SHOP MEETING AT
 INTERNATIONAL SILVER co.
Rev. G. H. Strouse on Topic. Jesus a
 Man of Purpose.

The Y M C. A. shop meeting on Tuesday was held at the International Silver company at noon Rev George H. Strouse spoke on the topic, Jesus as a Man of Purpose, and, in part, said;
 Men, the picture 1 want to give you today is that of Jesus as a man of purpose When the time was come that he should be received up, he steadfast- ly set his face to go to Jerusalem
 God is never in a hurry. He acts with marvellous certainty and precis- ion. With infinite wisdom and fore sight at his dispostaI he has planned everything which is working out beau- tifully and in harmony with the di- vine purpose. When the hour was ripe then Jesus stepped on the path way that led up to Jerusalem. There was neither delay nor hurry. Why did he wait so long? A scholar was needed to solve the knotty problems of the day A man of courage was needed to lift up his voice against greed and injustice. A man of lofty ideal and purpose was needed to blaze the way through ignorance and super stition and lead men on to the eternal hills of God. Jesus was the man of the hour, and when the dial on the clock of heaven signified that the hour was ripe, then Jesus set his face to go to Jerusalem,
 As a Man of Purpose.
 Jesus as a man of purpose. A man doesn't get very far in this world if he isn't 8. man of purpose There is an Old Testament picture of Jesus given us by Isaiah Behold, | have set my face like a flint and l know that 1 shall not be ashamed" Meaning just as the flint rock resists the fury of the elements and these break upon it with out moving or shaking it, so the awful storm of Calvary would break upon 1I~f hi in his holy purpose. In that proces- sion Jesus went first, and according to Mark the disciples followed at d dis tance amazed. And although we may not always understand if we keep fol- lowing him we shall reach home at last.
 The Greaest Miracle.
 Jesus the greatest miracle of his tory. Christ was d wonder 1 am nev- CT puzzled over the miracle in the New Testament I'd rather be puzzled if Jesus and never doing anything above Such an extraordinary character as Jasus and never doing anything above the ordinary. Jesus was the greatest miracle. And all he did was just in harmony with all he was. I once saw the great rock. Gibraltar, We'll, it would be just as easy to batter down Gibraltar with a, shot gun as it would be to destroy Christs influence and power by our little weak criticisms. We criticise and throw stones, but Christ marches on triumphantIy to be the worlds King.
 What is it to be a Christian? To fol- low Christ. Go forward with holy purpose to do the right Don't stop be- cause there is an obstacle in the way Keep on in the path of duty The one distinguishing characteristic of a Chris tian is loyalty to Jesus. Christ is call ing for men today. Calling you. men. Will you follow Following Jesus here means we shall follow him through the courts of heaven

EXAMINATION OF
BROWNS BOOKS
SOON COMPLETE
Hawthorne Association May Be
Only One to Have Sub
stantial Losses.

Final repurey--of- of-tfre examinations
OF the books of four building and
loan associations with which the
missing George Brown, jr.. was con-
nected will be made this week, il is
expected. This statement was made
today by Deputy Commissioner of
Banking and Insurance Thomas K.
Johnston.
Partial reports already received at
Deputy Johnston's Office in Trenton
show that Brown was crooked as
expressed by the deputy commits
sioner. This statement is believed TO
have been based on reports from
Bank Examiners McNish and Pryor.
who have in charge the books of the
Hawthorne ard Ninth Ward Building
and Loan Association.
1t was limited today that the books
of all the financial institutions with
which Brown was connected, with
tie exception of the Hawthorne
Building and Loan, VIII be found to
be in fairly good condition. The books
of the Hawthorne association are said
to show manipulations and discrep-
ancies. Bank Examiners McNish and
Pryor refused today TO discuss their
finding.
The value of the real estate and
personal property IN Brown name
and which was seized this week by
attaches of Sheriff John F. Mona
hans office on writ of attachment
sworn out by the Hawthorne Build
ing and Loan Association is $4,000,
according TO unofficial appraisement
made by the sheriff's men.
This does not mean that Brown
owns the $62 900 worth of lands and
stocks entirely, for it is known that
in some of the properties he has only
an equity. What his equity will
amount to is not known at this time.
The largest single item in the list
of property seized by the sheriff is
the land and three-sIory brick fac
tory building at 154-156 Wright street,
where the factory of H J. Hankin
son. Inc. is located This is ap-
praised at $4,000. Brown also owns
twenty shares of stock of the Han
kinson concern. valued at $1,000.
