For Good of the
 Community

WHY the evangelist? Because man knows w his need of spiritual drubbing. His con science welcomes the flashing. He senses the accumulation of moral dead wood The evan gest is the ax that cuts it away and cleans up his moral yard
 The evangelist can say to man from the pulpit what no friend would dare say to him on { the street. He can use words of excoriation that sound as balm to stricken soul. The same words coming from man to man would call for fight
 Very few men try to fool their Maker. They may bluffit out with head held high before their fellows, but they are honest with themselves. They resent another human setting himself as judge over them, but they welcome the imper- sonal judgment passed on them from the pulpit.
 An eminent Lothario of the reign of Charles II was questioned as to his methods of winning the favor of women. If a bar-mald" he said, "treat her like lady; if a lady, treat her like bar-maid"
 This skilled manipulation of the hearts of women meant that the truth counts. The lacka- daisical ladv of fashion would be caught by be- ing approached as real woman; the bar-1nald caught by an approach suggesting the lady that she would be.
 Some form of avoWal of mans meanness will survive until there is no more Of It. When ChrISt told his disciples to confess their sins to one another. He merely voiced mans natural incli- nation to be shriven of his misdeeds by their admission.
 In every rural community where the old fashioned revival still maintains there are the accustomed sinners who may be relied on to fill the mourner's bench. Some call them hypo- crites That is not right. They come the more regularly to the mourner's bench because they belong there the more regularly.
 Great sinners have made great saints. St. Paulpersecuted the Lords own until he became afollower St. Augustine led the agnostics until he turned Christian and then was tower of strength in the Christian church. The man who does not finally bring his load to the confessional of the conscience goes mad or stays himself.
 Ralph Nickelby hung himself because he had hardened his heart and sealed the door of his spiritual being. Scrooge saved himself from hanging by mixing with the childrens Christmas party and relieving himself through new found generosity of the soul agony which years of miserliness had heaped up.
 It is the better part of the men within the cloister of their conscience that is waiting on other men to call it into outer, bigger and boder expressions If the psychology that brings men to revivals to hear themselves told of their meanness and littleness that they may come from under that load were oftener applied by their leaders before the act there would be less need of revivalS at churches and reforms at state houses and city halls

WOMEN AND GIRLS ONLY! /
MEN MUST NOT READ THIS

Here's chance for girls under
sixty to get free airplane ride dur
ing the fair.
Of course, you know, girls, that the
Flying Circus is coming here for the
big fair. Well. the fact of the mat
ter is that the fair association cannot
secure the circus unless we get $50
subscriptions, old or renewals, for
the St. Paul Dispatch.
You know that the Dispatch Print
ing company owns the circus and will
not let them come unless we get
these subscriptions. Money will not
bring them, so we must go after the
subscriptions.
Now, what the fair wants you to do
is to get a list of present subscribers
to the Dispatch and secure their re-
newals and then get as many new
ones as you can.
: Carlton Crothers is manager of the
contest and has his office in the C.
w. Jewett company garage. He will
start you out. He will give you list
of the old subscribers and put you
wise as to how to secure new ones.
| If you are interested in winning a
free airplane ride and some of the
other prizes, step into Jewett's any
afternoon and see Mr.. Crothers.
If you have a friend whom you
want to nominate, send her name to
the contest manager.
This contest will be short and
sweet. When the required number
of $50 new or renewals have been
/ turned in, the contest will be an

also have a hand in the program and
will present the most sensational
stunts known to the air world when
they compete in an aerial contest to
see who can do the most thrilling
stunts. Aviators from both cities

have already entered for this thriller,
with promises to do barrel rolls, dips,

Probably the feature which is at
