OPENS NEAL INSTITUTE IN OMAHA FEBY FIRST

State Senator James e. Bruce of Atlantic,
Ia, who is so widely and favorably known
to the people Of southwestern Iowa, the
business and professional men and bankers
of Council Bluffs and Omaha, makes the
following public statement
THE large number of business and pro-
fessional men, and especially bankers, in
this whole section of southwestern Iowa
and eastern Nebraska, who have had a
personal acquaintance with me for many
years, and large business interests, may
be somewhat surprised at me connecting
myself with a liquor cure company or any
other medical proposition. Being a banker
myself Owning and operating a chain Of
banks), the bankers of Council Bluffs and
Omaha, especially, will wonder that any
banker would 80 much as consider, a propo-
sition that Is so foreign to banking. Inas-
much as the one motto of all bankers,
everywhere, is deliver the goods and that
my business sagacity may not be unduly
criticised, a public statement of facts from
me will set. my friends right in the matter:
Something over a year ago my ~autention
was first called to the cure of the liquor
habit, In three days. 1t struck me as 1t
would any other banker, in a business way,
and 1t was not given even a passing notice
or thought. A little later my attention
was again called to the cure, and while in
Chicago on business met an acquaintance

Rev. John p. Clyde Points Out Their
Deep Significance.
"Our Missionary Work in Foreign Lands
was the theme chosen for the Sunday
morning address by Rev. John p. Clyde.
pastor of Plymouth Congregational church,
His sermon dealt with the founding and
history of the American Board of Foreign
Missions.
'-The world is becoming small in a way"
said the speaker. THE nations are being
welded together by a common belief in God.
The civilized nations are reaching out to
aid the uncivilized people in the remote
parts of the earth. All nations and tribes
are being brought closer together.
THE American Board OF Foreign Mis-
sions Is greatly Instrumental in this work.
Although, by origin, it is an institution OF
the Congregational church, it is not denom-
national by any means, for all sects are
, active in promoting It's work.
This year we celebrate the hundredth
anniversary of the founding OF this great
institution. Way back in the year 1910 a
body Of students from Yale university got
together with a similar body at Williams
college and organized a sort of Christian
union This little union grew into the pres
emit Foreign Missionary society.
"The first work done by the board was to
name nine commissioners In 1912 five
young men were ordained at Salem. Mass.
and were commissioned to go to Calcutta.
India The plan, however. did not bear
fruit, for the British East India company
interfered and sent the young ministers
away. Today, nevertheless. there are 1900.
900 Protestants in India. This number speaks

eight commissioners to the board. In 1914
the American Baptist union was formed
for a similar purpose. and has done effec-
tive work. In 1876 the Aperican Mission
airy association was organized and has

The work among the Indians in the west
has been one OF the accomplishments of
these missionary societies"

Of Nations Theme Of Rev.
John =. Clyde.

Moral Greatness was the theme Of the
Sunday morning fmen preached by Rev.
@. Wa Abbott, % d. pastor OF Trinity
Methodist church, being the last OF a series
Of subjects Feleoted for January.
Jesus ChflEt rose superior to His SUR
roundings and Ills teaehings were entirely
superior to Ills conditions and limitations.
1t is this manifest issue in the life OF
Christ which is leading men to wonder at
the great following He has.
Jesus Christ saw the truth Of things.
There are two ways of getting at the
truth-logic, the mans way; intuition, the
woman's way. Jesus saw the truth, but did
not argue about H. The truth was open
to Him and He was open to the truth.
There is not a sentence credited to Jesus
Christ. which car. be confuted. The story
of the prodigal son contains more truths
than most of US can understand. 1t Is a
picture of a loving father and a hayward
son. There Is no argument in 1t. Intel
lectual greatness appears in the quality OF
the truths He preached.
"A patient study Of the New Testament
without bias win reveal the fact that Jesus
Christ sought regeneration Of society by
the regeneration Of the Individual. He
taught the uplifting Of women. He did not
protest against the cruelties practiced by
the Romans, but quietly taught the in
dlvidual was to be renlodeled until the
atmosphere of love should become the law.
Improve the people within the environ
ment and the environment will improve.
Get right men and get men right and laws
and customs will improve. Everything In
society that is good has been brought about
by regeneration OF the Individual.
HE maintained that love vas a powerful
and. supreme agent in the human heart.
He solved q great problem at a single
stroke when He said. Thou shalt love the
Lord with all thy heart and thy nelghbor
as myself 81
How would you or the world or society
restore purity? The assertion Of most is
there is no restoration or hope for such
people. Society stigmatizes the female
transgressor by building a high wall and
keeping her in outer darkness. The
scoundrel who led her to ruin is again re-
stored to society, but the door is closed
to her.
"A woman may go to the river and jump
to oblivion, but If that woman may be
made TO love some one. whether II be a
man or woman or Jesus Christ. there is
hope for her, and the first step has been
taken toward her restoration and regenera-
ton. In the prophesy Of love is hope and
life and peace.
Supernatural truths were natural to
Jesus Christ because He was supernatural
Divine truths were natural because He was
divine, and sin was far from Him because
He was sinless."

The proper care OF the hair does not
require a woman to soour her scalp with

II 1t was possible to cure the drink habit
in three days, that 1t would not only offer
a rare field for investment, but that It
would be a splendid work for humanity,
as well. Now my curiosity was aroused,

doubts were firm and my skepticism great,
it was Incredible. Prompted by curiosity
