With the completion OF the Panama

nation that controls Cuba can inevit-
ably maintain control over the Allan

II is said by theatrical experts that
to make it possible for highly artistic
plays to be financially successful In
America it will be necessary to create
a larger leisure class One trouble with
starting these leisure classes among
business men is that the moment a
man gets a little leisure either the
tax collector, coal man or grocer pops
up and reduces his cash reserve be-
low the legal limit.

SOME NOTIONS OF NEELY OF
PREACHERS WORK.

Some people are interested in the
tendencies of thought and opinion in
the churches. At the Central Ohio
Methodist Episcopal Conference held
at Sidney big guns like Rev. L. w.
heard. Rev. Munhall spoke on
the Bible and in opposition to some
Munhall and Bishop Neeley were
tendencies of modern criticism
he delivered two hour dis
course and is degraded as one
of the brightest men in the church.
Bishop Neelys charge to the new con-
ference licentiates was in substance as
follows:
You should be properly prepared
and duly qualified. Ambition is not
a good reason 10 enter ministry. The
work is not easy. 1t is not a position
for money making. 1t is not a place
10 make study along special lines.
You should not enter iif you do not
believe you are called, there are three
calls, the call of mans own nature
the call of God and the call OF the
church. The ministry is an honor
able position, responsible position, diff
ficult position. You should be a
preacher you can give something in
your sermons that can never be got
out OF printed sermons. Education is
necessary in general way and es-
pecially along theological lines. Con-
tinue to work The non-graduate may
yet get ahead of the graduate by
hard work You need moral prepara-
tion, be honest and upright, honest in
every word and action. You need rel
iglous, preparation. You need person
al religious experience so you can say
you know. You need refinement, must
be social, be model gentlemen. Must
be a called, prepared and consecrated
man. Must not take time TO speculate
or engage in secular pursuits. Have
something worth saying when you
preach and say it clearly and with
force. Preach TO convince and follow
with persuasion. Have pleasing man
ner. Preach as if you were thinking
Put points in your sermon. Preach
the pi.ie and interpret the Bible ac-
cording TO the Methodist Episcopal
church. Wait until higher criticisms
is settled before you present 1t TO your
congregation. Be positive in your de-
clarations. The positive potent The
doubter makes no impression. Be a
defender of the faith. The people are
swilling to be fooled but not all the
sfime. Dowieism is an example OF
this and it went TO pieces. Mrs. Ed
/. dyslm is the feminine OF Doweslsm.
LIN preaching attack the error and not
the individual and say as little as pos
.sible about the error but present the
struth. Preach on general themes and
you will not have 10 move every
year. Do not preach panctifcation or
temperance all the time. DO not harp
on some reform all the time. Have a
round course of sermons that will
take in everything. II you do this
you can stay five or ten years in one
place. Make fresh efforts. Have a
few great sermons. Sermons should
give information, inspiration and con-
ISOLATION. DO not depend on sensation
aiism. Avoids faults in preaching
DO not use slang. use good English.
do not be scolder even II you are
justified. Be man as well as a min
ilster. BE pastor. Don't make long
visits. Be leader and administer

We are now fairly landed upon the
seventh great boom in the iron and
steel trade since 1870 Each of them
ran about three years During the
first of these booms QS70-7S) pig iron
was worth $50 a ton and rails $12S.
The high price on each successive
boom was lower than the one preced-
ing. The tendency was continually
Every one oe the boons
had features in common. The move
ment from low prices and depression
was always slow starting but once un-
der way the ascent was rapid. In
each case price rise was checked by
running into foreign competition. The
appearance of foreign iron in our
market was invaribly a signal for a
halt in speculation in the trade, pric-
es settling back to just below an i'm
port level and remaining on the high
plateau a year or two before appreci-
ably recedng. Lively plant ezpan-
sion was a feature OF the first year
of the boom. New construction al
ways ceases on the first clearly defined
signs that production had overtaken
and passed consumption. Once fairly
on the toboggan the subsistence of the
boom is usually as nearly perpendic-
ular as itsrise. We are now on the
verge of the importation stage.
