inquiry she always gave response in
her weak, gentle voice that she was
still trusting in the Lord. We pray
ed with her often and sang songs of
hope and cheer. Often her eyes
would fill with tears of unspoken
sorrow as we sang, but at other
times they shone with undying hope
1t made our hearts ache to see one
so young and gentle called from her
little children and her home; but
our Heavenly Father knows-we
don't. She is gone, but just for a
little while; soon we shall join her

Are YOU GOING TO GET SQUARE?

You still owe your Government
for the protection of your lives and
homes. You owe it to the 1900 900
boys yet in France to care for them
and bring them home. You owe it to
the sick and wounded in the hos
pitfalls to care for them. The Gov
eminent asks you for a loan of
$4,000, OOO,OOO.00, which she will re-
pay with good interest. Are Won
going to help square up an honest
debt?
The Methodist Church expects
every member to do his duty for
the Government. For that reason
she has postponed the Centenary
drive from April 1920 till after the
Victory Loan campaign and will
make it May 1925. Combined

lsm's part of the call is $4,000 900

scorn the query!
You owe ourself and everything
you have to God. You have never
recognized it as you ought to have
done. Are you going to bring into
Gods treasury part of the tithes and
offerings. of which you have been
robblng Him all these years, by a
big, honest Centenary subscription
to the work of Salvation? This is
not a loan. 1t is a consecrated ef
tort by preachers and laymen to
make part payment during the
next five years of money they have
owed to God all the time. Yet God
promises to repay it with increase
thirty, sixty, and a hundred fold
so much that we shall not have
room to receive it!
lhls is not a financial movement
alone, but on its financial side it is
the biggest undertaking any church
ever entered into. It took COURAGE
and faith even to plan it! Do YOU
want your Church to do big things
for Christ, worthy of her name and
His Holy Cause, or do you want her
to continue to drag along with un-
concerned labors and shabby offer
ings?
There is big account against us
on Gods ledger; shall we try to
square it up? He doesn't ask what
we can't pay, but frankly forgives'
1t. You are going to die one of
these days soon; do you want to die
in debt? You can't settle the old
account then. Better get square

the other fellow believe that the
prospects were never brighter and
he will turn his money loose, his
neighbor will see that he is making

AUSTRIA Is FACING
FAMINE OF FUEL AND
FOOD FAMINE, REPORT

Vienna, Sept. 21.--Cool nights and
chill autumnal rains are beginning to
bring Vienna, and all Austria, face to
face with the fuel famine that looms
along with the food shortage. Today
this great city has a reserve of only
5000 tons. Not a hospital has been
able TO arrange its winter supply.
The government experts estimate
that with all available wood added to
the estimated coal supply, the Vien-
nese householder this winter may
have about 10 per cent enough fuel to
keep one cooking fire. No one talks
of heating. Warm houses and hot
water are among the other luxuries
unknown.
Czechoslovakia has coal for export
and contracts have been made by the
Austrians for all they can get, but the
delivery is slow and the whole matter
seems clouded with difficulties and
complications 1t is believed means

lied express trains that now run three
