How much should / give to
make this a better world?

"A report.
1t showed an income so large that his tax was
53s. And his total gifts TO church and charity for
the year were Sf48.
Think of thousands spent for Injuries and
pleasure for himself; and S148 to leave the world
little better than he found it
Most'of us do better than that; but not so very
much better.
Our average daily gift for all church causes is
less than spend for daily papers
less than local telephone call
less than third of the days car fare
less than cents day
No wonder that 80 % of the ministers of America
are paid less than $40 week No wonder that the
church hospitals turn away thousands of sick people
year. No wonder that China has only doctor for
every 4oO, 900 people No wonder that every church
board and charity society is forever meeting def
icts, forever passing the hat.
1t isn't because selfish: it isn't because
we don't want to help. It's just because one has
put up a great big program TO us, and asked
us to think of the work of the church in a system
attic busnesslike way.

UNION REVIVAL MEETINGS

UNION REVIVAL MEETINGS
The crowd at the union revival
meeting at the Presbyterian church
was not as large as usual last night
and the delegations did not show up
as we'll as heretofore, and all of this
was possibly due to the Farm, Home
and School Exhibit now on. in the
city for three days. g
Because, during the last days Of
this campaign, there will; be various
conflicts, it will be all the more nee
essary for faithfulness in attendance
upon the meetings on the part Of all.
The campaign is fast coming to the
last things. The final home prayer
meetings were held this morning.
At the service tonight, when Evan
gelist Linden will preach on the sub
ject, "The fight. with Self, or the inner
struggle" the guests will be the
Homesteaders, the Woman and Ben
Hur lodges, the Ladies Improvement
League and also the members and
constituency of the two Methodist
churches.
So many young people are beginn-
ing to show deepest consideration in
the investment of their lives in Christ
ian service, and no doubt the Sunday
morning service, when the opportunity
will be given these to make public
stand, will be mighty and searching
service, never to be forgotten by those
who attend. This service will also
be very vital in the fact that final
searching message on the secret Of a
happy Christian life will be delivered
by Evngelist Linden on the subject,
Hearing Gods Voice." 1t is hoped
that every member of the cooperating
churches will be surely present at
the service on Sunday morning, and
all others are most cordially invited.
The Boosters are preparing their
final program for Saturday evening,
and they will have their second re-
hearsal this week at the Presbyterian
church, tomorrow, Friday at $500 p.
m. The women of the churches haze
been meeting the past few days maxi
ing the costumes for this program and
the Boosters will shine again on Sat
urday night.
Great interest is being taken in the
sermon that is going to be preached
Sunday at. 800 p. m. on the subject
"Home Sweet Home, or Pa, Ma, and
the Baby" It will. no doubt, have
large hearing. and, a capacity crowd
q will fill the building.
