ALLISON HILL ACTIVITIES

~ REATER activity among men OF
this city in religious work has
~ been a topic of comment for
some time in the pulpit and
press. On Allison Hill, particularly, a
growing interest among men in church
activity has been noticeable.
Doubtless one of the most powerful
3nfiuences in this movement has been
due to the efforts of the Allison Hill
Mems Christian Association, organized
n little over half a year ago. In the
ranks of the association are the fore
most lay leaders of every church on
the Hill. Live wires have been push
Sunday afternoon from three to four
hundred men-many of whom are not
church members-attend special meet
ings for men only held in a Hill mov-
ing picture theater
Evidence of the energy that is back
of the association is seen in the an
nouncement that the organization has
called to its assistance DR.. Henry
Slough, the evangelist. who, next to
Billy Sunday, has made more CONVEX
sions, perhaps, than any other man in
the country to-day.
Early next Fall the Allison Hill
Mems Christian Association will bring
DIR. Slough to this city to wage a
gigantic evangelistic campaign. A
great tabernacle, capable of seating
5000 people, will be erected by the
association and efforts will be made to
bring the many thousands now "out
of the fold into the church
Another proof that the Hill asso-
citation is made up of live wires is
given in that the organization believes
in publicity and is doing much of its
educational work through a campaign
In which newspaper advertising plays
a big part.

Helping the

Who Helps You

Mr.. Merchant:-WOrk with the
manufactures who In enterprising
enough 10 help make market
for you rather than with the one
who does nothing.
OF course you must keep the
kind of goods the public wants
But where all things are equal
you should let 1t be known that
you will be more friendly
towards the goods of the man
who helps you market them than
to the one who stocks up your
shelves with his goods and lets
you get rid of them the best way
you can.
AS rule. advertised goods un-
der standard name are of better
quality than the nondescript
kind. because the manufacturer
of the former is striving to build
a reputation.
When you put your own name
on a brand of goods you are
pretty certain as to the quality
are you not?
The manufacturer has more at
stake than you have.
The reason the public favors
advertised goods is that it has
come to know that advertised
brands are usually the best.

REDFIELD, THE FUNNY MAN

"HE funniest man in President
Wilson's cabinet is one who has
L absolutely no sense of humor
and who entertains us by his alb
surd solemnity. Secretary Redfield is
no Mark Twain. He cannot play on
words and get off striking "cute
things" as Vice-President Marshall
does. He is not witty like Bryan, but
he can say and do the most ridiculous
things ever attributed to a Depart
ment Secretary.
Just now he is engaged in the old
task of touring the country for the
purpose of telling the people how
prosperous they are. 1t has never
occurred to him that prosperity does
not need to be pointed out A man
knows without being told when he is
hungry and when he is not hungry.
But the big laugh in Secretary
Redfeld's recent performances is his
serious assertion that the tariff has
lowered the cost of living by attract
ing food supplies from other coun-
tries. He tells US how much meat
and butter have come in. how many
bushels OF potatoes and crates of
eggs.
He does not quote a single instance
in which the prices of these products
have not gone up instead OF down
since the passage of the Underwood
tariff law.
government Statistician has fig
ured out from the imports that the
total amount of beef brought in since
October first would allow every man,
woman and child in the country ex-
actly half pound in five months and
that the total butter imports amour,
to only one-half ounce per capita for
the same period of time. 1t is moi
necessary to inquire further for the
causes of the Underwood laws failure
to bring down the high cost of living
although 1t is very easy to see how
an increase of approximately 225.O0C
cattle and an increase of 4.2OO.OOC
bushels of corn and an increase OF
100000 bushels of oats and an
increase of 2,SOO,O0O bushels of pota-
toes in the imports for five months
would have very serious effect upon
the prices quoted to our producers.
If it is any satisfaction to Mr.. Red
field to know that his party's tariff
has hit the farmer, he may be as
sured that the facts. bear him out, but
before he presumes to boast of the
laws benefit to the consumer, he had
better consult the housewife who
knows great deal more about it than
he does.

PREACHERS SONS WHO MADE GOOD
[From the Christian Herald

From the Christian Herald.1
When a minister's son or daughter
goes wrong, the chronic critics and the
uncharitable in spirit point to them
and say, why do preachers children
turn out badly?" Nothing could be
farther from the truth than such a
notion. Ministers children turn out
well, better than any others in the COM
munity. There are exceptions, but this
is the rule. This fact has been recent
ly mentioned in a sermon by the Rev.
Robert Hugh Morris preached in the
Central North Broad Street Presby-
terian Church. of Philadelphia Among
other things DR.. Morris said
"Of the fffty-one names in the Ma
tional Hall of Fame, twenty are from
ministers homes: Roger Williams,
Jonathan Edwards. William Ellery
Charming, Emerson. Holmes, Henry
Clay, AgassiZ. Bancroft, Beecher. Stowe.
Lowell and Phillips Brooks, being fifty
times more than a proportion proper if
other families measured up to the stan
dard OF our twenty-seven Presidents
three, were ministers sons, Arthur.

five were ministers daughters: Mrs.
John Adams Mrs. Millard Fillmore.

SATURDAY EVENING, FEB. %
MIR. BRYAN'S OVERSIGHT

w YHEN Senator Lodge called or
M Secretary of State Bryan and
w pointed out to him that the
proposed new treaty with
Denmark provided for the arbitration
of the Monroe Doctrine, Mr.. Bryan
was surprised.
He said that he had not given any
thought to that phase of the ques-
tion. AS a consequence, the treaty
has been halted for repairs.
What are we to think of a Secre-
tary of State who is "thoughtless'
enough to overlook so basic a prin-
ciple as the Monroe Doctrine? If he
had deliberately over-ridden it, we
might have excused him, but to con-
fess he did not know it was there, is
enough to shake our confidence in his
qualifications for the high office he
holds
Evidently, Mr.. Bryan has not been
so successful in running the State De-
partment as a side issue to the Chau-
tauqua circuit as he would have us
believe.
