1t is shame and disgrace,
both to the town of Beach and the
N. P. railroad, that the walk to
the depot is not lighted at night
in some manner. Even people &C.
quainted with the locality risk
their necks every time they go to
the depot at night, and strangers
surely fare no better. 1t would
seem as though the read might
maintain a decent crossing over
the tracks, as we'll as an adequate

stumble over the rails are trying
to reach the depot in order to
patronize the road.

The new passenger schedule
which went into effect last Monday
is giving anything but universal
satisfaction, although in the
matter Of carrying mails it must
be conceded that the service, so far
as Beach is concerned, is vastly
improved. Now if the rail-

to halt No. 6 on its eastward flight
we don't know but that we would
almost be contented. Such an
arrangement would surely elimin-

In his opening address Mr. Monro ex-
planned the purpose of the conference by
referring to the call which was issued
under the auspices of the National Bible
Institute and signed by prominent lay
men, which said:
There is no evidence that Jesus Christ
ever intended that the work Of winning
all mankind to Him should be confined
TO the few of His followers who make up
the trained ministry. Inc Spirit-giyen
power of witnessing was not limited to
the apostles; il was offered TO all the
disciples.
\ widespread awakening to this fact
is chara cteriznE these Opening years OF
the present century. and in this awaken
ing there lies more hope than il any
other fact in modern Christendom.

The Christian people of America accept
