Hallman Family Reunion

Sunday, Mar. 30th, 1919, was u grand
and glorious day in the home Of Mr..
and Mrs. John g. Hallman, a regular
red letter epoch in their lives, because
for good many years, although re-
unions have been many and often in
the family, always there would be one
or more absent ones and one or more
vacant chairs about the banquet table.
But on this occasion, every one of
the ten children were present and some
with their families, so that large and
happy group celebrated the day in the
way that such days are always cele-
brated, in being happy and joyful and
making each other happy and joyful.
Such was the spirit of this occasion,
and it is the Expositor's wish that
there will be many more reunions in
the Hallman family.
The names of the children we pub
Iish below:-Mrs. Selma Slosser, Yale;
Alvin and Edward, Of Chicago; Mrs.
Ida Mcintyre, Roseburg; Ira, London,
Ont; Alex, Windsor, Ont; Mrs. Manil-
la Harmer, Yale; Mrs. Verna Harding,
Melvin; Rawley g., Camp Custer, and
Harold, Yale.

THE House of Bondage"

Through special arrangement the
Princess Theatre will show that great.
est of all white slave pictures, "rhe
House of Bondage" on Tuesday, April
Sth. The story is taken from Reginald
Wright Kauffman's startling book and
is shown in six parts, with Lottie Pick
ford in the leading roll. The picture
is declared to be the greatest white
slave production ever shown, it being
powerful, full blooded sermon about
the worst of crimes-the white slave
traffic. This picture is to be shown TO
adults only, and no one under 16 years
years Of age will be admitted. 1t is
endorsed by social uplift workers. be-
cause it deals with the most vital sub
ject IN the world today, "rhe traffic in
girls" 1t deals with the white slave
question in manner which every one
who has read the daring book is fsmil-
lar with. 1t shows how the cadets of
these monarchs of shame go out into
the small towns and with their wiles
and suave g gentility lure girls out into
the broad pathways from which there
is no turning back.

WILL CLOSE SUNDAY
Collection at Three Services for Evangelist.
-Hofmeister Goes to Cleveland.


Ted Ii ofmeister, who has been in
our midst for the past four weeks, is a
revivalist of no mean ability. He
has convinced us that he is not afraid
to speak his convictions. He has
preac he'd on practically every phase of
life, and has shown the pitfalls of sin.
Mr.. Hofmeister shouldered the ex-
pense of this campaign without one
cent guarantee, and the budget has
been met by the offeriugs to date
There will be special offerings taken.
at the three services on Sunday for the
remuneration of the Evangelist, and
his friends are planning to make this
q liberal sum.
One of the ATTRACTIONS of the week
was the chorus of boys and girls which
appeared Friday night. Everybody
present enjoyed the program. The
Evangelist spoke on "Soap Bubbles" J"
which was very fitting address. He
said, "There are people who reagh out
AOL buC oOoP-bubOiOo VI mebcLlallbLus
and after they have gained everything,
must leave it behind when they die.
There are some fellows in Yale with
so much hog in their nature that they
are building wealth on the blood Of
labor and the tears of the widow.
Jesus said, Woe unto you, Scribes,
Pharisees and hypocrites, who devour
widows houses, and for pretense
make long prayers Some fellows
would tear the bed from under children
and turn the widow and her brood into
the street, while they sap the very blood
from their veins, and break the hearts
of poor humanity. l thank God that
there is a hell for such undesirables as
these hypocrites who, with their false
pretense of religion, endeayor to fool
the public"
Hofmeister fights sin like tiger,
and is the most fearless preacher ever
heard in our community. He goes
from our midst with the love and re-
spect of all who admire truth.
Many have responded to the call of
the, Evangelist and the results are very
gratifying.

Brockway Farmers Club

The Brockway Farmers Club held
its March meeting at the home Of Mr..
and Mrs. S. b. Barr. The Club sang
America" as the opening number.
This was followed by few introduc-
tory remarks by the president, William
Cavanagh. He spoke briefly regarding
the benefits to be derived from the
club and suggested ways in which its
meetings might be improved.
County Agent Brody then outlined
the drainage project which will be car
ried on in the county this year. and
discussed other current questions, in
cluding oat smut, spraying and mar
keting.
The next number was temperance
reading by Mrs. Connell. This was
very we'll rendered and emphasized the
vieiousness of the Beer and Wine
Amendment.
Miss Waldron next explained the or
ganization of the Home Nursing
Glasses, and gave very able talk on
"The Value of Milk as Food"
The part taken by the children was
also an interesting portion of the pro-
gram, and recitations by William Hod-
gins and Mildred Barr were much ap-
preciated as shown by the hearty ap-
plause.
One of the interesting numbers of
the day was a talk on Cooperative
Buying and Selling" by Charles Wilt,
president of the Brockway Agricultur-
al Association.
The "Question Box" concluded the
afternoons program and afforded ev-
eryone an opportunity to enter into the
discussion.
About fifty were in attendance and
a social good time was enjoyed by all.

CHURCHILL EXPLAINS PROPOSED
NATURALIZATION OF RAILROADS

LONDON, Jan. is. = Winston
Churchill, minister of munitions,
who announced the government
policy of Matchmaking British rail-
ways, explained to the Dundee
chamber of commerce the reasons
for the proposed step.
Owing to the enormous debt
with which the country has been
burdened by the war, he said, re-
lief measures on a big scale were
required.
"The three great parent factors
of a country's welfare" he con-
tinued, "are land, communication
and power, and the three children
are food, housing and manufac-
ture. SO long as the railways are
in private hands they may be used

a Flemish university at Client, re-
serving the details to the new
parliament to be elected later.
Pro-Germans and ''a~ctivists" who
supported the German scheme to
drive a wedge between the Flemish
and the Walloons in Belgium are
now ~ostracized socially. Many ar
rests have been made in Brussels,
Client and Bruges. The people of
Client divide their hatred and Bit
terness evenly between the Ger
mans and the. "activists." Bruges
is filled with a deep-rooted hatred
of everything German, while Brus-
sells ridicules both pro-Germans
and ''activists."
In Bruges 153 women who dealt
with Germans were beaten and
their hair was shorn. In Client
pro-Germans and "activists," both
men and women. were physically
punished.

tory. The present government,

lies, three liberals and three
socialists, is acknowledged every
where to be only a provisional
one, a government of transition.
A real government which will di-
rect the reconstruction of Belgium

1t is not expected that elections
can be held in less than six
months. Meanwhile the political
fight will be waged upon a basis
of universal suffrage-one man.
one vote. Before the war the
priests had four votes, land own
ers and mobiles as many votes as
they had estates in different prov
inces, and socialists and liberals
only one vote each. The social
lists we're mostly working men and
the liberals mostly professional
men. This enabled the Catholic
party to be in power for more than
40 years.

PARDON GOES TO
FRENCH HOSPITAL
COLORADO CONVICT MAKES
BREAK, is GASSED, WOUND
ED AND PARDONED

DENVER, Jan. IA. = A pardon
from Governor Julius C. Gunter of
Colorado frightened the outlook
for the new year for a soldier,
blinded and burned by German
gas, and who now is in a hospital
in France. The pardon, which
was signed to take effect Deem
Der 20, was for Warren Hazlett,
23 years old, formerly of this city.
The last of Hazlett came to the
attention of the governor when
the soldiers mother sent a letter
from him to the state pardon
board, of which the governor is
chairman, saying that he had been
in France for more than a year
and that he had met the Hun
like hundreds of thousands of 9TH
er brave Yanks. 1t told that he
had been gassed and wounded by
bullets, and added that he was
recuperating in a base hospital.
The letter was the first word of
Hazlett that had come to state
officials since, before the United
States entered the war, he had
failed to report as a paroled pris-
oner. The letter explained chat
he went to Kansas and that while
there, gripped by patriotism, he
had enlisted in the army under an
assumed name.
HaZlett was arrested here in
1916 after a store had been en-
tered ands was sent to the state
penitentiary to serve from one to
two years. He was paroled before
the expiration of his minimum
sentence. A short tine afterward
he failed to make his report.

Under the universal suffrage
system which would ~relegate priests
and land owners to the same cate
CORY as working men, doctors and
lawyers, it is asserted the Catholic
party may be placed in the minor
ity. Nevertheless, Cardinal Mer-
cier's great personality and the
energy he displayed in behalf of
Belgium during the war is said to
have greatly helped the cause of
the Catholic party.
One cause of bitterness and an
mostly in Belgium is the Flemish
movement, which now is practical
