Christian Training For Military
Camps.

The Moody Bible Institute of Chi
cago, has lent one of its professors,
f. O. Sellers, to the International
y. NJ. C. A. for evangelistic service
in the English camps. The Institute
is DESTROYS of living up to its pseudo
nym of THE West Point of Christian
Service" by being prepared for any
demand on it's student body OF work
ers in the United States camps in the
evangelistic field, or through the
channel of the Red Cross or in other
ways. Some of it's graduates at the
close of the last term were called un-
to Christian work in the army and
others are expecting service as chap
lains in the navy. The training is
entirely free for Christian men and
women of any state, nation, or de-
nomination when references are satis-
factory. Catalogues are sent free on
application.

Push The Work Along.

At last we can see where the abom-
Unable road through the town will be
improved. The State Road Commits
sion has agreed to join the town in
making the improvement, and we un-
derstand the commissioners have
tentatively agreed to do the towns
share at once, but the property own
ers on Church and Water streets will
have to pay for curb and gutter which
will cost about so cents per running
front foot.
A committee has been appointed to
secure the consent of the property
owners requesting the improvement
to be made. No time should be lost
in getting this under way. This
street will be greatly benefited by this
improvement and the property hold
ers should not fail to agree promptly.
The town can by ordinance require
the property holders to do this work.
We hope the work will speedily be
accomplished as this street has been
an eyesore and nuisance long enough.

Do Your Bit.

The ladies of Thurmont, young and
old, are afforded an opportunity to
do their patriotic bit by helping to
sew, knit and do other things helpful
in Red Cross work. The Auxiliary
to the Frederick County Defense
League which is working under Red
Cross directions and instructions, is
now under way. A very enthusiastic
meeting was held in Town Hall on
Monday night last when 80 members
were enrolled. No one should refuse
to become member, for it is engag
ing in a work that means much to
those who will be compelled to actu"
ally serve in the war in which we are
now engaged. Some one who is near
and dear to you may be called to
serve in the trenches somewhere in
France" perchance, and you won't
feel right unless you do your bit to
help those who will be called on to
suffer.
