To the w. E. and NJ. Society of the
Z. Mt. Olive Association Greeting:
1t is indeed pleasure to me, as well
as duty to address you in interest of
our work count it sacred privi-
lege to be one in the ranks of the chris.
tian women of this world, participant
in the efforts as a builder in the Mas
ter's cause. Since our meeting in Aug
ust have tried to look web into the
work. My heart is devoted to the fur
theranc9 OF this great cause.
We hope to accomplish much for the
Lord this year, midst hard struggles
and adverse circumstances, for God
has declared in his holy word, IF be
for you | am more than all the world
against you Now realize that diff
erent fields Of labor require different
planning, so ! hope that each president
of the different circles will get busy
and pull off a big revival in the home
work and in the near future we viii be
called together and decide on a uniyer-
sal plan to raise some money for The
cause.
My dear CO. workers, need your CO.
operation. To make this work success
naturally we must work together. We
must know each other, and we must
never let the spirit of jealousy creep IN
among US. Gods plans are pure and
simple, let us adopt Gods way, for
man has failed every time he attempt
ed to declare great things without the
help of God.
Now we must not fail to be loyal to
the Home Mission Board, also to our
home field, and the old Ministers Home
God will judge us by our works 1t is
our duty to plan well for more thor
ough work this year than ever before.
Our Moderator Ed j. d. Davis, is
very active in trying to go over the
top our next annual meeting.
To be Il real Womans Auxiliary,
means we must represent with some
thing; | mean we must raise money by
the hundreds To do so it requires
program of unselfishness. an object
clearly defined. and a voice by the
people. Our State Work must be a
real live wire in Southern Illinois. We
must work to that end. We want ev-
cry circle TO represent III our next
meeting which will convene in Evans
ton in May 1921.
We must take the field for God, the
harvest is ripe, the field is white Let
US pray the Lord to send laborers into
the vineyard. Multiply yonr gifts by
your prayers, our faith by our works,
and we will go over the top this asso-
ciational year for God. May God bless
and direct our work.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be
Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure cartarr-
hal deafness, and that is by constitu-
ional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tubes
When this tube infamed you have a
rumblng sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result. Unless the inflammation
can be reduced and this tube to its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever Many cases of deafness are
caused by catarrh, which is an infiamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
Halls Catarrh Medicine acts thru the
blood on the mucous surfaces of the
system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Catarrah Peafness that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Medi

An Editorial.

1t is strange that some men
style themselves as Baptist Minis
tiers and have no regard for the
truth. DR. Olive says as long as
the condemned churches, and pa To-
tors were members Of the writer's
Association they were alright
Though they represented in the
accused white State convention
Oh how misery loves company
+ In the d5st place there are no Min
lister in ihis end Of the state in SO
'tar as We know ner churches that
have been condemned Il is true
THAT DR.. stands condemned He
/ is in a crowd by himself, and want
company. Heis the only one
that stands out prominently con-
demned, and he ought to be.
When a man has the brazen afiront-
ry to mount a pulpit and denounce
the men that have made it posi-
bic for him to have place to
preach and have endeavored to
preach a whole Christ and accuse
them OF being thieves and robbers
jnst because he is anxious for lead
ership. and thereby attempts to
create another organization, for
the purpose OF caring out sinister
purposes is a bad man no matter
who no is.
There is nobody worried about
his so called Zion Association let
him meet with DR.. Grave or any
where else they, care to meet with
and hold his Indignation meeting

ably well informed that that, is a

Dempsey Plays Baseball.

ATLANTIC CRY, n j., May 22.-Jack
Dempseys cottage was one OF the prin-
cipal attractions OF the hundreds OF
visitors at the resort to-day. They
swarmed all over the camp, inspectca
the house from attic TO cellar and r.
sisted upon shaking hands with the
champion, who TO get away from the
throng took a long ride in his motor
car
That was not before he had taken
part In a baseball game, playing on the
side OF the visiting newspaper men
against the men employed about his
camp. Jack played first base for six
innings and then went into the box. The
score OF 81 20 % in favor OF the news
papar men was no reflection on the
work OF the champion az baseball
player.

heavyweight In camp, left suddenly to-
day and told Manager Jack Kearns that
he would not return. Clifford has been
