GENERAL CONFERENCE
or CHRISTIAN WORKERS.
Daily Song Service at NorthfieId One
of the Popular Features.

East Mortified, Mass, Aug. s.
Daily song services in charge OF
Charles NJ. Alexander are proving one
of the most popular features of the
general conference of Christian work
ers which is now in full swing at
Northheld. Mr.. Alexander, who has
toured the world with the evangelists
Torrey and Chapman. was secured for
the conference at the last minute
through his inability to take a trip to
the two daily platform meetings and
conducting a personal work and song
service every morning and second
song service at the close of the even
ing meetings. His success in bringing
out the spirit of the hymns and get
ing everyone to join in the singing has
given him a foremost reputation among
the leaders of religious singing
i. The conference will continue through
Sunday, Aug Is. Another daily part
of the programme. besides Mr.. Alexan-
der's services, is series of Bible lee
lures by Rev. A. T. Robertson of
Louisville. Ky. DR.. Robertson Is a
leading Greek scholar and a speaker
who brightens his lectures by his in
| formal manner and humorous COM
ments- A series of lectures delivered
at previous conference has been pub
| lished. The attendance is increasing
and a series Of famous speakers are
addressing large audiences at morn
ing and evening services and at Round
Top.
Among other speakers to be heard

SEEDING DAHLIAS.
The Wet Weather Promotes Growt

The Wet Weather Promotes Growth.
A cool, wet season is always a good
dahlia season. and the summer Of 1915
has witnessed a greater abundance of
blooms than were really welcome in
July, for the fanciers like a later sea-
son.
Mrs. Charles Gardner on Maple
street is cutting a variety of Seeding
dahlias that are capable of making the
growers of the best imported varieties
envious, for they excel in size, form
and beauty of color the best varieties
offered to the trade. Her No. 20 seed
ling makes its parent Geisha look light
and diminutive, and all of her leading
seedlings are simply magnificent.
]. o. Landon of Treadway avenue is
a dahlia grower who always finds
pleasure in growing seedlings. Some
very pretty collarettes he has obtained
from seed. two of them being equal IN
beauty to Mde. Pouriere and Prince de
Venosa.
Growing dahlias from seed is a
source of pleasure to those who enjoy
the development Of new plants; but
the yield of flowers that come up to
the standard are very few indeed.
Famous growers claim that only one
or two good sellers are to be expected
from 10000 plants
