GROWTH SHOWN
BY BAPTISTS.
Finances of Denomination in Ken
lucky EXCEED Those of Last
Year.

The report of the financial COM
mittee of the Baptist Church of
the State for the year ending April
30, just completed, shows an in
crease of S24, 243.94 over the
amount given last year for various
purposes. The following is the
report given out by Rev. d. w.
Powell, of Louisville, correspond
ing secretary of the State Board
of Control of the church:
For foreign missionary purposes,
$37, 525.54.
Contributed to the Home Mis-
sionary Board at Atlanta, Ga,
S23, 1854.
For church building purposes,
S13,7S6.O9.
For State Educational purposes,
100000.
The report does not include the
amount contributed by the colored
Baptists. Last year Kentucky
ranked fourth of all the States in
the Union in the amount of money
contributed and it is thought that
this year this State will rank sec
ond or third.
There has been more additions
in the State this year than ever be-
fore in the history of the church.
Up to the month of March april
yet to be reported) there had been
in the State 3,747 baptisms and
1,540 persons taken into the
church by letter. Last year
showed 900 by baptism and 9S7
by letter.
The increase in the membership
necessitated the building of forty
churches in the State, with several
more under construction. Ken
lucky did not have to borrow
money last year and a number of
churches heretofore dependent on
contributions from the State fund
are now self supporting.

Prof. lOOS Resigns.

Prof. Charles Louis Loos, for
thirty years a member of the fac
ulty of Pennsylvania University,
has rendered his resignation as
professor of Greek, language and
literature, and will retire from ac-
tive connection with the univer-
sity. Prof. LoOs recently cele-
brated his S5th birthday, although
he is still man of active habits
and enjoys robust health.
Prof. Loos' resignation was re-
ceived by the board Of curators
with much regret, and his assOci-
ates in the faculty and the students
of the university, with whom he
was extremely popular, also re-
luctantly give up active association
with the nestor of the faculty.
1t is understood that the Greek
and Latin departments of the in
stitution will be consolidated and
placed in charge of DR.. Thomas b.
Mccartney, who has for some
time been an able assistant of
Prof. Loos.
The writer took the Greek
course under Pres. Loos at Ken
lucky University and is pleased to
bear tribute to him as professor
and Christian gentleman.

Shall We Pool.

The question in every ones
mouth is, Are we going to pool
this yearW Every tobacco leader
has been asked this question hun
dreds of times the past month;
and every time he has been asked
it we will wager he has asked the
party asking it, Are you going
to pool" This is the whole ques-
ton, Are you going to poole" 1t
makes little difference what the
leaders say or think, but what the
people say or think is important,
If they are going to pool, the
question is settled. If they are
not, the question is also settled.
How can we tell what they will
do9 There is just as much reason
to pool this year as there ever
was, and more; and more can be
accomplished than ever. The
business system to handle the pool
is established, the people have
money ahead, the business world
has been shown the practicability
of our plans, our opponents have
learned to respect us, fierce oppo-
sition is crushed, and those who
refuse to join heretofore are every
where declaring their intention of
being in the next time. We are
inclined to think there will be a
pool because we believe in the
peoples common sense. "A. S. of

Why Tie Does 1t.

1T isn't often that we have
faith enough in the medicines put
up by other people to be willing
to offer to refund the money if it
does not cure" SAID Druggist w.
5. Lloyd to one of his many Gus
toners, but we are glad to sell
DR.. Towards specific for the cure
of constipation and dyspepsia on
that plan.
The DR.. HowardICo., in order
to get a quick Introductory sale
authorized US to sell the regular
fifty cent bottle of their specific
for half price, % cents, and al
though we have sold lot of it,
and guaranteed every..package, not
one has been brought back as un-
satisfactory.
There are sixty doses in vial
that can be carried in the vest
pocket or purse, and every one
has more medicinal power than a
big pill or tablet or a tumbler of
mineral water.
I'VE are still selling the spe-
cifc at half-price, although we
cannot tell how long we shall be
able to do so. Any person who is
subject to constipation, sick head
ache, dizziness, liver trouble, indi-
gestion or a general played out
condition, ought to take advantage
of this opportunity" 44-46

from ten pairs to twenty-five pairs
each. Each of these pole termi-
mails will be equipped with carbon
lightning arrestors and lead non
arcing fuse cut-outs to protect the
cables and switchboard against
crosses with electric light wires.
Every telephone will have two
wires leading to central. These
wires where they lead through the
cables will be each pair separately
twisted one complete turn every
five inches. This will prevent
cross-talk and the hum of the cleo
trio light plant at night.
If all of the wires in the cables
to be suspended in Mt. Sterling
were taken out the separate wires
put eLd for end they would reach
$40 miles, or from Mt. Sterling to
New York City.
All the telephones in the city
and county will be connected
through the new cables to the new
switchboard without disconnecting
them from the old exchange, then
after all have been tested on the
new board and the operators have
been drilled in the operation of the
new board the lines will be discon-
nected from the old exchange and
connected to the new. This change
should not take more than fifteen
minutes, and very few of the sub
scribers will know when it was
done.

PROHIBITION.
Mayor Rose, of Milwaukee, in
Joint Debate With Prof.
DiCkie, of Chicago.

The second debate between
Mayor David S. Rose, of Milwau-
kee, and President Samuel Dickie,
of Albion College, Mich, on the
prohibition question, was given at
/. the Auditorium Theater in Chi
aago, April 30.
Mayor Rose, in taking the mega
I've of the question that prohibi-
ton of the manufacture and sale
of Intoxicating beverages is right,
said in part:
Thinking men recognize prohi-
ton as proposed as an extreme
Femedy wholly insufficient and de-
structive in actual practice, while
on the other hand they realize that
the joint saloon and the dive men
ace society. Now they are seeking
some rational middle ground"
He presented statistics from
Kansas, Maine and other prohibi-
ton States to show that prohibi-
ton is failing to stop drunkenness.
He said that the only churches
now in favor of prohibition were
those that fostered the spirit of in
tolerance that found it's outlet in
the burning of witches. He said
that to destroy all the liquor in the
world would mean loss of 1928
100000 in revenue TO the Govern
ment alone.
Mr.. Dickie took up the physical
effect that the drinking of intoxi-
eating liquors has upon its patrons.
He argued that it shortened life
and increased liability to disease.
Of the liquor dealers, he said:
THE brand of Cain seems to be
t<lOn them. The net result of
their life and labor is to lower the
moral tone of the community. A
few nights ago | went into a South
Clark-street saloon owned by a
Chicago Alderman. If there is
anything more like hell this side
the trimming pit, | do not know
where to find it. Not a happy
face, not a hopeful countenance
could | find in all that drinking,
swearing, quarrelsome crowd of
wrecks.

tinued, land the social problem
becomes easier. Criminals, gamb-
lers and women of the street are
the defenders of the saloon. One
of the most dangerous influences
is that upon politics.

SGalfic are engagaged today, as
never before. | am here with my
feet on the solid rock of the Con-
stitution, with my front to the
foe, and my eyes on the stars to
tell you that civil liberty will live
