EVERETT KEMP
PLEASES MANY
STORY OF -sevENoAks- WAS
GIVEN IN DRAMATIC WAY
AT u. N. c. a.
Large Audience MAJ Much Impressed
By Ability Of Reader TO Bring
Forth the Various Characters

Everett Kemp held an enthusiastic
audience at the Young Mems Christ
ian Association for more than an hour
and a half last evening. He gave the
story of ~Seycnoaks and made the char
acters live before the minds OF those
present Jim Fenton. with his homely
wit and keenness. his insight INTO
human nature. and his manlines was
the fayorite among the characters pre-
sented. n whenever his name and
characteristic expression was given, a.
brought a laugh. t
The story was divided into i've
parts. In the first part. Jim discovers
Paul Benedick. an old friend of his.
who has been regarded as dead. in the
town almshouse and finds that he has
Just enough memory 60 enable him TO
recognize his oldtime friend. Fenton
plans for his escape. In the second
part, Jim m with a wagon al night
and takes Benedick out. having TO tear
an iron door from its hinges. to effect
the release. He takes his friend TO
his place In the woods and there
nurses him back to health and
strength by the aid OF Mike Conlin. a
neighbor. A scene in which Fenton
asks Benedick's son. Harry. to pray.
after he has given no hope for his
recovery brought tears TO the eyes OF
the audience. In the third part Jim
makes a trip TO Sevenoaks and per
suades Miss keZiah Butterworth to
make clothes for the two invalids and
at the same time declares his love for
her. There was a dramatic incident In
Jim's farewell. as he was going back
TO his home In the woods, "Bood bye.
but while | am gone. don't you kick n
stone in the road or scare a bird in a
tree, for IL may be the heart which
Jim leaves behind"
Dramatic Scene.
One of the most dramatic scene- in
the evening. was given during the trial
OF the case of Benedick VS.. Belcher. in
which Benedick is making a fight for
the possession OF his patents. which
Robert Belcher. The Boss Of Seven
oaks had stolen under a forged as
signment. The services of A hand
writing eXpert were brought into play
and he threw the signatures on a large
screen in the court room. at once
showing up the line of tracing under
h signature.
The closing scene. the marriage of
Jim and Miss Butterworth, was full of
human interest. Kemp made one of
the best impressions of several sea-
sons. His power OF making his char
acters live and his fine acting in living
out their different characteristics. even
to a loose scalp of the attorney for the
defense In the trial scene, was pleas.
lnsly noted. His evening is the best
OF the Associations course so far.

HOW TO DRESS
CHILDREN'S HAIR
Hot Irons Should Never Be Used
Nor Little Heads Be Made
Uncomfortable In a Foolish
and Harmful Effort to Achieve
Waves or Curls.

- &c mother should apply hot
curling irons to a child's
hair. The "doing up'' proc
ess at night often causes
real torture to little heads that cannot
lie comfortably on the lumpy done
up" knobs that promise tomorrow's
curls. If the little girls hair is straight
the best way to arrange 1t tidily for
school is to part it at n side and tie
the topknot at the opposite side of the
head with a ribbon
When the locks have grown long
enough to reach the shoulders two
braids may be made. the hair being
parted evenly from forehead to nape
of neck. The short braids should be
turned pack and fastened firmly with
bits OF baby r~ibbon-never use elias
tics on a child's hair or the tender
ends will split and the healthy growth
Of the hail be interfered with-and over
the stubby little braids tie big bows of
crisp ribbon. This arrangement of twin
bows is very becoming to a bright
childish face, and the neatly braided
and tied hair will remain in ~presenta-
Bile condition all day long.
If the child's hair Is curly and falls
about her face and ON her shoulders In
soft waves and lovely curls the braid
ing process. which takes time. is I'M
necessary. In fact. curly hair should
not be braided at all, since braiding
will tend to destroy the curl in the
hair. Part the locks far over at one
side of the head and draw the hair
softly and loosely across the top,
fastening il at the opposite side over
the ear with one of the small shell
pins. The ends of the drawn across
lock win form a loose curl. hanging a
little shorter than the other curls
which rest on the shoulders.
Over the shell pin. If desired, may be
tied a ribbon bow. Since the. constant
tying and nntying of the hair bow soon
sourceful mother has made a little
band of ribbon which snap fastens
around the pinned back hair. A crisp
bow is sewed firmly to the ribbon
band. and there Is no necessity for
untying the bow when the hair is ar
ranged.
When the hair reaches below the
shoulders and the girl has attained the
dignity of ten or eleven years another
couture Is ready for her. The front
hair is softly parted in the middle and
drawn back in loose waves to the
crown where a shell pin holds 1t; then
all the ends, curly or straight, are
caught together just below the shout

took place. The NUM-
Israelites went out to meet them In bat
tie and were defeated. In their chagrin
they looked to God. just as all the ma
lions of Europe today are doing.
Indeed, the I~sraelites had more
ground for attempting to bring God
into the war, for invoking the assist
ance of religious symbols, etc, than
have the warning kingdoms of today;
for God had declared that they were
His special people, and that He would
protect them as long as they would
be loyal to Him. On the other hand,
the Kingdoms of this world have
no such Divine promise, have no
ground for such expectations of Di-
vine aid. They are falsely styling
themselves Christian kingdoms
"Christendom"; whereas they have mel
Their part nor lot with the Lord. He
recognizes no nations except Natural
Israel of the past and Spiritual Israel
of the present. Peter 30.
A Present Day Parallel.
The Israelites doubtless had read
how the Ark of the Lord went before
them in the Wilderness journey, how
it was III the midst of the Jordan
when the people crossed dry-shod, and
how it was in the procession that
marched around Jericho when the
walls fell. So they determined to bring
the Ark and put 1t into the battle.
Their reasoning apparently was that
God would not permit the Ark of the
Covenant to be injured or captured;
and that hence the victory would be
bound to come to Israel.
The people forgot that they had been
living in violation of their Covenant
with God; and that that Covenant call
ed for punishment upon them at the
hand of their enemies. They forgot
that the two priests were thieves and
robbers, garbed as the priests of God;
that they were immoral, impure, pos
ing as the representatives of the Di'
vine Holiness.
Today, as in the days of Ellis sons,
the people shout as they couple the
Cause of God with their national prof.
ects. Again they forget that Gods
Cause Is under Divine direction, and
will prosper best by the permission Of
a great defeat to all these systems Of
men, preparing incidentally for the es-
adjustment of Messiah's Kingdom, aft
er the Armageddon Of the Bible shall
have humbled the world and made
them ready to accept the new King
Emmanuel and His Kingdom.
There was a great slaughter and a
scattering of the Israelites. Ellis two
sons were slain. The Ark of God was
captured. A swift runner brought the
sad intelligence to Shiloh. where Eli
as Judge sat upon his high seat in the
gate, fearfulIy remembering the twen-
ty-year-before prediction Of disaster.
The runner reported to Eli that the
battle had gone against the Israelites,
that his two sons were slain and that
the Ark of the Lord had been captur-
ed by the Philistines.
When Eli learned that his precious
treasure, for which he was guardian
