CHILDREN ATTEND
M.E.CHURCH SOUTH
Excellent Sermon Preached
By Pastor With Young
sters AS Illustration.

Last night was chiIdrens night at
the eVaugeustic services now gong on
at the Methodist Episcopal church,
South.
A large number of children were
present and occupied front seats
while Rev. Canter preached to the
older people and used the children
as an Illustration.
Having chosen Isaiah 11:6, "A Little
Child Shall Lead Them" as his text,
Rev. Canter sand in part:
Isaiah, in fine iIgure OF speech,
utters his vision OF peace, founded On
the respect for the rights OF the weak,
by the strong.
las the rudder, though small, di-
reefs the course of the greatest ship,
so the small things often have most
influence on human life.
Gods ideal was shown to be- not
the strong. ambitious man, but the
helpless, siniess, trusting child-such
one pulls hardest upon the heart
strings Of the good father.
The chl!dS power is shown in
many home when the whole order
OF domestic Life is regulated to pro-
mote the growth and welfare of the
nttte ones. The mother, planning ner
engagements so that she may have q
lwHigat hour for the romp, the lesson
and the prayer
we have seen a vain, shallow wo-
man grow serious and strong under
the strong call that comes with
motherhood. and the man who was
careless, led to Christ when his little
girl found her Savior and said, Come,
Papa
In the larger sense we are being
led as We find out that human lives
crushed in crowded tenements, are
more valuable than gold, and as we
protect children from toll, and give
chem school time and playtime. we
will know some day the larger les
son, lesson OF q finer brotherhood, and
"A more rational relation.
These chIiuren are OF the kingdom
now. May we bring them up therein
and be thus led into happy and pros
porous Christian experience.
viii not these little ones show a
good example by accepting Christ to-
night? Will not each teacher bring
the unsaved of the class before their
affairs before the meetings close-at
the decision days service in the
school on Easter murning?"
No service this afternoon or even
ing, but services will continue each
day and evening next week.
Rev. f. S. Poiiitt, p. E., of Fairmont
district, and Rev. L. E. Oldaker. one
of the city pastors. were present and
gave interest and encouragement to
the service.

August / is the day when the liberty
Of the Swiss cantons IL celebrated. At
Geneva one of the favorite forms of
celebration ia to throw colored lights
ON the great fountain OF set d'eau's
} that rises out of the lake. Every color
OF the rainbow plays over the towers
ing column of white spray, washing II
in this shining rainbow dress. At
night the water seems to float in the
air like a many-colored banner This
Jet d'eau or jet of water is acknowl-
edged to be the highest fountain in
the world. At the place where the
waters OF Lake, Geneva narrow into
the harbor, ready to flow into the River
Rhone, a small breakwater has been
built Beside II q great water main
with q nozzle six inches In diameter
10 suspended. with the end turned in
such q way as to throw the water high
in the air. This. IL done by what 10
termed gravity pressure" and the
mighty current seems trying to rise
as high as the great storage reservoir
where It has It's source, in the hills
east OF Geneva.
Tourists and toWnsfolk walkiout on
the breakwater to stand beside the
fountain and wonder at It's mighty
roar and it's. great column Of water.
When the wind takes the top of the
fountain the spray is scattered in some
new direction, so that q visit to the
fountain, perhaps in small boat. may

the lake with q steady pattering
sound.
