!. The Church and the Age.'.

A large audience gathered in The
First Presbyterian Church on Monday
evening under the auspices of the
Mems Club of the Church. George W
Gore presided. The speaker of the
evening was the Rev. Hugh Black
M. A., the famous Scotch preacher
who spoke on 1.-The Church and the
Age" The problems he took up were
intellectual, social and religious, ano
he urged sympathy and a study of the
reasons men have for holding theil
views. the aroushlg of public con
science. All the problems America is
facing such as the race problem can
only be met by the religious element.
God does not need America, but
America needs God. We must remem-
Der that salvation Goes not only mean
salvage, but service.

How Drunkards Are Tagged

Up at Stroudsburg when a man
drinks too much they alag" him.
Most men would rather be logged
than . tagged" Not only does it re-
fleet upon their standing and lower
their dignity before the bar but their
tongues hang out from thirst which
they find it impossible to satisfy.
When liquor licenses were recently
granted by the Monroe county courts,
the Judge took occasion to call atten-
tion to the fact that liquor was being
sold to many habitual drunkards. The
hotel and saloon men replied by tell
ing the court that list of intemper-
ate men should be made by the coun-
ty detective and turned over to them
so that they would be able to distin-
guish between who should have liquor
and who should have not The county
detective got busy on his job right
away and made up list containing
thirty nine names. Twenty-three has
no sigiticance in slang since the new
order went into effect. 1t is thirty
nine for yours when a bum wants a
drink in Stroudsburg now.

night that one of the small safes of
the company which had been left on
the depot platform had disappeared.

the police were notified. The next

peared that boy employed by w. W..
Dean had been sent to the station for
an iron box which was expected. The
only iron box he saw was the safe,
consequently he loaded that on the

Dear Sir: Here's honesty for you
North Dakota has a pure paint law.
Prof. Laid, the state chemist analyses
certain paint labeled contains on ly
lead and zinc and is strictly rure,' and
finds it no lead at all, a resinouS oil,
and benzine. 1t is, however, full
measure and contains no water.
That's like the man on trial for kill
ing his grandmother; proved that he
didn't set fire to the house.
No lead, but zinc and baryteS, re-
sinous oil, and benzine-" strictly pure
lead and zinc paint ="
Pure paint is lead-zinc-and-oil; but
that isn't all I; there is such thing as
proportion. and make. The strongest
paint is Devoe & Reynolds
North Dakota is doing handsome
thing in holding these confidence-peo-
Pile up to scorn. She gives their names
