tor of paper in Indiana grew tired
of being called liar, and announced
that he would tell the truth in the

John BONN, the LATEST merchant

John Coyle, our grocer man, is
doing a poor business. His store is
dirty and dusty. How can he do
much?
Rev. Styx preached last Sunday
night on Charity The sermon was

Dave Sonkey died at his home in

heart failure. Whisky killed him.

very ordinary town girl, who does

her mother three days in her life.
She is not beauty by any means, ,and
has a gait like duck. The groom is
an up-to-date loafer. He has been
living off the old folks at home all
his life, and is not worth shucks. 1t

TO SAVE LITTLE LIVES
Appeal to Children of America to
Save Children of Warning Lands.

The Federal Council of the Chur.
ches of Christ in America has receiv.
ed word from many of the churches
that they desire to devote the offer
ings on Children's Sunday, June IL
to war relief funds to help save the
children of Europe from disease, star
vation and death.
The Federal Council has therefore
suggested that, so far as it does not
| interfere with other arrangements,
the Church and Sunday School offer
ings on Children's Sunday be devoted
in whole or part to the suffering
children of all the warning nations.
DIR. Charles S. Macfarland, General
Secretary of the Federal Council,
said in regard to this plan:
"Children's Sunday comes in June
What more fitting disposition could
the children of America make of
their offering than to send it to
their little brothers and sisters of
Armenia. Albania, Belgium and Po-
land? The plight of the innocent
children in these and other lands
should be described to the children
here.
do you realize" he said, that
the children in these stricken lands
are hungry and half naked and cold !;
that the filthy rags in which they are
clad are in that condition because
their homes and means of cleanli-
ness have been destroyed; that this
and the lack Of food exposes them to
disease and death; that children,
pitifully thin little girls and boys, are
dying by the thousand in novels, be-
meath hedges, on mountainsides, ,hud-
died in the ruins of once beautiful
homes? All their homes were beau
tiful oAee-because they were homes.
mo stronger foundation could be
laid for peace among the maturing
generation in all lands than for
American children to save the lives
of the suffering children of all ma
tions now. Do you think that child
would save another child's life now
and plunge bayonet into his heart
ten years afterward? Do you think
that the child whose life was saved
would give him cause for war?
I'm the Caucasus the children are
now fewer than the grown people
In Poland thousands are hiding
among ruins, in woods, or in hol-
lows, SuDSlStlng on roots and the
bark of trees. Yet a few weeks and
the sound of children's voices in
Albania will be hushed forever. The
typhus epidemic left twenty thou
sand orphan children in Servia. For
ty cents a day will keep one of the
survivors alive in Southern France
The millions of little boys and girls
in the Sunday Schools of America
could add many days to the lives of
their little brothers and sisters who
have nothing to do with the war ,and
help to recreate a happier world"
The Federal Council suggests that
the special children's offerings be
sent through any of the recognized
relief organizations, one of which,
the Fund for Starving Children of
Europe, 70 Fifth avenue, New York
city, is devoted entirely to the relief
of the children of the warning coun-
tries.

IBERIA TO THE CONTRARY.

The Iberia police jury claims that Il
cannot b legally forced to continue cat
lie dipping, and has laid down in the
Eight for tick eradication. Henry N.
1Aarr, one Of the progressive planters
and dairy farmers Of Iberia, contended
chat the parish was under = moral, which
b higher than . legal Obligation, but
that was too high for the police jury.
The state remembers the moral obliga-
ton basis. Senator Broussard had
passed through Congress the sppropria-
tion for . cattle demonstration farm in
the sugar section. He had Iberia in
mind, and the tacit understanding was
that the valuable institution would be
located there, but il was not 90 written

HERBERT BIGELOW AND HIS
WORK IN CINCINNATI.

They called his chuhh "Dynamite
HALL" There were people in Cincinnati
then ready to lynch Mr. Bgelow. just as
there are people now who would pay
him handsome bonus to leave Gin
cinnati. Murat Halstead, the news
paper editor, delivered lecture before
the Economic Club defending the Gov
lands, and he had TO escape by the back
| door
| 1t is long story but events moved
| rapidly in the life of Mr. Bigelow and
| his church Again he was losing con
servation and near conservatives be.
| cause Of his views But. he was gaining
large recruits from Socialists and Single
Taxers-mostly the latter-foks who
had convictions and were willing to fight
for them.
One day man came into Mr. Bigc-
lows study and threw himself down on
a couch and began to cry All he would
say was: "He is dead-he is aead"
Mr.. Bigelow asked. what is tn. nat
ter3 who is dead7". The man replied:
Henry George-he is dead"
That made an indeliabe impression
on Mr.. Bigelow, and he was impression
able-one had to be who listened to the
stories of the poor and the wayfarers.
He had studied Progress and poverty"
in College and then he had disposed of
that as one Of the fool things, the product |
OF some half-baked philosopher that had
tried to apply some quack remedy to
society. Now he said to himself.
Who is this man Henery George, who
has made such an impression that this
man away off in Cincinnati cries about
him." So he read Progress and Pow
erty again. and the scales fell from his
eyes. He believed then and believes
now, that Henry George discovered
social law-as important in social af-
fairs as the low of gravitation is to
physics, and that there never will be
anything of importance done in solving
social problems, until the truth that
Henry George preached, is recognized
and applied
Mr.. Bigelow's church gradually drifted
Into an organization that his enemies
'aid was not church at all: they were
not trying. said these critics. to save
heir own souls. or anybody else's souls;
hey were just trying to save society. It
vas reform organization they said
preaching this or that "ism." Mr.. Big
low and his people finally sold the
:hurch property because it had ceased
o be useful and because the neighbor-
lood had become very noisy. They
lsed the interest Of the money they re-
eived from the sale Of the church to
'ay the rent Of theater. Most of Mr..
'igslow's people objected to building
mother pile Of brick and mortar. to re-
main the tombstone of some dead or
