This reputation is not necessarily
confined to one city or farm. Marshall
county has the opportunity to- become a

many beautiful farms that could well
afford to maintain herds that would

1t was gratifying to see so many rep
resentatives Of the Women's club, the
Girls Community club, the Ladies'
Reading Circle and other organizations
present at the last meeting of the War
rem Commercial club for the purpose of
discussing ways and means for city
-betterment. BY the united effort of
all the people, both men and women,
we will be able to make our city a good
place in which to live. There is one
organization, however, that was not
represented and that is larger and has
within itself great potentialities for use
full service, than al 1.-The other civic or
CARNATIONS of the. city put together,
and that organization is the Warren
schools. We have, here 400 to 500
bright and intelligent boys and girls Of
all ages and they are anxious to do
their bit for the city, which is their
home and where most -: tlem have
been born. They are the passive recip-
tents Of many benefits conferred upon
them by the municipality But they
do not want to be receiving all the time
they also want to give to, do some
thing in return They have the energy
and ambition of youth and their ac-
fivity properly directed will do wonders
for the city. Let us enlist the boys and
girls in the big work Of city bettermenf.
They are the hope of the future and
IN few years more the city will be
theirs to run. Let them start now and
they will be better trained for the job
when the time comes for them to take
charge. Let a "Little Citizens Associa-
ton" be organized and given some
thing to do for the general good.

BIBLICAL OBSERVATIONS
] BY Evangelist D. r. Seagren.

Having found pasture the Psalmist
Isays. He maketh me to lie down in.
green pastures. Pasture and rest go
together. Christ, the Good Shepherd,
offers rest. Come unto me-. all We that
labor and are heavy laden and j will
give you rest. Take my yoke upon you
and learn Of me, for i am meek and
lOwly In heart, and We shall find rest
unto your souls" (Math. IL :2S,29)
In these two verses, the word my
is mentioned three times; the word
"me" twice and the word ~ appears
twice, making the invitation very per-
sonal, indeed. Come is the invitations
Come direct to Jesus. Jesus gives a
real rest. There is q rest we have to
find.
We first, by faith, receive Christ, the
true Bread from Heaven, given by God,
His Father. We partake Of Him, the
bread which the Son of Man giveth,
and we find rest from the heavy bur-
den Of our sins, rest from doubt and
| fear, and rest from our own works.
We experience. the joy and peace of
salvation. We cease from our own
works as God did, from His: on the
seventh day.
buC soon the STRUGGLE comes, the con-
| flict between the flesh and the spirit.
Having received rest from Christ as
| His Gift we have now to take His yoke
upon us. His yoke of love and Obed-
fence to the Father. an easy yoke; an
other burden, but light burden in
place of the grieyeous bondage under
sin and Satan and the heavy load of
guilt and misery. And then we
learn from Him, the meek and lowly in
heart in order that we may find rest
| to our souls in tile midst of temptations
and trials and difficulties and perplexi-
| ties in our paths. {.
1 The great upheaval and unrest now
predominating in this world the plans
being tried out here and there, how
best to bring it back to peace and rest,
/ shows that men have forgotten Him
who said. Come unto me and We shall
| find rest unto your souls. And outside
of Him there is no rest for the soul
The seventh generation Of this country,
the large majority Of whom care moth
| ing for the rest in Christ, have great
responsibility upon them-the RESPONSE
bility of the welfare of this nation. =.
| The Minneapolis Journal, some time
ago. carried an article 1rolh Hearst's

the seventh generation NUM- 81 aagHssll
100000 youths, will select from among
its members presidents sof the United
States, the lawmakers,ai its editors. its
college presidents, its leaders;of public
thought, it's captains Of industry, and
the toilefs Of that day. We have a fine
public school system for them. With
our systems Of state universities which
are practically free to all, and with our
great endowed universities and
colleges, we have a right to be proud
in certain respects of our success in
preparing the seventh generation to
take over the affairs of this Nation in
due time. : = But hundred and fifty
years ago, the genera ton that had
affairs in hand had been produced by a
simple and direct thinking set Of
fathers and mothers. = Religion had
place in the American life then, as
it had in the lives of all other Christian
nations, but with this difference the
American children were taught religion
in their homes while in England,
France and Germany, parents relied
on the school teachers in the main, to
instructstheir children in religion.
We are as different from our fathers
as any generation has been and per
haps there is bigger gap between us
and our grandfathers than has ever
existed between grand generations.
We, for instance, are not church go-
ing generation. Out of los, 00O 900 sOf
ns, only 44,OOO,OOO are church members.
Twenty million of our young folks have
no religious training whatever. The
seventh vii be the first generation to
come to power III the United States
without a general religious training.
At least 40 per cent of its members will
have no religious instruction of any
kind. 1t will be the first generation to
come to power whose fathers and
mothers have spent their Sundays in
motOrcars instead of in churches
What has the future in store for
this nation? Think it over:
