AooVAeiuOAe lu6n, DOJn Amerl-
can business men who contribute
to Sunday School work so gener-
ousyl of the large wealth which
God has intrusted to them. What
a blessing is wealth when rightly
used! How much real fun these
men must get of the spending of
many thousands of dollars annual.
~ in the interest of Gods king.
dom.
At one of the sessions pledges
were made for the work, and
$4,000 was raiesd in twenty
minutes. $45,OOO of the amount
was pledged by one man alone,
Mr.. Hartshorn Of Boston.
One of the most interesting ses-
sions of the whole convention was
that for children Sunday morn
ing at IL o'clock, when about
12C0 Sunday School children as
sembled in the beautiful building
where the main sessions of the
convention are being held, and
addresses were made to them and
they took part in the order OF ser,
vice for the day, which was the
same as you perhaps used on that
day, except, of course, it was in
the Swiss language. 1 wish you
might have heard the singing of
these 1900 Swiss Sunday School
children. 1t was very fine. After
the services they marched to a
nearby park, where they were
joined by several hundred others
who had been at a meeting in one
of the big churches, making per-
haps 1000 children, and accom-
panied by a splendid band, all
united in singing some of the
grand old hymns, winding up
with "Nearer My God to Thee"
in which all joined, in perhaps a
dozen different languages, max
ing a mighty volume of wonderful
music.
I wish I might tell you of the
splendid concert given Saturday
afternoon by a chorus of 400
voices and an orchestra of 42
pieces which those who are CON-
petent 10 judge say was as fine as
one will ever here anywhere, Of
the official interpreter of the con
vention who talks "a and reads 80
languages, and of them any in
spring and powerful addresses OF
the convention, but my letter is al
ready longer than I intended it
should be.
The convention closes tonight,
and we feel that it has been worth
the trip and that all who have
attended its sessions will have a
larger vision of the Sunday
School work and will be better
fitted for service.
We leave here tomorrow morn
ing for weeks sightseeing in
the heart Of the Swiss Alps, stop
ping at Lucerne, Interlaken, Gen
eva and other places, then going
to Paris for few days, after
which we will spend a few days in
England and Scotland before sail
ing August 5th from Liverpool to
Boston. We expect to reach
home about August Goth.
Sincerely,
M. B. CASSELL.

the the snow capped Alps, is the
largest city in Switzerland, was
the home Of that great reformer
Zwingli, who turned Switzerland
from the Catholic faith to protes.
tantism in the earlier part Of the
10th century. We visited the
church in which he preached, thel,
a Roman Catholic cathedral, now
protestant church, but just at
this time undergoing repairs. This
cathedral was built during the
reign of Charlemagne, first Rom
an Emperor Of the Middle Ages,
in the 9Th century, and altho 1900
years old is in excellent condition,
and the statute of Charlemagne
still adorns its southern tower.
This was also the home Of Goethe,
here Richard Wagner composed
many of his famous operas and
here was witnessed the first per-
formance on the stage of his
"Flying Dutchman" and "Tan-
nerhauser. - In the educational
line Heinrich Pestolozzi s wisdom
and devotion to the cause Of poor
children ensured his renown in
the world far and wide. The old
town is of historic interest-at
every step one meets with some
souvenir of the past-the new
town, on the other hand, gives us
the impression of an intensely
busy modern city. What splen-
did setting for a great World 8
Sunday School Convention, the
main sessions of which are held
in the Tonhalle, a post card pic
ture Of which send with this let
ter.
The big Sunday School folks Of
the whole. world, besides hundreds
of US little Sunday School folks,
are here. There are 1880 register
ed delegates, over half of whom
are from North America, besides
many hundreds of visitors who
are not registered as delegates.
We are proud that altho we have
travelled 5000 miles in coming
here, we find that the Americans
are the dominating people in this
covention.
We touch elbows with delegates
from Asia; Africa, South America,
Australia, all parts of Europe,
and far away India, China and
Japan. The 30,0O0,000 Sunday
School children Of the world are
all represented here.
It is. a wonderful privilege to
listen to such men as our own
Marion Lawrence, and to Carey
Bonner and F. B. Meyer of Lon
don, and to Bishop Vincent, Fred
B. Smith and John Alexander of
our own country. Also II. ].

Gives splendid account Of
trip and the Worlds
S. S. Convention.

Zurich, Switzerland, July Is, 1918
Dear Sunday School Folks:
Thinking that you might be in-
terested in knowing something
about our trip and the great
Worlds Sunday School Conven-
ton I'm going to write a short
letter to you.
AS you know, Mrs. Gassell and !
left Hope June 18th for the
Worlds Seventh Sunday School
Convention being held at this
place from July 9Th to 18th. The
first World s Conventionswas held
in London in 1889, and the others
have been st. Louis in 1895, Lon
don 1898, Jerusalem 1904, Rome
1907, Washington 1910, and the
next will be held in Rokio, Japan
in 1916, and ] hope that some Of
you may be able to attend that
convention. This convention has
been so wonderfully inspiring
that Mrs. Cassell and are hoping
that we can attend the next one
too.

Pull together, brethren. We
are all here for the same purpose.
Then live and let live. The best
way to build up a town is for each
and every man to pull together
and not to rend and pull down.
All the ersidents of town are
partners, not opponents. In all
likelihood, the more business done
by your rival the more you will
do.

expected to do 1t quiet like, hold the
Officer q day or 30 out in the desert,
an then turn him loose to howl. But
them plans didn't just exactly work.
The fellows daughter was with him,
when the pinch was made, an they
he'd to take her long too. Then the
officer man got ugly, an had to be
shot, an LIE Fevre Quarrelled with the

Of truth; 1t was the truth. So Dupont

The Sergeant walked over to the
fire, and stared down into the red en-
bers, striving to control himself. He
realized the truth OF all Hughes said,
and yet had to fight fiercely his incli-
nation to hasten to her rescue. The
very thought Of her alone In those
ruthless hands was torture. There was
no self1shness In the man't heart, no
hope of winning this girl for himself,
yet he knew now that he loved her;
that for him she was the one woman
in all the world. Her face was In his
memory; the very soughing Of the
wind seemed her voice calling him. But
the real man in him-the ~plainsman
instinct-conquered the impetuosity
of the lover. There must be no mis-
take made-no rash, hopeless effort.
Better delay, than ultimate failure,
and Hughes plan was the more practi-
cal way.
You're right, old man. Well watt"
he said sternly. Nov to get ready.

The other made q gesture with his
hand.

They plowed through the snow to-
gether, choking and coughing in the
thick swirl Of fakes that beat
against their faces. The three horses,
powdered white, stood tails to the
storm, with head to the bluff, while
the drifts completely covered Carroll.
He was sleeping. warm in the blan-
kets, and the two men picked him up
and stumbled along with their burden
to the shelter Of the cabin. Then
Hughes faced the blizzard again, lead
ing the horses to the corral, while
Hamlin ministered to the semi-con-
scious soldier, laying him out upon a.
pile Of soft skins. and vigorously rub
bling his limbs to restore circulation,
The la was stupid from exposure

Lord, no! Worse, If anything.

In the silence they could hear the
fierce beating against the door, the
shrieking Of the storm-fiend encom-
passing them about.

TO MEET FASHIONS CHANGE
No Longer Feasible to Buy Pretty
Dress and Put II Away for Use
in the Future.

Fashion is rapidly becoming a more
and more complicated affair and con
sequently, very much more interest
ing. The styles change so frequently
that they require yigilant eye fixed
upon them. 1t is no longer feasible
TO get several good" dresses and
keep them carefully in lavender in a
cupboard for q year before they are
worn, when they will do" for succeed
ing years with but little alteration.
Nowadays, when we acquire a new
frock II behooves us TO wear IL con
stantly and at once before IL grows
demode. This in any case Is much
the wiser plan, and one adopted by
tho farseeing French woman. Il is
always a bad policy to allow our frocks
to lie by, and we get much more wear
out OF them and present al infinitely
smarter appearance, by having our
frocks made for our immediate use.
Aimlessly to buy a dress because It is
pretty, without keeping in our minds
eye the occasions when we are likely
TO use 1t, must spell failure as vel
as extravaganza.
