NOTES OF THE ZION BAPTIST
CHURCH..


The sermon OF DR.. Howard last Sun
day evening was a masterpiece and
formed fitting climax to the splen-
did series which he preached to Zion
during the two weeks of service
which he gave us. 1t is indeed on rare
occasions that any congregation is
treated to such a mastery presenta-
ton of the Christ as the fruit of God S
Word. DR.. Howard preached as one
possessed, rich in eloquence, perfect
in diction, with a breadth and clear
ness of vision which laid before his
hearers the plan of salvation and
lifted in beauty and glory the incar-
nate So NOT God.
The attendance at both services
taxed the capacity OF the building, es-
pecially at the evening hour when
many found it impossible to find
seats. At the morning service the
pastor preached on the doctrine OF
baptism and at the close of the SER
mon the rite was administered to
seven candidates There are twenty
others on the waiting list, all of
wnom, we trust, Will be ready at the
next service.
The three weeks OF special meet
ings added 80 souls to the member
ship and so thoroughly awakened the
church spiritually that we may expect
others for whom the church is pray
ing to be coming from time to time
Our Sunday school, as is the rule, fur
nished a number OF those added by
baptism. Almost every member of the
school from eight years upward is
IL
TO the church. This is a splendid rec
ord, which but increases our respon-
sibility to go into the highways ana
hedges and compel others to come.
The Mems Bible Glass at it's meet
ing last Tuesday evening presented
the pastor with a handsome pulpit
suit made to measure. This is the
third time the men of Zion have
united to make expression OF the es-
teen and confidence in which they re-
gard the pastor. To say that this
gift is appreciated would be less than
a commonplace. While it represents
a distinct value, its intrinsic worth is
as nothing compared to the spirit in
which the gift was made. 1t is a
great and worthy thing for any min
lister to gain the confidence of his
people, but when the men of church
as class feel disposed to honor their
pastor the highest rewards of service
have well-nigh filled their measure.
At the close of the morning sermon
the remaining candidates for baptism
will be buried in the watery grave.
1t is hoped that every one will be
ready, as such an obligation should be
delayed no longer than is absolutely
necessary.
The Sunday school is planning to
celebrate the one hundredth anniver-
sary of the borth of David Living
stone, the worlds greatest African
missionary, on Easter morning. A
specially arranged program, "A Mes
sage of Light" will be rendered at
the eleven O'Clock hour. This pro-
gram is a most fitting tribute to that
man who gave 33 years Of his life for
Africa and died on his knees praying
for Africa's salvation

MORE VENTILATION is NEEDED

Public gatherings bring together
persons, many of whom are afflicted
with colds, and diseases more imme-
diately dangerous. Therefore the lack
o. adequate ventilation is really en-
aangering peoples health. The folly
of some who fear draughts and cold
air should not prevent churches and
the like from using the best methods
of safeguarding health. Sickness
causes untold misery, and loss or
earning power. The oyen window Is
Natures insurance against contagious
diseases.

And the Germanic peoples who were the found

Everything in American life centers directly
or indirectly in the American home. The nation
rises falls with it. It is the taproot of all our
activities and development our development IN
industry as we'll as in ethics.
For this reason those business men are far
wrong who sneer at the efforts being made to
conserve the home as the work of dreamers and
sentimentalists If these same business men but
realized it their own prosperity is wrapped up
with the home because sooner or later every in
dustry, with few exceptions, will link up with it
and depend upon it.
Factories that make furniture, flOor-cover-
ings, wall paper, much of hardware, pictures,
paints, building materials, lumber, chnaware,
stone, brick, and building materials built
largely to supply the needs Of the house and the
home. If everyone were to live in apartment
houses and flats the demand for these things
would fall nobody can tell how much.
Therefore the disintegration of the home
means the shrinking of the market for these in
dustries and all other industries which are built
on them.
More than that, these are the basic industries
built on permanent needs. When their market
declines it means that the difference will flow
into the manufacture of Injuries. condition

DANCE OF SUNBEAMS

When morning is high DER the hilltops,
On river and stream and lake,
Wherever a young breeze whispers,
The sun-clad dancers wake.
One after upspringing,
They flash from their dim retreat;
Merry running laughter
Is the of their twinkling feet.
Over the floors of
Wherever the wind flaws run,
Sparkling, leaping and racing,
Their antics scatter the sun.
AS long water ripples
And weather is clear and glad,
Day after day they dancing,
Never a moment sad
But when through the field of heaven
The wings of storm take flight,
At touch of the flying shadows
They falter and slip from sight
Until, at the gray days ending.
AS the squadrons of cloud retire,
They pass in the triumph of sunset
With banners of crimson fire.

Save the Shade Trees.

If gang Of ruffians went up and down Rich
mond streets cutting down every shade tree on
both sides the town would soon heave with civil
war. Fire from heaven would be called down on
the depredators and Chief Gormon's braves
would be called for on the double quick. Every
real estate dealer, every property owner, every
renter and even every prOpertyess citizen would
cry out "Save the trees! They are worth thous-
ands of dollars to the community. Destroying
shade trees hurts business, crippes enterprise
and robs Richmond of one Of its chiefest
charms"
All this, we believe, would surely happen if
the said band of ruffians were to make their
raid. And yet the very same destruction is be-
ing done in a less picturesque fashion every day
during these autumn weeks; and scarcely a voice
is raised in protest. Telephone, telegraph, and
light plant linemen climb around with saws and
and lop off branches and limbs with never
much as a by-your-leave. Ignorant tree
butchers travel about town and hack away at
their undefending victims in somewhat the same
fashion boy chops wood. Death follows in the
path of these needless butchers of the trees.
Walk up and down the streets; note how the
trees die down from the top after the carving
has been done; strike the trunk of tree few
years after trimming and learn how hollow it is !!
When limb is cut off and the wood left ex-
posed microscopic seeds of fungus growths settle
in the longitudinal cells, take root, disntegrate
the fibres, and finally travel back down through
the trunk until they reach the root tips. When
their work is done the tree is left hollow drum
ready to be crushed under the first wind storm.
If this butchering is not stopped the good peo-
pie of this town will discover some day that their
shade is gone and then cry will go up to rock
the heavens. Why not get after this butchery
while there is time to stop it?

QUALITIES OF LITTLE QUAIL
Food Consists Largely Of Seeds Of
Noxious or Troublesome Plants
Eats Scales.
(By F. e. L. BEAL.)

(By F. e. L. BEAL)
The natural food of the quail con-
sists Of the seeds of the vast number
of plants known as weeds, with a
little foliage of the same, especially in
winter, when the leaves are young and
tender. Considering how small is the
amount of fruit usually found in the
stomach of this bird, it is surprise
to learn that it sometimes does seri-
Gus damage to vineyards. Investiga-
ton, however, shows that, as in most
other similar cases, the injury results
only when too many birds gather in
a limited area.
Nearly all the complains against
the quail for eating fruit are that it
visits vineyards in immense numbers
and eats grapes. When thousands
visit a vineyard. even If only occasion
ally, and each bird eats or spoils at
least one grape, the result is disas-
trous.
In the laboratory investigation OF
the food of these quail 619 stomachs
were examined. Animal food, princi-
pally insects, amounted to per cent
of the food, and 81 per cent. vegetable
food. This latter consists of seeds of
plants. most Of which are Of noxious
or troublesome species.
Ants appear to be favorite animal
food. but the quail will eat caterpil-
lars, beetles. grasshoppers, flies,
spiders, snails and scale insects.

COST OF BUILDING CREAMERY
One Must First Figure on Expense and
Then on EquIpment-Pays
to Build Well.
(By @. A. GILBERT, Colorado Agricul-
tural College)

By @. A. GILBERT Colorado Agricul-
tural College)
Creamery builders must figure the
cost, first, of the building. second, Of
the equipment. A suitable and con-
venient building will contain a main
work room, store room, refrigerator,
engine and boiler room, coal room and
an of1ice. Such medium sized cream
cry would measure 2Sx48 feet. In
some sections labor and material are
much cheaper than in others and the
cost varies accordingly. However, we
can place the limit of cost of such a
construction between one thousand
and fifteen hundred dollars.
Where only gathered cream is re-
ceived the equipment required is less
than where whole milk is received, In
the first instance, of the gathered
cream plant, the following would be
necessary: 15 H. P. boiler; 10 H. P.
engine; a well and pump; weigh can
and scales; Babcock testing equip
ment complete; combiner churn. capa-
city 900 lbs. butter; buttermilk vat;
cream ripener; starter can; wash sink.
Besides this there will be shafting.
pulleys, piping, betting. etc. BY max
Ing two churnings day in the rush
season, 1000 pounds of butter could be
manufactured per day in plant Of
this size. The cost of equipment would
approximately be $1,000.
The total cost Of creamery with
out artificial refrigeration will vary
from $4,000 to $4,000 In the long run
1t pays to build we'll and to use first
class equipment in creamery, and
this is the basis of the foregoing fig
ures. In many cases on record cream

sentatives OF construction companies

are able to do.
