Sometimes a conmunit. S electric
lighting system proves deficient pc
cause the lamps are OF a poor quar-
ity, or the wiring system is lmper-
feet. These ills are easily remedleu;
but when the power house is at fault,
being inadequate or d~isarranged, then
the situation is serious indeed. So,
likewise. some of the shortcomings
Of the church are superficial and local,
and wanting only wit and application
to remedy them. But when the fault
is in the prayer life Of the members
then it is serious indeed. For the
prayer meeting and the prayer closet
are the powerhouSe of the church. She
may get along without a steeple or
upholstered peWS or chandeliers or q
pipe organ; but a church simply can
not prosper without a warm, vital,
constant life OF prayer, The only real
power Of Christianity is spiritual pow
er.
Nothing will better a prayer meet
ing like more prayer and simpler.
When members pray, the organization
will prosper.
Some Endeavors have not Vet dis
covered the difference between a de-
batting society or a literary lyceuIn
and a prayer meeting.
Personality is always power. The
most vital prayer meetings are those
| which are most concrete and intimate
! and individual. Life speaking to life
begetS life. When the sincere soul
cries out, in testimony or in prayer,
then other souls are enkindeled. Ev-
cry devotional gathering OF Christians
should cultivate this personal quality,
rather than mere spright1iness or va
riety.
There cannot be dead meetings
where there are live Christians.
Monotony has not merit. Ruts are
not routes. Simply because & prayer
meeting has been conducted in q Ger,
tain fashion in the past is no good rea-
son why it should be continued ind f.
nitely in h same way The very in
fOr1nality and unconventionality Of
the Billy Sunday tabernacle meetings
is one real element of power. The
more human, elastic and responsive a
prayer meeting is, the greater its eff
ficiency.
Once upon q time there was a re
ligious service so informal as to be
boisterous; and beholders accused the
participants of too much wine. That
unconventional meeting was Pente-
cost, the birthplace of the Christian
church. Let no ma say that stale
and Etereotyped assemblies are the
only truly religious gathering. "Where
the spirit of the Lord is, there is lib
erty."
Purpose as we'll as plety should
; mark a prayer meeting. The reason
some meetings hit nothing is tina
they are aimed at it. A definite OBJ
: %jective is needed by every gatherins
! OF christians: too many meetings hav,
q subject, but no object.
Stress the word meeting TIL,
weekly assembly is a meeting q
Christian with Christian, and Of al
: With Christ. If this fellowship. hu
mar and divine, is not provided. the,
the occasion IS q mere gathering. bu

NO LEAGUE BALL
Meeting Announced to BE Held at
Sioux Falls Failed to Materialize.

Sioux Falls, March 30.-The meet
ing called TO be held in this city for
the purpose of perfecting the Mid
West Baseball league failed to ma
terialize. In fact, word was received
late Saturday afternoon that Mitchell
and Aberdeen would not be repre-
scented and other cities in the state
which were expected to participate in
the meeting did not send a repre-
sentative.
The facts are that there was W.
the right jingle to the proposed
league. Early in the year baseball
enthusiasts of several cities, among
them Sioux Falls, Aberdeen, Mitchell,
Watertown, began discussing the
baseball situation for the season of
1915. Things were running along
smoothly when two outside baseball
promoters precipitated themselves in
to the field and announced that they
would take UP the matter and see to
IL that a league to be called the Mid
West league was organized. One
wanted the franchise at WATERFOWL
and the other at Sioux Falls. Local
parties who had started the move
rlent stepped aside to give the out
side promoters a clear field. The
latter called two meetings at which
no one attended. and finally they
dropped out entirely and left things
in a chaotic state. Sioux Falls fans
had anticipated just such an ending
of the affair and had gone ahead with
plans for an independent ball team,
and hence this city Is assured of a
fast team. Just what action will be
taken in the other cities of the state
has not been made public, but it is
expected that there will be a number
of independent semiprofessional bal
teams organized as in the past.
