GIVES LECTURE ON
"THECOM|NG MAN"
REV. w. n. HEPPE ADDRESSES
BIG AUDIENCE At WILLARD
STREET CHURCH..

THE Coming Man" is marked by
originality, efficiency and unsullied
manhood" said Rev. w. H. Hoppe Of
Burlington in his lecture at the Will
lard Street M. E. church Tuesday
evening The talk was preceded by
two vocal solos by Miss Bertha Worm
houdt which were very pleasing to
the audience as evidenced by the gen
erous applause which called her back
after the first number to give lula
by which was even better liked than
the first selection. Rev. E. J. Shook
introduced the Rev. Mr.. Hoppe, say.
ing that the lecturer had been loaned
by Iowa to the states of Oregon and
Kansas and had once again returned
to Iowa. The speaker then said that it
was not as stranger that he returned
to the Willard Street church, having
been pastor there some years ago.
He soon launched into his lecture
on ''The Coming Man" and gave his
idea Of the man of the hour. He said
nality. newness and brightness; abil-
fty to do something out of the ordin
airy, to think of something not thought
of by other men, to act as man after
his own mind and not like man
struck off with die like many other
men. He said that fads must not be
confused with originality, and gave as
a terse. concise and to the point def
milton of fads, 'organized queerness.'
Rev. Hoppe said that originality must
be lasting, founded upon rock and not
the idle whims Of an idle people to be
tossed away upon the dust heap of the
ages when these fads grow tiresome
and old.
"The Coming Man" must be ef1lci
ent. The times demand a quick NOV
ing, time conserving, get-there sort OF
fellow, said the speaker. AS an illus
tration of the difference In the ages
he told of the clocks Of the different
times He told Of the tall grandfath-
er's clock of the stairs with its long
pendulum, ticking off with dignif1ed
measure take time, take time. take
time" Of the more hurried pulse Of
the clocks with the shorter pendu-
lums later on, hurry up, hurry up,
hurry up and finally the small clock
Of today ticking off the precious sec
onds with stacatto emphasis, get
there, get there, get there"
The third requisite for man OF
this type to stand out from his fell
lows was said to be unsullied man
hood. He said that man should al
ways live a clean life and be prepared
for whatever may come when oppor-
tupnity knocks at his door. The audi
ence was very gooH and was we'll

Make PLEA FOR
NEW CREAM LAW
SOUTH DAKOTA EXPERT TELLS
BUTTER MAKERS THAT UNI
FORMlTY IS NEEDED,

Mason City. March 10.-The pas.
sage of uniform laws in central west.
ern states to stop traffic in poor cream
was urged by Professor G. Larson of
the South Dakota state college, in an
address before the National Creamery
Butter Makers association here to-
day. Speaking for his own state, he
said the greatest need of the dairy in
dustry there was a better quality Of
cream. The keen demand for the bet
ter grades in the larger cities of the
adjoining states, compelled loca!
creameries to lose business or else use
lower qualities. he said.
Professor Larson declared there
ought to be federal law forbidding
interstate traffic in cream below GER
tain standard. 1.-THE consumers of
dairy products should demand, for
their own protection, a rigid system of
cream Inspection" he said. "The
manufacturers would welcome such a
system. for it is difficu for them to
cope with the present situation"
Professor Larson said the opportu.
mites for the dairy business we're
greater now than ever before in the
history of the middle west. What is
needed more than anything else is
more dairymen and more cows. Great.
er production will help to solve the
quality question"

A GIANT At HIS GREATEST
HEIGHT


The international Sunday School Les
son for March ID is, "SauI Gains His
kinqdom."-I Sam. Oh. I.
(By William T. Ellis).
The present Sunday school Lesson is
a war story that gains new interest
when read along side OF the latest
cablegrams.
1t is a story of a great outrage,
great strategem, a great battle and
great hero. Like the recent dispatches
from Suez and Sinai, it depends upon
an understanding of the local geog-
raphy for an intelligent interest. Most
of the children of Israel, it will be re-
membered, lived between the Medlter-
ranean on the west and the Jordan riv-
err on the east, in what we now technlc-
ally call Palestine. Three tribes how
ever, had been given territory east OF
the Jordan toward the Arabian desert,
on the fertile highlands which are to
this day the best soil in the Holy Land.
Here in the territory of Cad was the
city of Jabesh-Gilead
Atrocities Are Old Fashioned.
Ever lowering on the edge OF the
Israelitish communities east of the
Jordan were the Ammonites, a great
and war-like people, of whom we learn
from both the Old Testament and from
the Babylonian monuments. At this
time they had a powerful ruler named
Nahash, who had besieged Jabesh-Gil-
cad, and had forced it to seek terms Of
surrender. The hunger, wounds and
disease of the besieged were not great
~ different from what usually occom-
pany successful siege.
The answer that was returned by Ma
hash, when Israelites sued for peace,
was truly oriental, displaying that
cruelty which usually camps with ar
mics. A blood lust seems to thrive In
war. The fiendish proposal of Nahash
was that he would spare the city, pro-
vided every man would come forward
and have his right eye put out This
scheme would mean a perpetual jibe
at the Israelites. In addition to being
cruel and inhuman punishment, 1t
was a constant humiliation to the pride
of the people.
The tyranny Of it becomes greater
when we consider the helplessness OF
the people They were at the end Of
their fighting. They could do no more.
The mercy of their conquerors was
their only hope. When the ultimatum
was received they asked for ten days
respite, and this the conquerors read
lily granted, for it merely prolonged the
suflerings of their victims.
A Chance For Hero.
The tale is almost contemporary.
When messengers came from Jabesh-
G;lead 20 Israel, the greater part Of the
people received the news with weeping
and with wringing of hands. They sub
stituted sorrow for service. Most Of us
probably are to be classified with the
futile folk who stand on river bank

(REvlEW OF SUNDAY SCHOOL LEssoN3

and wave our hands foolishly while
man browns before our eyes. The re-
cord says, "All the people lifted up
their voice, and wept."
There was one man who spent no
| time in idle weeping.
1t was Saul, who quickly took def
mite measures for the help of the i'm
periled Israelites in Jabesh-Gilead.
Here we find Saul at his. greatest
height.
Hot And Holy Anger.
Amid the helpless weeping of the
mass, up rose this one man quick to do.
and the spirit of God came nightly
upon Saul when he heard these words
and his anger was kindled greatly
Sauls summons to Israel by means
of pieces of bloody beef, which swift
runners bore, suggests the fiery cross
of the Scottish highlands, which called
the clans to war. A wooden cross was
scorched with flame and drenched in
blood las an emblem of the fire and
sword awaiting all who should neglect
its summons
No lacrymose message was it that
went from the new king to his people,
1t was a strong mans summons. OF
course it put the fear of the Lord into
the hearts of men, even as the fearless
words of strong men do in our own
day. Perhaps there is hint of Billy
Sundays power in this episode of the
singing message which brought re-
cruits to Sauls standard
When Justice Fell.
A host of three hundred thousand
Isreelites swiftly assembled to follow
Saul into action. The sight was one
to fuse patriots into unity. Such oc-
casions as this make for national senti-
ment. In helping beleagured Jabesh-
| Gilead Saul was incidentally and I'M
Willingly doing most to strengthen his
own power over Israel.
Across the Jordan in the beleaguered
city of Jabesh-Gilead, the distraught
anG anxious Jews had received the
message Of succor soon to come They
adopted a strategem, sending word to
Nahash Tomorrow we will come out
unto you and We shall do with us all
that seemeth good unto YOU
| But before that tomorrow broke. the
hosts of Israel, divided into three great
companies, fell swiftly upon the Sleep
| ing Ammonites and until the heat of
the day they were busy in shifting the
enemy. and it came to pass that they
that remained were scattered so that
no two of them were left together"
