METHODISTS SHOULD
GATHER new ZEAL
Centenary an Inspiration Says
OF. Fisher.

Dr.. Fred Fisher of New York, who
has been assistant executive secre-
tary of the Methodist Centenary
drive, has turned his entire organize
ton to the job of mobiiizing Method
ism in Columbus June 20 to July ID.
In outlining the campaign he has
placed before $4,000 committeeman of
the Methodist Church. he says: Eve
must stress four things. First, this
will be a big Victory Celebration.
The Methodists of the United States
have lived more in the past year than
in any 10 previous years of their ex-
istence Now is the time for them
to get together and celebrate their
victory.
I'm the second place, this is an OPP
portunity for Methodists to have Wis
ualized the scenes and activities OF
which they have been talking for the
past year, but of which they have no
personal knowledge OF these $4,000
men. only negligible per cent has
ever had the opportunity of going
abroad At the celebration they can
get the trip around the world at their
convenience.
Third, this Is the time to finish
the job to gather inspiration and in
formation to enable the organized
workers in the church to carry out
the program which has been mapped
out for the next four years.
Fourth, and most important of all,
If the Celebration realizes the ideals
which those who are back of it hold,
it must be the inspiration for plan
ming work for the next century. AS
we look upon the marvels that have
been accomplished we should gather
new faith and new zeal for enter.
prises that can be measured only in
terms of another century. We must.
in a word. weld ourselves together in
a great spiritual purpose to strike
the bulls eye
DR.. Fisher indicated that $50 train
ed executives. in addition to the 7S,-
900 volunteer workers. will stimulate
interest in the Centenary Celebration
during the next six weeks.

Chronic Constipation.

Perhaps you have never
thought Of it, but this dis
order is due to a lack of.
moisture in the residual mat
ter Of the food. If you will
drink an abundance of water,
eat raw fruits and take lots
of outdoor exercise, you may
be able eventually to over
come it entirely. In the
meantime use the most mild
and gentle laxatiyes. Strong
and harsh cathartics take to
much water out of the system
and make a bad matter worse.
Chamberlains Tablets are ca
sy and pleasant to take, and
most agreeable in effect.

city, and the subjects Of the sur
prise party received large number
of fine gifts of silver. All of the
children of the couple were home

good time. A photograph was Ia

TO DESTROY SCOT

Chimneys and fues often become
clogged with SCOT, which sometimes
results in the burning up OF bull
ding. The old remedy to remove
the SCOT as a fire preventative mea-
sure was to throw salt on the fire.
The best way to get rid OF SCOT
clogged hues and chimneys is to
burn your old worn out dry cell
batteries. This is an easy matter
and very efficient. Merely get a
good hot fire going, knock the pitch
out Of the top Of the batteries, as it
may make a clinker, then throw the
old batteries on the fire, open the
lower draft, and the damper in the
chimney. This causes the batteries
to burn quickly and the zinc and
o ther ingredients used in the cells,
having chemical affinity for car
bon dioxide [soot] quickly converts
it into gas.
If this is done whenever batter
les are changed on the gas engine,
tractor, motor car or telephone, the
chimney and pipes Of the stove OF
furnace, will be kept practically
sootless, and at no expense, since
batteries that are worn out are
worthless for any other purpose.

BUILD NOW!

Cutting down production, pro-
ducing less food, less clothing, less
fuel, never has and never will re-
duce prices. Increase production
is the answer to the question Of
how we can reduce living costs. We
must have production if we are to
have lower living costs. In modern
industry production is stimulated
by construction. Building is a ba-
sic industry. If you build ashome
you make business for more than a
hundred correlated and contribu-
ting industries. Each building erec-
ted sends its wave Of demand thru
the industrial organization, from
the ditch diggers to the bank presi-
dents and back, and, by wayof pay
envelopes to the ditch digger again.
An Immediate resumption of bull
ding activities will do more than
any one thing to stimulate general
business and accelerate the transit
ton of industry from war demobili-
cation to the peace normal. Con-
struction stimulates production--it
creates the demand-and production
must increase until it reaches the
volume production necessary to
decrease unit costs before prices are
lower.
Assist business and serve your
own and the Nations interests

night, the stage as well as the
body OF the house, by an audi
cnce OF uncommon type. A quartet
OF singers from the Sistine Chapel,
Rome. making a first appearance in
America, attracted hundreds OF de-
vout people, many priests among
them, who are not habltual attend
ants at concerts. There was Bra-
cious greeting OF the visitors as they
came upon the stage, they were
heard with respectful attention
throughout, and they were applauded
generously. At no time was there a
marked arousement Of emotion, or Of
artistic appreciation.
The singers were Alessandro Gabri-
ell, soprano; Luigi Gentili. contralto;
Ezlo Cecchlni, tenor. and Augusta
Dos santos, basso. Most of the music
was unaccompanied. but sometimes
the singers were sustained by Alberto
Csmetti, at the piano or the organ.
The programme was divided between
religious and secular works. The
quartet wore the vestments OF the
church while singing excerpts from
the masses, which included Iommel-
LIS "Alleluja" and compositions by
Vittorla, Iannacconi, and Perosi.
| Conventional evening clothes were
worn for the singing OF madrigals by
Palcstrina, Lasso, Antolisei, Muller
and Marchetti.
The singers had been well drilled.
showed musical understanding and
achieved some pleasing effects al
though none that was extraordinary.
Naturally, the voice of the soprano
aroused the most curiosity. II was
sometimes off pitch, and often was
marred by a tremolo. The other
voices were not free from the latter
fault. The basso gave the greatest
sa atisfaction.
Nina Tarasova, the little Russian
singer who appeared at the very END
OF last season and made most or u.s.
who were tired, sit up and take no.
tice, began the recital season at car
negie Hall on Saturday night. An au-
dience that fairly packed the big audi
torium hailed and acclaimed her.
That her own countrymen and women
werc in a vast majority was made
evident by the way they shouted at
her and begged her to sing this or
that Russian song. But others, not
OF her people. found that her art
vas as true and her personality as
magnetic as when first she disclosed
trem to us. She suffered less by
abandoning the intimacy OF smaller
house than was to be expected.
Before a curtain with a frieze paint
ed by herself. in a handsome costume
as a Russian boy, Miss Tarasova sang
Russian folk songs that ran a gamu'
| of emotions from the grave and SOM
bre to the gay and the broadly hui
morous. They included MY Coun-
try" Song of the VolKa." my
Child" Lullaby and "Mother-in-
Law" of which excellent transla'
tions into English had been made by
| Cecil Cowdrey and Sigmund Spaeth
"Woof'' and Comm Through tn,

in English. She was assisted by Max

solos found much favor.
