delighted audience assembled at the local Y. M. c. A. Sunday afternoon at 4.30 o'clock. After the opening exercises of song, prayer and scripture reading, the first part of the splendid moving picture, The Heart of Hero, was shown, much to the satisfaction of all present.

Next Sunday the final three reels will be shown.
 Between the reels A. T. Stratton. a per- sonal friend of Mir. and Mrs Edwin Hill, gave an intensely interesting address on Patriotism. Among other things he said {: Every boy and girl and every man and woman should be proud of the country which gave them birth. We think, and 1 rightly so and we of course believe that our America is the best country in the I world. We do well to be pa iotic for our great country, and we love to think of the great men who have helped to make ouC nation, but we must carry our patriotism still further and remember that the highest type of patriotism is a patriotism for the great Kingdom of God and our great King, even Jesus Christ. | Hugh Kinder officiated at the piano for the pictures and also rendered a pleasing | solo. Emmett J. Fritz, the physical di- rector of the r, operated the moving picture machine.
