With tongues ready to tell and hearts
ready - receive the message of saliva
ton. the men Of the &C thrcnged the
Young Mems Christian Association rooms
last night, and before the meeting closed
many more hearts We're gladdened by
the acceptance OF God as their leader and
guide.
The speaker of the evening was Profess
SCR Chester, who spoke on the subject
What Portion Of the Theory Of Evolu-
ton May We Accept" Mr.. Chester took
as topic for the evening Seeking At
ter Truth" The talk was extremely
interesting and aroused the men pres
ent to 4 high pitch of enthusiasm. Mr..
Chester said. speaking along the line of
seeking after truth, that that is what
men are doing today ard what we must
do-seek for the truth of matter. If
We do this. truth is sure to come TO the
top. He also said that W., are to show
our profession by our lives and not SO
much by our words. Whenever We see OF
hear a group of men talking oil soma
subJec. on which they are all agreed it
always is worth our while to pay some
attention and give our thought to what
they are saying. 1t always shows A
healthy condition VIXEN men are ready
to accept theories better than their own
Whatever has been worth while for any
body of men is deserving the greatest at
tention that we can give it,
One of the pleasing features Of the
meeting was the proposals for member
ship of niEe new names. These men
have lately started in the BowIey Green
mission and their words were of great
pleasure to their college mates. During
the service three new men professed
their desire to lead a Christian life. This
meeting was one of the most successful
that has ever been held in the associa-
ton rooms and it is the prayer OF every
loyal heart that the spirit of them NAV
last as long as the college may stand.

ANOTHER RAISE.
American Paper and Pulp Association
Will Advance Price Of Paper.

Chicago, March 1.-THE generally
congested condition of railroads and the
resultant shortage of cars will cause an
advance OF prices on manufactured
products OF the American Paper & Pulp
Association for 1907 and 1908. This was
the result of meeting Of the Eastern
and Western members of the associa-
ton held here yesterday.
The manufacturers expressed the
opinion that as business is now active
and prices Of manufactured articles
firm, the price is likely to be advanced
because Of both the scarcity of raw ma
terial and the existing car shortage
The greatly increased cost of produce
ton during the last year was also CIV
en- as a reason for advance.
The preservation of forests was dis
cussed at length and a resolution was
adopted ard ordered to the department
of agriculture, asking that measures for
the protection of lumber producing re-
gions he rigidly enforced.
