good auto driver is recognized by the
noise he doesn't make. If he permits
his engine to run away and disturbs
the whole of Third street. he is a
novice; but if he stops and starts in an
easy, quiet manner, he is an expert.
Some who have had machines for

The assumption is that most of this hoarded gift money. for it is for this purpose that it is specifically in tended, will be spent in Danielson during the holiday shopping period. Many of the club members have ex- pressed qualification over the fact that they will not have to worry this year about meeting their Christmas ex- pense account. The little sacrifices they havo made for months past ere about to be rewarded.

How Ear seIdlers Step.

In marching there is great variety amongst the soldiers of Europe as re- gards both length of step and rapidity of pace.
 The British infantry are said to take the longest stride of all. this Is 31 1-2 inches, and says a good deal for the fine athletic qualities of John Bull. Next come Germany and Switzerland. each stepping 31 inches; whilst 2s inches is the distance covered at one pace by the soldiers of France. Aus tria and Italy.
 The Russians. in spite of the fact that they have many more miles to cover when mobilizing than any other nation, take the shortest stride of all,, 27 1-2 inches.
 Last April company of the Lon don Rifle Brigade marched to Brighton at a pace averaging just over four miles an hour. and thus broke the worlds military marching record, before was held by the French for- eign legion. who did a march of fifty miles in 15 Is hours The Rifle Bril- gade beat this we'll. taking only four teen hours twenty-three minutes to cover fruy-rwo miles.-Tit-B Bits.

UNITED MISSIONARY CAMPAIGN.
Conference Here Dec. 18th and 14th- Six Churches to Unite to Increase lnteD est in Missions and Local Work Team of Experts to Assist.


 SkS Putnam churches have arranged 9 conference here for Sunday and Monday, December 13th and 14th, ua- der w11aat is known as The United Missionary Campaign plan. The in tention Is to arouse interest by serv- ices ana meetings and a mems supper with outside speakers; and later to make house to house canvass of all the members for systematic offerings. The spectacle of so many congrega- tions uniting in prayer and practical work ought to have the same effect here as lt has elsewhere-a profound impression for good.
 Two ideas underly this method: The frat Is uited effort. The second is universal response. Each church will appeal to all it's adflerents to do their part; and all concerned will make the same appeal at the same time and in substantially the same way.
 Sunday morning. ar the regular ser- vices, Missions will be the topic in all pulpits. At seven o'clock there will be a Union service at the Baptist church. On Monday the pastors of confer at 10 a. m. at the Congrega- tional church; where will also be held 9 Church o>eerE' Council at 2.3o r. nn.; and mems ssarer at SIS.
 The Congreaa sl Baptist. Mesiao- dist Epsscopai. .lTeat and Zion have already been aeid, and commit tees appointed. Each committee will hold meetings By itself; and members of all committees will meet next Sun day, December 9th, at D. nn., at St. Philips church. There are committees on arrangements and supper publicity, finance and statistics and literature. Since the experts are all salaried men the only expenses to be met locally are for travelling, entertainment, print ing and small incidentals; and the to- tai will not exceed $35.
