been insistent since the giving
of this address that it be repeat
ed some time this summer at
which time those from the coun-
try can attend. The masterpieces
of the world-famed painters,
Raphael, Millet. Dore, Flock

Others could not have been pre-
sented in more brilliant and IN
spring colors than they were on
the occasion of this address last
Sabbath evening. Though Christ
was no artist.in the worlds mean
ing of that term, truly it can be
said that he has inspired the
greatest pictures of all art. Mr..
Bryan's fearless address in
defense of God and the Bible did
perfect justice to the paintings
with which it was accompanied.
One of the attractive features of
the evening was a song by Ora
Adams, open my eyes that |
may see. To those who took her
songful prayer to heart, Christ
was induced with new and soulful
enchantment and all must have
been carried to new heaven and
new earth for the old had
passed away. Ora was accom-
panied on the organ by Freddie
Murphy. The collection amount
ed to almost $500. The rental
charges were $1,000 and the
balance was contributed by a
donar to the church. The heart

No representatives of these agen-
cies We're placed on the organiza-
ton committee because it was
felt that the purposes of the CON-
mittee would be better served If
its membership was confined to
those actually concerned with
potato growing, financing and
marketing.
Minnesota leaders are greatly
encouraged because Mr.. Rubinow
has expressed his willingness to
undertake the work. A small
group met with him last week
and he did not give them a defn-
lite answer at that time because
his plans called for field work in
New York.
Mr.. Rubinow has just COM
pleted organization of the Maine
potato growers where in three
months, he assisted leaders there
in signing up rs per cent Of all
the potato acreage in the famous
Aroostool potato section. The
campaign started with $4,000
acres as its goal. This was reach
ed well in advance of the date
set for closing the campaign and
on March 1, when Mr.. Rubinow
completed his contract, farmers
were signing up at the rate Of
more than 1000 acres a day.
| The Maine campaign was car
