mo.


Colonia Dublan. Chihuahua, Jan. ia
The little town OF Guadalupe lies about
six miles from COlOnia Dublan, and the
road is in perfect order and the ride is
delightful. 1t is composed of about 10
families. Sixteen OF their young peO-
pie are attending the Juarez Stake
academy in Colonia Juarez and one is
in Salt Lake City at school
One of Mr.. Allred's sons studied
agriculture while at school in the Juarez
Stake academy, and when he returned
he put his theory into practice. A very
small piece of ground was allotted for ex-
perimenting and as he loved both nature
and books he studied while he worked
He had been taught that as a rule
farmers use too much water, so he irri-
gated the little plot only twice, bat lie
cultivated it five times, the results Were
phenomenal-nearly every stalk of corn
bore three ears. The yield was much
heavier than that on an adjoining piece,
which was also planted TO corn. but
which was watered five times but culti-
waited only twice.
Mr.. and Mrs. Condie Mrs. Stout and
Mrs. Bunker Cox, of Guadalupe, are in
Utah
The water in the canal is very low.
The water is being taken from the river
for winter irrigation

IS JEFF AFRAID? DOES He WANT
THE COMING FIGHT STOPPED !?

under orders of Gov. Spray, Jeffries
would be relieved Of the necessity of
meeting the black champion in the
squared circle. It may be only stall
on the part of Tex Richard and Jack
Gleason to hold up San Francisco for
more money. The whole thing looks a
trife shady.
Neither of the promoters are any too
well known or well liked to carry any
too much confidence. July is long
ways away and many things may hap
pen in the meantime. If big Jeffries
would only quit his transforming and
get down to work, his position in the
fight matter would be more clearly de-
fined. AS it is his one desire seems to
corner and bale all the loose change in
the universe, a lesson he has learned
from Sam Berger. At the present time
the big championship fight seems in
danger of degenerating into a Juggling
contest with JEFF clowning the act.

Here is one for the fight fans to null
around in their think mill for awhile.
Is the stall that Tex Richard is putting
up about having the black and white
championship fight in Salt Lake, rain
or shine, opposition or no opposition, a
preconceived plan of one James j. JeA-
fries to avoid meeting a certain dark
skinned Texan by the name Of John
son.
This surmise has been made and the
facts surrounding the circumstance
make an interesting bit of fight phil
osophy. Jeffries has shown no inclin-
alton to get into condition for the big
fight, although he has acknowledged
he is overweight and out of condition
Johnson has fitted up a gymnasium in
his Chicago home, installed a telephone

TIE CHURCH. AND
IT'S CRITICS"
Rev. Perry J. Rice Opens a
Series Of Sermons at
Christian Church.

AT the First Christian church, Sunday
evening, Rev. Perry J. Rice, the pastor.
delivered the first of a series of ser
mons dealing with the church in its re-
lat1on to present day life The theme
was "The Church and It's Critics"
In part Rev. Mr.. Rice said:
Critics are as omnipresent as the
poor, nothing escapes their attention.
II done in the right spirit criticism is
a good thing 1t often points out weak
nesses that may be overcome, faults
that may be remedied AS instituted
by Aristotle criticism was meant as a
standard of judging well. and as such
It is the handmade of reflection.
In recent years critics of the church
have been numerous. and the criticisms
have been varied. It is asserted that
church members do not live up to the
standards they profess TO follow: that
they are often selfish, unbrotherly an.
unreasonable. It is often affirmed that
the church is uncharitable. having little
regard for those unfortunate creatures
of circumstances who are so numerous
in every community
Some say the church is selfish de-
string chiefly its own ACKNOWLEDGMENT
and glory, and lacking almost wholly
the instinct for service. It is also said
and ceremonies, to the defense of doc
trinal pronouncements which have be-
come obsolete, ard have little relation
TO the great human problems which
confront the man Of wealth. Socialists

As only 80 percent of church members
attend the regular Sunday school serv-
ices, the home department has a great
field
This phase of Sunday school work
has grown with great rapidly. Atlanta
has a police home department and
Louisville one for trolley employees.
First Teachers Were Paid
With all the great good that is done
through the agency. Of the Sunday
school, which is really the recruiting
station of the church, il seems strange
that ecclesiasts could have failed to
gage its possibilities 20 such an extent
as TO try to kill the movement, even
after it had numbered SOC, 900 followers
under its banners, yet it is less than
100 years since no less a religious au-
thority than the archbishop of Canter-
bury cOnvOked a council Of bishops to
consider ways and means to put an end
10 Sunday schools.
The first Sunday school. under Rob-
ert Raikes, had paid teachers, who re-
ceived q shilling a day for their serv-
ices But it was rot many years be-
fore the idea of paid teachers was elm
mated and with it the general objec-
ton that the Sunday school tended to
secularize the Sabbath. 1t was long
after the beginning of the Sunday school
that any comprehensive system of bible
study was outlined

generally, and labor leaders often are
pronounced in their criticism of the
church Many people have regarded the
church as opposed to progress and as a
hindrance to science. 1t is sometimes
criticised because ii NEEDLES in what
people suppose to be their private af-
fairs, because fl frOwns upon evil prac-
tees and social vices
The criticisms that are offered are
not wholly from the unfriendly and the
outsiders. The writer of The Calling
of Dan Matthew'S which is a broad
side criticism of the church, is a preach
eT of the gospel and IS not out of SYM
pathy with the church. but recognizes
certain gloomy faults which ought to
he corrected. He voices some popular
criticisms.
The church is not and ought not
TO be regarded as immune from criti-
ciSm- Divine in its origin and pur-
poses, it is nevertheless singularly hui
man in its constituents. 1t is made up
OF people in all stages of moral de-
velopment and. necessarily, therefore
presents imperfectiOns. But you would
not criticise school because all its
pupils do not suddenly become scholars,
nor a hospital because everybody who
enters its doors does not become sudden
ly well.
Granted that the church has faults
and that its Weaknesses are often glaring
and serious. still il contributes to So
ciety that which is contributed by moth
ing else, and which all other institu-
tions need in order to reach their great
est worth and efficiency. In the last
analysis business depends upon honesty.
The commercial relations of the world
must be guided by a sense of right. The
church awakenS the moral consciences
of men. 1t is in the church that right
eousness IS set forth with supreme pow
er, not simply as mere policy, but as
an ever present and paramount duty"
Rev Mr.. Rice insisted with many
ccgent remarks that the church is es-
sential to business, TO the reign of JUS
tice between men, to education and to
the time. He declared that society with
out the standards and ideals which the
church upholds, and the inspiration
which it gives to men to be true and
honest, would become corrupt and de-
based and fall into decay.
The subject for the next of the series
is THE Church and the Social Crisis
On next Sunday the installation of the
new pastor will be held. President ".
Z. Garrison, of the Agricultural col
lege of New Mexico, will be present and
participate in the services.

THIRTY MILLION STUDENTS TAKE
Up NEW BIBLE LESSONS THIS YEAR

formulate a seven year bible study
course. Since then there have been some
changes in the forma tiOn OF the COM
mittee, and some in its work. but on
the whole its task today is not essen
TALLY different from what it was 81
years ago.
Care Given to Selection.
The lessons which are to be studied
this year were not produced in haste.
Even now, while the Sunday school
scholars are studying the first lessons
for 1910 those for 1912 are being pre-
pared, and those for subsequent years
are being mapped out by the great
committees upon whose shoulders fall
the duty of guiding the worlds thought
in bible study.
Even as far back as 1907, at the
meeting Of the British and the Ameri-
can sections OF the international com
mittee, II was decided that the British
committee should prepare a cycle Of
lessons from 1912 TO 1917, with the
1912 lessons worked out in detail. and
the ones from 1913 TO 1917, inclusive. in
broad outline. The course for the 1910
lessons was approved before that date.
and the American committee was asked
10 work out the details of the 1911 les
sons.
Graded Lessons
The 1907 conference Of the British
and American sections of international
lesson writers will result in the lessons
Of the next few years being graded. On
both sides of the Atlantic il was found
that there was a demand for graded
lessons. and resolutions were adopted
looking TO that end. but il is not prob
able that these will be introduced be-
fore 1912. The American section is Sc
lected by the international association.

Cover Bible In Six Years.
The bible must be covered in six
years. with 2SS lessons There must
be a temperance lesson every quarter
and a number of other special lessons
After the committee has gone over the
lessons for a given year they are sent

ensuing year these suggestions and
criticisms are examined carefully
