tended yesterday and the sermons
were spiritual and helpful. Rev. L.
E. Barton spoke first to the Sunday
School, in which quite a number of
the pupils were very much interested.
At eleven o'clock the subject was
IAN Old Love Story" the text being
John 3:16. At the Auditorium a
splendid sermon was preached to an
audience of men. Many expressed
themselves as greatly benefited.
At the evening hour at the church,
which was more than full, the SER
mon was on the "Prodigal Son." and
was earnest and powerful.
The meetings continue till Tuesday
night, the day services at IL a. m.
and the evening services at 7:30 p. m.
These meetings have been Of distinct
helpfulness to all who have attended
them. The remaining services will nc
doubt be equally as valuable.

to think of the probable result? 1t is
dangerous to public safety. Another
thing that is distinctly behind the
times is allowing distractions of any
kind on the sidewalks. Merchants
should keep their wares inside their
houses; at least that is the way they
do in up-to-date, modern cities, where
civic pride prevails. And the alleys
need cleaning out, and the sidewalks
in many portions are rank with weeds
that should have been cut last July
Much of the illness from fever is often
caused by these high weeds along the
edges of the cutters, hiding stagnant
water. They are not conducive, either
to the health or the material pros

the word to conjure with-to keep
the streets and alleys clean, the
weeds cut, and the town decently
dressed up.
The automobilists get a good deal
of "cussing,' and they deserve a
major portion of what they get; but
there are Others" and the autoist is
not always to blame. The habit some
children have of daring the chauffers
is wreckless in the extreme and as in
excusable as it is wreckless, They
will run out in front of car and
stop, just to make the car go around
them; then leer and laugh and jeer
at the occupants of the car Suppose
the chauffer should not be able to stop
in time; then everybody would jump
on the chauffer. These children also
run out and get in front of buggies
and won't get out of the road.
Mothers should keep their children off
the streets. The street is not their
playground. Only yesterday a little
boy was lying fiat in the dust on Main
street, when buggy passed and
obligingly drove around him. The
lady driving, leaned out and said

get to the business portion or the
residence section of the city. Think
of it-not single paved street or
even fairly good route to this depot
from the business part of the city.
And the darkness as ore finds his way
over those many tracks, between cars
and engines, and the danger from
