Clever Children Entertain.

One of the cleverest entertainments
of the season given by children was
the Thanksgiving program presented by
the pupils of the North Avenue Pres
byterian church day school to an audi
ence composed of the friends and par
ents of the young performers yesterday
afternoon The little folks, wearing
Puritan costumes, were seen in play
let's, drills, dances. Rotations and
songs. A committee composed of
Misses Dorothy Arkwright, Belle Math-
eson, Marian Stearns and Irene King
arranged the entertainment and
planned the program, assisted by Miss
Sarah Converse and the other teachers
of the school
Among the features Of the program
was The Puritan School," with Miss
Katherine Erwin as teacher and Misses
Emily Robinson, Marian Hull, Belle
Matheson and Mary Nelson as pupils,

Puritan leader, his family. the Indian
chief. the captain who arrived just in

taken by Misses Alice Orme, Dorothy
Padgett, Clara Cole and Alice Stealns
and Masters Brainard Adams, Walter
Wilkes, George Evins, Tommie Erwin,
Charles and Joseph Whitner, Houstan
White and Mckenzie Barnes. In both
of these playlets the girls were de
murely pretty in Puritan bonnets
handkerchiefs and aprons, and the boys
wore scout suits, with Puritan collars,
cuffs, hats and buckled slippers.
Miss Charlotte Meador added pref
ty vocal solo to the program, and Miss
Martha Boynton also sang. A fancy
drill with pretty dance steps was rem
dered by fifteen girls, among whom
were Misses Alice Stearns, Charlotte
Meador, Katherine Hook, Natalie

Where Faith Is Needed

The social problems hat face US to-
day are SO vast, so terrifying, so IN
yielding, so deep-rooted, that courage
will fail US unless we have great faith
in God. In this crusade against the
evils Of the world to which the
church is turning we need faith as
never before. 1t takes infinitely more
faith to attack the temperance prob
lem than it did to build Charities ca
thedral. A worker for international
peace recently remarked that when
he considered the imuensity of the IN
dertaking and the o~pposition-an CD
position which grows venomous as the
cause advances-he could not work
with either zeal or hope did he not
have abiding faith in God. The social
worker above all others needs a vital,
near, intimate companionship with
Sod. He above all others should fire.

What we most need to fear today is

with You Always,

Christ never withdraws his pres
ence from anyone who has committed
himself into Christ's keeping. This
means that We may dwell always in
the very person OF God, and that we
need never for a single instant sup
pose that God is away from US. Yet
even Christian people do not always
seem to accept this precious truth. But
Christ does not ask any follower OF
mis- to endure what he endured In
atoning for the sins Of the world. We
could o If we would. And Christ
has said, 10, l am with you always"
and that is enough. For a Christian
to feel far away from God" is to feel
what Is not so. Such a feeling is in
deed human, as SO many other mis-
leading emotions and untrue thoughts
are human; but the blessed fact that
God never leaves US, even when we
think he has done so or ought to do
so. His love is greater than our sin.
He never deserts even US deserters.
Let us gladly enter into the full con-
seriousness of his glorious ond undo
featable presence. Let Satan never
again close our eyes to the presence of
our indwelling Lord.

CONDUCTING THE
PRAYER MEETING
With Other Topics That Are Of
Interest to the Workers
for the Church.

RYHE leaders aim should be to
foster and encourage by his own
suggestions the expression of
religious experiences of a genu-
Inc and -unstereotyped character, that
the power and freedom of the spirit
may be realized in the meeting.
The leaders own part should be as
awakening and suggestive as posi-
bic, and at the same time instructive
and edifying. When it is found that
others are reluctant to take part in
the meeting or their contributions
have become largely mechanical and
spiritually u~nfruitful, the leaders part
may be developed into a lecture. This
mode is found most satisfactory in
many English churches, and in many
city churches among US. Such lee
lures should, however, be carefully
conformed to the occasion and be
promotive of the same ends sought
In the prayer-meeting. They should
not be sermons, and should be of a
strictly practical and devotional char
acter.
For such occasions, the exposition
Of Scripture In longer portions has
been made by many men, notably F.
p. Robertson and Alexander McLaren.
So also IN this country the late DR..
Georges Dana Boardman used the
whole Of the New Testament system
attcally in this way. Others have
taken the topics Of the Sunday-school
lessons or the Christian Endeavor
series. This plan has the advantage
of uniting different branches Of the
work of the church and utilizing an
interest already awakened.
Such expositions of Scripture should
be proposed with care, and based on a
critical study Of the portion selected.
In which the leader avails himself Of
the best modern authorities. but this
critical work should n be intro
duced into the exposition. the results
simply being practically applied.
These expositions should be both
devotional and practical. the spiritual
impulse being first sought for. and
then its moral application being indi-
Gated. This is the apostle Paul's
method in all his epistles, Sufficient
variety of subjects can be found and
touched upon incidentally to a system
attic course of Bible study. Perhaps
a rapid survey of the contents OF
Scripture by books will be found less
tedious than a series on a single book
