church life and service comes under his direction. The finances of every church in the present time constitutes d great part of It's life. Thus the minister, being the overseer of the whole life of the church, bears q very vital relation to the financess
 "lIe is to teach them that Christianity is religion of giving; that Christ is a gift and that the genius of his religion is that of giving even unto sacrifice.
 We have made the statement that the minister is to teach the people of God that they are to give. He should show them that they are to give because 1t Is the call of God. God claims a share in that which we possess and He calls for that upon which He has a claim. People should be taught that they are to give because it is the call of God. God is not in need of what we have except that he chooses for our good to use us and what we have in the promulgation of His truth and the bringing in of His kingdom.
 Men must be shown what a dollar will do. They will give more readily when they understand what may be ac- complished by that which they give.
 We do not possess that which we call our own. We are simply stewards ap- pointed or iou ana accountable to Him for what we do with that which is com mitted to our stewardship. Giving is the highest expression of the human soul If we have life in Christ our giving should be an expression of our love. The Christian who lives abundantly and loves deeply will give freely and joy ously. A.
 ''I1very minister should teach the peo- pie of his church that giving is part of their worship and that worship cannot be complete if 1t is void of giving There is more of real truth than we are will ing to admit in the saying of Paul. It is more blessed to give than to receive. It is even so. our greatest blessings come in giving. There is perhaps no greater sin in our churches today than the sin of covctousness. The minister should show that the empty treasuries of the Lord. are due to the covetousness of Gods people. The minister who Is afraid to preach on covetousness is moral coward Close alongside the sin of cov- etoIssness is the sin of ignorance.
 "Fellow ministers, we are Gods ap- pointed leaders; we are not the Lord s of mems consciences, but under the ap- pontment of God we are their leaders. The captain of our salvation is leading on and is looking to us to see that the people of God keep step and push for ward to the consummation, when He. our Lord, shall reign and when peace shall fill the hearts Of men and the Knowledge Of God shall cover the earth as the waters cover the seas."

WESTINGHOUSE MAY CHANGE MANAGEMENT

New York, July 1S.-Four reasons why stockholders of the Westinghouse Elec- trie and Manufacturing company should place their proxies in the hands of Charles J. Canda and George Westing- house, to be voted al the election of four directors on July 26 are given by Mr.. Westinghouse in a letter issued to the stockholders today bearing date of Pitts burg.
 First the letter states, the directors should be nominees and representative of the stockholders, without other inv terests to serve; second, two vacancies in the directorate should be fileld at the annual meeting, making six directors to be elected, probably enough 10 insure change of management; third, an nde- pendent stockholders committee should be appointed with authority to investigate the present management, and last, the by-laws should be changed so as to af- ford stockholders a greater share In the management.
 The letter argues that change of policy and management is imperative.

THE FLY NUISANCE.

The house-fly stands at the bar OF
modern science under indictment as
the filthiest and most dangerous OF all
household pests. Practically ali the
flies found in the house are born in
manure piles. garbage cans. or some
other equally obnoxious accumulation
OF filth. They carry dirt of all kinds
on their feet and deposit it wherever
they happen TO alight. They are
natures scavengers. 10 be sure. but
they accomplish no good In tne house,
and do vast amount OF harm, They
ought 10 be banished.
The solution of the fly problem rests
almost entirely ON prevention. AS a
means TO this end the Merchants
Associations Committee on Pollution
OF Waters of New York has issued the
following rules:
Keep the flies away from the sick,
especially those ill with contagious
diseases. Kill every fly that strays
into the sick room. His body is cover
ed with disease germs.
Do not allow decayingE material of
any sort to accumulate on or near

Screen all food
Keep all receptacles for garbage
carefully covered and the cans clean
ed or sprinl1led with oil or lime.
Keep all stable manure in vault or
pit, screened or sprinkled with lime,
oil or other cheap preparation.
See that your sewage system is
in good order: that it does not leak.
is up to date and not exposed to flies.
Pour kerosene into the drains.
Cover food after a meal; burn or
bury all table refuse.
Screen all food exposed for sale
Screen all windows and doors.
especially the kitchen and dining
room.
Burn pyrethrum powder in the
house to kill the flies.
Don't forget if you see flies. their
breeding place is in nearby filth. It
