The hall was full aud many were unable to gain admission The attendance was esti mated at 75O Rev. Felix J O'Neil, pastor of St. Edwards church, in an address of welcome said that as a preacher he naturally turned to his Bible for text befitting the occasion. He felt that the words of St. Paul to the Corinthians, ''The love of Christ constraineth us" or as it has been otherwise translated, " The char ity of Christ urges us," expressed the mptive and spirit of such gather ing. Just as Christ knew no lines or difference when ministering to human need, sn his followers of different churches and contradictory creeds draw no lines of prejudice when called upon to relieve suffering "Our church bells chime together in har- mony," he said, "but our pulpits are in discord. Despite this sad fact we can all meet harmoniously on the plat form of Christian charity" pr. Jas. Stretch made an appeal for the Bel g ian relief fund in which he pictured | the suffering and distress of the Bel gian people, and showed how necessary it is that help should come speedily f and generously from this country, 1 which almost alone among the great nations is in position to give aid. Rev Percy V. Norwood, chairman of the committee, had charge of the exercises.

SLIGHT INSIGHT INTO
TROUBLE WITH CHURCHES

In the March Woman's Home
Companion, Bruce Barton writes an
article entitled, why Fifty Women
20 to Church" Last month he pub
lished an article entitled. why Fiji
ty Women do not go TO Church" He
has interviewed several hundred rep
resentative women living in widely
different localities and asked them
for frank expression of opinion. A
woman tells. as follows, what she
thinks is the real trouble with the
church:
II suppose the real trouble with
our church is that it is struggling to
adapt itself to a changed community
life. For all the years of its earlier
existence 1t was the sole means of
social intercourse, the only social
center, the only clearinghouse of
community life. People came to it
gladly on Sunday, not merely for
the inspiration that il gave but be-
dUsC IL ANU lhCAil OpPoituh-
ity to meet each other, and to visit
together after the morning service.
Now there are so many other activi-
ties that bring them together; trans
portation is so improved and com
munication so easy that this great
motive for church attendance has
lost its power. Moreover, the SER
mon is no longer the sole means of
intellectual enlightenment. Every |
present day sermon must put itself |
into competition with a score of |
articles that have been |
brought into the community during |
the week, with the daily papers. and |
the great resources of the public |
libraries. II is no wonder that |
church attendance has dropped off; |
but my strong belief is that the
need of the community for the |
church is so vital that it will never |
pass out of our life. 1t must read
just itself; | stand loyal TO it be-
cause / hope to help it work out that

RECLAIMED LOST MIND.
FORGETS EARLY CAREER
Pulling Experience OF Dual
Personality Lived By
Philadelphia.

Philadelphia, March 21.-ln the
strange case of Prof. NJ. w. Harring-
ton psychologists have found the
most puzzling riddle of a dual per-
sonality that has been brought into
public notice in many years.
Prof Harrington to all intents
and purposes has lived one life,
finished il. then entered upon anoth-
er life at the opposite pole of hduan
temperament, habit and thought.
The true story of this weird cir
cumstance was told by the Pro-
fessor's wife. who is living in Lans-
dale a suburb OF this city.
Prof. Harrington is now nearing
20 years Of age. Until eight years
ago he was greatly interested in
mathematics. natural science AMI
educational pursuits. He was home
loving, interested in political econ
oTny. Jealous for public service and
Intensely pratical.
) Sin yearc ago he disappeared and
a few days later an unidentified man
was founl mumbling on 1Cnch in
a public park in Trenton, y. ]. He
did Mt know who he was or whence
he had come and was sen! TO an
asylum. Months afterward he was
identified by Mrs. Harrington as her
husband. " y
As the years sped on the Professor
regained tho faculty Of normal
thought and then ii was discovered
that he mentally was not the same
man at all.
To-day he is in New York earning
a handsome income as musician.
He detests political economy. He,
loves music and plays many instru
ments so well that he ranks among
the foremost He is no longer
home-lover but prefers to be about
in the gay life of the studio; he is
not practical; he spends all he re-
ceives. and that Is a great deal, his
wife says
And he does not remember one
jot OF his old life, he says, but has a
dim. hazy recollection that his wife
is something to him.

Geese Kill Boy,

Racine, Wis, March 21.-Frank
Cloumiek, 10 years old, son of a
goose farmer at Wind Point, north
of this city, while trying to drive
geese from the Lake Michigan shore
to the front yard of his home just
before feeding time to-day, hit the
boss gander of the flock with stick
and so angered the huge bird that he
turned upon the child with the rest
of the geese. and five minutes after
Frank was rescued by his father he
died. Physicians say the boy died
of commissions. due to the attack,
but his eyes had been picked out
and he was otherwise badly injured.
His father killed three of the birds
before they would leave the child.
