again by the pageant coach. Miss

was to be received in silence, that
applause was to be omitted and that
the closing scenes, in order to i'm
press the reverence of the story,
were to be watched most attentively.
The story Of the pageant was about
the daughter of missionaries, who
after graduating from college, went
to India to visit her parents. There
she was impressed by the great need
of missionaries and some one to care
for the sick. She gave UP her plan
to return to New ork and take up
interior decorating. And the closing
of the story shows her office, now
that Of n doctor. filled with the sick
and the ailing, who are being cured
! and cheered.
The story Is a most stirring one
and the lesson a forccful one. Great
credit is due the coach. Miss Tolman.

bringing out the true worth of the

ing'S pageant
4 pray and read the Bible every
day: nothing else will ever make
YOUR life then an understanding of
the Scripture, Old and New Tesla
ment. / love the Old Testament. I
have absolute contempt for the man
who thinks the Old Testament is
not to use. 1t shows the early under
standing of man of n God. In his
crude way. There are many stories
in the Old Testament which cannot
be read and should not be read In
such an audience as this: for in
stance. the story of Abraham and his
wife. Sarah.
"Some say that the psalms are
most righteous passion, l say some

sion. But it is good for us to know

| learning of man toward religion. But
why question them. Close the book.
| They are the crude conception OF
God and morality.
IF we know the road along which
we have come we stand pretty
| good chance of getting along the
rest Of the road. The Lord hates
sin, but he loves the sinner. We
have to have Il Bible that tells the
gradual story of mans discovery of

II don't care if the world was
created in six or 600 days. But it
makes all the difference If l find
behind the world. God. l don't care
If Jonah was transported to foreign
shores in the belly of whale. to
carry on missionary work. But l do
care If you dig down in your pockets
and furnish the means OF our mis-
sionaries Of getting to the foreign

II don't care II the ravens did come

. happy gathering. The basement of
the church was filled with long
tables. loaded with good things to
eat. There was a big crowd and
everyone did ample justice to the
delicious rerast of home cooked
foods, brought before them by a
skilful corps of Mattresses.
After adequate appreciation of the
banquet. the chairs were pushed
back from the tables and the fun
he~an. President Pendleton. in the
role of POSTMASTER. Judge and jury,
brought the assemblaEe to order.
Then the trouble started. 1t APP
peared that Neal Donohue was the
bone of contention. In fact the most
of the talk was concerning him.
Someone suggested that he run for
Legislature And the spirit of fun
ran high. What wasn't said about the
blushing Neal wasn't worth saying.
d. Saunders Patterson had great
deal to say, Mr.. Vandersall also got
his oar in and Pew. Charles Mac
Donald also added to the fuel.
They were very frank in their rea-
sons why Donohue should and
should not be elected to the Legis-
lature. After all was said and done.

Defined Clearly by
Supt. Vandersall

THE Greatest Things in Christian
Endeavor," Stanley 3. Vandersall,
Alumni Superintendent of the L. s.
c. E. took for his subject, in speak
ing before the Christian Endeavor
State conference, Saturday after
noon at o'clock. He struck at the
keynote of the convention, outlining
in most comprehensive manner,
the true purpose of the Christian
Endeavor Union, laying before his
listeners, the reasons for the c. E
existence. why it should be carried
on and what it should accomplish.
Mr.. Nandersall outlined his adj
dress as follows:
1t is n movement designed for
young people and makes it's appeal
through the channels which appeal
to youth.
1t is an Endeavor society, that Is,
it believes in attaining success by
continual striving.
1t is interdenominational and is
largely used to bring the churches
nearer together.
1t establishes wonderful and last
, ing friendships.
| 1t is international in it's spread,
reaching to every land where the
church has gone.
1t promotes program of success
by individual responsibility. Each
member has something to do.
1t is continually showing the value
of conventions and conferences
1t gives training in executive
leadership. in handling committees
and conducting meetings.
1t is the training school in Christ
ian expression. Millions of young
people have learned how in Christ
ian Endeavor. to speak. pray and
serve the larger interests of the
Kingdom.
1t leads Young PEOPLE to strive for
their ideals and thus contributes re-
Cruits for all phases of Christian &C
tivity.
