Ten thousand pounds, normally

The r. Y. p. u. is not marking time

evening the B. Y. ?. U. enjoyed an
other program of inspiration and in
struction when Group Four rendered
the program which they had pre-
pared on "Soul Winning" Each of

time in preparation. Several OF the
most beautiful hymns Of the church
were sung and appreciated. and the
selections by the Excelsior Four"
were enjoyed by all. The r. Y. p. u.

has so kindly rendered this year.

sand Baptists attended its sessions.
The convention consists Of II
Southern states, including the state
Of Illinois, besides the District of CO.
lumbia and Panama and represents
over three million Baptist church
members.
Great progress was reported in
every department Of Baptist activi-
ties. The second year Of the pledge
to the s75,OO0,00o campaign fund
was paid in full. Great enthusiasm
was manifested in the reports Of all
the different boards. Undoubtedly
Southern Baptists are now at the
beginning Of the greatest work OF
evangelism the denomination has
ever known. The evangelistic note
was struck in every report.
Probably no more significant utter
ance was ever made than that by
Geo. w. Truitt, Of Dallas, Texas,
when nc Sdlu w NlS EItab StttiNii Nv

5000 people on Sunday, May rs, that
Europe was now ready for the prin-
ciples Of liberty rs taught by the
Bible and endorsed by Baptists. The
war has not solved the problem and
secular education has not solved II
Only the religion of Jesus Christ
can solve II, and only the de-
nominations that stand for individual
freedom in the matter Of conscience
will be acceptable to the struggling
masses Of Europe.
Surely Baptists should recognize
this opportunity for Christian serv-
ice. With Europe won to Christ, the
problem Of war will be solved. and the
evangelism Of the world will soon fol
low.

Public School News

Along with the wonderful growth
of Berea College, the public school
of the town also has developed in
the recent years. We think it COM
pares favorably with the graded
schools of other places. The eighth
grade graduating exercises of the
present year occurred in the evening
of Friday, May 10. They were Of an
altogether creditable character. Two
pantomimes, "The Star-Spangled Ban
ner" and america" by Ida French
and Gladys Todd respectively, were
of high order. While these popu-
lar songs were sung, by pupils behind
a screen, the young Miss silently il
Illustrated, in a most graceful manner,
the changing thoughts expressed by
the poem. There must have been a
vast amount Of work in bringing the
delightful exercises to such high
plane of excellence.
The class as a whole took part in
rendering the play entitled "The Mag
ic Voice." Without attempting a de-
tailed description of the plot or the
individual work of the several actors
it must suffice that we speak in high
appreciation Of the thoroness wit
which the different parts were mem
orized and the earnestness with which
they were given. 1t was a fine ex
ample of team work, on the part O.
pupils and teacher.
An able address was given TO tn
graduating class, the school. and tn
audience by DR.. N. c. Hirschy, Of tn
College. He emphasized the value o
education, and urged that it be mad
to include something more than mer
industrial skill, important as that is
namely, a rounded development o.
intellect and moral character. 1t i
for the interest of our entire peopl
that all classes and races in oui

NO-TOBACCO LEAGUE
SECRETARY
Visits Berea and Delivers Forceful
Addresses TO Berea Audiences

Rev. Chas. NJ. Fillmore, Of Indian
apolis, Ind, General Secretary Of the
No-Tobacco League Of America, was
in Berea over Sunday, the 18th, and
gave a number of addresses on the
work of that organization.
In the Chapel, on Saturday, he said
that their work had six phases: in
vestigation, evaluation, education, ag-
itation, organization and legislation.
He also spoke before the Sunday
school and taught the lesson for the
class in Christian Fundamentals. He
preached at the Christian Church at
eleven o'clock on Freedom by the
Truth" To the Y. NJ. C. A. in the
evening he spoke on Perfection
But his principal address was in the
Parish House at $3.50 on Sunday af-
ternoon before the Anti-Tobacco
League Of Berea College, under whose
auspices he came here.
Some of the statistics given by Mr..
Fillmore were rather startling. He
said that more than $4,000 farmers
last year planted over 100000 acres
in tobacco, the crop amounting to
/ ,476,444,OO0 pounds-S7, 000, 900 more
pounds than ever raised before.
Over 100000 people are engaged
in the tobacco business in one way
or another. The growth of the bust
ness has been tremendous in recent
years. In 1900 there were manufac-
tured and sold in the United States
over 2,O00,00O,OO0 cigarets. In 1910
it had increased to over 5000, 100000:
1918, over 1900 ZOO, 900; 1919, over
AZ, OOO, 900, 900; 1920, over $4,000, OoO,-
900.
1t is conservatively estimated that
tobacco now costs the nation over
s., O0O, 100000 a year.
Mr.. Fillmore showed that nicotine,
the essential element in tobacco is a
deadly drug, the best use of which was
as bug poison with which to spray
trees and fruit plants. Surely bug
poison cannot be good for boys" re-
marked Mr.. Fillmore.
He quoted statistics showing how
its use in the form of cigarets was
having a rapid increase among school
boys. running them physically mental
w. financially and morally. Its
havoc is terrible and no one can show
single good thing it does for the
user" he remarked.
The No-Tobacco League Of America
is having an excellent growth and
J many states are falling in Line in its
work. Mr.. Fillmore was greatly en-
couraged over the reception he re-
ceived here as well as in other parts
of Kentucky and says that it will
only be a few months when the en-
tire state will be ready for organiza
ton.
He is to spend the month Of June
in Minnesota, where a state organiza
ton will be formed on the 9Th OF
the month.
Mr.. Fillmore is dead in earnest ant
drives home his facts and figures
with an enthusiasm that is very con
vincing.
He also sang some of his song;
which are world famous, and these
added greatly to the interest of hi:
meetings.

Before that, for nine years, he had
taught in the Foundation schools of
Berea College. His public spirit,
sterling character, genial disposition,
and thoro instruction will cause the
departure of himself and lovely fami-
ly to be widely regretted.
