Golden Text.-Pilate saith unto them,
What, the... shall do unto Jesus, VINO

The Lesson Explained. Verses lila.
In a dilemma.
The decision condemning Jesus TO
death was made by acclamation, and
this was wholly contrary to the law.
1t now remained for these murderous
men to have their verdict Endorsed by
PLATE, am they anticipated difficult
ties because they knew the obstinate
character of the Roman governor. The

they came to the governor for the ex-

WHAT BRYAN SAYS ABOUT
THE VALUE OF ADVERTISING
Hint Which Was Once Offered to
Business Men by the Seere-
tary Of State.

The business man who expects TO
succeed in this day and generation
must be up to date and often a little
ahead of the calendar. There are
many merchants and other business
men who complain that competition is
too close. but competition can be over
come by genuine hustling of an intel
ligent sort. In this age, which is the
age of advertising. the small merchant
cannot expect TO compete with the big
fellow i'm his own community unless
he uses some of the big merchants
methods or goes him one better and
invents methods Of his own which are
superior to the other fellows as bust
ness puiiers.
On this sopie of advertising TO get
home trade and keep home trade from
going out TO mail trade or travel trade
many bright things have been said and
written lately. William Jennings Bry-
an is credited with an expression
which proves that his wisdom is not
partisan. He was the guest OF honor
at a banquet in Reading. Pa, sev erai
years g when somebody asked him:
Mr.. Bryan, do you think advertising
is profitableT"
Mr.. Bryan was almost stuI ed for
the moment-that question was such a
STARTER. the reply so obvious. The
commoner soon recovered, however,
and handed out this unique remark:
"A fellow who tries to attract bust
ness without advertising is like the fell
low who throws his sweetheart a 81
lent kiss in the dark. He knows what
he is doing. but nobody else does"
The banquet company smiled at the
cleverness of the remark, but probably
most of them forgot it by the time
cigars were passed around. But one
guest. an advertising expert, set 1t
down in his notebook to hand along to
future generations.
ut is worth reading yer and over"
he said. land the more you read it the
more you see In 1t. But think Of ask
ing Mr.. Bryan if advertising pays"

The best materials obtainatie were
used throughout. The floor and foun-
dation are of concrete with drain to
carry off waste water.
The siding Is of matched lumber put
on vertically so water will run down
instead of following boards and run
ming into cracks as it often does when
siding is applied horizontally.
The building Is lined with plaster
board. making q double wall which Is
cooler in summer and warmer in win
ter. The interior is painted with
white waterproof paint so the walls
can be washed when necessary.
The main feature of this house Is the
location. which is almost ideal. Being
ninety feet from the COW barn on
somewhat higher ground than the lat
ter, it complies with sanitary require
ments. 1t is near the dwelling and
convenient to driveway for loading
milk on wagon. \ tree growing near
by is on the south side. giving ample
shade except In early morning and late
evening.
The water for cooling the milk Is
supplied by a windmill, and all of the
water used by the stock passes through
the aerator and cooling tank. thus low
ering the temperature of the house by
several degrees.
This dairy house may seem small for
twenty cows. but by careful arrange
ment of the equipment 1t is ample. and
In selling whole milk not as much room
Is required as though cream o, butter
were marketed. BY having a water
tight cover for the cooling tank it can
be used as a table for washing pals
and utensils, thus saving space.

derstand that some veterinarians are
prescribing crude acid, but here the
pure acid is preferred. The dose Is

No other German officer, say the ex-

General Alexander Won Kluck was
born in Westphalia in 1916 and is

A For SOLDIERS

More than 100000 cigars and many
hundreds of thousands of cigarettes,
together with large quantities of to-
bacco, have been sent to the German
soldiers in the field by public subscrip-
ton in answer to the appeal recently
sent to Berlin newspapers by the Ger
man crown prince, according to a re-
port.
The report says that inasmuch as
hundreds of thousands OF cigars and
cigarettes are smoked by the soldiers
each day the necessity Of constantly
continuing these contributions Is i'm
perative. Already in many parts Of
Germany there have been organiza-
tions formed the members of which
agree to abstain from tobacco in order
to send to the soldiers In the field the
cigars and cigarettes asked for in their
behalf.

WARM CLOTHES FOR GERMANS

All the high class shops that former

In the manufacture of sheepskin cloth

10000 fur coats have been delivered,
presumably for the use of officers. and
100000 sheep and lamb skins have
been bought by the government for
winter garments for the mel. Consid-
cradle difficulty has been experienced
in procuring these skins, as Austria
and the Balkans, whence most of them
come, already have forbidden their ex-
port, but these difficulties have. it is
said, been overcome by the purchase
of all skins bought for glovemaking,
and the men Who are ordinarily en-
ployed in the glove industry have been
withdrawn from the ranks and now
are working day and night to provide
the soldiers with skin clothing. For
the cavalry special leather leg protec-
tors are being made out of leather in
