Dr. Walton took opportunity last
night of thanking the Daily Light
for Its courtesies during the meeting
and stated that he assumed all re-
sponsibilities for any errors that may
have occurred in the reports.
One of the main features of the
meeting and one about which little
has been said is the Young Peoples
service Every afternoon for four
weeks Mr.. Jolly has met with the
-Four by Fours' and "Sunbeams"
alternately. and has instructed them
and drilled them in the bible.
On yesterday the climax Of the
work was reached when the -Four
by Fours" stood an examination. The
questions put TO them wene:
Give seven characteristics of
God"
Seven ways in which Jesus is diff
ferent from everyone else"
Seven things the Holy Spirit does
for u.s."
Seven bible invitation words to
the sinnerFto come to Christ"

sus Christ
Seven things added to faith that
go to make up character"
Seven things that accompany
the growth of grace of a christian. .
In speaking of the results this
morning Mr. jolly said it had never
been his pleasure to mark such good
papers and ones which showed the
result of SO much study and interest.
When it was announced some days
ago that there would be an examina-
ton 1t was also stated that there
might be some new questions and
some of the girls studied every bible
y question they could find.
Almost one half of those taking
the text handed in perfect papers and
1t was decided. in view of the fact
that the mistakes that were made
were slight ones, that each one who
handed in paper would receive a
prize. The names of those receiving
the prizes will be published tomor-
row.
There Will be no services tomor-

Rev. G. w. Mcpherson, who in a
speech in New York recently said:
while New York is the wickedest city
in the United States, Chicago is worse
so bad that it cannot be called
American; it isn't even civilized" is
severely arraigned in a bulletin is
sued by the Chicago Association of
Commerce. Referring to Mr.. McPher-
son, the bulletin says: This benight-
ed individual should be. taught that
the Incorporate use of the tongue is
more baneful than the Incorporate use
Of alcohol or other drugs that kill; the
latter poisons the individual offender,
while the former cuts and wounds the
reputation of many" The assecia-
tion then goes on to set forth facts
showing Chicago's greatness and good
ness, its commercial and industrial re-
sources, its prosperity as indicated by
it's bank deposits, and the number of
wage earners at work, and its char

Bathing an Indian God.

Thousands of pilgrims from the va
rious outlying villages and other parts
of the Hooghly district poured in from
an early hour in the morning to the
temples of Jagernath, says the Cal
cutta Statesman.
The image of the god is placed on a
conspicuous part of the temple, so that
it can be viewed at an advantage by
the immense crowd of pilgrims, and
there at a certain fixed hour the bath
ing ceremony commences.
The most curious part of the festival
is that water is not poured on the
image of the god until certain small
bird is found sitting on the topmost
banner of the temple. There is a pop
ular belief that the bird comes from
Puri, the famous place of Hindoo pill
grimage, to Mahesh, on the day of this
festival, and his very presence is an
indication that the ceremony should
commence. Immediately after the
bath is over the bird disappears.
