Yank's Love Grammar.

A boy with the medical corps of the
American army of occupation in Ger
many wrote to his mother: "You see
a beautiful girl walking down the
street. IF she has silk stockings on,
she is feminine. If she is singular, you
become nominative. You walk across
to her, changing the verbal and then
become dative. If she's not objective,
you become plural. You walk home to-
gether. Her mother is accusative. You
become imperative. You go in and sit
down. The little brother is an indefi-
mite article. You talk of the future.
She changes to the object. You kiss
her and then she becomes masculine,
her father is present, things are tense
and you are a past participle.

Rasak and lagan grow on the island
of Simalu, off the coast of Sumatra,
in the Indian ocean. Rasak is a very
large and heavy timber and is consid-
cred next to teak in firmness, and last
ing qualities, says the American For
estry Magazine. 1t is a common sight
to see the trees 100 feet up without a
limb. Lagan is a softer timber. The
island is shaken about every IL days
by earthquakes of more or less intens-
ity. It is rare that a flower is seen on
the island. The town of Singabang is
maintained by the Holland government
and it has all modern improvements
The only white man is the governor
and there is not a Christian church on
the island.

ALDRICH UPPERCUTS

Speaking of some people who will
have nothing to do with the cam
paign because they do not approve
of his methods" Mr.. Aldrich said:
''Well, what have they been doing
for the last rs or 40 years? They
have surely had an opportunity to
work their methods If they have
not been able to do anything more
than they have accomplished, it is
only manly that they allow someone
else to try some other methods and
cooperate with him."

WEEKLY REVIEW OF
TABERNACLE CAMPAIGN
Services ALI Next week-Three
Services Announced for
Sunday
By Rev. G.. L. Powell.

The tabernacle sayings and doings
are now the talk of the town."
Opinions pro and con are being ex-
pressed everywhere and by every
one. Some "disapprove" and others
approve" Some are for and others
against. Some like Evangelist AL
drich and others do not. Some sheer
and others commend. And there you
have it. Rev. A. Lee Aldrich, how
ever, keeps at it, eternally at it, and
cares for neither the smiles nor the
frowns of anyone. Earnestly, sin
cerely, fearlessly, he breaches Jesus
to the crowds that attend the tab"
and many are nightly yielding them
selves to Him and taking a stand on
the Lords side. Mr.. Aldrich's
preaching is creating a tremendous
sensation" and people who have not
been near a church for years are at
tending the tabernacle meetings al
most every night.

great spiritual awakening is up
on us and God is, making
himself felt in convicting men and

GOES TO THE DANCE

One night last week in company
with some members of the evangelis-

dance at the armory. He went, of
course, to see the kind of stunts
pulled Off" In telling of his visit
he said that he was "sneered at,
glared at, and simpered at" although
he behaved like a gentleman and
neither said nor did nothing to of
fend anybody. One thing he saw
disguised him. It was a rather "eld-
erly gentleman trying to dance
with young girl whom he was prac-
tically carrying across the hall on
his knee. He warned mothers and
fathers against allowing their
daughters to attend such functions.
