PINK RAMBLER ROSES.
They Lead the Crimson HANDLERS In
Vogue.

The crimson rambler has suddenly
come into fashion and in all the re-
cent accounts of functions in London
one reads of its being employed as a
decorative bloom. 1t has been a
great favorite in this country for
some years, but the pink species Ia
now to rival it.
In June and early July one sees II
all through the suburbs, and 1t has
quite taken the place OF the honey
suckle, the Virginia creeper and
other climbers for summer houses
and trellis covering.
Some years ago it was introduced
by the florists here as potted plant
for Easter, the blooms being forced.
Before that time, both in England
and France, 1t was considered as
rather an ordinary variety of the rose
and was not held in high esteem.
A new rose, faint pink and single,
a climber and evidently a wild flower
in it's native land, has been used In
large quantities for decorative pur.
poses. The blossom is quite small
and feathery, but massed the plants
are most effective. The demand for
pink flowers of any kind this year ex-
ceeds that of any other color. Dur.
ing the winter the Killarney rose led
even the sterling favorite, the Ameri.
can beauty.-Town and Country.

The Maxlm nIuIner PeacemaI.er.

Government tests Of this noiselesa
rifle indicate that Mr.. Hiram Maxim
will soon carry the world few inches
nearer to peace. A weapon which
can kill man at long range without
any more fuss than pun Of gas and
hammer click helps not little TO
convince disputants that arbitration
is the better part OF patriotism.
Could the inventor make his gun not
only smokeless and noiseless, but GER
tain OF its aim. 90 that any raw re-
crult might bring down his ambushed
foe merely by wishing 1t and pressing
the trigger, the device would be still
more welcome. The possibilities OF a
silent gun In criminal hands are dis
quietlng. But this very fact may
hasten the better public control OF the
sale and use of all death-dealing in
struments. which to-day may be pur-
chased by any boy or burglar in
pawnshop or hardware store. II this

The Real Cause of Weakness,

The decline In numbers among the
free churches of Great Britain is a
subject for lament. The English pa.
pers are filled with anxious discus
sions of the fact. 1t appears that the
passion for souls is lacking and evan.
gelism Is discredited. The churches
are doing little more than the ethical
societies are doing. SeVenty-fve per
cent. of the population are reported
as being either Indifferent or hostile
to the churches.
The churches are Sunday clubs,
reform societies or benevolent agen.
cies. They are not homes for the
soul. Prayer Is not vital but for.
NAL Conviction is not present.
They have the ethic Of religion
without the evangel. This condition
Is q warning to all the world. The
primary note In all our preaching
and work should be evangelistic.
Stagnation and death stare us in the
face when we cease to seek the lost
Baptist Standard.

The Value and Power of Missicnary
lnformation-Acts II. q, 1921;
IS. 6-12-(Studies in Church
Benevolences.)

1t seems strange to us that Peter
should be compelled to stand up be.
fore congregation of Christians and
defend himself because he had
preached the gospel to the Gentiles.
And yet we are told that the apostles
and brethren "contended with him"
because he had fellowship with for.
eigners. Peter, however, "rehearsed
the matter from the beginning" and
they were soon convinced that he
was right Those who contended
with Peter were prejudiced, and their
prejudice had to be removed. This
was done by information.
Prejudice and Indifference concern
ing missions have existed in the
Christian Church from the time OF
Peter until now. Information will
remove 1t now as 1t did then. The
church Will never care whether the
world is saved or not until it knows
the need Of the world. The mission.
ary from the frontier and the far
distant land who pleads for money
and help will find many Christians
who will contend" with him, and his
pleadings will be In vain unless they
are backed up by information.
In Peters day an address was a
sufficient means Of spreading this In.
formation. but he had only a few peo-
pie to inform and only one incident
to relate. Now the campaign has
broadened SO as to take in every
home and foreign problem. and mill
ions of Christians must be informed.
The missionary cannot meet the entire
church face to face, and the problems
are so many and so varied that study
is absolutely essential to compre.
hensive understanding.
Under these new conditions new
methods must be used. Experience
has shown no better means OF accom-.
plishing needed results than the
method proposed by the mission
study movement.

Simplicity Of Language.

To a person whose attention has
not been drawn particularly to the
subject 1t will be surprising to call
to mind how many of the most SUI
blime and comprehensive passages
in the English language consist Who'll
ly or chiefly of monosyllables.
OF the sixty-six words composing
the Lords Prayer, forty-eight are
OF one syllable. OF the seventeen
words composing the Golden Rule
fifteen are OF one syllable. The sen.
tence most descriptive OF the great
creative power of Jehovah is ex-
pressed entirely in monosyllabies.
"And God said, let there be light;
and there was light"
One of the most encouraging prom
ises OF Scripture is expressed In M
teen words, all but one of which are
monosyllables; II love them that love
Me; and those that seek Me early
shall find Me-" In our dealings with
young people, indeed with the masses
of the people, care should be taken
to use simple language. Sun
