DAWSON METHODISTS
WENT OVER GOAL
QUOTA OF CHURCH HERE WAS
$4,000, AND $22,45 WAS
RAISED SUNDAY.

Dawson Methodists and their
friends are rejoicing that the church
has gone over the top in the Cen
tenary drive In less than six hours
after the campaign was officially
opened the quota was oversubscribed.
Sunday, May 18th, will long be a
memorable date in the church's his
tory. Following a period of instruc-
ton and inspiration, covering several
weeks, the membership came togeth-
er at the time designated for the
launching OF the big drive, and be-
fore night reports reaching the
charge director, Mr.. M. H. Harper,
indicated that the church would not
fall below its allotment
At the morning service the pastor
preached a sermon appropriate to
the occasion, using as a text the
Masters question to Simon Peter,
Lowest thou me?" and Judge ]. G..
Parks, chairman of the four minute
speakers, brought an inspiring mes
sage on Methodism's opportunity and
responsibility. Promptly at 2 o'clock
the teams appointed to make the can
vass re-assembled in the church and,
after earnest prayer, went forth to
secure the subscriptions of the men,
bers.
Seldom has a more impressive, in
spring service been held in the Daw-
son Methodist church than that Sun
day night. Rev. o. B. Chester, the
presiding elder of the district, deliv-
cred strong Centenary discourse,
and Mr.. Harper called for reports
from team captains. AS these re-
ports were made the number of sub
scribers and the amount of the sub
scription secured by each team were
placed upon blackboard and, when
the figures were added, it was found
that 316 parties had pledged a total
of $22,452.25 on an allotment of
$4,000. The report by teams was as
follows:
w. A. Baldwin, captain, 20 sub
scribers, amount $1,815.00.
DR.. L. Lamar, captain, 81 subscrib-
ers, amount $1,427.50.

ranged for the closing exercises of
the Graves high school The COM
mencement sermon will be preached
Sunday, May 25th, by Rev. o. B.
Chester, which is a guarantee that all
who hear his forceful message will
be highly entertained. Another feat
ure of special interest will be the

The drive does not close until next
Sunday and by that time the workers
hope to roll up a much larger total
for the local church. Some of the
members could not be seen Sunday
and these will be given an opportu-
nifty to have part in the enterprise
before the subscription lists are clos
ed.
Reports coming in to the district di-
rector, ]. A. Laing, indicate that the
Americas district will oversubscribe
us quota Dy several thousand dollars.
An interesting feature of the SER
vice last Sunday evening was the an
nouncement of records made by 9th
er charges IN the district up to that
hour. At one minute after twelve
o'clock Judge Laing received word
that Leary church had oversubscribed
its quota 5000. Later the entire cir
cult reported out. Edison circuit re-
ported $1,000 over its allotment, and
Blakely station $4,000 over its allot-
ment, Lee Street church, Americas,
has gone $4,000 over its apportion-
ment, and one church on the Leslie
circuit reports three hundred per
cent. paid. The church at Graves has
exceeded its quota by several hun
dred dollars.
The members of the local church
are naturally elated over the achieve
ment of last Sunday and feel that it
reflects credit upon the faith and f.
deity of Dawson Methodism. The
charge director and his associates on
the teams have been untiring in their
efforts and to their diligence is large
ly due the success of the campaign.
The final report will be made at the
service next Sunday evening.

Chicago, Jan. 2l.--Bishop Thomas

keynote Of the Methodist Episcopal

educational campaign which con-
templates the raising Of n fund of
100000 in five years, in an adj
dress delivered here tonight before
the joint centenary committee of
the denomination.
cit is n program which contem-
plates" he said, putting all govern
ment and all diplomacy of the world
on an open Christian basis OF right
eousness with square dealing and
justice for high and low, rich and
poor. 1t proposes that instead of
the strong exploiting the weak, tney
shall recognize the debt of strength
to weakness and each find his happi-
ness in the happiness of all and his
highest good in the good of all. IT
proposes that we give a new mean
ing to citizenship in America, in
China in India and in the isles Of
the sea,
This program proposes hospitals
where there never have been hos
pitfalls 1t proposes better houtes,
better schools where there have been
inferior schools or none at all II
proposes that as we have made the
love of God burn M the dross Of base
desires in the individual soul, we
shall now extend the spirit of Christ
to all realms of human action"

her. 81 am agreeable to what you
propose" did she tell Bolo Pasha?
and as he thought of Pave astcdt, did
Bolo smile?
That the old German banker wore
his heart on his sleeve, Bolo well
knew. That Felice would meet with
the full approval of Bernstorff's
agent, Bolo had not the slightest
doubt. for, as Bolo said, Il am con-
noisseur of women and he had
judged Felice to be Of quality to
capture this amorous old Teuton with
whom his dealings were.
Now Lieutenant Verdier, with his
letter of Introduction from Monsieur
Marchal to Perier ct Gle, the Paris
bankers had just presented 1t to Pa
venstedt. To Bernstorffs agent the
French officer was thenceforth "one
of the boys" albeit an innocent tool,
Bolo having passed his approval upon
Mile. Feicc. the next move was Pa
venstedt's. You see it all had to be
quite casual; things had to seem to
happen naturally; there could be no
secret conferences" no pussyfootinG
around to dark rendezvous. Things
are not done that way when great
schemers plot the downfall of ma
tons. Rather they are done these
days quite in the open, with seeming
innocence.
What more natural than for old Pa
venstedt, humming 81 Love the La
dies,"eto esaanter one afternoon into
the Fifth avenue showrooms of the
then Maison Buzenet where, "viel-
lecht' he would buy some gown which
might catch his eye for some lady fair
of his heart. You have seen them,
the 'old boys" and bad husbands, pur-
chasing feminine apparel in a Fifth
avenue shop? Pavenstedts visit to
the Maison Buzenet was ostensibly
one such.
To Paris on $50 Week.
Let us record some of the dry SEN
fences of the examination of one OF
the Maison's girls by the attorney gen.
erals office of New York state.
Q. State what you know with regard
TO the relations of mademoiselle and
Mr. Pavenstedt; how We're they
brought together?
A. i presume it was in that time
when they are all here-that is Mr.
verdier, Mr.. Bolo and Mr. Pavenstedt
that they met.
q. Do you know that Dolo and
Verdier and Pavenstedt were fire.
quently together from anything you
have been told by anybody?
a. Not the three together but Mr.
Bolo and Mr. Nerdier were together
and Pavenstedt and Mr.. Nerdier were
together but | don't know that they
were all together at once.

AIkaIi Makes Soap
Bad For Washing Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos

The best thing to use Is just plain

You can get this at any drug store,
and a few ounces will last the whole

all that is required. 1t makes an
