Gosh, l can't understand WIN
people go to church and dead beat
their way through. Let's get togeth-
er next Sunday morning, discuss all

Miss Grace SAKE, teacher of bible.

presents the bible stories.

That's the principle to go by

THE world can tell whether
you're one of the devils hogs or
one OF Gods sheep"
Some people would go straight

pie of some Of the people in the
churches"
Now, it's first / come. and then

God writes His judgment not

social relationship, but according
to your heart"

AFTERNOON SESSION

so many people today Just sim
ply do what they wish to do and
they don't care anything about
what God says. They forget that
they are witnesses for him, said
Rev. Sunday in his afternoon ser
mon yesterday. His subject was,
Eye are my witnesses" taken from
Isaiah 43:10, eye are my witnesses
saith the Lord of hosts"
MANY people would go straight
to hell if they followed the example
of some of the people in the
churches. Jesus Christ has talked
his cause upon the character and
the utterances and the lives of his
followers. But the world asks
religion which shows through &C
lions of the doors, rather than
through their words God issues a
challenge to the people who are
following him to witness for him
through their deeds, 1.-The world
can tell your attitude. Jesus
Christ has his struggles the same
as you had yours, or l mine, and
by relaxing his resistance to sin
oh, he could have avoided a great
deal of pain and hardship. By re-
Taxing his resistance and by preach
ing doctrines that were palatable
to Pharisees, they would have ap-
plauded him and voted him a mem
Der of their clique-but Christ
couldn't please God and that bunch
of high brows at the same time, SO
he told them where to head in. He
could have preached-oh, l could
preach gospel that would please
everybody in this city except the
decent people.
Il hear lot of people pray, oh,
God, give me power You waste
your breath. You've got to give
yourself first before you can have
power. First they gave them
selves to the Lord, and the power
came afterwards.
They say of Billy Bray, the
Cornish miner, that he looked up
and prayed so much that his eyes
had a sort of an upward look to
them and a fellow met him stumb-
ling along the highway one time
and said: Hello, Billy, how are
you getting along?' He said, 4
don't know anything about the
earth; I haven't been on the earth
for 10 years.
We'll, now, gosh, don't be too
aerial. Don't join the spiritual
aviation league and get away from
old terra firma altogether. You
ought to be posted on some things
in order to see men and women
break their letters and go free"

JONES RESIGNS
FROM STATE u
GOES TO CALF.

E|E1=l 2 ENNET
Wermialion, s. D.--The resignation
of DR. w. Franklin Jones, head Of the.
department of education at the Uni
Sersity OF South Dakota, has been an.
nounced, effective July 4. DR.. Jones
is to become dean Of the school of
education OF the University OF South
ern California, in Los Angeles,
Hundreds of youngsters know DR..
Jones, for he measured the arms Of
thousands Of children to prove that
left handed children are as efficient
rs right hai.aed children If they are
properly. trained. This research was
conducted with an instrument, the
brachiometer, which DIR. Jones invent
ed and which gives the exact meas.
%ureinents OF the arm bones. There is
always a difference in thu, right and
left arm bones. and whichever are
larger determines the "handedness.,
of a person.
The mistake of most educators is to
force lefthanded children to learn to
write and to do other work With
the right hand. This causes loss OF
efficiency and ma cause the child To
stutter, DR.. Jones says. Often som
accident in early life will cause a
child to use the wrong hand. This
can safely be remedied by a transfer
but where a naturally lefthanded
child learns to use the right hand,
experiments have shown that he is
inefficient. DR.. Jones research on
this subject has been established in a
booklet entitled, "A Study OF Hand.

Aberdeen, May 14.-The South Da-

continued sessions today in the Odd
Fellows hall and this mornings
meeting was characterized by two
splendid addresses, following the read
ing of reports by the officers and the
~trancacting of ASSOCIATION business.
w. L. Ware of Chicago, associate
editor of the Dry Goods Reporter,
gave q splendid practical n perth
ncnt talk on Merging the Town and
Country by Cooperation"
so War as I know, this is the first
time hat a dry goods man has
tackled a subject so thoroughly satur-
ated with farming as mine is, and I
have selected this subject with my
eyes. open for I believe that contained
in this subject are all of the elements
that vsll build up the town and coun-
try and hold trade at home,' said
Mr.. Ware, after a short and happy
opening to his talk.

every retail merchant in every agri-

the farm bureau for these factors are.
doing more to increase the wealth OF
the county estate and nation and to
keep young men and young women
contented in their fan IN homes than
anything yet heard of.
Bankers first realized that the
county agent, if given proper support,
would increase the value Of their Sc.
curities and therefore bankers every
where held out the glad hand to the
county agent and worked with him.
TT is of vital interest to you as
merchants to ave more and better
stock and grain raised in your eoun.

have the boys and girls on the farms
surrounding your towns Interested in
clubs h a raise the standard of pro-
ducts and not only that these clubs
keep the interest of the young people
and assist nightly in keeping them
contented and happy Oh the farms.
The constant movement of young
people from rural districts to The large
centers is jeopardizing the future OF
the small town.
Nothing will do more to stop this
movement than to interest these
young people in farm life and thai
may be done by making farm life
more pleasant and more profitable
This may be accomplished much easier
than you think. 1t takel cooperative
