the theme "The Unanswered

Friday evening, North church.
Dr. Rees will address the women
on the theme "The -Four College
Chums."
At the mems meeting at the
North church Tuesday evening, Rev.
DR.. Francis A. Poole said it was a
distinct achievement when such a
gathering of men assembled at mid
week evening service. The scripture
was read by Rev. C. H. Morse and
the prayer was offered by Rev. DR..
E. w Sharpe. Mrs Rces sang a solo
and Carroll Montgomery presided at
the piano.
DR.. Rees took for his theme, "Does
it Pay to be a Christian" asking if it
paid in commercial life, in the So
cial life, in the educational life. The
most expensive investment is the fail
ure to be christian. The christian
character is the most valuable asset
in the commercial world. You cannot
meet competition without faith in Je-
sus Christ. 1t pays in the home. 1t
pays in the satisfaction of doing
right The day has gone by when
anyone need apologize for being a
christian. 1t will pay in the end when
you can say with Paul 81 have fought
the good fight
For your investment you get peace,
Joy and rest. Your dividends are not
quarterly, but continuous. At the
end the christian will hear the Mas
ter say, "Come, ye blessed of my
Father, inherit q kingdom"
Dr.. Rees had number Of gripping
Illustrations from his wide expert
ence and of personal testimony to the
value of being christian from many
many men in communities where he
had held gospel meetings. -

May BE BONES OF HEROES
Uncertainty as to Human Relics Re-
Gently Found Near the Famous
Alamo at San Antonio.

Recently workmen have unearthed
in a portion of the Alamo grounds at
San Antonio bones which may be those
of the heroes of Texas whose bodies
were cremated by the victorious hordes
under Santa Anna.
No effort was made to gather the
bones nor to remove them to the in
closure of the Alamo. They were per
mitted to remain where they were
found; and garage is to be built over
the spot, the ground where the dis
covery was made being outside the
walls and a part Of the property which
has gone to commercial use.
The bones were found some 200
feet south Of the wall Of the Alamo;
and the inquiry made has not fully de-
veloped whether they were those of
the Texans or whether they were those
of the Indians who were used to build
the ancient mission and who formed
the colony which the friars gathered
about them to till their fields and to
provide the food and the feed they re-
quired.-Houston Post.

PLAN UNIQUE FOREST SYSTEM
New Workers Aim to Make County
One Continuous Park, and Have
the Trees Pay Taxes.

To make the loafing acre work is
the plan Of Otsego county, New York
which has started campaign to plant
q forest of 100 acres on the waste
lands in each of the "a townships OF
that county.
The plans, says the New York Times
are to develop a county system similar
to the city park plan, with Its mar
monized system of connecting boule'
wards. The project involves the de-
yelopment of comprehensive highway
system.
The forests will be located SO that
they will serve as green nature sign
boards along the highways, to adver'
tise TO the world that the county mas
IT'S own forests, owned. planted and
maintained by the public for the fu'
ture generations.
AZ the trees mature they will pro-
vide in the future an income which
will mean an actual cash return 70
serve as an offset against taxation.
European towns often pay the cost OF
oneration of their government from
their forests, having no taxes, but this
requires q greater area Of forest than
is proposed for Otsego.
