His work k constructive 5ld men are fully con- vinced of thef- need of Savior and of their losr condition without him before they make a decision. He breaches the good old gospel in for cible, practical way, free from sensa- tionalism. and the after effects of his work are very good. Iafidelity can not stand in the way of his preaching. He is ably assisted by Prof Gates. a fine solo singer and an unusually good leader of a chorus. Anyone securing these two men I feel sure will not be disappointed. When pr. Bulgin opens up his evangelistic meetings in Phoe- nix onffarch the 10th. he will find the peoNe of OUT city anxious to give him a hearing as they always have any good evangelist.

 subject of the sermon delivered by Mr. Williams at the Christian church last night. He said: "The word faith is used in several different ways in the Bible. The meaning must be de- termined by the context He spoke of the sense faith. the intellectual faith and the Christian or saving faith. The sense faith bridges between the sen sation and tho object. The intellec- tual faith is the assent of the mind 10 the facts of history. The Christian faith on the faith of salvation is transaction. IL is the act of trust by which a sinner submits to Christ the Savior. Faith Is not merely assent to propositions but the submission of mana benng-to Christ-a being. Faith is the act of man moving under conviction of the gospel accompanied by the spirit Faith means coming back to Christ. If we are ever for given of our sins it must be through faith" Everybody welcome to all the services. Good old fashioned songs. Come and help US and be helped.

ION the lakes the summer hshlns
will aggregate 13O,OO0,00O pounds a

when men in wind masks sit over lit
tie holes in the thick ice and. at po-
lar temperature, watch their tie-ups.
They don't catch much, but what they
do catch they get seven and eight
cents a pound for. and thus it is posi-
BILE for these winter fishermen to earn
s12 a day. I'd have earned SIT the day
went out if had sold my fish.
