MOVING PICTURE AT
 LOCAL r, M. c, A. SERVICE

LOCAL Y. M. c. A. SERVICE
 The service at the Y. M. c. A. Sun day afternoon was appropriate for the holiday, season. Swahn's orchestra, con- sisting of John M. Swahn, cornetist {; Theodore Sterry, violin; Richard Sand CTS, clarinet and Robert W. Otis, plan ist, furnished especially fine music, play ing several selections and accompanying the singing of the hymns. The scripture reading was in line with the day and Rev. J. H. Graham offered prayer. The first part of the very attractive story of Joseph was shown in moving pictures and this prover of realEinterest to the au- dience of men and boys.
 Between the reels, Secretary Hill made a brief address, saying in part as fol- | lows, "An outstanding feature in this part of the picture of Joseph is jealousy on the part of the brothers of Joseph, who was the favorite son, and they went to the extent of throwing him into pit and l then selling him into slavery for twenty pieces of silver.
 l. Jealousy is terrible trait of charac- i ter; if every one was dominated by it there would be no Christmas for such I a spirit is entirely foreign to the Christ mas spirit. Jealousy has caused a, large portion of the troubles in this old world
 Socialism, carried to the extreme is rooted in jealousy. We find it at times among business men, and once in a while we find it in the church. At times the family life is blighted by jealousy, as was the case in Joseph's fam fly, and family jealousy is sad indeed. The inevitable law of sewing and reaping ob: tains in the realm of jealousy. and the harvest is terrible. The spirit of Christ mas should banish all jealousy from our lives Emmet J. Fritz operated the moy- ing picture machine. The second part of this interesting story will be shown next i Sunday at o'clock.
