CULTURE CENTER
LEFT BEHIND
American Culture and Literature
Found in Library Established
In Paris During
War.

PARIS, (By Mail. )--As one of the
results of her part In the world war,
America has left Europe permanent
center of American culture and litera-
iture-a big American library in Paris.
First of it's kind on this side of the
Atlantic, this institution. built upon
the efforts of the American Library
association of the A. e. F., officially
began life Jan / when the war staff
which conducted the project for the
benefit of American soldiers IN
France, turned the building over to
the new corps Of permanent Librarians.
It then became rendezvous for
people of all nations wishing educa-
ton in American art science and
literature and for Americans in Eu-
rope wanting to keep in contact with
the States"
The venture has been financed by
American business firms and Ameri-
can residents in Paris. The American
Library association contributed the
chief librarian as it's share in prompt
ing closer intellectual union of the
new and old worlds.
The thousands Of American tourists
due in France the next few years are
expected to make the library one of
their headquarters. It contains an i'm
mense collection Of travel books, in
Guiding virtually every good book in
print dealing with continental coun-
tries, gathered together for the bene-
fit of doughboys wanting to see Eu-
rope before going home.
The library is a composite OF all the
army libraries operated by the Ameri-
can Library association in France. 1t
comprises between $4,000 and 10000
volumes.
AS it is. the only place In Europe
where students can find a compare
lively complete array Of best Ameri-
can works, the staff believes it will
become an important center in the
European educational world.
The building is few PAGES from
the Champs Elysees, and directly
across the street from the presidents
palace.
Prophetic Of its future, Mrs. E. G.
Potter, San Francisco, retiring chief
librarian, reports hundreds of French,
Italians, Russians. English, in fact all
nationalities are already patronizing
the book shelves. French students
and residents alike have displayed a
very keen eagerness in this oppor-
tunity to learn American literature.

MUCH INTEREST
BEING SHOWN
Services at the Baptist Church are
Increasing in Popularity and
Congregations are Grow
ing Nightly.
TContributed.1

1t is the usual thing, when speaN
ing OF revival meetings. to say that
interest is growing" Sometimes
this statement is much like the
familiar saying, THE operation was
successful, but the patient died"
That is, sometimes 1t is said the in
terest is growing, but congregations
are decreasing. But this is not true
of the meetings now being held in
the First Baptist church of this city.
Both interest and congregations are
growing, the latter increasing from
twenty-five to, forty percent :. each
evening. Those who started coming
first are sticking, and new faces are
seen every night. Some who have
been sick are beginning to come
back, and others expect to be back
by the last of the week. New mem.
bers are also added to the chorus
choir every night. The special plat.
form. put in for the choir, will have
to Der enlarged soon, or some other
plan found to accommodate the
singers.
The Rev. Harvey j. Moore preach
ed last night on the subject. "Hypo-
critics, in the Church and Out of it."
He, said that Christ hated hypocrites
above all other sinners, and that his
most scathing denunciations were
directed against them.
There are more hypocrites out
side the church than inside" he de-
elared. Joining a church does not
create the obligation, to do right.
Every man is under obligation to be
square and straight in his dealings
and in all his personal relations.
Whoever pretends to be man and
is not is a hypocrite. Yet not every
man who is inconsistent in his life,
who makes mistakes, and sometimes
does wrong, whether In the church
or out, is to be branded hypocrite,'
the speaker continued. MANY fail
| through weakness, or because OF
Overwhelming temptation, or on &C.
count of imperfect light. None of us
in the church claims to be living a
perfect life. Only one perfect man
ever lived on earth, and they cruel
| fed him"
"If anyone here thinks the church
is full of hypocrites," said. the Rev.
Mr.. Moore, suppose we make bar
gain with some other city the size Of
Keokuk and offer to exchange all our
citizens who are church members for
all they have who are not church
members. Who would get the best
of the bargain? The next time you
hear anyone say there are so many
hypocrites in the church, give him
pencil and paper and dare him to
write down their names and sign his
own to the statement that they are
hypocrites. 1t is ccwardly to call
any man hypocrite unless you can
prove it,"
Gods Barriers Against Sim will
be the subject of the sermon tonight.
Mr.. Clarke will sing a solo.
