The announcement that Mrs. En-.

the grandmother and all the other rel
atives Of militant. English suffragism,
is to spend the fall and winter months
in America, has caused various emo
tons to surge in the breasts of various
people.
English militants. Of course. are sor-
ry to lose their leader. With her in
they'd attempt anything. Let her but
say the word and they'd start out to
sweep London into the sea, blow up
the navy, ~annihilate the army and
turn the country over to the king of
the Cannibal Islands.
But II Mrs. Pankhurst's followers
are gloomy and downcast. English
statesmen are happy enough to make

Love PROBLEMS
ARE DISCUSSED
Rev. w. H. Matthews Con.
dennis Puppy Love and
spooning in Sermon.

There is too much puppy love
among boys and girls" declared Rev.
". H. Matthews in his sermon of
Love and Courtship" at the Pres
byterian church Sunday night.
Some girls seem to think thai in
order to win a young mans love 1t is
necessary to submit to his embraces
he continued, when in fact they will
win 1t a great deal quicker by keep
Ing him at his proper distance"
Mr.. Matthews suggested that a
young man wishing to learn some
thing of his beloved's habits should
call upon her at unexpected hours.
He explained. however, that it was
no fair to expect a girl IL look her
best when doing homework.
He also urged that young people
should realize the sacred character
of an engagement. He suggested that
one of the best methods of doing this
was for the yourT couple to attend
church together.
"1f the young mar regards this
as too cheap a name of entertain
ing his sweetheart. let him put so
cents in the collection plate,'' was
his suggestion.
A good sized congregation attend

Matthews will speak on Married
