At the mission at Holy Trinity
 last night the preacher declared
 tha. the Christian religion is not
 Gas SO many suppose) merely mo, al code, nor even following the
 example of Christ" nor is the Church Il mere charitable organiZa- ton. social club. nor human or ganization in which opinions arc reached, but, first of al., it is liv- ing being alive in Christ, an or der of higher life, passing from
 death unto life now, the imparta-
 tion of a certain quality Of life the absence of which is considered in the Bible as death. In the personal application, the preacher asked if we are alive, Gall there" or are merely existing like the lower animals using the ma terials of life as the end instead of the means.
 This subject will lead to the one his evening, on the Body which God has provided as the centre and
 organ of spiritual life, its channtls, and manifestations, which will help one to understand what the King

Charging that the Germans are guilty

cabled combined appeal to Great Bri-

There also have been systematic efforts,

the Poles and drive them out of Silesia,
thus insuring a. plebiscite favorable to
Germany.

it describes as "organized crime" COM

allies, who are to be held responsible
