by grave discussions of national
themes from the standpoint OF the
Christian believer. Its observance mas
spread now TO all our states, and II Is
generally recognized as popular holt

degenerated In every respect until

There can be no doubt that Christ

are some declarations to that effect, by
the inspired writer's:
"Al the ends Of the world shah re-
member and turn unto the Lord, ana
all the kindreds OF the nations shan
worship before thee For the kingdom
is the Lords ana He is the governor
among the nations"
"He shall have dominion also from
sea TO sea, and from the river unto
the ends OF the earth
They shall call Jerusalem the throne
or the Lord and all the nations shall be
gathered unto II, to the name Of the
Lord, TO Jerusalem; neither shall they
walk any more after the imagination OF
their evil heart"
And the Kingdom and dominion and
the greatness Of the Kingdom under
the whole heaven, shall be given TO the
people OF the Saints OF the Most High
whose kingdom IL an everlasting king
dom and all dominlons shall serve and
obey Him"
such Is the testimony OF the Scrip,
lures. Were It not for these positive
declarations as 20 the future of the hui

ton, But the Lord Is mindful of His

For centuries Christian people main
tanned that the Scriptures not only re-
cognized but taught, slavery as a
righteous principle And yet the nfu-
ence OF Christianity upon the world
was so positive as to compel the aboli-
ton of human slavery, even by the
civil law, slowly but surely through
out Christian civilization, and today he
would be a strange student Of the Bible
who should claim that II was possible
to read into the Scriptures an author
izatlon-much less an approyal--of the
principle OF human slavery. The on
ward movement Of the great principles
of Christianity have removed all the
obstacles presented by the literalist
and by those who brought to the study
of the Bible a preconceived notion Of
human society.
