After digging the post holes, place
the posts in the center of the holes
and hang the gate on the hinge hooks.
Latch the gate and set the post and
the gate in correct position as they
should be to work properly after the
concrete is in.
To hold the gate and posts in posi-
ton, use wooden braces on each side
and put block under the latch end
Of the gate to hold it up, then stretch
wire between the tops of the posts
to prevent spreading. Put a small
wedge in the latch so that it will work
easily, yet positively.

HOW TO HANG A GATE

sition just as you want them to re-
main, fill in the post holes with con-
crete being careful not to disturb the
position of the posts, then put il the
post braces and braceblocks and leave
alone until the concrete is thoroughly
hardened.
Another good way is to cut two
2 by as just the right length to hold
the posts proper distance apart.
Then midway between the posts Of
wood, pass a wire around the posts
and twist it to good tension. The wire
will pull the posts toward each other
and the sticks will hold the posts the
proper distance apart. If you are care
full, you will get a good fit.

Fourth Quartery Confer

Monday. Our Official Board of

went TO be present, for it is
the last conference in pastoral
year.
Little Oliver Oberg was real
sick the last few days. We
hope for his speedy recovery.
We are glad to learn that
our clever friend, II. c. John
son, is going to move back to
Shiloh community in the near
future. That means one more
to help fight Satan and his
forces and help build up
Shiloh community, We arc al
ways glad to see men like Fro.
Johnson move in or commun-
ity--men that stand for good
churches and schools and good
roads and a clean, cOngenial
community.
The time is soon coming or
rather is at hand at Shiloh
when the man who is a slack
er in the promotion of Gods
Kingdom and says, "Let the
preacher work like | do" finds
himself lonesome and out OF
place. He should move on down
the line and find his kind. The
people of Shiloh believe in pay

FIRST TASTE.

Paris, March 18-Children born in France since the beginning of the war have just made a glorious discovery. They have tasted chocolates. In a congested quarter of Paris writes an Associated Press correspondent, a line stretching for more than a hundred yards wanted a chance to enter a grocery store. Four policemen were keeping order among the crowd and women were actually struggling for a place in the line.
 What are they fighting for?" a policeman was asked.
 The store Is selling a quarter of a pound of chocolate to each one" re- sponded the officer. That Is the reason why you see so many women bearing their children in arms. They are allowed half & pound then"
 The correspondent asked one of the women who had with her a fine child and was stubbornly holding her place on the slippery, slushy sidewalk whether she thought 1t was wort while to risk pneumonia in order to get half a pound of chocolate.
 You see" she replied. this baby has never yet tasted chocolate

Belgian Delegate
 At Peace Table
 Is Beau BrumInel

Paris, March 1S-Top hats and morning coats are commonly worn a: the Peace Conference. Although tor hats made their reappearance in Paris on Arrnis1ce Day, it was not until President Wilson arrived that they really began to flourish. Tho President was never seen on the street without his. According to French observers, he was one of the most carefully dressed of all the delegates One has said that he never saw d f1ock coat sit so well on man as on MT Wilson.
 To M. Hymans. one of the Belgian delegates, is awarded the palm of be- ing the Beau Brummel of the con- ference. A newspaper writer says of him: Tt is meant as a compliment to him to say he has the appearance of not having stepped out of a band box. but out of q tailor's window The crease in his trousers is in4nacu- late; his morning coat Is remarkable for its beautiful tapering. and his collar and tie are in perfect taste"
 The morning coat is worn even by Ernir Feisaai, son of the King of the HedJaz, along with his white turban embroidered with gold. William Martin, master of ceremonies at the conference. wears his morning coat unbuttoned. So does Premier Lloyd George. but MT. Bonar Law puts the buttons of his to their intended use.

 FOR CHAUTAUQUA

The demand for Chautauqua course tickets has been large. It is believed the capacity of the High School hall will be taxed for some of the fine things in this course, perhaps for all The more the program is studied, the more attractive it is seen to be. There is not a cheap thing on it in any sense except that of the continued low scale of prices.
 Busy business men and busy house hold women cannot afford to pass by this opportunity.
 Some busy people will be glad to know that, if they missed the chance to secure tickets on Sunday on ac- count of the rainy weather, they will be able to get their turn at the best seats in the house, by going with eith- CT Teceipt-tickets or cash to the First Methodist church, corner of Fairfield avenue and Broad street, between s and 1 o'clock, Tuesday. After 1 o'clock a second-best chance will be open at Chamberlain & Shropshire's on Cannon street, where the chart will remain until next week Monday Orders may also be sent by mail to Rev. R. H. White, secretary, either a 4S1 Wood avenue, or at the First Methodist church, provided fifteen cents is added to cover return regis tered postage. Mail allotnents will be made immediately after the allot- ments to those that appear in person at the church tomorrow morning.
 If some can attend only the even- ing lectures and concerets-Baum- gardt, The KaItenborn Chamber Con cert, Rockwell Potter, AlIessandro Carasso on Russia and Bolshevtsn, the Locas Male Quartet-altogethe the best way Is to get reserved seat in advance and make sure of a. first class place waiting for one. These evening entertainments alone would, bought singly under ordinary condi- tons, require an outlay of at least four dollars. It should be remem- bered. too, that the course ticket Is transferable among different mem bers of q family their friends.

Behind TIE F0OtIights
PARK

Two splendid pictures are being shown at the Park theatre the first three days of this week One is a five act comedy that Is wholly de- Hghtful. It Is refined, clean humor admirably put over and every mem- Der of the company is an artist The second Is the dramatization of Selma Lagerlof's beautiful story, '"The Girl From the Marsh Croft" pr. Lagerlof Is the only woman who has won the Nobel prize for literature, and the story itself is a masterpiece.
 The company presenting these pie lures is Swedish, and the locale is in that country. The system by which pictures are produced there is vastly different than that followed in America. There, the person best fitted for the part plays it. Here we have the star system which often works out very badly. Instead of hav- ing one person in a company who is an artist the Swedish method provides an artist for every part.
 The Girl From the Marsh Croft is q story of peasant life in Dalecarlia, and the pictures were taken in that section of the country Both interior and exterior scenes were most at tractive and the fine attention to de- tail is noteworthy. The story is most intense and highly dramatic and is splendidly done. There is not the slightest bit of over acting and the naturalDess Of the actors is not the least attractive feature. It would be impossible to award too high praise to these pictures.
 Picture lovers should not miss the opportunity to see two of the best pictures that have been seen in this city in months. They are most re- freshing in that they present a fn- ished production in every particular.
