thing as a Sunday religion, to be
discarded during the week for
other things. What the trouble
with the people today is, they are
grasping for the commercial in
terests and making religion sec
ondary. 1 would rather live in
the humblest hut III the land and
live on bread and water than to go
to hell in an automobile, as a
great many are doing.

Here Is Where
Central Station Electric
Power Saves Money
For You

Central station electric power elimi-
mates shutdowns and depreciation on
on private power plant.
1t reduces to a fraction the invest
ment in1power machinery and makes
unnecessary planning far into the fu-
ture for power plant additions.
The fexibility Of electric drive, the
economy of individual motors, and
reliability of central station service
makes Central Station Electric Power
THE BEST, MOST ECONOMICAL
AND MOST SATISFACTORY
POWER for any user, large or

sizes money before men are real

8. Length Of services. com

to the wise.
These criticisms speak for
themselves. In some respects
they do not give the church full
justice. Next week on effort
will be made to show that not
all the blame rests on the church.
According to the men themselves

ANSWERS FROM THE MEN
THEMSELVES

First, as to local conditions,
there is a decided improvement.
All churches in OkoIona report
increased attendance. AS to the
church where happen to minis
ter, the average attendance for
the two months just past has
been more than twice that of the
two months proceeding. If the
connt had been made Of the men
and women separately, possibly
the increase en- the part of the
men would have been fourfold.
FAULTS OF THE CHURCH.
In the recent symposium we tried
to deal fairly with all reasons
suggested along this line. Here
we only present a brief outline.

and better preaching. Not a.

expressed decided Opposition to a
Christmas truce in the European war.
1t would be un-Christianlike and iin-
moral, he said, to stop fighting, then
resume 1t. He added he could not be-
lieves that any nation which adopted
such suggestion was doing 1t sim
cerely.
Mr.. Carnegie gave it out as his opinl
Ion that the military caste in Ger
many was responsible for the war and
that at the time hostilities broke out
the kaiser was i'll and opposed to the
war.
'The kaiser has told me that he
took the greatest pride in the fact
that he reigned for many ysara with
out being involved in war" said Mr.
Carnegie. But he was surrounded by
q ring OF militarists who were eager
for war at any price"
Mr.. Carnegie said ne hoped that the
world would be so horrified over the
low. -
Mr. Carnegie showed SOME interost
iE p buegestion that .he might be CALI
ed upon by the president to help
bring about peace. when the time
came. tIS
u will do anything possibly can,n
he said aI believe Mr. Wilson ear
nestly desires peace"
For the men In the trenches Mr.
Carnegie expressed greatest sympathy.
Speeding OF Germany's part IN the
war, MIR. Carnegie said he s,Aieved
the emperor WIS i'll when the conflict
broke ont as ne is now. He expressed
; great sympathy for the emperor and
said he knew his "heart must be
broken over the break in his pence
full reign!
!! Later Mfr. Carnegie called OF Sec
retary Bryan.
1T seems to be incongruouS-in
fact. an impertinence," he said after
wards, that the nations should pray
to the Prince OF Peace when every day
their, nieti are killing each other"
Asked IL he had heard of any de-
velopnaent looking toward peace. he
| shook his head regretfuliy.

Elsewhere along the front there hav
been artillery duels with occasional

then the other. Vice Admiral Sturdee
reports to the admiralty that the Brit
ish suffered remarkably small loss
in the naval engagement Off the Falk-
