Duty Towards the Young.

There are many strong calls which ] God is making to you and to me, wno l call ourselves Christians. Look toWards l the young. Many of us perhaps have been brought up to feel that our first duty is to attend to our own business and we have done that conselentlcusly. Many of us doubtless feel that we | did not receive the social education, the education in citizenship, which we I should have had when young.
 Then we must look out for the young people of today. We can get | the bows into the habit of lending a hand of looking out for opportunities of service and taking part therein.
 The positions which che boys or to day will occupy in 25 years depends
 upon their training now. If you say you are busy and haven't time to look
 out for the young people that IS all
 the more reason why you should make
 it your duty. It needs a man or wo-
 man with brains and red blood enough to keen busy to look out for the young people.
 Realization of Social Evils.
 This age of ours is under the con- viction of sin. It has not the fear of hell which characterized this country and especially this section at one time, but we are beginning to feel the evil of the social injustice. Is there any connection between long hours, unsan- itary conditions and poor pay TOT the girls in the shops and the white slave
 
 ourselves. Why are hospitals for the insane ever increasing? Why are our jails and our reform institutions al- ways filled? Why this growth of men tai deficiency? We feel possibly that we have been too busy with the pres ent and have forgotten the future We have exploited our children as we have our women so that there is little chance to bring into the world decent and physically healthy child. When there is no home life how can there be any home training? There are no homes where the wages are so far below the possibility of maintain ing homes. Whats the reason? Well, we are coming to the conclusion that what's nobody's business is every body's business. We thank God that the church is beginning to feel it's re- sponsibility. The call of God means not only that we be clean and de- cent in our own lives. but awake to social interests. cooperation of men and women to produce conditions of righteousness. We cannot expect good in the unfortunate individual while society is evil. We must Christian ize the life of the public so that we can point the finger of shame at the one who does not make good as we now do at the boy or girl of the clean Christian home who fails to make good.

BRANDEGEE SEEKS EARLY
 VOTE ON THE DAM BILL
His Effort to Procure Agreement for
 One Today Unsuccessful.

Washington, Feb. 13.-Practically all the various schools of conservation had their say today in the senate de- bate over the proposed passage of the Connecticut river dam bill.
 Senator Root advocated the right of the federal government to attach as a condition to the license to maintain the dam 8 requirement. of a payment to the federal government of DOT ton of the revenue obtained by the dam company for the aid of the navi- gation of the stream.
 Senators Works and Borah attacked this condition as stopping development of the resou1 ces of the country. Sen ator Poindexter expressed approval of the bill as being a step toward pre- serving the natural resources of the public by preventing their getting into the exclusive control of great monopo- liStic corporations.
 Efforts on the part of Senator Bran degee to procure an agreement to vote on the bill tomorrow failed, but he gave notice he would require consent to vote on Monday.

KINGDOM OF GOD HERE AND NOW Call of God Clear-Theme of Sermon by Rev Frank F.
 German of Ma1naroneck-Wss Preacher at Third of
 United Services For Episcopal Churches

The Lenten sermon at the union ser-
 vice of Christ and Trinity Episcopal churches, the third of the series held Thursday evening at the latter edifice was by Rev. Frank F. German, rector of St. Thomas church. Mamar- oneck. N. Y The evening prayer was led by the rector, Rev J. Eldred Brown and Rev. R. R. Graham of Christ church read the scripture lesson. Rev
 MT. German took his text from the second epistle of Paul to the Corinth
 ianS. sixth chapter first verse. And working together with Him we in treat also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain." He said in part:
 We are rapidly moving away from that idea of God which conceives of Him as a kind of oriental king who in the past has been extremely ac- tive, but who now at the conclusion of His work is resting in his glory watching the trials and strife of the human race. We are coming to ap- preciate another side of Gods nature, his present activity We realize that His work is not yet done; that He is working diligently today and we are bidden to the great privilege of work ing with Him in His great enterprise. to make the world harmonious and beautiful as far as human activities extend: the great enterprise of set ting up the kingdom of God on earth not in the distant future after death, but as the Great Master has taught, the kingdom of God here and now
 Vision Which Supported Paul.
 It was just such a vision that which caught and held and supported the great Christ in his tireless activ- ities and ministry The opening of the flower by the wayside in all it's beauties the gathering of the clouds, the noble hills, reflected to Him the activity, the presence, the power and protection of God. It was that splen- did conviction which made religion real It was this same conviction which accounted for PauPs activities And energy, that made him laugh at prisons and sing at the bottom of the pit. It was the conviction that God had called him to lend a hand in that splendid and beautiful work of tell ing the people that the kingdom of God was not alone for the Jews, and no more for the free man than for the slave. He was addressing lay men in a land where half the popu- latfon was in slavery. God has called you not to a life of ease, but to the hardships of a soldier with many bat ties, possibly defeats, but no final de- feat for the Great Captain has pledged that He will lead you to ul- innate victory. This is the vital kind of religion and when the spirit of God comes within you you will be moved to take up His service. With the feeling of this call to His service, life has joy not otherwise known.

A clever swindle is reported from
Crookston, where Gle Nelson, a farmer
living near Mapleton, lost a bunch Of
fifty-five cattle in a fraudulent trans
action with a smooth stranger.
Nelson had recently purchased the
cattle for $4,000, and had reached
Crookston with them Saturday after
noon on his way to the farm. He stop
ped there, and put the cattle in the
yards.
AT the hotel he met a man who gave
his name as Fred l.. Tanner, who was
interested in the cattle, and who offer
ed him $4,000 for the bunch. Tanner
called up the bank at Euclid, Mimi, and
in Nelson's hearing, arranged with the
bank to handle his check for the $4,000.
Nelson went to Casselton, and pre-
scented the check for payment at the
Cass County National bank. The bank
called up the Euclid ban as a pre-
caution, and learned that Fred Tanner
had no account there.
The authorities We're notified, and
Nelson learned that Tanner and the
cattle had both disappeared from
Crookston, though the freight office
stated that the cattle had not been
shipped. Evidently they were taken
from the city on foot. So far, no trace
has been found Of Tanner or the stol-
en- property.
