BOY SCOUTS
Present at the Revival Meeting
The Cash Reward Not
Claimed

An audience one-half larger tnan on
the previous night was present last
night at the Methodist church. Dur
ing tine cong service at the beginning of
the meeting the people were agreeably
surprised by the entrance in u body
of the local troop of boy scouts. They
are a fine lot of real live boys and
made "a good showing as they passed
to the seats reserved for them, while
the big chorus sang the marching
song, Coward, Christian Soldiers"
After prayer by Rev. john Kaale,
Prof. Linton sang 1.-THE Pierced
Prince" pronounced by many the most
beautiful and effective solo that he
has yet given in this series of meet
ings. The sermon was on the Bible
question, "How shall we escape if we
neglect so great salvation 2" and no
one claimed the cash reward for a
correct answer to it. The pastor spoke
on the necessity of escaping from the
guilt, the pollution, the power and
the penalty of sin and of the fatal
consequences of neglect. "a forgot
ten sin is not a forgiven SIM" he said.

meeting and banquet at the Carpenter
hotel.
No radical changes are made in the
law relating to commission governed
cities which was recently passed by
the legislature, but the laws of this
subject are codi6ed and put into q
concise form. The city commission
is empowered under the new law to
take mp warrants of the city state
bonds and school bonds with the mon.
ey in the sinking fund. These war
rants bear 6 per cent while the money
in the sinking fund bears only 9 per
cent Heretofore this fund could not
be used except to take up bonds and
the money in the fund cannot under
the new law be expended for any
other purpose but it may be invested
in public securities which mature be-
fore the bonds become due, which the
sinking fund is to take up.
