There will be a field day il the
Fargo churches in the interests of the
American Sunday School union, of
which Joseph DoolittIe is the general
district missionary for North Dakota.
The above, announcements will show
where the different speakers will be
heard n in what churches.
The Sunday school people of North
Dakota rejoice at the progress being
made along the lines of missionary
endeavor. Many have been saying,
What are we doing to open more
schools"-the American Sunday school
union is answering that question every
day. Since the national society was
organized over eighty seven years ago,
this body has opened at the rate of
nearly four schools a day. There are
24S missionaries now at work. North
Dakota has seven of them. BY April
1, there will be ten in the state. These
men are INSTRUMENTATION workers.
In Minnesota where there are nine
teen men engaged they represent eight
different denominations. Mr.. Doolittle
of Valley City. has the work in charge
in North Dakota. Mr.. Doolittle re-
ports that sixty-five schools, having
over 1000 pupils enrolled, were opened
last year. Mr.. ~Jorgenson, a mission
airy located at Dickinson, has a Sunday
school seventy miles from town in a
county where there is not a resident
preacher, railroad or town, yet the So
ciety has thirteen schools doing good
work among the homosteaders.
Providing neglected children with re-
ligious training it not a new enter
prise. Good men grappled with this
problem many years ago. when they
organized the American Sunday School
union, The plans which they devised
have not been excelled. With good
literature specially prepared to meet
the needs of the people, the union has
been sending faithful missionaries into
destitute communities ~instructing the
people and establishing Sabbath
schools. Their success has excelled all
expectation. The places where the
neglected children live are the strategic
points. Without wishing to exalt the
needs of one section over any other,
attention is called to this state where
the need is apparent on every side.

out until 1853. II
Many centuries before Russia became
the great nation h Is now her rulers
made Constantinople the goal OF their
desires. Most writer's ascribe the PLAN
ming Of Russia to seize the city, and
thus to obtain access to the Mediter-
anean sea from the Black sea, to a
semimythical will of Peter the Great,
which forbids his successors to rest ia
peace until they replace the cross on
ST. Sophia. Constantinople's famous
shrine. But these historians forget
that as far back as 865 a Russian fleet
appeared before Co~nstantinople and
attempted to capture the city. Other
Russian attacks were made in GOT and
1043. :
The cosmopolitan character OF Con-
stantinople is well described by a re-
ent newspaper writer. who says:
mo seaport in the underworld can
compare with Constantinople in COS
mopolitan character. One need only
stand on the famous bridge Of Galata
and observe the motley assemblage OF
humanity that wends its way Upon the
footpaths at either side. This spacious
structure connects the business section
Of the city with the Mohammedan'
quarter. IL no other spot on the ur-
face Of this earth are men of all races
and of all creeds brought together in
such bewlldering promiscuity.v 1t is
hardly an exaggeration to say that
practically every language spoken IN
the world may be heard within an
hours time upon the causeway.
