ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
THE ZION BAPTIST CHURCH.
oath Ave. and Ogden ST.


The inclement weather naturally
reduced the attendance last week,
but in spite of it two splendid serv-
ices were enjoyed. DIR. George Man
ey, state missionary for Washington,
was our visitor and preached an in
structive and enjoyable sermon.
In the evening DR.. John Adams, A,
NJ. E. pastor at Pueblo, was present
and gave a very helpful message.
The congregation greatly enjoyed the
visits of these good men and hopes
that each will return.
The State Federation of Women's
Clubs met at the church this week.
A large number of the ladies were in
attendance and a splendid meeting
was enjoyed. The work of this or
ganization showed progress along all
lines and occasioned much in the way
of inspiration to all race lovers who
were in attendance.
The week of June Goth to 9th will
witness the meeting of the Western
Baptist Association at Pueblo. All
the Baptist churches of the state will
send messengers to the meeting. We
are expecting a record gathering both
in attendance and missionary offer
ings. An unusually helpful pro-
gramme has been prepared and 1t is
certain that those who attend will
find the meeting very much worth
while.

 "Galicia has many of the worlds most famous salt mines. Those at Wieliczka have been worked for near ly seven centuries, at one time being a principal source of revenue for the Polish kings.

 Austria has never treated her Poles as the Russians and the Prussians have treated theirs. The Poles of Austria are as free to sing their na- tional songs as the people of our own South are free to sing Dixie. They are as much at liberty to glorify their past and to speak their native tongue as though they were free and indepen- dent Except that they must pay their taxes to Austria and serve in Austria's army they are practically l self-governing.
 "As western Galicia is the strong. hold of the Austrian Pole. so eastern Galicia is the main dwelling-place of the Ruthenian. The two races never get along very well together. The ] peasant population of Austrian Poland eke out a hard existence In many parts of the country the peasant lives in a log hut covered with straw; he breakfasts, dimes, and makes his sup per of porridge, washing it down with bad brandy; and in general lives a life of want and empty of pleasures The i peasants who farm for the nobles re ceive no money in payment, but on. ly share of the crop, often as low as one-twelfth, a wage of slow starva tion"

COUP DEFEAT WAS
 PLANNED BY JAPAN

TOXIC June 26.-If Chin ahad de- cliped to meet the demands of the recent ultimatum by Japan, the Jap anese program would have been to capture Picking, which would have been ga matter before breakfast" and to have effected a military occupation of other centers of political pOwe. and wealth, according to semlofficial newspapers.
 The Japan Times a journal printed in English but controlled by represen. tative and influential Japanese, which s usually believe dto have good au- thority for its utterances, undertook to outline the course Japan would taKe, even before the diplomatic cri- sis with Ih ma had been passed.
 The article made it clear that the independent" action which Japan in her ultimatum. said she would take if China was obdurate, would not nee essarily be war. It would be better styled, perhaps, a military and naval occupation of China pending accep tance of the Japanese demands. Ney ertheless, it would be effectively aU execution of the demands by force Of arms.
 The general stan had estimated the military force of China at 47 divisions

including 100000 troops of modern training and l5O,OOO men of the old school. However, as these troops were scattered all over the Chinese empire, their mobilization and concen- tration would be difficult
 Japans military base wouldd be es. tablished at Tientsin. A fundamental necessity being the control of the principal means of communication, the Tientsin-Pukow and Peking-Muk- den railroads would have to be cap tured Their occupation would firmly establish a Japanese foothold in Chi na. The troops stationed at Tsingtau would be able to occupy Tsinanfu in a minute" The northern part of the Tientsin-Pukow railway. thatis, the line between Tientsin and Tsinan, could easily be occupied, and with Tientsin the base of operations, Jap anese soldiers Would soon be seen marching on Peking In Picking there was stationed one company of infan- try. while in Tientsin were two com pan e. with machine guns. The sol diers in Picking would act as escort for Minister Hiok to Tientsin where he would embark cn a warship and proceed to Japan.
 The account declared that in she south moves would have to be made Jcintly by army and navy, and then the better part of :hna would be r"- der Japanese away. Special care UUUid be taken to protect Japanese IsGi other foreign residents.
 The journal continued:
 When the centers of China are guarded by a garrison, the soldiers will be disbanded. Then all places will be put under the control of our army; peace and order are to be maintained by our military administra tion. If the Chinese army offars no resistance, things will be carried out in peace; but when they show any re- sistance our soldiers will be obliged to fire upon them. And 1t is to be feared that engagements will take place between the Chinese and Jap anese troops here and there, as the land of China is so extensive that peace cannot be established at mo- ments notice"
 In Manchuria, the program contin- ues, the two divisions under Lieuten- ant-Generals Hungo and Ando would be concentrated in Mukden and mar shalled against the 17th, 18th and goth divisions of the Chinese army. The two Chinese generals, Chan Tso-lin and Feng Lin-ko, who command these divisions, would soon surrender when informed of the real situation. The
 northern part of the Peking-Mukden
 railway would be captured by Japa
 nese troops. Great forces would then be landed at some points in the prov ince of Chihli; Pekin gwould be seized immediately. Indeed, the fall of Pc
 king, as stated, would be matter

Many institutions have their day

of the living God. Her struggle has

history. Nevertheless she has survived
the storms. There have been changes

What about the good people who do

men will reap final reward. ! also
believe any good man outside of the
church will not only be a better but
will also be more useful man, by
working with the organized force for
good, rather than serving alone. "In

there is influence to encourage the

The question arises. Where does this

Ia answering this question II must
not be forgotten that the roots of any
tree. especially the elm tree, extend
long distance. thus encrUaching upon
the lawn soils adjacent, the sidewalks
and the streets.
Ii must also be remembered that
there are many subterranean springs

ON farms.
Notwithstanding these explanations

1t illustrates the fact that there il
