CHESTS SECOND COMING
 THEME OF PRIESTS SERMON


 The nearness of the end of the ecclesi- astical year-Advent begins Nov 2Sth- inspires the Catholic church to direct the attention of the faithful at this season to the consideration of the four great sub jects-death, judgment, heaven or he'll Preaching at the high mass in St Pat ricl's church Sunday, Rev Daniel F. Sul- livan chose for his theme the second com ing of Christ.
 The first coming of the Saviour was long expected and epochal, for the repro batiOn of many who had forsal1en Gods ways. So, too when Christ shall keen the promise of the scriptures and shall come to judge the living and the dead, memorable justice in rigor will occupy the bench upon which now sits mercy in com passion unlimited.
 What then will become of sinners? in- quires St. Augustine. Repentance will then be too late and the preacher graph ically described the hopelessness of the state of those who have been deaf to the warning to turn from ways of evil. He laid stress upon the fact that every priest of the Roman Catholic church voices over and over again the admonitions of the church, cites the promises of holy scrip. ture, that after death shall come judg. ment, that in the justice of God there | must be strict punishment for wrong. doing; that while the good will be re- warded, sinners as certainly may expec the doom of he'll No more severe repro | bati9n awaits any offender than tha | which bad Catholics are laying un fol | themselves, through their carelessness, tn, scandal of their lives, their negligence il | the practice of the obligations of thei religion For such the judgment mus prove most appalling. in that day of ter l TOT when men will be held to account fo 1 every word, every thought every deed | which shall be no longer secret, bu known to the whole world
 Now is the acceptable time. now is tn 1 day of salvation, quoted the preacher ! while exhorting his hearers not to defe ! the time of repentance. if they would b numbered with the friends of God on tha {; dread day which all know is certain t, l come

LITE OF JOSEPH SHOWN

\ 4 l. N1s Ns Il
 larger number than for many months attended the Y. NJ c. A. meeting Sunday afternoon at o'clock, when moving pie lures of Joseph in Egypt were shown. These picture the story true to the Bible narrative, including the following: Illus trating his brothers throwing him into the pit and selling him to the passing mer- chanemen, and how when he arrived in Egypt he almost immediately came into favor with the .iing; his interpretaton of dreams, and when the famine came in the country where Joseph's father and broth CTS were, the father sent his sons to Egypt to ask for food, and how Joseph, being in a place of power in Egypt, gave them food to take back, and how finally they recognized their brother and forgive | ness was given by Joseph for all the wrongs his brothers had done to him. Roy E. Keller, the county '. N. C. A. | secretary, gave a brief and interesting | talk and said among other things ''TEe | story of Joseph is fascinating to me and | has in it many lessons for all of US you l remember that his brothers were very i unkind to him, and because of their jeal- ousy of him cast him into a pit and after wards sold him to Some traders passing on their way to Egypt. A lesson we get from this experience Of Joseph is that you cannot keep a good man down God was with him and he was bound to Or ercome difficulties, and so it is with any man, ii we bust trust to God and do our best. In Joseph's experience in Egypt he demon strated that he made himself valuable 1 wherever he was, in the kings court ol l in the prison house his ability was recog- nized and rewarded. Joseph did not trust to luck but trusted in his heavenly Fa. ther He always showed a spirit of un. sel1ishness. always ready to help the othel fellow. He realized that God had a plac, for him and he tried his best to fill tha place. God likewise has a place for ever. boy and every man, and it should be ou
 aim to find that place and fill it to GU best ability"

DANIELS WARNS PARTY
TO Be CONSTRUCTIVE
Must Appeal to National Conscience,
Says Navy Secretary, Ar
irving on Coast.

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal. June 27.-
"The Democratic convention must do
something constructive II It is to be
victorious In 1920" Secretary OF the
Navy Daniels declared last night
when he arrived here on board the
u. s. S. New Mexico.
"The Democratic convention must
do something that will appeal to the
national conscience and the nation
resolve that the fruits OF war shall
not be lost" the Secretary said.
1--WE must conduct this consention
in such a manner that the Demo
cratic party will live up to the expec-
tations and the highest standards of
American Idealism."
The Secretary's statement, while
not specific in its wording, indicates
that he will insist that the conven'
ton that no action in opposition TO
the Presidents stand on the League
OF Nations.
e Secretary Daniels refused to make
any conjectures as to the Presidential
nominee, but declared he would await
the formation of platform before
attempting to pick the nominee. He
urged strongly. however, that the
convention take care that the Demo-
cratic ticket might be well balanced.

rector OF legislation. Benjamin c,
Marsh. The candidate specifically is
asked to make clear whether he
favors turning over TO private in

ment operation of the railroads:

AMERICAN WOMAN
CAPTURED BY TURKS
State Department Will Demand
That Mrs. Paul klson, U. S.
Missionary, BE Released.

Confirmation OF the report that Mrs.
Paul Nilsson. an American woman. Is
held captive by the Turks at Tarsus'
In Cilicia. has been received at the
State Department from Mrs. Wilson's
father. II. A. Fischer. OF Wheaton Col
lege. at Wheaton. Ill. ..
The Department. also received the
following from Charles A. Blanchard
president OF Wheaton College: mrs.
Paul Nilsson. nee Harriet Fischer
alumna OF this institution. has been
captured by the Turks somewhere
near Tarsus. She is the daughter OF
Prof. Fischer. and we earnestly re-
quest our State Department TO secure
her release"
The State Department has therefore
cabled it's high commissioner at Con-
stantlnople 20 lay the matter immedi-
ately before the Turkish foreign Of
nee and TO demand the release or Mrs.
Nilsson, who is a missionary and for
that reason in addition 20 her Amer
lean citizenship entitled to speciai
consideration.
The Turkish Nationalist soldiers
who are responsible for the De
tention OF Mrs. Nilsson are under the
control OF the government at Con-
stantlnopie. and Will doubtless re-
spopd at once for the release OF the
captive. Mrs. Nilsson could not De
d on any other charge than that OF
political activity and that Is dis
counted here as utterly improbable.
In any event she should be released
pending any investigation.
