BY merely counting noses at the

split season was so muchly to be
desired. BY actual count there were
1872 loyal fans at yesterdays session,
and fully two dozen Of those were
from Lakeland. If the Highlanders

CARL SPENCER GETS
PRAISE FOR HONESTY

Carl Spencer, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. J. II. Spencer Of Huntingdon,
who is a chautfer of the Yellow
Cab Company at Chicago, got him
self prominently in the papers Of
that city few days ago by proving
himself to be-what his friends
here always claimed for him-an
honest young man.
After taking an aged lady from
hotel to railway station be re-
turned to his post and opened the
door of his cab with intent to clean
up. On the floor be found an over
night bag which he turned into the
company and which was found to
contain $4,000 worth of jewelry.
Upon investigation it was found
that the bag belonged to Mrs. Il.
W. Sears, widow of The founder of
Sears, Roebuck & Co., and she was
located al Boston hotel.
In the big city. where there is SO
much robbery and stealing going
on, it was so refreshing to find a
young man honest as Carl proved
himself to be, that the incident got
into the papers under big head
lines - huntingdon Democrat.

LEADERS WILL BE TRAINED.

In each of the colleges the move

partment of religions education, in

trained men 20 be obtained. And
in these partments the students
Of Methodism wiz be educated in
all the methods, programs and
subject-matters of religious educa-
tion as it relates TO the children
end youth of the land.
Thus will each person educated
at one of these colleges of the M.
E, Church, South, go back from
his college to his local church as a
trained Sunday school expert. He
will be capable of correcting the
glaring defects which now exist
aud transform each church and
church school into an agency of
religions education as efficiently
conducted as in the public school.
He will know how to get the
children enrolled, how to train
the teachers, how to build and
adapt the course of study, bow to
do any and al things necessary TO
give religious instruction to all the
children now growing up in spirit
ual and moral ignorance.
To send thousands of such train
cd men and women into churches
over our territory-placipg them
in every church, large and small,
from which students are sent to
the colleges-ths is the most fun
damentaI and far-reaching pro-
gram ever projected in the Nation

spiritual illiteracy and moral bank
ruptcy of the Nation.
Will you lend your full support

Present Month Has Been Third
Dricst October on Record at

The month just closing has been
one of the most remarkable Octobers

no trouble in nearing, equaling or
breaking past records.
The world is going thru a heated
period. The indications only are
known, the cause is not, according to
State Meteorologist S. D. Flora. This
is the eleventh consecutive month with
temperatures averaging above normal.
The temperatures this month aver
aged 4 degrees above normal. This
is the seventh Warmest October on
record since the temperatures were
first recorded, in 1887. There has
been nineteen continuous days, or
practically three weeks, of Indian
summer weather, which is very I'M
usual.
The past month has been the third
driest October on record, only 20 of
an inch of rain falling and that was
all received in three days. This is
only IA per cent of the average
amount of rain received during the
months on record. The driest october
ever recorded was in 1904, when only
.22 of an inch fell, and the second
driest was in 1898, when only rs OF
