SPECIAL EMPHASIS
PLACED ON PRAYER
BY IMEThOD|STS
In Celebration Of Centenary Movement
During Passion Week, April 1920.

Columbus, April Especial en-
phashis on prayer is to be placed by
the entire Methodist Episcopal Church
during Passion Week, April Is to 20,
as part of the great Centenary move
ment.
One of the purposes of the Centen-
airy is to enlist the entire spiritual re-
sources Of the church, and plans were
formed for the enrolment of a mil
lion persons as intercessors-each
pledging himself to make prayer a
vital part Of daily life. Already over
five hundred thousand of this million
have been repored, and many nou-
sands of cards have not yet been
counted.
1.-THE war has called to the atten-
ton of the people the vital power OF
prayer in the daily life, as has no &C.
currence in many years." said DR.. E. |.
johnson, Executive Secretary of the
Cincinnati Area. when we seek for
the secret Of the success Of Gen. Foch,
the one genius to whom the world
turned In its hour Of crisis, we find
this statement made: He never fail
ed during the war to spend an hour
on his knees every morning; and ev-
cry night 1t was the same. Moreover
1t was not a new thing to him. He
has done it hi swhole life long
when the Christian church started
out to conquer the world for Christ il

The appalling death-rate from kid
ney disease is due in most cases to
the fact that the little kidney troubles
are usually neglected until they be-
come serious. The slight SYMPTOMS
often give place to chronic disorders
and the sufferer may slip gradually
into some serious form of kidney COM
plant. y
If you suffer from backache, head
aches, dizzy spells; if the kidney Sc
cretions are irregular of passage and
unnatural in appearance, do not de-
lay. Help the kidneys at once.
Doan's Kidney Pills are especially
for kidney disorders-they act where
others fail. Over one hundred thou
sand people have recommended them.
Here is one of many cases in this
vicinity.

LEST WE FORGET

Charlie Robinson landed in New
York last December convalescent
from shrapnel wound received in
that memorable fight in the Argonne
forest. Immediately he wired his
mother that he was all right
But the mother wasn't satisfied.
She wanted to see him. All the
mother love of 25 years, strengthened
by the knowledge that he was wound
ed and suffering, urged her to go to
him.
And she wired him she was coming
on to the hospital at once.
Charlie Robinson shot back a mes
sage Immediately.
Don't come" he wired. There are
thousand men here. Some are leg
less, some are armless, some are blind.
Some are horribly disfigured. If you
see them once you will have the pic
ture before you all your life. Don't
come. l am getting along all right.
You could not help me. You would do
ourself positive injury"
And Charlie Robinson's mother
curbed her mother love, her impa-
tience, her anxiety and stayed at
home.
That shipload of convalescents, vic
Tins of Hun shrapnel and high explo-
sive shells and machine gun bullets
and bayonets and gas, was only one
of many that have come since. And
many are yet to come.
For thousands of Americans will
carry to their graves the scars of their
gallant resistance of Hun aggression.
And every one of these men must be
taken care of by Uncle Sam. Where
they are permanently disabled they
must be trained to such pursuits as
will make them self supporting. Ev-
cry one must be made as nearly indie
pendent as 1t is humanity possible to
do
A big part Of the victory-Liberty
loan will be devoted to that task.
And every man and woman for
whom these heroes fought should

Observation-Disclosures

The Sunday Schools of the city and
county should bestir themselves from
now on planning to make the coming
Go-to-Sunday- School-Day the best day
of the sort Maysville and Mason coun-
ty has ever had. This is the first time
that any attempt has been made at
reporting the attendance of the coun-
ty schools. How are we to know that
the schools are alive If they do not
report. Many county schools organ
ize the first of April for the summer
months. All should be in running
order by now. The Go-to-Sunday-
School-Day committee stands ready to
lend any help possibye to make each
and every school a success. Any
school desiring information can phone
Mrs. J. c. Burwell who is chairman OF
the committee, or Prof C. S. Dale
President of the County Association,
they will gladly give any help they
can. After all is said the best and
most successful way to get out a big
attendance is by going after the folks
with an urgent personal invitation.
Get them there with the automobile II
they cannot come otherwise. And af-
ter you have gotten them there plan
to make your school so attractive, in
teresting and helpful that they will
want to continue. When the schools
have done this they have really full
filled the spirit of Go-to-Sunday-
School-Day. And don't forget to
phone your attendance to PIT Sunday
between the hours of and p. m.
