SUGGESTIONS for Fail Work.

For some time past there have been
many letters from both old and young
asking for suggestions that will be
helpful in club, school and Sunday
school work. In most instances the
social side is emphasized with a re-
quest that some scheme to make
money be combined with it. Until the
time comes when we all set aside a
proportion of our income for charit-
able work on the same business basis
that we regulate our other expenses
there will always be demands for
ideas with which to cajole the al
mighty dollar into empty treasures
and sugar-ceat the pill of getting
money to keep the wheels of great
charity organizations turning. True,
there is the social side; that we all
need and is worthy of. consideration.
Owing to lack of space have con-
densed these schemes into as few
words as possible, leaving them to be
enlarged by those who try them.
eFor Watermelon party; which
is to be given by a church, society,
the, Invitations had this unique fea-
ture: There was a pen and ink sketch
of a man. under which were these:
alone, admission '15 cents;" next a
sketch of couple with; ten cents
each; a third sketch showed a man
with two girls and the words five
cents EACH"
A novelty was a Popcorn" social,
the admission was an ear Of popcorn;
then there was hot butteIed popcorn,
popcorn balls; the room was deco.
rated with ears of popcorn in fes-
toons, and there was hot corn meal
mush served with cream and sugar
in quaint little blue bowls, which were
purchased at ten cents each as souve-
Mrs. Then there was a regular old.
fashioned corn-hulling bee, the com.
pany being divided into sides. The
corn was then put in bags. pound
to each and it was distributed to the
various charitable institutions where
there were children.
An easy way of saving money is
carried out by class of boys who are
in school; they save every penny bear
ing the year date of their birth. AS
these pennies are collected they are
turned into common treasury and
given at the end of the year to a
charity that all decide on. AS most
of them have enlisted the services OF
their family and friends in WATCHING
for these special pennies, there is us
ually quite,a sum collected with very
little trouble.
Twelve young matrons organized &
magazine club in. this way: Each one
subscribed for periodical, the choice
being made at meeting in Novem
Der; these were exchanged and al
finally collected at one house. Wher
there were ~ of each the members
met, tied them in piles and sent then
to various institutions, goodly share
going to the jail and settlements
where they were distributed where
they would be most appreciated.

will be in effect from Sept. Is to Oct,

This year the West looks more
promising than ever. Now is the time
to secure land at low prices, and, at
the same time, to visit the many inter-

engagements may be made.

The union services of the churches
Of the city were held last night in the
First Universalist church The pastors
of all the city churches were present

About 100 persons were in attendance
which is most encouraging for a week
day evening and that when so much
of a special nature was on hand In
the various societies of the town. Rev
Charles E. Beals of the Congregational
church preached a sermon that ap-
pealed to the people and was a great
spiritual uplift to all. The following
is the text and brief synopsis:
I'VE are ambassadors therefore on
behalf of Christ, as though God were
entreating by US; we heseech you on
behalf Of Christ, be We reconciled to
shd3' III Cor. v:20.
The preacher said in part:
"Ihe figure of the ambassador is
significant when we consider the rela-
ton which exists between God and
man Christ himself is All ambassador
This means that God and man need to
be reconciled.
Men MAY sin against God. Sin is a
death to the highest. truest and Divin-
est in man. Every man falls when he
accepts the lower for the higher. the
untrue for the true, the impure for
the pure There is no unity in a life
where sin is, and there can be no peace.
but it is not Gods will that any
should perish. Christianity teaches
that though men have sinned and have
rebeled against Him. God himself has
sought to destroy the enmity and bring
about the 10y Of the reconciliation. God
was in Christ reconciIing the world
INTO Himself. Christ was an ambassa-
dor sent from the court of Heaven. he
was the Prince of Peace.
"While on earth there were neces-
srry limitations to the scope of Christ's
work. He was limited by the physical
ard also by the mental and moral con-
dition of those among whom He Ia
bored. However. He finished His own
work. Then He gave unto all His fol-
lowers the great commission. To them
He committed the ministry of reconcil-
iation.
eff we share in the fellowship OF
Christ's work we are truly His ambas-
sailors. If We have had vision of Je-
sus Christ there is laid upon ,ls
henceforth the solemn obligation te
obey that vision God is waiting to pour
out His spirit We should see visions
ard until we have visions we canont
prophecy.
"Our message to men should be born
out Of experience. 1t will have d.
vine authority. It will be message Of
reconciliation. We may point men tC
