The sermon was characterized by
depth of thought, convincing logic, and
clearness of presentation, and yet SO
simple that the little children heard
him gladly. AS the speaker eloquently
pleaded for personal conservation of
every life to the Lord with the divine
assurance Of making plain all paths,
many eyes were filled with tears and
hearts were moved to higher and more
noble endeavor. The missionary ad-
dress at the evening service was a
strong appeal for the evangeliZation
of the world in this generation, based
on the success attending the work Of
missions in the past and the present
resources of the Christian world. The
business like way in which the move
ment Of worldwide evangelization Is
being prosecuted today means the real
ization Of our expectations. The
Northern Presbyterian church has as
sumed definite responsibility for one
hundred millions Of the people Of the
heather world and has set as its an
nual contribution to foreign missions.
the sum of $6,000,000. The Southern
Presbyterian church has assumed the
responsibility of reaching at least
twenty-five millions Of the heather
and has set as its annual contribution
to foreign missions $1,000,005. The
speaker reviewed the fields in which
the Southern Presbyterian church is
laboring, viz, The Congo, Africa, East
Brazil. West Brazil, North Brazil, Mid
China, North Kiangsu. Cuba, japan,
Korea and Mexico. Two hundred and
sixty missionaries. are now employed
and thirty are under appointment to
be sent out at an early date. Four
hundred and fifteen adults were bap-
tized in addition to large number OF
infants last year by the nine ordained
missionaries Of the Southern Prssby-
terian church in Korea. During nine
months of last year over two thousand
were baptized in Africa by the ten Or
dained missionaries of the Presbyte-
rian church. Many other striking facts
of the success of the foreign work
were given The address was listened
to by an attentive congregation from
start to finish. The visit of DR.. Reavis
will not soon be forgotten by those
who heard him Sunday.

ABLE YOUNG FlNANclER.

II Is rather an unusual thing to hnd
young man under twenty-one who
thinks more Of making and saving
money than he does Of spending IT.;
but Mr.. c. ]. Hughes, local agent of
the Farmers Co-operarlve Demonstra-
tion work, has called the attention of
The ENQUIRER to the case Of boy un-
der nine, who II he is spared and keeps
on the way he is going, will make his
mark in the business world some day.
The little fellow Is Master Robert,
son of Mr.. ]. w. Belts, who lives about
three miles south Of Yorkville.
Robert has among other things, a
calf, eight guineas, a Wyandotte COCK
and fifteen hens, and credit OF $4l.lb
in his savings account in bank, all ac-
cumulated principally as the result of
his thrift, economy and business judg-
ment.
Upon inquiry it develops that the
little fellow has been developing hab-
its of economy and thrift since he was
about three years old. He began by
saving the eggs of hen that was as
signed to him by his father as his own,
and when there were enough eggs to
warrant their being converted into
cash, he kept the money against fu-
ture needs, and 1t was not a great while
before he began to drift into other ven-
lures.
One of Roberts most successful
deals was in the purchase Of calf for
81. His uncle pastured the calf for
the manure, and the grown animal was
finally sold for $25. A deal that was
not quite so lucky involved the pur-
chase of SOW with litter Of pigs for
$11. The SOW and all Of the pigs but
two died. He gave one Of the pigs
to his father for trouble in connection
with the raising and finally sold the
other for So.
Not long ago, young Robert bought
a Wyandotte cockerel for $2.45, and la
ter he bought another calf and a pig,
and Is carefully looking after the i'll
crease Of his different investments.
Some Of the neighbors who have
been watching the little fellows deals
with much interest, say that he knows
the crow Of every rooster and the
cackle of every hen on the place, and
he can tell from the size, shape or COL
or of each egg which hen laid it. He
has a surprising stock Of information
about poultry, live stock and general
farming, especially for a boy of his
age, and there is no doubt Of the fact
that If he keeps on in the direction
he has been going, his accumulations
will eventually amount to something
worth while.

EVERY citizen should remember the
fact that the integrity Of the courts
depend more upon the juries than up
on any other consideration. People
who do not know, often charge alleged
shortcomings to judges and other court
officials: but the juries constitute the
mudsill Of the whole system. And up
on the integrity of the courts depend
the liberties of the people and the ex-
istence of civilization.

escape a civil war that will tear her

The news Of the sultan's flight has not

Where Are You At?

This weeks Independent has another
of editor Hockley's little joker editor
ials. He complains that so many
Democrats are tariff Democrats and
should be read out of the party, calling
them traitors and hypocrites. Then in
few lines later he endorses the demo-
crat who support protection princi-
pies. Bless your soul, if you rid every
tariff democrat out Of your party, you
would not have votes enough in Penn
sylvania to get place on the ballot.
This great and growing Nation is a
rock-ribbed tariff country and every
time the democratic party evades the
tariff issue and attempts the Cleveland
or Bryan eyasive tariff planks, they
are licked out of thoir boots. This
country, especially the laboring Gle
ment, will never vote to fill the lano
with Coxey's armies and tramps, never
compel the American mechanic and
laborer to wear the Cleveland "hadge"
we all remember so sadly. "The late
Samuel j. Randall was /. protective
democrat" and he honestly served his
country and received plaudits of all for
his gallant stand for the right. Tariff
for revenue only would pauporize the
American laborer and bring destruct-
ion upon the country. The Republi-
can party enacted wise tariffegislation
and will continue to do 50 in the future
with the aid of patriotic honest sena-
tors and congressman. Your old
has been threshed so many times that
it resembles a singed cat. It's all rot.
We believe in building up and not in
tearing down the wall erected around
the American industries and the Amer
lean homes and not in pauperizing the
American laborer on level with the
pauper European laborer. The land is
full of honest tariff democrats who will
continue to vote with the Republican
party and send protection congress-
men to Washington long after you and
tariff for revenue democrats are forgot
ten.
When you kick all protection demo
Gratis out of the party you failed to find
week ago, you will have mighty few
left. Keep right on watching this
mighty country boom when president
Taft places his signature to the new
tariff bill soon to pass. 1t will be
protection measure, pure and simple
ard as McGinty said, DON'T You For.

COKE OVENS FIRED UP,

Business seems to be picking up in
some parts of Cambria county. The
Clearfield Coal and Coke company will
fire up 100 new coke ovens which have
been constructed recently. The big
demand for the fuel by the iron and
steel industry will enable the company
to dispose of its output. The new
ovens are equipped with the improved
washer and crusher and the company
expects to-. turn out coke equal to
any manufactured in the United
States.
