GOSPEL COUNTS
Sunday School Missionaries
are Doing Great Work
in This State.

That there are men and women over
thirty u of age living in North Da-
kota who have never heard II sermon.
much less sung a good old-fashioned
gospel hymn is a startling statement
made to The Evening Times by j. Q.
Doolittle Of Valley City. general mis-
sionary Of the American Sunday
school Union Of North Dakota. who
Is in Grand Forks in the interests Of
his Sunday school work. Mir. Doolittle
says that the eyes of the entire de-
nominational world are on this state
at the present time. as 1t offers as wide
a field for religious enterprise as for
agricultural investment.
Since MIR. Doolittle was here on his
annual financial canvass a year ago
three more missionaries rave been
added to the little army of workers in
this state which now numbers ten.
The missionaries are working out Of
Casselton. Mandan. LaMoure. Valley
City. Darlington. Minot. Wnliston.
Dickinson. Grafton and Willow City.
1t is hoped to have another mar in
the Mott or New England field before
long.
The work Of the missionaries is to
organize Sunday schools. where chill
dren Of all denominations or Of none
can gather and learn of the bible and
the Master. The missionaries are each
provided with a horse and rig and they
go from farm house to farm house.
cheering the people. preaching and
praying. Some Of the missionaries
carry small organs with them. so that
the children of the farmers \can be
taught to sing. Most of the mission
aries are working among foreigners
and through districts hat r many
miles from a railroad.
r. B.. Griffith of Grand Forks is one
of the officers Of the union in North
Dakota.
The work Of the union has been car
ried on in this state with marked sue
cess since 1881, and through the eff
forts of the missionaries nan Of what
are now the strongest Sunday schools
and churches in the state have been
organized.
Mr.. Doolittle says that the public
has beer a~ppreciative of the work and
that contributions are freely given in
practically all sections of the state.
The young general missionary who
really accomplishes a great deal more
than his name implies. and who gave
up a fine position in Chicago three
years ago to come to North Dakota to
take up Sunday school work. believes
that h normal schools of this state
will within a comparatively short time
ado the teaching OF sex hygiene to the
various courses. He is campaigning
the state in the interest of this subject
and has asked various newspapers to
agitate the introduction of the subject
in the normal schools. Mr.. Doolittle
contends that the children Of this day
invariably have a vicious knowledge Of
sex by the time they have reached the
age of ten years. He has made a study
of the child and declares that lack of
proper companionship has sent more
than n boy or girl to the reform
school. Keeping the child off the
streets at night can only be success
fully accomplished, he believes. when
the father and mother make home en-

ing in the midst Of a large audience in
a church at Vinita, OKLA. Mrs. Champ
Clark. wife Of the speaker Of the

finger at Fl. T. Laughbaum. who was
making an address. and told him he
was deliberately incorporating the
attitude of the speaker toward the

Laughbaum had declared that when
prohibition leaders tried to get this
bill reported from the committee. the
speakers influence was used against
them.
THAT is untrue" declared a woman
in the middle Of the house. IT am

you are misrepresenting his position"

right. and recalled incidents of a con

Petroleum and Where
1t Comes From

Pennsylvania and Ohio are the
heaviest producers Of crude oil in the
United States. Petroleum is pumped
from the ground at anywhere from
eight hundred to two thousand five
hundred feet below the surface. Some
Of it is light in weight and gives a
large quantity OF. gasoline. One Of the
heaviest products of the Pennsylvania
and Ohio oil Is ordinary wax.
Most Of the oil bearing fields in the
United States yield heavier oils that
contain very little gasoline. This ex-
plains why gasoline is SO high in price.
and why refiners make illuminating oil
safer than they used to because they
have a better place to put gasoline.
Some high grade Oil has recently been
uncovered in the state of Wyoming.
The oil fields Of Illinois. Kansas,
Oklahoma. Texas and California con-
tain about three times as much kero-
sense and distillate as they do Of gaso-
line and naptha. Distillate In realty is
a heavier grade Of kerosene oil. but it
sells about three cents a gallon less
than kerosene and contains even more
power to the gallon than kerosene
does.
