Worship has always been re-
garded as the prime purpose of
the Sabbath assembling, the
preaching of the Gospel ranks
next and closely to the first OBJ
ject and the fellowship of Gods
people is not to be forgotten.
Songs of praise to God pre-
dominate in worship and our
singers are becoming alive to the
importance of the part they take
in the service of the Sanctuary.
The beauty, majesty and power
of Mendelsohn's Elijah as given
by Francis Backe on Sunday
morning was probably unexcell-
ed in any church anywhere.
The writer appreciates the
thoughtful kindness of his PEG.
pie in granting him a vacation of
three weeks in what will prob
ably be the heated season.
Countless favors have been shown
him since his coming here by the
people of Meade for which he
would not be deemed migrate
full.
During the remainder of July
correspondence will reach me at
Neodesha, Kansas in care of Mr..
Carl Aldrich.
God be with you till we meet
again.

The death of Mrs. Ralph Pond oc-
Cured suddenly in Lansing Wednes-

Union and from 80 foreign countries
are entered at Michigan. Each four
years practically the entire student
body changes. Alumni are in every
country and their influence is indeed
worldwide.
The influence of the "Y" is con-
tinual and endless. A procession of
more than 1000 students march
through Michigan each year. They
are in that time of life most sus-
ceptible to the noble influence of high
ideals. The foundations of their char
acters are being laid. Their habits
of living are being made permanent.
They march on out into the world
and become centers of influence
they become teachers, doctors, law
yers, engineers and judges. Some go
out into public life. Many who have
left the university in recent years
are now heads of industrial rms en-
ploying men by the thousands. How
important it is that no influence be
overlooked which may make these
students better men at that time
when they are so easily led rightly
and fitted to do more than their share
in this better growing world.
Very sincerely,

S|LOS F|LLAD At
THE ELL|S.RANNY
FARM PAST WEEK

The Ellis-Ranney dairy farm has
been the scene of strenuous business
activity during the past week in the
work of filling the silos.
More than twenty men have been
on the job and it has required five or
six teams to haul in the corn from
the fields to the macrine.
There are four silos on the big
farm, one with a capacity of $50 tons
and three of about 100 tons each.
The corn is fed directly into the ma
chine from the loads as they are
brought from the field. The clippings,
stalks, cobs, corn and all are carried
into the top of the silo, where four
men are continually tramping them
down int a solid mixture. There were
sixty-fve acres of corn grown this
season, all of which went into the silos
excepting few acres left for husking.
The filling of the last silo was com
pleted Tuesday and the engine and
machine which grinds the stalks into
shreds was taken to the Bedding farm
where the large silo there will be fill
ed.
1t may be interesting to know that
the Ellis-Ranney dairy farm has a
holding of 800 acres of land, five hun
dred acres of it is all in body on
which the buildings are located and

men who have received employment
through the "Y" and have been in
fuenced and helped to become clean,

just closed, over 1900 jobs were Sc
cured by the "Y" for students. The
value of these jobs in dollars and
cents is over $125,000. Without this

Much Damage by Frost

Irving Hall was in the city Satur-
day. He recently returned from Hay
marsh, Missaukee county, where he
went with Ed. Dorr by the automobile
route. He says that much damage
was done to the northern farmers by
the severe frosts which visited that
region a few weeks ago, striking the
growing crops just at time when it
would damage them most.
The destruction was quite general
and the farmers who are not fore
handed will feel the loss keenly.

1t Is figured out that the eonsolida-

IN the way of expenditures for Dau-

The per capita wage per day for
maintenance in the Eastern peniten-
tiary, where the Dauphin county con
victs are sent. was 19 cents in 1914.
while it WAS 80 cents in the Western
penitentiary. In 1914 Dauphin county
committed AZ prisoners to the Eastern
penitentiary and these AZ cost the
county at the rate of 19 cents per dav.
The county paid for a year $2,912. 10.
These same prisoners for a year, under

These figures apply only to those

them would be the same.
