tian. Endeavor and a man of national
reputation opened the 31st state con.
vention of the Christian Endeavor

whatever is wrong is. wrong; right is

CLOSING ADDRESS
Last Meeting Of Convention Held
at Auditorium Sunday Even
.:~ =, i inc

Dr., Daniel Polling, Associate Presi-
dent, United Society Christian Endea-
vor, delivered the closing address of
the five day convention of the State
Union at the Park Auditorium Sunday
evening to capacity audience. DR..
Polling used as his theme the admoni-
ton: Watch Your STEP" which he
treated in a mastery way. By apt il
Illustrations applied to our daily lives
he deeply impressed his hearers. His
three outstanding points were to
Watch your. Step, Go Farward and
Don't Crowd. His first illustrations
which the speaker declared occasionedi
his, subject was an incident which
took ,placeAi in New York city where at
the entrance to the subway station
the agent was continually calling
Watch Your STEP to the passengers
to warn people of the surrounding
dangers. Once inside the railway
coach the next step is to move for
ward and at the same time not to
crowd. Every step should be so plan
ned and carefully made that the fu-
ture would take care of itself. One
should follow the leadership and guild
ing of Jesus Christ urged DR.. Polling.
Ones own powers are weak and can
not be relied upon in the crucial test.
Be. dissatisfied with existing condi-
tons and seek to improve them wher-
ever is possible was another point.

A thrilling story was told by DR..
Polling about personal experience
which he had while climbing in the
Cascade Mountains. AS one of a par
ty ascending, difficult slope in the
hills, he refused to follow the guide
but set off on his own hook expecting
to make the ascent in shorter time
than with the guide. AS result he
made misstep and fell over "a cliff
beneath which was rapid flowing
river. Fortunately Dr. Polling land
ed safely in the branches of a large
tree and escaped without any serious
injuries. The moral Dr. Polling said
was to follow the guide.
After one has followed these in
dexes trde Christians hope to reach
the goal which is happy reunion fol-
lowing death in the Faith.

In the >superintendents conferences,
problems were worked out, new: plans

Special emphasis was placed on: the
missionary work. Mrs: .Voris, Of Man:

Attendance plans, contests, and the
devotional life of the Juniors were
stressed, and helps for all lines Of

Perhaps the, Juniors enjoyed most
the Junior hour at the close OF each
session. It was noticed that no one
left before the meetings were over for
no one was willing to miss the story.
But the big event was the Junior
Banquet. Over eighty Juniors Junior
workers and friends spent a: very
noisy, very peppy and profitable hour
together. Ernest Ligon showed he
could be a Junior as we'll as an f:sC.

Washington, Jan. II. - Prosecution
of the large manufacturers Of tobacco
for alleged violation Of the Sherman
antitrust law in connection with the
purchase of tobacco on markets in
Kentucky and other states will be
urged upon the Department Of Justice
by Representative W. ]. Fields, of the
Ninth Kentucky district.
Mr.. Fields said Monday night that
he would confer Immediately with the
department officials regarding data
submitted or to be submitted to- the
Department Of Justice by the Federal
Trade Commission. He said also that
he would confer with officials Of the
Federal Trade Commission In regard
to legislation to further govern the to-
bacco markets.
The action of Mr.. Fields follows a
report made recently by the Federal
Trade Commission in response to a
resolution introduced In the House by
the Kentuckian calling for an investi-
cation Of the tobacco markets, espe-
cially during the last months Of 1919
and the early months of 1920. In its
report the commission found that

the large tobacco manufacturers prob
ably were in violation of the Sherman
