emphasis upon four: First, obedi-
ence, which lays the foundation for
intelligent abiding by the law; the
right of property is another basic
feature of good citizenship. respect
for which must be taught in the
home; the best government is tina
with the most property owners
among it's citizens. A third impor
tant item is the teaching of consider

CLOSING SERVICES
UNION EVANGELISTIC MEETINGS
CLOSED LAST EVENING.

There was no lack of interest in
the final meeting at the high school
auditorium which was held last even
ing. The ~evangelists, Reyerends
Smith and Mcbride did not show any
WEAKNESS after their three weeks of
services. The music was, as usual,
very fine. Miss Genevieve Holdridge
at the piano did her part splendidly
as accompanist. Rev. Smith took for
his subject, Popular Amusements."
He was very moderate but positive in
the things he said. He invited in
one should say, Il don't believe it. p"
The startling statements which he
made concerning the dance and the
card party we're illustrated with the
| relating of incidents which have
come under his own notice. All ac-
tive Christian workers, he said, are
against these forms of amusement.
The round dance was the partic-
| ular form that he paid his respects
to. OF the moving pictures he said
they were like novels, some good
and some bad. He called attention
to one picture already advertised
here, which he thought every one
should see. In saying good bye for
himself and his associate, the speak
err thanked all who had a part in
making the meeting a success. He
also thanked the press for the way
they had opened their columns to re
ports of the services.
The following is an extract of a
letter of commentator given 10 Rev
C. c.. Smith and his associate. Rev.
r. M. Mcbride, by the ministers who
have been associated in the union
Lenten services held at the high
school auditorium:
Dear Brother Smith: We, the pas
tors of the four churches affiliated
in the union Lenten services, wish to
express to you our appreciation fol
the splendid work you have done in
conducting this series of services. II
has been a great revival, and you and
your assistant, Prof. Mcbride, have
won the affection and respect of al
the churches and pastors participat'
ing in these meetings. We have
heard scarcely a word OF adVerst
; criticism. We bid you Godspeed and
l pray that you may have increasing
success wherever you go in winning
!, souls for Christ.

SAFETY AND COMFORT
OF SOLDIERS DEPEND
ON OUR PATRIOTISM

Do you realize that the order from
Washington closing down manufac-
turing industries for five days, and
creating fireless Monday for the
remainder of the winter has a direct
bearing upon the comfort and safety
Of your son or brother or nephew at
the front?
Well, such is the case.
The recent billiards throughout
the country had paralyzed traffic of
all kinds. Thousands of cars bound
for the Atlantic ports loaded with
coal and much-needed foodstuffs
were frozen in and hopelessly block
ed on the sidings. As result the
trains could not move. ships could
not leave port lack Of coal IN their
bunkers. This meant that our boys
IN France were liktly to suffer the
lack Of some much needed equipment
or food supplies But by putting
ourselves to slight Inconvenience
we are able to help relieve the condi-
ton. Surely this is small price to
pay for the immense benefits that
will result.
