REV, Mr.. BARNES
SPEAKS ON PRAYER
Local Advent Preacher is Speaker
At Advent Convention

AT the convention of the Advent
Christians in Springfield yesterday the
Rev. Irving F.. Barnes of this city,
among other things said. that above
all he wanted to be practical with
the subject of prayer. It is a prac-
teal subject and has a practical ap-
plication to life. He said that pray
er is the greatest thing God has given
US, because it is the power behind the
hand that moves the world But in
come bubbling right out of the heart
in whatever Language and rhetoric
that happens to clot1e it, and must
be persistent and answering in faith.
Some preachers say that men should
pray only believing fully that God
will answer. 1t doesn't matter what
style of prayer or whether one puts
himself fully into it, but only that he
should go through the motions with
faith that God will do the rest. Those
preachers say that after all there is
little real reason to~expect that God
will answer outright, but the action is
a fine spiritual exercise for mortals
anyway. Rev. Mr.. Barnes condemn
ed this attitude heartily.
Mr.. Barnes beIieNes that this is an
age for work, and that works count.
but little of present-day work has
enough supernatural aid such as
righteous prayer will bring. Some
people Try TO enIlSC TINS supernatural
aid, but they really do not pray. They
merely "say'' prayers ,or make
them or 'toffer' them. whereas the
Christian who reaches out for God
actually prays without furbe1ows or
fancies. The power of God is just
as strong to-day as in Che days of the
prophets, and miracles are performed
to-day just as truly as wassthe blind
man made to see There are hun
dreds of instances where the power of
God has shown itself in changing the
characters of individuals, in moving
whole cities to action and in actually
freeing men from physical affliction.
But, in order that prayers may be
effective, they must be lived. A man
who is known as a, hypocrite in private
life might stand in a, pulpit and vo-
ciferously shout prayer words, with
absolutely no effect. If he would
have people hear him and be reach
ed by him. he must live a prayerfuI
life. But, above all, the man who
prays must feel his ~utterances from
his very soul. He must be reaching
out for God and must have the in
wrought spirit of God. That is the
trumpet can to prayer.

FAVORS SCHOOLS
FOR POLITICS
FORMER GOVERNOR HADLEY
WOULD HAVE THEM AT COL
LEGES LIKE YALE AND
HARVARD.

Ex-Governor Hadley of Missouri. in
an Interview with the Journal-Cour-
Ter, during his visit in New Haven
advocated the fuller participation OF
college men in politics and the estab-
lishment of a school of politics at such
eastern universities as Yale, Harvard
and Columbia. Incidentally he also
favored strongly schools of journalism.
and recited with pride the fact that
the University of Missouri was the
pioneer in the field of Journalism as
part of the college curriculum.
THE college man cannot show too
much interest in politics and states
manship,' said the governor, "and
there is eminent cause for congratula-
ton in the fact that the college man
is showing a more dominant tendency
to enter the political arena. There is,
need, still, of more practical spoliti-
clans, from college circles, graduates
who take an active part in the gov.
evolve splendid theories which never
work out
college men should regard it as
their duty to take part in the govern
ment, nor for monetary considera-
ton, because there is not enough in
1T to persuade men in that direction,
but because 1t is the duty of every cit
i2en to take part in government.
Governor Ha4ey held, too, that of
fetal salaries, while they have not
are not so small as might be expect
ed A public office, however, he
thought should not be means Of ex-
istenee.
He favored school of instruction
in politics, taught by practical poIiti-

a course in eastern universities.

Miss Frances Powers, Of Boston, came
yesterday from George w. Johnston.
of SIS Liberty. ST., this city, secretary
of Father BuePs class at Yale.
"A month ago. said Mr.. Johnston,
Il received an engraved announce
menty of his marriage to Miss Powers,
EDt have not seen him since. He gave
ne an address in this city where
could find him. but since the announce
ment was made I tried to do so I'M
successfully. At the address he gave
me 1 learned that he had left and1
that he was not expected to return I
cannot tell where this was, as he told
it to me in confidence.
THE last time I saw Mr.. Buel was
at a class reunion held at the Yale
club Nov 80. AT that time he said
nothing of his approaching marriage;
I was much surprised when I received
the formal announcement.
Mr. Johnston said, that he, supposed
the marriage took place in this city,
but inquiry at the marriage license
bureau failed to disclose the issuance
of a license to the couple. 4
Rev. Father Gasson, president ~of
Boston College. a friend of the Pow
ers family was quoted as confirming
the report of the marriage.

tractor.
The family of Miss Katherine F.
Powers of Boston refused yesterday to
discuss the marriage of the young
woman with Rev David Hinhouse
Buel, former president of Georgetown
university, and Jesuit priest of note
Mrs Buel when seen indirectly admit
ted that she is the bride of the former
priest, but would say nothing more
Where the priest is could not be
learned
The Powers family are staunchs Ro-
man Catholics and the maEriage of
their daughter is i great shock to
them The mother is dead and the
family is composed of the father, Ed
ward J. Powers, a. mason, and five
other daughters
The first great mistake Bue1 made,
according to a priest who knew him
in Boston.~was to get permission from
the Father Superior of the Jesuits,
under decided /, Misrepresentation to
travel. He came to Boston and met
Miss Powers at AlIerton, and there the
cour tship took place, unknown to
friends or members of the girls fam

The quality of Rogers clothes, are

Bridgeport men, and it is therefore
unnecessary to dwell on this point, for
a casual glance at the display win

and tailoring in the suits displayed
there; but the real test comes in the
wear, and right here is where Rogers
clothes have made good Those who
have worn them have remarked that
they keep their shape" absolutely, do
not break in the folds and give all

buy a suit or overcoat of the Rogers

fail to take advantage of.
