"Only once in these fifteen years
has company refused me admittance
into it's camps; and 1 feel today that
if that company had known the
truth it would never have closed it's
doors to me.
For the first seven years l was
visiting camps in Minnesota. l had
charge of the Duluth Presbytery and
during that time was fitting myself
for ordination, as it was not my
privilege to graduate from any COL
lege or theological seminary Each
year my acquaintance grew among
the men of the forest; for a hundred
men you reach in camp one winter
may be scattered over fifty camps the
winter following; so each year invi-
tations from new camps increased.
Il soon found | had either to give
up the work now commenced in the
camps or give up my missionary work
as the pastor Of a church. AS soon
as | received my ordination, turned
my attention to the field of working
among the men in the forests. But
as soon as | did this | realized how
little one man could do in such a
vast field, for already invitations
were coming to me from the Pacific
coast, where many Of the men whose
acquaintance I had made had gone
Il saw that I must have help; and
this meant more men and more

where could l get the men willing
to take up the work? And if | got
men, they must be the right kind of
men. More than once the work wa,
started by men who were not fitted
fer it. Some hearing about what !
vas doing were anxious to engage
in the work, but when thew found
that they must travel day after day,
he in camp every night, making two
or three camps on Sunday, sleeping
in a bunk or under the canopy Of
heaven, they soon wearied and sought
work in the towns. But God, in a
marvellous way, showed me how this
problem could be solved.
"One day, while in camp, l was
reading for pass time, when |. came
across an article telling how General
bOOlli, Ill duulSS1u oil III
London, years ago, describing his
plans for the organization of the
army in every country and in every
city and town, was interrupted by
the question, Where will you get the
workers?' In flash, he answered:
From among those who are convert
ed l dropped the paper, saying,
1T is vision; l see it. If God can
raise up such splendid workers from
the gutter, for the salvation army,
why can't men be raised up in the
camps to do this work. And thank
God, they have.
During this past winter, four of
the best workers we have are con-
vented lumberjacks And I believe
the time is not far distant when
many such men will be raised up
not only for the camps, but for the
frontier towns and waste places

Our plan for the future of the
work is as follows:
Put a missionary over a circuit
of say from twelve to twenty of these
camps as the number may be con-
veniently located. The missionary
can travel among these camps con-
tinually, doing the aforementioned
work. Our past experience has
proven that 500, with what the men
give in camp, will support one of
those missionaries for the winter
months, but now in many places

Our EIaatic GIoha.

Nothing seems more rigid than the
crust Of the earth. but scientific men
tell us that 1t bends and buckles ap-
preciably under the pull of the heaven
ly bodies. Careful observation has
also shown that the shores on opposite
sides OF a tidal basin approach each
other at high tide. The weight Of
water In the Irish sea. for instance. is
so much greater at that time that the
bed sinks a trlfe aud consequently
pulls the Irish and English coasts
nearer together The buildings OF Liv-
erpool and Dublin may be fancied as
bowling to each other across the chan
mel. the detection from perpendicular
being about one inch for every six
teen miles. IL has been shown. too.
that ordinary valleys widen under the
heat of the sun and contract again at
night. We live not on a rigid but an

Brandywine Hundred Prop

Land adjoining this property in
Brandywine hundred is worth nearly
$1,000 an acre." declared George

REFORM SCHOOL
FOR THESE BOYS
With Their Incarceration Rob-
berry of Slot Gas Meters
May Cease

Walter Horsey and Tony Marino,
aged respectively IA and Is years. re-
puted leaders of a gang of boys who
have recently kept themselves in
spending money by robbing slot gas
meters, were today sent by Judge
Cochran to the Ferris Industrial
School.
Special officers employed by the
Wilmington Gas Company to round
up the youthful thieves are of the
opinion that the capture Of the two
lads and their Imprisonment win mark
the close OF the wholesale robbing of
meters. When the two boys who arc
credited with robbing goodly num-
Der Of meters during the past few
months, were captured, they were hid
ing I'm corner In the cellar of a
building at No. 5l1 West Third street
and were armed with tools usually
used In forcing slot machines. Both
boys have been shadowed for sometime
past by men employed for the pur-
pose by the Gas Company and il Is
said that the remainder of the gang
to which they belonged are known to
the specials acting for the Gas Com
pany. II was said at the Gas Com
pany's offices this morning that an
unusually large number Of slot meter
robberies have been reported during
the past month. and emphasis was laid
upon the fact that the $50 reward Of
