MEN MUST ANSWER
 QUESTION OF SCRIPTURE
Rev. F. w. Coleman Tells Audience at
 Shop Talk.


 The Y M. c. 4. conducted a shop meeting at the Crescent Arms com pany on Wednesday noon. Rev. F w. Coleman of Trinity Methodist Episcopal church talked to the men on the subject of What Will You Do With Christ?
 The gospel Is somewhat like the sun, he said. It makes some things grow and other things wither. If you accept the gospel you are saved and If you reject it you come into condemnation. Jesus stands before you and you must choose. It is a matter of very great importance and should deeply concern every man. In some matters it makes title difference whether you accept or reject, but this is a great and momen- tous question and one that forces it. self upon you whether you will or not I urge you today to make the right decision and thereby avoid the awful consequences of rejection of Jesus Christ

A GENERAL SURVEY OF
The WAR

The last week of August finds the
German armies of invasion steadily
pressing forward toward Paris, op-
posed at every step by the armies of
the allies. Great Britain has landed
another expeditionary force at Ostend,
the size of which cannot be learned.
which seems to be intended first, to
provide for the defense of Ostend
against the Germans, and second as
menace to the German right flank, rear
and communications.
During the week the operations in
Belgium and northern France were
characterized by the continued ad.
vance of the Germans all along the
line. Longwy, Lille. Namur and other
Belgian and French towns fell into the
hands of the invaders. The British
forces were engaged in tie vicinity

L0UVAlN HEAP OF ASHES
Belgian City of 10000 Wiped Out b,
Germans.


The Belgian foreign minister re.
ports that the Belgian city of Louvain
in the Province of Brabant has been
burned by the Germans.
On Tuesday a German army corps
after receiving a check withdrew in
disorder to Louvain. The inhabitants
were ordered to leave their dwellings
and some were made prisoners. The
women and children were placed on
trains the destinations of which are
not known and soldiers furnished with
bombs set fire to all parts of the city.
"The splendid church of st. Pierre,
the university buildings, the library
and scientific establishments were de.
livered to the flames.
Several notable citizens we're shot.
The city which had a population Of
100000 and was the intellectual me.
tropolis of the low countries, is now
nothing more than heap of ashes,"
says the minister.
when the Germans were retiring
upon the city the Germans on guard
at the entrance of the city mistaking
the nature of this incursion, fired upon
their countrymen whom they mistook
for Belgians.
'In spite of all the denials from the
authorities the Germans in order 10
cover their mistake, pretended that 1t
was the inhabitants. Including the po.
lice, all had been disarmed more than
week before.
Without inquiry and without listen.
ing to any protest the German com.
mander announced that the town
would be destroyed Immediately"
