tion. The Sunday evening meeting
was devoted to general instructions to
the parents
Those seat ed on the stand were the
presidency of the religion classes OF
Cache stake, President Isaac Smith
and counsellors, Orson Smith and the
visiting elders from Salt Lake city,
Louis A. Kclch aud James A. King.
The meeting opened with congre.
gational singing "llOw firm found
alton" and prayer by Orson Smith.
President w. X Durham in report
ing the classes Of Cache stake said In
part: "In the eleven wards OF the
stake all are in working order except
two, both of which will in the near
future be prepared to work on the
program layed out for the winter.
There is more interest manifested
by the children, parents and officers
than ever before. We have the hearty
cooperation Of the presidency Of the
stake and all the bishops, The stake
conventions are held monthly and we
have normal class which convenes
every Sunday morning at the b. Y.
college. 1t comprises some of the best
material we have and all teachers OF
the classeses are invited to become
members as far as is possible 1t is
earnestly desired that parents attend
our conventions and ward classes, and
become informed as to what is being

the young. Parents should guard
their children carefully, protecting
them as they advance in years from
the uoluting sins Of the world. The
home is the foundation Of all society,
and in them there should be suitable
adornments and appointments that
the memory of home can be forever
cherished in the minds of the young.
Our homes should be clean and pure
in every sense OF the word, as the
good spirit will not sojourn or dwell In
unclean places. Parents should not
become So absorbed in their financial
affairs that when they reach home
they are cross and snappish with
their children. This course will not
pay i'm the long run. They should be
true guardians Of their children, pro.
tecting them from prevailing sins.
There should be no room in the church
for saloon men, gamblers and immoral
characters. Five cars Of tobacco were
brought into Utah in 1908 and Others
besides outsiders use It, The primary
object of the saints in gathering was
not the acquisition Of wealth; other
things are more lasting and will bring
better results.
Elder Kelch said there is worship in
singing as well as in preaching and re.
fcrred to the singing Of the children in
the afternoon. He observed that
there were but few boys in attendance
compared with the number Of girls.
Where were the boys? AS rule the
latter do not attend the class work as
they should. Parents should encourage
their boys to attend these classes,
where they can learn TO sing, pray and
express their ideas.

posed to call II The Palace" but this
was opposed on democratic grounds.

called the Executive Mansion" 1t

There are l,SiO,2SO more men than
women in the United States. and the
same proportion prevails in almost
every other country. The only excep-
ton is in Paraguay, where there are
more than twice rs many women than
men. This Is due to the fact that
some years ago, in a political revolu-
ton and war with Brazil and the
Argentine Republic, the men were al
most eXternlnatcd.

but dimly and vaguely understood even
In Chicago. But no college, university
or seminary will ever teach a boy or
girl a purer love, a higher faith, deep
er zeal or a simpler understanding than
he was taught at home by teachers
whose minds were rich only in love.
And these are the things that endure.
Samuers training began before he was
weaned.
Had the old priest had the whole
training of him, he had grown up In the
house of God, a goddess and q repro
bate man like the sons of the priest.
He was not the product Of the taber-
nacle. He was a mothers boy. Train
ing is better than education. What we
need is not more seminaries, and not
more denominational colleges. We need
more mothers. The great affairs of
brass before the temple, whereoq we
lay the sin offerings Of confession, and
the golden altars of incense In the holy
place, and the golden ark of the COW
enant itself in the holy of HOLES, can
never take the place of the family
altar. And the priest whose brain Is a
mine of learning, whose heart Is devot-
ed and consecrated to the cause of
Christian education, can never teach
the boy or girl as mother can--can new
er train up your child, mother, as you
can, IL you will. The home altar Is the
fountain head of religious education.
Train up the child That's what you
do with q soldier. You don't give him
a book from which to learn his manual
of arms and the school of the soldier.
The sergeant takes his gun from him
and shows him how. Shows him how
to stand. Shows him how to walk. Does
everything for him, and makes him dc
1t exactly like his instructor. Until by
and by it is easier for the soldier to
stand properly, erect and statuesquei
than 1t Is to stand like a loafer. 1t Is
easier for him to do things correctly
than incorrectly. And he looks like a
soldier, not because he has been taught
to look like one, but because he is one"

TAKE TRIP TO SAN DIEGO

Watch Operation Of New Fire
EndIna

The members of the fire commission
and Mayor McAleer will go on q trip
to San Diego Tuesday to see the fire
engine OF the Ahrens Fire Engine COM
pany of Cincinnati tested in that city
John p. Ahrens Of the Ahrens company
appeared before the commission yes
terday and told Of the merits of his en-
gine The bid of the Ahrens company
to supply the city of Los Angeles with
q fire engine was slightly lower than
the bid of the American-La France
company, and II the test to be made at
San Diego is satisfactory to the mem-
bers of the commission, 1t is believed
that the Ahrens engine will be pur-
chased.
r. S. Chapman, representing the
American-La France company, spoke
briefly to the commission In regard to
the engine he had for sale. He stated
that the city now has In use six of the
American-La France engines, which
have given satisfactory service.
The contract for four chemical wag-
ons was given to the American-La
France company for $SSO0. The recon-
mendation of the fire commission that
the four wagons be purchased will be
referred to the city council.

The Best Guaranty Of Merit

Every bottle of DR., Pierce's world
famed medicines leaving the great iabo;,

upon its wrapper all the ingredients
entering Into its composition. IhlS TACT
alone places DIR. Pierce's Family Medi-
cines IN class all by themselves. They
cannot be classed with patent, or secret
medicines because they are neither. This
Is why so many unpreJudiced physicians
prescribe them and recommend them TO
their patients. They know what they
are composed OF, and that the ingredients
are those endorsed by the most eminent
medical authorities.
The further fact that neither DIR.

great stomach tonic, liver invigorator,

uFavorite Prescription for weak, over
worked, broken down, nervous women,
contains any alcohol, also entities Tnem
to a place all by themselves.
Many years ago, DIR, Pierce discovered
that chemically pure glycerine, OF proper
strength, is better solvent and presery-
ative of the medicinal principles resid'
ing In our indigenous, or native, medi'
cinal plants than Is alcohol; and, further,
more, that 1t possesses valuable medicinal
properties of it's own, being demulcent
nutritive, antiseptic. and most efficient
antiferment.
Neither of the above medicines con,
tains alcohol, or any harmful, habit
forming drug, as will be seen from a
glance at the formula printed on each
bottle wrapper. They are safe to use and
potent to cure.
Not only do physicians prescribe the
above, non-secret medicines largely, but
the most intelligent people employ them
people who would not think of using
the ordinary patent or secret medicines
Every Ingredient entering into the com
position OF DIR. Pierce's medicines has
the strongest kind OF an endorsement
from leading medical writer's of the
several schools of practice. No othei

GREAT ORGAN is PLAYED
Temple AudItorIum's Magnificent Inc
strument ls Given First Public
Trial

lFIdN
The great $4,000 pipe organ Of the
Temple Baptist church pealed forth for
the first time last night at the Southern
California Baptist convention. It had
originally been the intention to give the
first public recital under the auspices
of the Auditorium company, but In
stead the assembled Baptists were giv-
en- the first opportunity of hearing 1t.
The affair came as q surprise to many.
Prof. Bruce Gordon Kingsley a promi-
nent London organist who was former
ly in st. Paurs cathedral, presided at
the organ, and the music he brought
from the great instrument thrilled the
thousands who heard It.
The chimes are q great feature OF the
new instrument. They have been placed
in swell boxes, and the music can be
made to appear miles away and can
gradually be brought closer.
The services In the Auditorium Sun
day morning will be opened with the
ringing Of the chimes, and Prof. Kings
ley will also offer another selection,
possibly from Elgar. Batiste's Com
munion in G" Is also promised for the
near future.
In the evening the selection will be
an andante movement from Tschai-
kowsky, with the combination of the
noted preacher DR.. Robert ]. Burdette,
and the same organ and organist which
the Auditorium company will offer In
concert later on.
