UNION REVIVAL MEETINGS

The fourth and last week of the
union revival campaign at the Pres
bytal.an church opened very auspic-
iously last evening with one of the
pest crowds of the campaign. Evan
gels, Linden preached his amuse-
ment sermon, using the text, "Be not
deceis ed, God is not Knocked, for
whatsoever a man soweth, that shall
he also reap. With great array Of
facts, backing his statement, he
aacWed that 50 per cent of the ac-
tresses and actors were immoral, that
so per cent of the black leg gamblers
of the world learned to play cards in
Christian homes, and that 80 per cent
Of the girls now living in open
shame had the arms of man around
them tie frs time at a dance. He
was thus led to make the following
deductions:-Sow to the cards and
you will reap gamblers; sow to the
theatre, and reap moral degenerates;
SOW to the dance and reap fallen
| ,woa,en.
AT the service tonight, Wednesday,
the twin sermon to the Unpardon-
sble Sin sermon will be preached, unu-
der the subject. "The will nots of life,
becoming the shall nots." The spec
ial guests of the evening will be the

I Parents are requested to talk to
their children about taking up Christ
ian work as vocation. and ask them
to make an open public decision for
this work, at the service next Sunday
morning. The need is great for
ministers, missionaries, physicians
in the foreign field, pastors assistants,
and Christian workers of all sorts,
and so the young folks are asked to in
est their lives in this service for
Christ and the Kingdom
4 Since this campaign comes to a
close with the service on Sunday ev
ening, the request is made that all
stand by and thus help crown this
campaign with success.

THE HOME TOWN PAPER

How the heart grows soft and tender
while its columns you're perusing,
Every item is familiar, every name
you know full we'll.
And food Of recollection passes DER
you while you're musing
On the past, and weaves about you
an imaginative spell.
You can see the old home village once
again in fancy, seeming
To be clasping hand Of neighbor and
Of friend and relative;
And their faces rise before you as
you're idly, fondly dreaming
Der the little country paper printed
where you used TO live.
-Kansas Industrialist.

Ameriea's Telephone Achievements

France has not as many telephones
as Chicago. Greece has not as many
telephones as some of the largest
American office buildings. All
Europe has only one-third the tele-
phones that the United States has.
In twenty years the number of Bell
owned and connected telephones in
the Bell System has increased four
teen fold. In 1880 there was one
telephone to every one thousand per-
sons-today there is a telephone to
every nine persons. During the past
year and a half more new telephones
were installed in American homes and
offices than are in use throughout
Great Britain. America has only one
sixteenth of the worlds population
but nearly two-thirds of the worlds
telephoning is over the 24,OOO,O 900
miles of wire in the Bell System. The
Bell System-that is the American
Telephone and Telegraph Company
and Associated Companies-which is
the extent Of it's public service has
not a counterpart anywhere, has been
built out Of the savings of hundreds
of thousands of thrifty men and
women"
