 Of the 200 girls who have complet- ed the course at Vashti, only six have failed to make good in the world.
 We are told there are 15,000 home less girls between these ages in our southern states. How inadequate is the church to care for all these! The The Methodist church is striving this year to add a much-needed building to the plant at Vashti The thank offerings of the week of prayer have been set aside for this purpose Won't you whose daughters are sheltered and living in plenty make some real effort to help on this work and during the first week in November bring a big offering and thank God that you have a home? e?-Contributed.

THE FOREIGN MISSION WORK
 OF A VASHTI GIRL.

She was only IT and not very large, but was engaged to work during va cation fo- wealthy family as up- stairs girl. Her salary was $10 per month-the first money she had really ever earned for herself and doubt less she was strongly tempted to spend it for dress. She had studied missions at Vashti, however, and was interested in helping others. Through native missionary she learned that a school was badly needed for poor girls in India, and she decided to con- tribute $5 and tell her Sunday school class about the need. The girls in her class took the matter up and raised $50. Not content with this she went to the pastor and asked him to put the matter. before the church The preacher declined, but said that she might address the congregation. As she had never made a public speech, she did not want to do this but as there was no other way, she decided to try.
 The pastor kindly introduced her, and she read the letter from the na- tive missionary, briefly stating the conditions. The pastor told the ush- CTS to pass the plates, and when the cash and subscriptions were counted and collected $500 was turned over to this girl. After adding another $5 from her own wages, she joyously sent the money to India.

At The Theatres
THE TANGO TRIO.

The Tango Trio, composed of Miss Rubell and Messrs. Curtis and Nor ton, played to two. full houses last night at the Arkway, and kept the audiences laughing from curtain to curtain. The blackface work of MT. Norton is among the best ever seen here, and his songs are catchy. A duet by MT. Curtis and Miss Rubell, entitled Hove Me While Lovin is Good" was one of the hits of the pro- gram. Another song that was well received was He's a Devil in his Own Home Town" MT. Curtis and Miss Rubell gave the audiences a sample of the hesitation waltz.
 The same company will appear again tonight. A full program of pictures will be run.

a picture that many will be thankful for. Perhaps the second most inter- esting item is the faces of the Servian and Montenegrin soldiers, though some may be more interested in sec ing the British men slinging a heavy field gun across a chasm while others will be most attracted by the German boys loading and firing their field guns-they are said to be among the most accurate gunners in the world.

 The game started off with a rush, Normal kicking to Hendrix. The ball was carried to within striking dis tance, but Hendrix fumbled and the ball went to the other side. Neither team scored until near the end of the second quarter, when Killian kicked a field goal. In the third period Har- cison of Hendrix circled the peda- gogues' end for touchdown. Goal

Then-and this will appeal most to the general spectator it gives many closeup pictures of the faces of the troopers and sailors. It lets us see what kind of fellow the French soldier, or sailor, is and to compare him personally with those men of the Kaiser's army who are at hand Then we see how the Belgian crack calvary officer can ride-a spec tacular, circus-like exhibtion-and how the Swiss calvary conducts itself is also made plain to us. Again, the typical Montenegrin soldier stands out before us and We get good idea of how his artillery works in battle
 The picture has many good views of battleships and shows something of the manufacture of the great thir- teen-inch guns for ships of war The photography, taking it as whole, is most commendable. The offering in- cludes scenes of aris, taken from a big dirigible floating over the city.
 The French army pictures take more of the film than do those of any other army, and seem to be very con- plete, showing many of the famous corps, the airmen, the artilley in ac- tion, bayonet charge, and riflery drill as on the field of battle. We see things that are actually happening now in war times abroad The French commanders are seen; but their names are not upon the screen.

In the little town of Thomasville, Ga, in the heart of the tobacco coun- try, stands home for friendless girls. The main building was once a great three-story brick tobacco fac tory. The other little frame buildings were cottages occupied by the work men.
 This great tobacco company failed and later through the efforts of dea- coness the whole plant was secured and converted into a home for girls, too old for orphanages and without means for support. This home offers education and training for girls be- tween IA and IS years of age. House keeping, cooking, sewing and embroid- ering are taught besides a literary

OUR MOUNTAIN MISSIONS.

at .OU c CLOCK.
 OUR MOUNTAIN MISSIONS.
 In all America there is not to be found people whose condition is more appealing in it's pathetic need or who are more deserving of our in terest and help than the Highlanders of the Appalachian mountains None are more responsive to the gospel, more appreciative of the school and at the same time more capable of in- tellectual and spiritual development For generations they have been locked up in the mountain coves, passed by and forgotten in the march of civili- zation. Their ignorance results from a combination of isolation, poverty and neglect.
 The Presbyterian church has 43 schools in the mountains with 129 teachers and about 3,250 pupils. At many places the schools are filled to overfowing, and boys and girls are being turned away because there is not room for them. In these noun tains thousands of boys and girls are growing up more destitute of the church and the school than any body of the Anglo-Saxon people on earth.
 Recent events have emphasized the importance of Christian work among the Mexicans. Fl Paso is undoubted- ly the strategic point for Mexican work in the United States. It is the principal gateway and port of entry for Mexicans, about 30,000 of whom cross and recross the international bridge over the Rio Grande each year The city contains about 11,000 chil- dren of school age, of which 7,5O0 are Mexicans. The results accomplished | by our Mexican mission at this place are little short of marvellous With no equipment "a room in a small adobe house being the only meeting Iplace-109 converts have been receiv- ed on profession of faith in Christ. How can we excuse ourselves if we adequately fail to house an dequip this great work? For lot and build ing $15,OOO is needed.
 Every department of church work ought to have, as it's ideal, efficiency Our women seem to realize the impor- tance of this, for, while we have done well in the past, we are doing better today and hope to do still better to- morrow. Our need today is greater enlistment and better trained work CTS. Realizing also that greater ac- tivity can be accomplished by organ ization We have the various depart ments of church organizations for our women and young people. These organizations are the Wom- ans Missionary Society, which meets on Monday afternoon of each week at the church, the Young Woman's Aux Hilary, which meets twice a month, on Wednesday afternoon at the same hour and place. the Sunbeam, for chil- dren, which meets every Sunday aft ernoon at the church, the Young Peo- ple's Union which meets every Sun day evening at 7:30 o'clock at the church, and the Junior Baptist Young Peoples Union, which meets at the same hour and place.
 The subject of study for the w. M. IS. Monday afternoon will be "The Shunammite" (the woman who was a hostess-II. Kings 4:8-37). Leader, Mrs. A. J. Meadors.
 The subject for the Junior B. Y. P. U. Sunday evening will be "A Gentle Converted" Leader, Fredie Vest moreland.

SPIKE PLACED ON TRACK
 TO WRECK BERLIN DINkY
Train Might Have Been Plunged Over Side of
 High Trestle.

RallrOaQ QeteCLlveS are at wOrk In Berlin endeavoring to place the blame for an attempt to wreck the Berlin dinky train made Thursday noon. As- sited by Deputy Sheriff James Clarke of Berlin, they arrested a sixteen years-old Italian boy yesterday after noon, but released him later when, through Constable Enrico Polo who acted as interpreter, he proved an alibi. A rigid investigation is being made and it is expected that the guilty party will be apprehended.
 News of the attempt is being kept very quiet owing to the fact that the detectives fear frightening the wreck CT away if he happens to be in this vicinity still. It has been learned from authentic sources, however. that as the 12:a9 train was speeding down to Berlin Thursday noon, the engine was nearly derailed and plunged off the trestle near Don- nelly's brick yard when it passed over a. railroad spike which had been driven between two rails. The en- gineer felt terrific jolt and brought his train to a quick stop after it had passed over the obstruction. He tried to remove the spike but it had been driven in so securely that the services of section men were required to take 1t out.
 report was made to the chief of the special police agents of the New Haven road and he detailed two de- tectives to the scene immediately. They found that the spike had been placed in the first joint of the south bound rails just above the big trestle and that if it had not been driven down quite as far as it was, the train would have been plunged into the brook which flows several feet below An added danger was the fact that the engine was running tender first as is the custom on trips to Berlin.
 The spot where the spike was found is within a few feet of the place where Frank Polumbo of New Britain was struck and instantly killed by dinky train last week Fri day.
 The foreign boy who was appre- hended yesterday has been in this country only few months. He had been lettering about the passenger station for the past several days and was sleeping on baggage truck when the officers found him.

This operation was repulsed. In the evening a column of German infantry moved in the di- rection of Wise and Tongres, but no new engagements occurred.
 "The towns near Saael pass are now entirely occupied by French troops which yesterday took the neighbor- ing plateau. The French artillery at tackled the German rear and it's fire greatly helped our infantry, which had a few wounded but none killed. We found heaps of abandoned equip ment, showing that the flight of the Germans was precipitate.

TEAM CAN HOLD OUT
 WITH PUBLIC'S HELP
Owner Scinslxi Hopes to Have Sport
 Loving Public Come to His Assistance.

Determined to keep the Now Brit ain franchise in this city if such a thing is possible Owner William D. Scinski has been making a thorough canvass of the city since yesterday in an endeavor to stimulate interest amongst the sport loving public and see if he cannot secure enough dona- tions to keep the team in this city for the rest of the season.
 Owner Scinski was in consultation with Mayor George A. Quigley for over an hour yesterday and the out come of the meeting was that his honor expressed the desire to retain the franchise in this city and told the owner that he was willing to help him in any way he could.
 The suggestion that is to be made is that 100 or 150 sporting men, busi- ness men and fans meet Tuesday night and talk the matter over. 1t is then hoped that each one will con- tribute SIC or $15 and thus raise enough money to keep the team here another season. Under these condi- tions Owner Scinski would be able to meet his debts and probably those who helped him out financially this year would be presented with season passes another season.
