Many Are Finding Peace With
Their Saviour-Sunday
Meetings Thronged
GET RIGHT WITH GOD"
Is The Watchword of Evangelists
Hart and Magann-Big Sermon
Planned for Sunday.

The Uuion Revival Meetings at the
Nj. r. Church are indeed wonderful.
Mr.. Hart is wonderful preacher So
many are saying He is the best
preacher | ever heard. II never
heard his equal etc. etc. Surely a
more helpful evangelistic team never
visited Belding. Sunday was a
great day. The afternoon meeting
was thronged with men and goodly
number found peace with God,
among whom were some of the lead
ing business men. Sunday night
there was a great crowd. A busi-
ness man said there has never been
so many people in the church since
ii was dedicated Mr. Hart preach
ed on the objectionable sin" and
many said it was the most awful SER
mon they ever heard yet declared ii
was every word true, which meant,
I'VE must get right with God soon
or we will never be saved" 1t was
a great day and over fifty gave their
hearts to God.
Tuesday night he preached on
The Sin of Cards and Theater," and
people who honestly said, II don
see any harm in these and the dance
these things were so awfully wicked.
] am glad to know it, | shall never in
dulge in them again,
Every service is so helpful the peo-
Pile feel they cannot miss one o.!
them. Mr. Magann's singing is like
Mr.. Hart's sermons, hot from the
heart and go to the heart. The
kind that lifts us up and makes us
feel that life is worth living.
Sunday will be a great day. All the
Sunday schools of the city will meet
at the Methodist church at $3.50 and
each school will be by itself, until
opening service and enrolment is
taken and Mr.. Hart will then take
charge. At 10:30 he will preach and
at o'clock a jubilee service for all
the new christians and then Sunday
night closing sermon on Calls of
God" Many great truths have been
stamped on the hearts of all who
heard this man, but above all others
he has brought home to the people
of Belding a realization of the neces-
sity of getting right with God
Mr. Hart knows he is rapidly work
ing his life away but he rejoices in
the splendid results and is willing
rather to let the fluid life ooze away
than see men and women sleep them
selves into eternal death.
People who are not right with God
better sit up and take notice.
People living outside of town en-
tertained to dinner Sunday free, and
urged to come.

Ed. Trail and John Dehn Have
Leased Their Buildings at
Good Rentals.
CLOTHING AND SHOES
Abe Friedman and Orlo Morse Will
Return to the Silk City and Opeu
up Business Soon.

Since the local option measure car
ried it has been question as TO
whether the buildings occupied by the
saloons in our city could be readily
leased for other business ventures or
whether they would be idle and bring
i'm no revenue to the owners, the ques-
ton seems To have settled itself, how
ever, and all the buildings will be oc-
cupied.
Last week Mr.. Abe Friedman, who
has been in Portland for the past two
years, was in the city and leased OF
Ed. Trail his building on Main street
for clothing store which, will be put
in shape at once. The many friends of
Mr.. Friedman will be pleased to have
him among Us again as citizen and
business man. John Dehn has leased
his splendid location on the corner of
Main and Pleasant streets this week TO
Orlo Morse of Bellevue for shoe store.
Mr.. Morse is former Belding boy
and an excellent business man, who
has conducted successful business at
Bellevue for the past seven years. The
building will be put in first class shape
and he will occupy il on the first day
of June. Mr.. Morse's many friends
will be pleased to welcome him home.
The building recently occupied by A.
j. Hochradel has been leased by Mel
vim Curtiss, who intends to open up a
cigar store and will also fit up the
place for rest room and the sale Of
soft drinks.

The Wisest Commuter
on Self Control

Written especially for the Evening Edition of the sTAR

hour comes his ideas are all twisted around because
he is NOT SURF OF HIMSELF OR HIS UDG

"Now the main thing is to cultivate your judg-
do it is to have a frank talk with yourself occasionally.
II used to think that when a man talked to him
self there was something the matter with him, but now
/ have found out that it is nothing more nor less than
a man talking to the fellow who does his dreaming
for him."
by the way. judge said the Newly Married Man
from Caldwell, you are going to give us a talk on
dreams some day
Il am" replied the. judge. "but do not butt in just
yet; 1 am talking on self-control.
Now I want to tell you something that 1 have told
you before-that unless the parents of this country
teach their children self control in about ten years from
now we are going to have a very exciting time"
What about the school teachers of this country?"
asked the Jam Salesman.
why the point is that the school teachers have
to do twice as much work as is necessary because
children are not trained properly before they reach the
schoolroom."
But how are parents to teach their children self
control?' asked the Lawyer from Caldwell.

ONLY A CATSPAW
FOR EAST JERSEY

the construction of a trunk sewer in the Passaic valley, because
it wanted to make a water contract with Jersey City, and there
was talk by Jersey City of a fHering plant on the Passaic at
Belleville. Paterson was pushed forward to oppose the sewer.
When the extravagant project of an enormous reservoir, with the
dam at Mountain View to flood a large section of the Passaic val
ley, the cost to be saddled upon the principal municipalities, was
presented, chiefly in the interest of the East jersey Water Com
pany, Paterson was again thrust forward to pull the East Jersey
chestnuts out of the fire. The State was told that Paterson
needed this reservoir, to cost at least $500 900, and couldn't
possibly get along without it. Now it is well understood that
the East Jersey interests are opposed to the acquisition of the
Wanaque watershed by Newark. At the meeting of the State
Naser Supply Commission last week representatives of that com
pany were cheek by jowl with the representatives of Paterson,
on the alert to see that Newark did not get away with a water
shed that would be such a profitable asset for the company itself.
And in point of fact. the real question as to the ownership of the
water rights in the Wanaque lies between Newark and the East
Jersey Water Company. Paterson has no need for it, has no idea
of acquiring it and has no means to pay for it.

FL TNG IN THE AIR
SOON PRACTICABLE

work done there, the world is face to face with a revolution in
transportation and communication. He believes that flying in the
air will soon rival railroads and automobiles. The civilized world
is gradually coming around to the same belief. Since the time,
not long ago, when the Wright brothers made their demonstra.
tons at Fort Myer the development of the heayierthanair ma
chine has been extraordinary. 1t has attained greater results in
a much shorter period than any other great invention that may
be classed among the utilities of the world. The most encourag.
ing feature of this development is the number of men who are
engaged in it. Not one mind, but a thousand, n studying and
working out the problems of aviation. Not one man, but thou.
sands of men. are willing and anxious to risk their lives in order
to make travel in the air as practicable as travel on land or water.
We have yet to witness failures of effort, and perhaps not a few
tragedies, but failure with such men as Wright and Curtiss and
Others is only a door to success, while human life is the penalty
the world must always pay for the benefits it receives from its
inventions and discoveries.

your own affairs than is any other person. This
thought may come to you in the same manner as a
dash of cold water after a hot bath, but neverthe-
less it is true.
Fully 80 per cent. of the people in the world do
not have a definite idea of what they want.
Again, 80 per cent. of the people in the world do
not get out of themselves the best that is in them
selves.
'The business world is in a very peculiar condition.
1T is in this condition because of the growing
scarcity of common sense and the art of self-control.
There has come into the American life a great ten
dency to depend upon other people. This dependence
upon other people together with the absolute absence
of self-control is the stumbling-block in the pathway
of nine out Of ten young men in the world today.

IF ALL LAWS
WERE ENFORCED

enforced, few people would escape Jail sentences or fines, and the
offenders would include the most respectable members of society,
not excepting even many of those who are most insistent that all
laws and ordinances should be enforced and that all persons who
violate them are justly punishable. In lawmaking we attempt
too much. Public regulations, obligations and restrictions are
piled up until they become indistinguishabe; officers of the law
are ignorant of many statutes, policemen are obivious of many
ordinances. And it may as truthful1y be said that it is just as
well that a large number of the laws are forgotten. 1t would be
better if the whole body of laws was sfted out, to get rid of the
imperative statutes that only serve to bring contempt upon the
law itself. |

abroad three weeks, and is, therefore, slightly out of touch with
the situation. 1t will not take him long to gather up the threads.
September will be ushered in on Wednesday, aud September

upon Republican party politics next year. Mr.. Stokes has re-

Republican politics in New Jersey will now develop the conflict
