"Give him hell,' roared the congregation.
"All right cried the preacher. Now
then. for the benediction. Please shout
after me- Give the kaiser hell "
Give the kaiser hell!' responded the
congregation, and individual members there
of sang out, "Amen Amen!"
And then the preacher shook hands all
around. When he had finished, his own
hands were black with grease and CRIME.
But he didn't mind that. He pulled a little
bulldog pine out of his pocket, tamped IT
full of plug cut, lighted it and then
reached for his coat and vest.
Tie preacher was the Rev. DR.. Willis A.
Moore. who has filled the pulpits of stylish

New Year Greeting

A happy New Year, and may it
continue TO be a happy year till the
last day has passed off the calendar.
May health and prosperity and the
peace that passeth understanding"
be your portion. / do not say that
l wish for you nothing but prosper
ity and life's good things.
We, all of us, need some cloudy
days, some hills to climb, some
places where we must cling, with
both hands, to our Guide. There must
be some hours of trial and of sore
temptation, or we cannot put our
selves in the place of the tempted
and tried; we cannot be almost over
come with the temptation and come
out of the conflict victorious by the
grace of God, and not be more capa-
BILE of helping that other one.
Life has taught us many lessons
and best of all should be the lesson
of unselfishness.
Everyone meets with temptation
or will have before life is over, but
it is how we meet temptation that
counts.

my eyes straight ahead, but often

lady, she won't look at U.S. and

words. but the tone in which they
are said that hurts me. Often |
am inclined to answer them, but |
don't know exactly how, and
whether il is proper for a young

You do perfectly right to pay no
attention to any strange men who
accost you on the street. Don't let
any remarks they make hurt your
feelings since they are unworthy Of
notice. 1t would not be proper to
reply in any way to- them. DO not
appear to notice il, and act as II
you did not even hear what they
say.

me a costly ring for Christmas.
Would it be right for me to accept
it and il l do what should l give
him? f. II.
You ought not to exchange eX-
pensive gifts with your friends as
il is not good form to receive eX-

right provided your mother does
