NOTES.

Company G has taken the measure
Of every team that has opposed it
this season, and this is certainly a
most creditable record.
Maggart played his first game Fri
day evening, and did excellent work.
The visitors were gentlemanly
lot of young men, and will be vel:
coined in Princeton at any time.
Smith for the locals certainly dis
played phenomenal form in the bas-
ket throwing. He was responsible
for IL of the points credited to
Princeton.
The high school team will clash
with Mora tomorrow evening This
will be the second game in the con-
test for the championship of the 10th
district, and it is hoped that the
local quint will capture the long end
of the score.
1t is reported that the G. G..
team of st. Cloud cannot yet compre-
bend that Princeton played superior
basket ball in the contest of Friday
evening. Manager Hoffiander expects
to schedule another game with this
team, and again stage the contest at
the Princeton armory. If these
teams meet again the game will be
worth travelling several miles to wit

ber of deaths due to typhoid fever in
1918 was 1923. The mortality rate
from this disease among the colored
population is more than twice as great
as for the whites.
Although the death rates for most
causes are higher in urban than in
rural communities. the typhoid rate
in 1913 was about 20 per cent. higher
in places of less than 10000 than
in cities of 10000 and over. which
fact may reasonably be construed as
further indictment against the open

the poetic but insanitary "moss-cov-

The great progress which has been
made in the handling of typhoid cases
is evidenced by the marked decrease
in the mortality from this disease. And
OF equal potency perhaps has been
the improvement in preventive meth
ods--the betterment of water-supply
and sewergae systems, the campaign
against the fly. and other sanitary
precautions. AT any rate. Americans
can congratulate themselves that in

MUST TREAT ALL
MEN AS BROTHERS
Rev. lanes |. Gardiner Reads
Replies He Received on How
Church Can Be More Sue
CeSSfuI Reaching Outsiders.

"How May the Church Be More
Successful In Reaching Menu" was
discussed last night at the st. Paul's
Methodist Memorial Episcopal church
by the pastor, DR.. James L. Gardiner
The question was the last in a series
that have been considered during the
past five Sunday evenings. The ser
mons have been based on the replies
received from men TO whom questions
were asked concerning Men and
Modern Churches"
In discussing the question last night
DR.. Gardiner said: Il received
number Of suggestions as to how we
might be more successful in reaching
men. A number OF men who wrote
me gave 1t as their opinion that one
OF the most effective methods is that
Of personal effort. The problem said
one man is to get men who are in
side the church TO go out after other
men and bring them into the church.
Men outside can be reached If men in
side will go after them one by one.
Every saved man should endeavor to
bring some unsaved man to Christ
Others who wrote suggested that
the church would be more effective
If members would manifest the spirit
Of brOtherliness. One man wrote me
thus: IF the church would reach
men outside the church it must treat
them as brothers. l do not think you
can get man to come to church by
calling him low down ungrateful
wretch, but you can reach him by
treating him as a brother
lone man thought that there
should be more of the spirit of unity
among the churches. You have got TO
get churches out OF competition with
each other and get them with their
backs against the same wall fighting
for a common cause. The churches
should not endeavor to make a man a
Methodist or Baptist or a Presbyaeri-
an but a Christian.
MANY men felt that nothing will
bring men 10 church like the plain
preaching of the gospels of Jesus
Christ. One man said: Preach the
eternal truths so powerfully and con-
stantly that all congregations shall
know the awfulness of living and dy-
ing in open rebellion against God
Another said: You can have all the
brOtherhoods, sisterhoods and all the
rest Of the hoods" you want, but the
great need OF men outside the church
is the Bread of Life

Farmers Sales Day

Gem State Rural.-Moscow is
to have her first monthly sales day,
to be conducted after the plan which
has been, for years, so successful in
Caldwell. This decision was brought
about by the action of the Moscow
Chamber of Commerce, which had
previously sent Mr.. George SEWERS
as it's representative to Caldwell to
investigate the sales day as establish
ed in the latter city. The plan had
earlier been personally investigated
by M. E. Lewis, chairman of the
agricultural committee of the Mos
COW Commercial body, and had been
strongly recommended by him.
At the MEETINGS which adopted
the Caldwell plan, Dean Iddings of
the Agriculture College was the
principal speaker, and enthusiastic
ally endorsed the movement.
Since the Gem State Rural's home
city has made such a success with
these farmers market day sales,
there does not appear to be any
reason why other communities
should not, likewise, succeed with
them. The main essentials are the
proper conveniences for the farmers
and their families, cooperation on
the part of the business men of the
city, and square dealing by the
auctioneers who conduct the sales
and handle the details.
Caldwell has been particularly
fortunate in these particulars, and
as a result has established one Of the
most efficient farmers monthly sales
days to be found anywhere. Rural
people come by hundreds and some.
times by the thousands, from all OF
the surrounding country, and even
from more remote communities, tc
| attend and to participate in buying
or selling. or in both.
1t affords a fine opportunity fol
farmers to get together, and tt
mingle with each other, as we'll al
to take advantage of the opportun
ity to buy or sell, as they may wish
1t is also advantageous to the bust
: ness and professional people of thu
city, and they appreciate the oppor
tunities thus offered them. as wei
\ as the fact that primarily, the far
mers are being served and benefited
to a still greater extent.
And so the Farmers Sales Day i
\ capable of large usefulness whereve
\ it is established and maintained OF
the right basis.
