How Diphtheria is Contracted.

One often hears the expression,
My child caught severe cold,
which developed into diphther-
ia" when the truth was that the
cold had simply left the little one
particularly susceptible to the
wandering diphtheria germ. If
your child has a cold when diph-
liberia is prevalent you should
take him out Of school and keep
covered, as there is a hundred
times more danger of his taking
diphtheria when he has a cold.
When Chamberlain s Cough Rem
cry is given it quickly cures the
cold and lessons the danger Of dip
liberia or any other germ disease
being contracted

WHAT SHALL I DO WITH
 JESUS? S?"-REV. S- O COKE

1 And what shall l do with Jesus?" ] Taking the above question from Maj
 thew xxvii:27 as his text, Rev Simeon o. CoXe, pastor of the Handley Memo
 rial Presbyterian Church, in an eloquent sermon before his congregation yester- day declared that it was this one ques- tion that was bothering the mind and conscience of man today despite mans efforts to evade it.
 MT. Coxe told of the great trial when Jesus appeared before Pontius Pilats and that great ruler refused to inter vene in His behalf, washing his hands before the multitude and declaring that the blood of the righteous man would not be on shis hands. When the people gathered before Piate and asked him which of the two, Jesus or Barra bas, ! the robber, would he allow to go free, Pilate told them that Barrabas might go free, but that the same time the ques-
 tion arose in his mind and he asked, What shall I do with Jesus?"
 That is the greatest question of the ages, What shall I do with Jesus? <" declared MT. Coxe. Tt has been an- swered many ways, but I dare say that there is not man woman through out the civilized world today who at some time did not ask themselves this question. Plate struggled between the will of his conscience, which told him Lo diIO" JeSuS to go ullHafHeu, ana t0S duty that seemed to him to be requisite
 in the position that he held. But he
 arrived at the conclusion that the best
 thing to do was to shift the responsi-
 bility from his own shoulders to those of the people, so he washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am in
 nocent of the blood of this innocent per son. See ye to it.. But Plate was
 wrong; he could not shift the responsi-
 bility. There is no such thing as shift
 ing of responsibility.
 Thus many of us deal with the ques-
 tion today. We attempt to evade it.
 But we cannot evade it. We must an swer it. It is the inevitable question We are witnesses as were the witnesses be-
 fore Pilate. some of us unwilling wit nsses, yet all of us witnesses. Although
 the witnesses of the world may be un- willing they are nevertheless mostly on the side of Jesus, for what worthy man has ever lifted up his voice against Jesus?
 All around we see the work ot Jesus. Nature in this summers cloak ot such rare beauty reminds us of Jesus. Civilization in it's continual victories calls to the mind of the thinker but one
 word--Jesus. All of these wonderful things, nature, civilization and success of mans endeavors, remind us of Jesus, for we know that he is the maker of these things and is responsible for them. And thus being constantly reminded of Jesus, we cannot escape that greatest of all questions, What shall I do with Jesus?' And we must answer this ques tion, for all of the waters in all of the seas is not sufficient to wash our hands of Jesus"

PRINCIPLE OF BALANCE"
 SERMON-DR. EDMONDS

The Principle of Balance" was the topic of Dr. Henry M. Hdmonds' mes sage to the Independent Presbyterian congregation yesterday morning The sermon was built around Paul's words Work out-your own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who work eth in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure" An appeal was made for a liberation of the dynamic forces of Christianity in each individual life by positive cooperation with God in His divine law governing spiritual develop ment and growth
 Dr. Edmonds said in part: We are not table to tell where God leaves off and where we begin, but we do know that all that works out of us has been worked into us God in us is not an ar- tesian well; we have to pump. We work out what He has worked into us. He has not put a deposit within us for all times; as we begin to work out, He begins and continues to work in again
 "Of course good and bad influences are always getting in. Still this principle of balance that we see in nature and In Gods way with individuals has direct and practical application in our homes. There is a working out of your child what is working in you. The dishonesty of your every thought, the lack of will ingness, of control and sweetness on your part is being worked into your child even while it sleeps. No wonder in later years the boy and the girl cause you grief and trouble, On the other hand. God gives you wonderful chi.- dren when you by His grace have been lovely, sweet and like Mary the hand maiden of the Lord
 Here also is your argument for God. The world with all it's greatness and glory and mystery-we must have Some thing to balance it. And that some thing is God. Where there has been so much worked in their must be worker
 in. Then when we study Christ in the written record and in the faces and lives of people, and see all of the Christian virtues. we put Christ into one pan of the balance and then find it nee essary to put something into the other to balance it. Again that something is God, for only God can explain Jesus.
 Tn all your effort after character and victory remember it IS God working down underneath as we'll as you work ing on the outside. You ale reaching down and calling on the infinite re- finite resources of God to be what you aspire And in your daily life when you need help for the very present, reach> down and call on Him. He will give you strength so that yoI shall not fail in community, family or personal For it is God who worketh in you. And as Hhe works in, you must work out if there is to be spiritual growth and development of character"

"GOD'S LABOR PROBLEM"
 SkkMON-DK MACSpORRA

A the First Church yester- oay morning the pastor. Dr. G. A. Mac kporran spoke from the text in Isaiah, ''Whom Shall l Send?" His application of the text to the present time was made in striking manner and showed insight into the average mans attitude to call for service. He said in part;
 Men will give nearly everything they have except themselves. To the appeal Of God. when they hear the cry, Whom V ill l send? they reply, Lord, here am T. send somebody else who isn't as busy as am. God must find men and women who will receive from above power and wisdom and leadership and then carry it forth to save the world.
 What is the universal prayer of civ- flized mankind just now? It is this: More brains, good Lord. Give us men big enough and intelligent enough to put the wheels of our ditched engine and wrecked Fars back on the track Give us leaders Who have sense enough to recognize peace Nhen they see it and know how to make |. Deliver us from becoming victims of politicians, bosses, agitators who are not wicked but who are increditably ig pUrant
 Our industrial civilization is breaking down because it requires bigger type of man, d man of vision, of broad, deep sympathies and large intelligence, and we are not producing that type of man. Our most serious and alarming shortage Of production is not in food and clothes. but in men
 God could use magic and miracle. He could coerce and compel. But that is not His way. Inspiration is not mechan- teal or magical. It is the response of the whole Snan to tie call of God. God can not use anybody who happens to come along in His business any more than you can in yours. There is a practical heresy among people that is doing more harm to the cause of our Lord than any other They seem to think God delights in ig- norance and stupidity, that God is pleased when good, common place folk whom He has created for their own particular place in the scheme of things offer to be His prophets and ambassadors. That is why we fail jn His work.
 We will never solve our labor prob lems until we devote ourselves to solve Gods. The power and wisdom and lead ership we need to save not only ourselves but our children and our children's chill

 HISTORY OF PROVISION
 The history of the provision in Ten nessee's constitution, as you perhaps know, grew out of the outrageous man. ner in which the ratification of the fif- teenth amendment was forced upon Ten nessee. As soon the people obtained control of their government after the reconstruction period and held a consti- tutional convention, they incorporated this most salutary pr&ision.
 Aside from the merits of the suffrage ql estion I am at a less to know how any member of the legislature of the state of Tennessee could in the late special ses- sion support ratification, whatever his conviction might be upon woman sui frage, that legislature having been elect ed prior to the submission of the An tkony amendment. The\ action was cer- tainly in tte face of the provision of the Tennessee constitution.
 The demOcrauic uatfona1 committee evidently did not take into consideration this provision of the Tennessee constitu- tion when t urged upon Tennessee to ratify the nineteenth amendment; and as above stated. the~e were certainly very few members in that body who kne" anything of the Tennessee provision. I certainly for one had no knowledge of It.

.HINKLE'S VOICE
CHARMED HEARERS
Group of Songs in Eng
lish Was the Most
Appreciated

The only adverse criticism heard
last night after the concert given
by Florence Hinkle for che Wo-
mans club in the First Methodist
Episcopal church, was the regret
voiced by a club member that so
much of the program had consisted
of songs in Italian and French.
That the fair critic was not alone
in harboring the idea was shown
by the evident disposition on the
part OF the audience to mark time
until the second group OF songs
were sung and the English songs
begun, when there was notice
able warming up.
Miss Hinkle's voice Is a true
lyric soprano, Of lovely quality and
she has 1t under such control that
perfect Interpretation is always a
foregOne conclusion. After her
first song with its delightful dimin-
uendos, there was not any doubt
that perfect realization of the long
anticipated pleasure was to be the
reward of those attending.
Two songs especially found IA
vor with the audience, Little
Brothers. Lullaby" by Brock, and
Little Pickinninny Kid" by Guion,
both affording a fine opportunity
for the display of the warm, deli
cious tones of the singers lower
register, wherein she seems most
surely to reach the hearts of her
hearers. The song from the opera,
Tosca, left feeling of regret that
the program did not contain sew
eral more of such pretentious num-
bers. Miss Hinkle specializes In
oratorios and one or two of the
great arias would have been apPre-
ciated. However. the lighter num-
bers pleased immensely. Miss Flor
ence Scheib was the accompanied
and gave perfect satisfaction.
An audience that completely
filled the lower floor. the gallery
and overlooked into the Sunday
school room showed by unstinted
applause that insisted on several
encores that the efforts of the Mu-
sic department of the Woman's
club to provide the very best of at
fractions for the delectation OF
music lovers is appreciated. The
officers OF the Music department
who had charge of the arrange
ments are Mrs. Oliver A. Wood,
chairman; Mrs. Charles W. Wads-
worth, vice chairman; Miss Matte
Bentel, secretary. and Mrs. A. B.
Smith, treasurer. There was also
large list Of guarantors.
The stage was decorated with
ported palms, chruysanthemums
and other flowers. furnished for
the occasion by Hauge's. Miss
Hinkle was presented with cor
sage bouquet OF sweet peas from
Webcr's.
The other attraction 10 be-
brought to Fairmont by the Wo.
mans club will be Reinald War
renrath, who will appear in a song
recital on April 25. The original
date was Feb. IS, but that was
found to conflict with the Billy
Sunday meetings, hence the
change.
