Subject Is Pertinent.

Dr. Bowcrmau said in part:
\ subject that is ever fresh and
ever win be is one that has recently
been called To our attention, WHY
men do not go TO church. We
heard the question in childhood. our
fathers and grandlathers heard it
before us. They heard 1T in the daya
OF Jesus and lie gave the para bic OF
the supper the many hidden and
with one consent they began to
make excuse
The question as il is so often put
seems TO take il for granted that in
former days" men went 10 church
and IN these latter days" the habit
has very sadly declined. AS mat
ter of fact. men have never been
noted for any foudncss for church at
tendance. Statistics seem 10 show
that there has been Improvement
rather than decline More men in
proportion arc attending divine seiv-
ices and more men are actively en-
gagged In religious work.

Men Are Required.

II is becoming more and moro rec
ogniZed that the religion of Jesus
is IL mans job" and requires all
that there is In any man 10 begin in
any adequs tc way to fulfill the Condi
tions and requirements.
Why more men or why all men do
not attend divine services can be
answered under the text for the even
ing, lovers of self rather than lovers
OF God. Or. as another puts II, "Thev
are not willing TO pay the price.
There arc many excuses. the reasons
are very few. We are perfectly aware
that the churches are not all that
they should he; they are composed
Of imperfect men and women and the
spirit OF God will need ''mapy days
and years" to bring these sons and
daughters To glory" There are many
poor prca chers and some learned
ones that are very dry; nevertheless.
therc are also many good ones and
humanity is afforded the privilege
OF choosing. The true churches of
Jesus are, however, the best lnstitu-
lions In the world. and the land is

Lumber Growing Scarce.

In years past many of the great forest
belts OF the United States have been COM
pleteIy denuded of all growth. Hence
today they arc worthless as far as lumber
Is concerned. And the cost Of lumber
has crept steadily upward. In fact, the
alarnists have foretold OF the day when
there would be no lumber and when. be-
cause of the denuded watersheds floods
would cause almost a second deluGe over
tho land
While these views have been held as
too extreme by the moro conservative
conserva tionists. statistics do record an
increase of floods. particularly in the
Mississippi, Missouri and Ohio valleys,
which can be traced directly 10 the de-
nuded Watersheds. Thus, il was found.
