95 sas there? some authorities say seven, othersc cunt eight In the whole song book you've only got seven or eight. That's all Caruso knew mad he could stretch his voice 10 almost un- bclcveable limits. Fundamental things are necessary 10 know how to make a euccesa Of anything Pay at- tention othe primary things of life, It is the same in character; il is necessary to pay attention 10 the pri- mary principles"
 No Game"
 Games must have rules What happens to a game if you don't keep the rulea? (At this point a small boy in the church shouted "Thered be no game.D If q man playing baseball knocks the ball into center field and it is caught fairly and squarely and the umpire lets him continue to run around the bases and score one, fl knocks that game higher than a kite.
 Play by Rule.
 Christ has laid down certain rules of life ,and if you don't play the game according 10 the rules you've spoiled the game You can do in five minutes what will blast your life forever As boys or girls you can do something that your enemies win cast up in your teeth when you're sixty"
 Tn the Homc.
 In announcing his topic fer this afternoons session. Dr. Goodell said he would preach on Evangelism in the Home" we must have Chris tian homes if we arc to have q Chris tian nation," he said. Tonight pr, Goodell will talk on What Is Your Business?" We hear lot about the high cots of living" said the minister in beginning his evenings sermon, but tonight I'm going to talk to you on the high cost of life. I mean the higher life the life that is worth while and good enough to live for ever"
 Times Have Changed.
 According to Dr. Goodell a few years ago a man who did his own per sonal work fairly well paid attention to the law and paid his taxes and UIlltl DllIS, StA" llltiJ lllt lOIhl lAlIlIl'- ter received an occasional load of wood and voted regularly for Andrew Jackson, was doing all he felt was necessary to be Q good citizen. Times have changed now. A good profess sional man in New York has his door bell rung a dozen times day by people who want him to serve on some committee for better parks, bet ter citizenship, or some city interest sign a petition or contribute to fund for the benefit of the Armenians, Turks, Chinese, Near East, Far East, Red Cross or some other worthy cgause. He has moved out of the narrow circle which confined the Christian interests of the man of the last half of the last century.
 Labor Problems.
 The speaker gave a vivid descrip- ton of d meek and modest committee of years ago timidly requesting an employer for an increase in wages and compared it to the independent walking delegate of the present day, who deflantly announces that the fac tories belong to the workers and de- mands an equal distribution of the profits. You cant take your loaf of bread and go off and eat it all by yourself in a corner any more"
 Even the Ministers Change.
 Tt is not considered good form any more for ministers to talk about heaven. If a minister does it now he'd proba bly feel like apologizing before he descended the pulpit steps" Referring to Socrates IS a Heather Saint" he told a story of how the an cient philosopher when about to die, was questioned by friends as to what he wanted done with his body an- swered, You can bury me if you catch me, but remember that the body is not Socrates. I shall so to the home of the blessed.

 Different Currency There. You are busy morning, noon ant night trying to make a little money Money is hard to get, easy to lose anc bitter to hold on to when obtained 1T an unrighteous manner, How nucl of it can you take with you? There are no pockets in shrouds. You can take a penny across and you couldn use it if you did. The only coir which passes current across is tn, coin of good deeds and here is tn, place where you will have to mint 1t. '
 Pacing Long JOUIney.
 Speaking Of old-tine whaling boat! which used 10 sail from New Bed ford Mass. during one of his earl, pastorates, the speaker discussed tn, custom of loading up provision enough for a year or more, becaus, the men were headed for Arctic re gions and were not coastwise sailor but deep sea sailors.
