SERVICES AT
BAPTIST CHURCH
"BeanIess Bean Soup to be Rev. NC
AlIister's Topic on Sunday
Night.

II am going to speak on 'Beanless
Bean SOUP Sunday night" said Rev. F.
p McAllister, Of the First Baptist
church. because the statement is an
indicator Of the times in which we
are living In the days OF peerless
! beer, and foodless foods, coffeeless
coffee, and linenless linen. we are too
prone to take another step and have
a ChristIess Christmas"
THE candle in the window Idea 1s
GOOD one and I am glad that every
wear The Gate City encourages us to
continue the old custom, the sentl-
ment is touching, but there will be a
mighty big bunch that will put can
dies in their windows, and Christmas
trees in their homes, and give gifts as
did the Wise men to their most De-
loved friends. but IF Christ thousand
times in Bethlehem be born, If He's
not born in them their hearts are still
forlorn.' Joseph might have been able
| to asl, at the Inn for the best room IN
the house and bath. but if the hotel Is
filed with petty officials and swells
from the city he will have to go to
the barn. Even today we are com
pelling Christ to take the upper berth
mo room below.
Some churches with their snobb1sh-
ness and criticism have rightly caused
the Lord to say he had been trying to
get into them for the last nine years
and they wouldn't have Him. And
there are lot of homes in keokuk
II the Christ child entered there would
be so many things within their walls
so out of harmony it would be incon-
sistant for Him to stay-the only con-
yenient place for Him would be in the
woodshed. Too busy. We say, Oh, l
have no time for religion. Sure, put
Jesus in the stable.
"In the business world continued
the minister, "if a commodity, or an
invention is going to be an asset, we
grab at it no matter how much we are
doing. II men only could know the
value today of this greatest asset
whose birth We celebrate tomorrow,
We would have sample of the real
thing"

CHRISTMAS CAROL.
The earth has grown old with its bur
den of care,
But at Christmas it always is
young;
The heart of the jewel burns lus'
trous and fair,
And It's soul, full of music, breaks
forth on the air
When the song Of the angels Is
sung.
1t is coming, Old Earth, it is coming
tonight!
On the snowflakes which cover thy
sod,
The feet Of the Christ-child fall gen
tie and white.
And the voice Of the Christ-child tells
or: with delight
That mankind are the children OF
God.
On the sad and the lonely, the
wretched and poor,
That voice of the Christ child shall
fall,
And to every blind wanderer opens
the door
OF a hope that he dared not dream
Of before,
With a sunshine of welcome for all
The feet of the humblest may walk
in the field y
Where the feet of the hottest have
trod;
This, this is the marvel to mortals
revealed
When the silvery trumpets OF Christ
mas have pealed,
That mankind are the children OF
God.

SENATOR W. 4. CLARK IS MOST OPTIMISTIC
 ON COPPER OUTLOOK
Owners of United Verde Tells of Possibilities in Great Jerome Copper Property. Better Future Than Past.

In reviewing affairs of his United Verde Copper company holdings at Jerome and Clarkdale former Senator w. A. Clark in the Butte Miner St recent date makes mention of many important matters, among which he says that the smelter plant is to be made capable immediately of having a monthly output of 10,O0O,000 pounds of copper Work is to begin al once for the enlarged capacity to treat the above tonnage. Speaking Of mine con ditrons. he says that the greatest depth reached to date is 1900 feet. but that no ore as yet has been eX- tracted below the 1500-foOt level. The ore reserves from the surface down, will provide. he says from SIX to eight years of supply of the above tonnage to be treated without any further development being prosecuted during that time.
 He continues: We have hear'l a great deal atout a slump coming after the European war ends. but 1 do not look for that to happen. Why, in Germany they have needed copper so badly that they have stripped the copper roofs off of buildings and substituted wood; they have taken the copper used for trolley wires, and they have gone into every place where copper has been used and ap- propriated it for war purposes. All that huge copper tonnage must be re- placed. but they cannot furnish it. They will call on us and I know what am talking about when I say that have been approached by some big interests asking me to make cor tracts t5 deliver copper for such re- construction work after the war is over. If our people are wise, and pre- pare for it, we will ind out markets greatly enlarged upon the termina- ton of the war. that will run from one year to eighteen months moT. think we will see ownderful pc riod of prosperity in the years that are to follow the close of the war"
