and getting ugly, so l killed him.
That's the only mad dog scare we
ever had around here.
There are very few stray dogs
around town. Most of the dogs
owned here are bulls and bull ter
riers. There are very few shepherd
dogs around town. Shepherd dogs
are big dogs. A bull dog isn't so
very big.

one at the Allen House. It's a little

:" There are no Newfoundland nor
Saint Bernard dogs in town.
THE reason we don't see any
dogs on the streets is because they
are all licensed and people take care
of their dogs.

around here"
This, in view of the approaching

in British Columbia, there will prob
ably be a special election sanctioned
by Congress for the Wayne-Susque-

next few weeks and there will be
some sharp campaigning for the Of

that it is entitled to the Office on ac-

SCRANTON DIVINE
breaches HERE
DR.. FlaCk Conducts Ser
vices at the Old First
Church
HE is MODERATOR OF PENN
SYLVANIA SYNOD; DIR.
SWIFT AT ASBURY.

Our religion touches life at
every point if it is real. In our
dealings with each other, in our con-
duct in the home, in our buying and
selling, 1t will influence you. And if
we are friends of God, the world
around us will recognize it in our
lives and be convinced of the reality
of the religion of Jesus Christ in our
hearts,"
Such was the sane, healthy doc
trine expounded by the Rev. Ebene-
zer Flack, ID. D., pastor of the
Washburn Street Presbyterian
church, Scranton, at the Old First
church, Sunday afternoon. Taking
as his subject, Abraham, The
Friend of God" and choosing as his
texts, the twenty-third verse of the
second chapter of st. James, and the
fourteenth and fifteenth verses of
the fifteenth chapter of st. John,
Doctor Flack drew beautiful paral-
lelisms between Divine and human
friendship.
Doctor Flack is the Moderator of
the Synod of Pennsylvania, one of
the largest, wealthiest, most power
full ecclesiastical organizations in the
United States. Its twenty-one pres
byteries control the local interests
OF the denomination in the Key
stone state.
There are some husbands" re-
marked Doctor Flack, "who wouldn't
like to tell everything about their
lives and thoughts to their wives,
Ana there are some wives who
Wouldnt t like to tell their husbands
everything"
In discussing the question of "how
can one who is not friend of God
become a friend of God?" Moderator
flack enumerated some of the diff
ierent ways in which this friendship
is established, saying:
The great work that is given
ministers of the Gospel, elders of
the church, Sunday school teachers
and Christian workers is to intro
duce men and women to Jesus
Christ. That is all we can do. Take
men and women and introduce them
to Jesus Christ. Then their part is
to cultivate the friendship"
Doctor Flack is a healthy. expon-
ent of the safe and sane doctrine
which he breaches. Standing six
loot tall, of Herculean build, with
broad and massive shoulders, clean
shaven, ascetic face, he proclaims
by his very personal appearance the
glorious gospel which his lips pro-
fess.
Large congregations were present
at both the morning and evening SER
vices to hear the noted Scranton di-
vine, who made touching reference
IN his prayers to the pastor, Doctor
w. H: Swift who is resting at AS
Dury Park during the month of
August.
