Nashville, Tenn.-A great Methodist
Church, erected and maintained by tho
Methodist Episcopal Church, South
lztu be erected amid the ruins OF
fprss. In Belgium. This was stated
BY Dr.. w. B. Bsauchamp, director
general Of tho Centenary Commission,
Who, with Bishop James Atkins, tho
bishop in charge Of European mission
lsslds, Just returned from Belgium.
The city OF Ypres, terribly deVas'
tated, will not bs rebuilt In its entirety.
The once magnificent Cloth Hall, the
finest in the world, the Cathedral the
town hall, the churches, and other
large ruins will be left a. perpetual
memorial.
On these the city mayor has oaused
signs to be erected reading: This
q holy ground. No stone OF this fab
ne may be taken away It IS heri'
tare for all civilized peoples"
A City Of Memorable
Ypres Is city Of memorials. Tne
British government has selected site
and will erect great museum as
monum- Mt to her fallen heroes.
Similar buildings will be built by
Canada, New Zealand, Australia and
Belgium.
In the midst Of these memorials the
Southern Methodist Church will be
erected. It will contain a library
reading room and social equipment,
IN addition to its auditorium and
class rooms.
"Ypres will always be q mecca for
travellers" said DR.. Beauchamp.
~Thousands and millions will flock to
that battlefield. Our Church will not
only minister to the people OF Ypres
and the surrounding territory, but 1t
will also serve these visitors"
Great Plant In Brussels.
The Methodists have also purchased
4 great building in Brussels, which
will be their headquarters for Europe.
It will contain offices, an auditorium,
reading and lecture rooms, a publish
ing plant and social equipment.
The general secretaries Of the two
Protestant bodies of Belgium, the
state Church and the free Church, will
have offices In this building, thus
making it the Protestant center OF
Belgium.
Southern Methodists have also pur.
chased a half interest in the Protest
ant hospital Of Brussels. 1t will be
enlarged and its capacity will be
doubled.
Relief Stations Established.
DR.. Beauchamp reported that thou.
sands of children will freeze to death
this winter, because the Germans
flooded the mines and filled them with
concrete, thus making it impossible
for the people to obtain fuel.
Children, with their mothers" said
DR.. Beauchamp, 'are now living in
the abandoned trenches and dug-outs
left by the enemy"
In order to cope with the situation
the Methodists have arranged to open
relief stations at Ypres, st. Quentin,
Montdidier, Belgrade and other points.
A full contingent Of physicians,
nurses, directors and social workers
will be sent abroad as soon as they
can b found.
The Church has fund of $4,000, 900
for European construction work. This
will be spent in Servia, France, Bel.
Rium, Poland and Bohemia.

20 years in handling rubber.
Each is a master of his craft.
And the new ideas they bring to
the attention of Brunswick direc-
tors receive sincere consideration.
Every proved betterment Is
adopted unanimously.
The Brunswick Tire is a combi-
nation of acknowledged features
plus Brunswick standards Of manu-
facture.
The result is super-tire, The like
of which you have never known be-
fore. The kind of a tire you will
gladly join in welcoming.
Yet Bruhswicks cost no more
than ike-type tires.
Try ONE Brunswick. We prom
ise a surprise. And we feel certain
that you will want ALL Bruins
wicks.
Then good tires will have a new
meaning to you.

In England at the present time
there are 1,SS8,000 more females

The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1919-12-04

In every great tire factory, the
chief question is: "How much can
we give for the money! And the
product depends on the policy
adopted.
Every man who has become ac-
quainted with Brunswick Tires
knows that Brunswick standards
are again evident. This famous con"
Germ noted as leader in every
line it entered since 1845-has once
more proved that it's policy is right.
A perfect tire is simply a matter
of knowledge and standards and
skill. No secrets nor patents pre-
vent making an ideal tire.
But standards come first. For in
tire making there is vast room for
skinping, for subtle economies, tor
hidden shortcomings. Makers with
out the highest standards don't.
build high-grade tires.

tire makers includes brilliant statt

PASTOR FINDS
BIG EXPOSITION
BEYOND TELLING

ssThe daily program is so filled
with events that it is impossible to
enjoy them all and it is hard to de-
eide Just which ones would afford the
most profit. So you see 1 may decide
to extend my educational vacation
longer than had planned for there is
10 much to see"
This is the way Rev. Guyton Fisher
pastor of the First Methodist church
who with Mrs. Fisher, has been at
tending the Methodist Centenary eel
ebration at Columbus, Ohio, closes a
letter, copies of which were received
bv various members of his congrega-
ton today. The letter said nothing
further about coming home. Here Is
the remainder of it:
"Well / am here.
"'Without further introduction /
must say that this is some exposition.
I had no idea when | left home that
I was coming to a celebration OF this
magnitude. 1t is not possible to spend
a single day here without adding
greatly to ones knowledge. Each of
the MANY exhibit palaces is tremen-
dously worth while and a day spent IN
anv one of them is almost as good as
a months tour of the particular
country for which the building is
named. The best and most interesting
exhibits from Africa, India, China,
MALAYSIA, Latin America, Korea, Phil
ippines, Hawaii, and other countries
have been brought to Columbus Tor
this exposition.
"At least a half day should be
spent in each one of the exhibit pal
aces. In addition to the exhibits out
door events of the greatest interest
are offered daily and although 1t IS
enlightening to visit the China ex-
hibit-for example-and see how the
Chinese live, it is difficult TO resist
the temptation to go out in the open
and watch the aerial gymnastics OF
army aviators who come here almost
daily. Pageants, parades, band con-
certs. stereopticon views shown on
the largest screen in the world, Won
derful musical programs, Wild West
exhibits and many novel entertain
ments which | did not expect to see
are claiming my attention.
"The Wayfarer is the most gor-
geous religious pageant ever pre-
sented. In this great pageant there
are $500 participants and an off
stage chorus of 1000 voices. The
scenic effects are beyond my powers
of description. The music is beauti-
full and inspiring. This pageant alone
is w"~'h the entire visit to Columbus.

: FRECKLES
Don't Hide Them With a Veil; Remove
Them With 0thine-DOuble

This preparation for the removal OF
freckles is usually so successful in
removing freckles and giving clear,
beautiful complexion that it is sold un-
der guarantee to refund the money if it
fails.
Don't hide your freckles under a
veil; get an ounce of Othine and re
move them. Even the first few appli-
cations should show wonderful ira-
provement, some of the lighter freckles
vanishing entirely.
Be sure to ask the druggist for the
louble strength 0thine; it is this that
sold on the money-back guarantee.

RECITAL AT HIGH
SCHOOL GREAT SUCCESS

A large and appreciative audience
greeted two Americus artists who ap-
peared together in recital last night
sponsored by the Music Study club.
The auditorium was attractively dec
GRATED and pretty young girls acted
as ushers. Miss Susan Stallings and
Miss Melva Clark entertained the
audience for an hour and a half
both receiving repeated encores from
a delighted audience. Miss Clark's
flexible and exquisitely clear soprano
voice was at its best and it's range
was displayed to splendid advantage
by the selections she gave. Among
number of songs, perhaps ga Re
quest" sung with the utmost SYM
pathy was most enjoyed. Miss Stall
lings' readings include large roper
toire, ranging. from grave to gay,
from lively to severe. In a scene
from "Green Stockings" she kept the
audience intensely amused while her
rendition of 'Paola and Francesca"
revealed the true artist. AS the Gyp-
sy Girl-an interpretive dance in cos
tume-she greatly pleased her audi
ence and her portrayal of "Joy",
danced with the happy abandon of
child at play, was a beautiful thing
to see. Altogether the recital was a
wonderful success and a source of
great pleasure to those who attend

FARMERS AWAKE
TO VICI0USNESS
OF CIR. AFT B. BILLS
Leaguers, Intent as Ever on Pro-
gram, Insist on Fair Play
for Everyone

Mandan, N. D., March l9.-W. H.
Stutsman returned yesterday from
speaking tour in the eastern part Of
the state, where he had been talking
&c farmers and business men on the
measures passed by the last legislature.
and he declares that the farmers arc
thoroughly aroused over the nerve Of
the socialist bosses Of the Nonpartisan
league in claiming that such bills as
the administration bill, the educational
bills and, the printing graft bills were
what the farmers wanted, and league
legislation. ~. ...s,i. ~, ,...,...... ..:..
This matter they claim had never
been submitted to them. They have
voted for terminal elevators and n
state owned mill, and they mean to
have it, but they are not going to turn
over twenty millions to one man like
Gov. Frazier, who has been satisfied
to let bank promoters milk the farm
crs as they did in Barnes county.
All this talk in the league papers
of the crowds that are turning out
to endorse" the measures passed by
the legislature is largely bunk. In
the first place they are not getting
the crowds and in the next place most
Of the farmers who attend these meet
ings come to get some information as
to the legislation passed, but they are
given no satisfaction They are told
OF some Of the good points, of the
beauties Of, owning your own home,
but they are urged not to; sign any
referendum petitions, for they don't
want the farmers to take time TO look
into these ubiquitous measures.
They are also pricking up their. ears
at the position taken BY four state Off

voters and defeated, BY them. y I'%IE y
There is little question says Mr..
