Seeking a Religion

In the New Patriotism we are be-
ginning to recognize at last that IMAM
cannot live by bread alone, but by ev-
cry word that proceedeth out of the
mouth of God" We realize that it
would not be sufficient to give, by le-
gal decree, food and warmth and GER
tain material Injuries to our cold and
starving brothers; that discomfort
and selfish greed are not to be over
come by distribution. Of what signi-
ficance, otherwise, were the yearning
which pervades all elements of the ma
ton today? Art, literature, science,
music and philosophy have their place
yes, and religion. Are we not seek
ing for a religion?-From THE Mod
ern Quest for Religion" by Winston
Churchill in the Century"

MISS OLIVE AYLEswoRTH, SINGER

Evangelist Lewis breaches the plain,
straight Gospel with simplicity, yet with
great power. He uses much of the good
old Anglo-Saxon language-plain words
to express plain truths, and attacks social
evils of the day with intrepidity and de-
picts things as he finds and sees them
with dauntless courage Of spirit that is
rather disconcerting to those not ready
for the truth. A noted divine is quoted
as saying that he "did not approve of
the methods of the Salvation Army, but
that God seemed to-" Gods approval
reduces mans opposition to a minus
quantity.
Last Friday evening the Boys and
Girls Sunshine chorus of about 60 voices
occupied the platform and under Mr.
Lewis direction pulled off some very
clever stunts, yells and songs Every
one was pleased with the children-they
will sing again this Friday night. Don't
miss hearing them.
Last Sunday D. m. Evangelist Lewis
spoke to large audience OF men, taking
for his subject "A Lop.Sided Man" He
said some very plain things and most
strenuously maintained that fully sur
rendered life is one of purity of both mind
and body.
Next Sunday at 230 p. m. Mr.. Lewis
will speak to women and girls over IL
only. A plain straight message; subject,
"Why men go wrong" Every woman
in town should hear this message.
The exceptionally fine playing and
singing at each service by the trio is the
source OF much pleasure and enjoyment
to those that appreciat e good music.
You can't afford to miss hearing these
people sing A travelling man was heard
to remark 1T was worth a great deal
just to hear Miss Aylesworth play the
piano.
Evangelist Lewis will give one Of his
strongest messages; subject, "How much
do you weight" The subject for Thurs
day night will be us there a He'll, if so,
what, where and how long?" Besure to
hear this message. Friday night the
Sunshine chorus will sing and MIR. Lewis
subject will be Prom Rubbish to Dia
monds"-a great message Saturday
night subject, is there personal devilf"
Sunday morning at 1890 subject, Are
you fullF' Sunday at $3.50 p. m.-wo-
men only-'Why men go wrong"
The date for closing the campaign has
not been definitely settled upon but other
fields are urging the Evangelists to begin
work with them. The closing service will
be very~impressive one and the chorus
has begun practice upon music for this
great Pink Rose Service" taking its
name from the true story how Mrs. Il.
M, Whittemore, a wealthy New York So
ciety woman, by the use of pink rose,
rescued Della" one of the worst char
acters from the sub-celars of New York
slums. The choir for this service is
dressed in white and wear pink roses.
Every detail of arrangements for the ser
vice is in harmony with the beautiful
theme. Watch for a special announce.

Matter of Friends.

It is good to have a friend, but it is
better to be friend. The gain of be-
ing unselfshly loved and sympathized
with and helped and cheered, is not to
be compared with the gain of unself-
ishly loving and sympathizing and
with helping and cheering another. No
glad incoming to ones heart from
without can uplift and enlarge it like
the expansive force of a generous and
self-forgetting love outworking from
within.-H. Clay Trumbull.

Queer English DUTY,

Americans will be interested to
know that from 1860 it has been GUS
tomary to take duty as one of the
hereditary customs of the crown. In
1860 there was a duty of eight pence
gallon on all the tea liquor sold in
all coffee houses-a great inconveni-
ence to tea drinkers, because it was
surveyed only twice day by the e1-
else officers, and so could only be
brewed twice day.-London Mail.

Care of Phone,

The most scrupulous care should be
given the house telephone. House
keepers should remember that both
the transmitter and the receiver will
transmit dirt germs and odors, I'm
screw the tops of both and sterilize
thoroughly. Warm water with weak
carbolic acid, or the suds of carbolic
acid soap. What care the public
phones need can readily be imagined
