The game was we'll played and the

hard did George Graham work and SO
hard were some of the bumps he re-

collapsed.
The locals at times showed flashes
of good form but the team work of
the All Stars, made possible by their
long training and poundage of beef,
was handicap too much for the Be-
midg five to cope with. However,
there was plenty of interest and ex-

part of both teams to make the con-
test worth while and big crowd

ANOTHER WEEK OF
SPECIAL SERVICES
WILL Be CONDUCTED
DIR. ERNEST THACKER WILL
CONTINUE TO PREACH TWICE
DAILY THROUGH NEXT sun
DAY AT FIRST PRESBYTERIAN.

DR.. Ernest Thacker, who has
preached so ably twice daily since last
Wednesday at the First Presbyterian
church, announced last night that the
services viii continue through next
Sunday at the same church, and two
services a day will be held. The
morning service, to take place at
1880 o'clock, will continue not longer
than 45 minutes, and arrangements to
leave business houses may be made
for that length of time only. The
night services viii start at 7:45
o'clock and to continue during the bal
ance of the week.
Large, overflow congregations at
tended three services which were held
Sunday, and each hour the hum
dreds present heard a very logical
presentation Of subjects previously
announced. It was necessary at each
service to throw open the Sunday
school addition, and every seat at the
II o'clock service appeared to have
been occupied. That interest contin-
ues TO grow was evidenced by last
nights congregation, when the Sun
day school addition was again re-
Questioned and occupied by many.
At the night service the music as
usual was a big feature, and several
young, lady violinists rendered de-
ightful accomplishments. Mr.. Jelks
directed the choir and also sang one
song himself.
In his sermon last night Dr.
Thacker stressed the individual re-
spOnsibility Of every hearer, remind
ing them that, at the last day, it
'twi1 not be wen done as church,
but well done thou good and faithful
and he preached a strong
sermon.
''Is There a Dead Dog?" is the
very unusual subject announced for to-
nights subject. He reminded his
congregation last night that there
was nothing sensational about the
subject, but advised all to get and
study their bibles, to see If they could
find the reference.
Hundreds of pledge cards were
signed during the three services
through Sunday.

or all the men chosen by Woodrow
Wilson to represent this country
abroad, one has pre-eminently made
good. One alone stands out as a sue
cessful diplomat. That man is Henry
Morgenthau. ambassador to Turkey.
At Constantinople, Mr.. Morgenthau
won the admiration and respect of
the other diplomats, handling a deli
cate situation with noteworthy abil-
ity.
Never have the services of such a
man as Mr.. Morgenthau been moro
needed at the Turkish capital than
now. But President Wilson believes
in one sort OF preparedness. He is
determined that his party shall be
financially prepared for the herculean
task of re-electing him president.
With no compunction, therefore, The
president promptly sacrificed the
lesser interests of the United States
to the greater interests of Woodrow
Wilson. Mr.. Morgenthau has been
recalled and will devote himself to
raising campaign fund for the Dem.
ocratic party. in which capacity he
displayed such signal ability -four
years ago, while a new and mex,
perienced man will be sent to Con,

during what promises to be an in
creasingly critical period
Some, there may be. who will fool
ishly imagine that it is more import
ant that the United States be credit
ably and ably represented at Con
stantinople at this time than tina
the Wilson campaign fund should b.
abundant, but DIR. Woodrow Wilson
is not among them.
