Third-We must show young peo-
pie that mission work is the biggest
thing in the world and show them
that it is divine enterprise that
has for its ultimate end and aim
the making of the name of Christ
known in every corner of the earth.
Fourth-What have the young
people to do with the saving of the
people, Do the people need saving?
In answer to the first question our
young men and young women bear
in themselves the destinies of their
generation. Upon them rests as
great responsibilities as rested upon
their fathers, and perhaps greater.
The fact that many young men and
young women are christians, mem
bers of the church, members of the
lB. Y. p. U. makes it all the more
urgent that they should be awake
| to their responsibilities. AS record
ed in Mark 12:30-S1. Jesus gave
the commandment, Thou shalt love
the Lord, thy God with all tiny
heart and with all thy soul and with
all thy mind and with all thy
strength and then again, Thou
shalt love thy neighbor as myself
Fifth-The study of the bible is
essential to a proper understanding
of all the elements that enter into
and build up strong christian char
acter. The bible readers course adj
vances beyond the weekly meetings
| Its. purpose is to acquaint our youne

The Author of Graustask.

Before George Barr McCuteheon
wrote "Graustark," he was a strug-
CLING reporter OF Chicago news
paper, his fellow scribe and chum
was Geo. AIDE, the celebrated writer
of humorous stories. Each cOnfided
to the other his ambition TO be a
great author and they discussed lit
erature in all its phases. Bach VOW
ed that he would write book and
adopt a style different bom any
other writer, and readers are fully
aware of the fact that. both have
faithfully kept their promise. Their
first efforts brought them fame and
fortune and ii is peculiar colnci-
dence that these two authors who
trod different literary paths and
whose writings are as far apart as
the north and south poles, should
make their start of success at the
same time and arrive at the goal
simultaneously.
Today Mr.. McCutCheon and Mr..
AIDE are at the head of American
literatures and others name on
book is a guarantee of an original
and brilliant story.
Graustark, Mr.. McCutcheon' first
novel, caught the fancy of book low
ers; his peculiar method his vivid
description of an incident, the nat
ural dialogue and the clever way he
has of making his characters hui
man, all tend to fascinate the read

A PAPER.
Young People in the Il. Y. +. u
Why?


Why?
The following paper was read by
Lola Ownby vt the b. Y. p. U. rally
at the Baptist church Sunday night,
and is published at the request OF
several members Of the union:
Why should young people be IN
the Baptist Young Peoples Union
and other departments OF the
church?
BY having our young people in
the B. Y. P. U. work is the first
step toward preparing them for
more efficient service In the cause
of the Master. Young people In these
meetings have to more or less ex-
tent some influence over the Older
people and by showing a disposition
to do something for the extension OF
Christs kingdom on earth they VIII
infuse in their elders a spirit OF ae-
tiyity that will accomplish untold
good for the church. If a young man
or Young woman gets up in meeting
and makes an interesting talk or
reads a paper on something interest
ing and instructive topic this effort
NAV be the means of attracting the
attention and arouslng the enthus-
iasm of the older people and thus
they will become regular attendants
upon the society's weekly meetings.
As the B. Y. p. L. was Instituted
mainly for the purpose OF giving
the Younger members of the church
something to do they should not
sit back and wait for the old people
to take the lead. For society TO
be real live and aggressive it should
be vitalized with that buoyant force
so characteristic of youth. ACTIVITY
is a potent factor in the life or the
society and If its aims and purposes
are to be conserved the young peo-
pIe must be up and doing. The so
ciety furnishes them wide field TOT
endeavor and those who take ad-
vantage OF the training 1t atfords
will be the best equipped for taxing
upon their shoulders the burdens
of the church when their seniors
have passed from this life into tina!
life where they will reap the full
fruition of service Of love and sell

A bald headed person does not
