CITY ADVERTISED
BY MUSICAL
ARTISTS PROGRAM

The Artists Course at Hardin Col
iege this year is one of the finest ever
held in a city this size in Missouri,
Mr.. May, the head of the Piano de-
partment at Hardin, who arranged
the program, is personally acquainted
with a number of the artists and 1t is
said that the program, which costs
several thousand dollars, because OF
this fact was secured for fully $500
less than is ordinarily charged for
such famous talent.
Already quite a number Of tickets
have been sold to Fulton people who
will motor. to Mexico to hear the Ave
numbers. Columbia and many other
nearby cities will be represented I'm
the audiences. Mexico should support
this course with unqualified cooper
alton.
The American Musical Review, on
the strength of Mexico having such
wonderful program, in an edition soon
to appear, will devote an entire page
to Mexico, the two schools and the Mon
day Music Club and stressing the re-
markable fact that city this size can
support as well as thoroughly appre-
ciate such a high grade program.
Mr.. May is now working to secure
the st. Louis Symphony orcheztFa for
concert here. Such activities NOT
only advertise Mexico but give cur
citizenship an opportunity TO eaSoy
unusual musical advantage. We trpat
the people Of Mexico will give Mr..
May the fullest support in his splendi&
work along this line.

REVIVAL OPENS
SUNDAY WITH
THREE MEETINGS

The Revival Campaign, at the
First Baptist Church, opened Sunday
with three splendid services. DR.. Ray
Palmer, of Portland, Ore, delivered
three very fine scholarly addresses.
The theme for the address in the
morning was "The Worlds Bible" DR..
Palmer declared in no uncertain tones
that the Bible is the inspired word of
God given to the world as an unerring
guide of right living. The speaker
declared that the Bible is second to no
work of literature published in the
world today and deplored the fact
that the neglect given to it's study
would prove disastrous.
At 2:30 o'clock in the afternoon the
evangelist spoke upon a theme espec-
tally interesting to young men and
young ladies urging upon his hearers
the absolute necessity of the clean,
pure, white life and the raising of the
single standard of purity for both
men and women. DR.. Palmer believes
that the double standard of purity is
curse and that men should be the
defender rather than the assassin of
virtue.
At the evening service the evange-
list delivered a masterful address
pointing out forcefully and beautifully
some of the joys and benefits derived
from the coming together for worship
and service in the house of God. DR..
Palmer declared that the Church of
God is the only institution on earth
today that is lifting the world out of
heathenism and despair to higher
plane of right living and that the
church and all Christian people can
bring peace to the world by giving
God his crowned rights in the heart
and life.
There were three additions made to
the church at the evening service and
several more came forward express
ing desire to become converted. Dr..
Palmer is a forceful speaker and
splendid orator. He has clear enun-
citation in his speech and very pleas
ing delivery. He win be heard with
delight, by the people of Mexico. The
house was well filed at all of the ser.
vices, many having to stand at ths
evening hour.
! The great choir, under the direction
of Mr.. Turner, is pleasing feature
of each service and the singing by the
congregation is inspiring to all. The
services are held each afternoon at
2:3O and each evening at T:30 o'clock.

LIVE IN TENT
AND SEND SON
TO UNIVERSITY

The landlord and the high prices
which are being asked for the rental
OF houses and apartments have no
terrors for Mr.. and Mrs. G. w. Rus
sell and their son, Lloyd Russell this
winter. These persons who have
lived in Benton City about seven years
decided that they would move to Col
umbia this winter so that Lloyd might
attend the University. In antieipat-
ing this change they went to Columbia
last summer trying to find home
which they could rent for moderate
sum but were unsuccessful.
In the month of August, Russell
made two trips to Columbia trying to
locate modest and moderately priced
cottage. Each time he was disap-
pointed. Having spent many months
in a tent in Kansas City with his
family during the war, Russell de-
cided that it would be just as easy to
live in tent this winter and send his
son to school as to live in a tent and
do army service.
A friend of the family offered them
free use of vocant lot when the mat
ter was laid before him and the Rus
sell family went to Columbia, pitched
IA by "a tent on the ground early in
September, laid a substantial floor
under the tent and now have a cozy
home which Russell says, food and all
cost him only $100.
The tent has two rooms and electric
lights and is equipped with an oil
range for cooking and a heating stove.
The family ia so delighted with
their new home that Russell said they
are there for the winter and longer
unless they can find the sort Of a
home they want for moderate price.
