new order. In so doing he does not
lay down definite arbitrary rules men
must ever conform to, but he points
out that those who enter into the
blessing he gives must be in such
state of mind as to be receptive to
the truth. They must hunger and
thirst for righteousness, must mourn
Their own lack of spiritual attainment,
ETC., for then will they be on the
lookout and will receive the light of
life which he can give. All who are
self-satisfed and prideful will scarce
ly care for the truth even when it
is clearly stated to them and their
consequent practice Of that truth is
not to be expected.
One great reason, said Rev. Gel
ston, why many are not eligible to
nor attaining a more perfect society
today than they have, lies in the
fact that they do not have the atti-
tude of heart Jesus names, People
today do not hunger and thirst for

CHRISTMAS GOODS
Alma Stores Offering Best Christmas
Goods Ever i'm Stock Here.

The merchants of Alma have gone
out of their way this year in the Sc
lection and securing of Christmas
goods for their patrons, and there
is not storekeeper in this city that
is not carrying a larger line of such
goods than ever before.
During the past week all of the
merchants have been working after
store hours to get their goods prop
erly displayed, so that they may be
seen. looked at and admired, with the
least possible trouble, as they have
had in mind the necessity of enabling
their patrons to make their selections
with the least possible trouble and
delay, thus keeping them even-tem-
pered, as well as reducing the extra
work Of the holiday season to min
imum for their clerks.
One thing is most noticeable this
year in the line of Christmas goods
and that is, while the assortment is
greater than ever, particularly in
toys and other articles for the young
sters, there is noticeable lack of
goods labeled, made in Germany"
In other words those who purchase
Christmas goods this year are prac-
tically certain that the goods which
are purchased are American made.
It was not until the war made home
production of toys, etc, necessary
that it was found that America could
produce the best toys that the world
has seen.
While the merchants are doing
everything TO make Christmas shop
ping a matter Of far less trouble
than ever before they are urging
their patrons to shop early, to shop
Immediately, as it is now only two
weeks until Christmas. This will
insure less trouble in being waited
upon in the stores. will be far less
trying for the patrons and for the
clerks. Not only that, but it will
enable better selection, as the stocks
are hardly touched as yet by the
eager hands of the Christmas shop
pers, a thing that will not be true
another week hence.

FIRST ADDRESS
First Sermon in the New Series
Interesting and Helpful.

Last Sunday evening the first SER
mon in new series entitled "The
Constitution of a Perfect Social Or
der" was given in the Presbyterian
church. The subject was "Qualifica-
tions for Membership"
In his sermon Rev. Gelston pointed
out that one Of the gifts Christ
brought to the world was the perfect
law often called THE Constitution
Of the Kingdom of God" This perfect
law is given in the New Testament
in MATHS, s, and z and il is to il
that men need now to look as they
hope to construct a perfect social
order
In the first paragraph Of this law
Jesus gives the qualifications men

Helen Moore of Wells College, and
Mr.. William Wheeler, head of the
vocal department of Ann Arbor. All
these artists are well known and may
be safely trusted 10 give a splendid
rendering of their parts. This ora
torio will be a great treat to the
music lovers Of the neighborhood.
The training and leadership are in
the hands of Prof. Hosmer, who has
become known from the splendid
quality of his work as musical di-
rector in Alma college. This is the
second number in the Chautauqua-
Lyceum coorse.

in securing, that even though a more
righteous way of living is clearly set
forth before them they have no eyes
with which to see it, and do not in
consequence direct their steps toward
it.
