PAUL 1SZ|K, CO. c
boy, DIES IN BATTLE
OFFICIAL NOTICE FROM WAR DE-
PARTMENT ANNOUNCES DEATH
OF LOlAL YOUNG OTTAWAN--.
KILLED OCT. 12.

Again the city was saddened today
when news travelled around town that
one more boy from Company c, the
company that since the United States
entered the war has been the pride
of every man and woman in the city
had fallen in France. The latest hero
to add one more gold star to the citys
service flag is Paul Ziszik Jr., son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Paul Ziszik of West La
fayette street, who was killed in ac-
ton on Oct l2, according to an official
telegram received late last evening by
his parents
Private Ziszik was made of the ma
terial from which true patriots are
fashioned, and although a native of
Austria was one Of the first young
men in the city TO join the colors
when news was received here that the
United States had entered the war
/ He was loyal to the country of his
/ choice, and was eager and anxious to
| stamp out the great menace which
was threatening the world, and never
/ hesitated one instant in arraying
himself against his relatives in Aus
/ tria.
Mr.. Ziszik was born in Austria
/ twenty-siX years ago and came to the
United States and to ottawa when but
~ years of age He was employed as
a teamster since a very young man
working for various Ottawa business
men.
At the time Of the Mexican reyou

to enlist to war strength, he offerel
his service, but was turned down oI

He left Ottawa with his company Il

SOUL Winning IS THE.
GREATEST WORK IN
THE WHOLE WORLD
DR.. .MAHoOD DELIGHTS LARGE
AUDIENCE WITH HIS ADDRESS
ON THE "GREATEST WORK IN
THE WORLD" LAST EVENING". =.

Interest grows from day to day in
the series Of meetings being conducted
by DR.. ]. w. Mahood at the First
Methodist church. Last evening a
large audience was on hand to listen
to his evening lecture.
He chose for his text THE Greatest
work in the World" and attributed
this work to the winning of souls. say
ing in part;
THE greatest work in the world Is
soul winning and the key to the
modern revival is personal effort in
soul winning. The most subtle de-
luton ever invented by the devil is
the belief that man can be New
Testament Christian and not do some
thing to win others to the Christ who
saved him,
Yet last year there were thirty nine
Methodist Conferences that reported
a decrease in membership and one
third OF all Methodist pastors did not
add a single person to the church
through conversion In recent
twelve months there were 5000
churches in this country that did not
have single conversion.
There are two ways to reach the out
slider. One is to bring into the commu-
nifty a man who is an adept at doing
and saying foolish things The crowd
will always run to see clown. II
I should stand on my head in this
pulpit or do some foolish thing the
church would probably be too small
tomorrow night
The other method is for each Chris
tan to go out and bring another under
the gospel message and thereby win
him TO Christ. Indeed il there had
been found in the early Christian
church anv one who was not bringing
others to Christ the genuness of that
mans Christian life would have been
seriousyl doubted. The church where
men and women are not being con
verted and brought into saving rela-
ton is certainly not the church of
Tesus Christ The apostle said "TNe
love Of Christ constraineth me- When
love for Christ fills the life we w
want to do something to help Others
