The Gospel Meetings

The gospel meetings are surely
worthy Of their name. From the
very start there has been a large at
tendance. and close attention.
The music has been more than
music--it has been a message of
warning and Of cheer. Not all
christians, but great many, have
been deeply in earnest, and on Mon
day night when President Frost ask
ed who would join him in a special
conservation, more than three hun
dred responded and came forward
in the most childlike devotion. II is
always the consecration OF Christ
ians which makes possible a great
blessing 10 the whole community.
Out Of such conservation comes
PRAYER and work.

Measles is spread by those who
have the disease. The disease starts
when the fever, aching and cough
begins. The eruption is merely an
incident. Some patients do not have
it at all. Every child with fever,
cough and watery eyes should be
isolated. If the disease turns out
to be an ordinary cold, not much has
been lost. On the other hand, mea-
sles is most contagious before the
breaking out appears.
