Sunday. September 25th, at MI.
Zion A. NJ. f. Church there was a
full Sunday School and full house
at II A. NJ. DR.. j. 5. Hatcher spoke
on The Ministry of Healing. A
great message, in which he proved
from the Book that God often heals
through remedies, often without
remedies. often in direct answer to
"the prayer of faith, often he will
not heal in answer to remedies, faith
or prayer. and lastly that He heals
the "broken in heart and bindeth up
their wounds" The Holy Spirit &C
companied the message in great
power, and two souls were happily
converted, Miss Milena BurreH and
Miss Claudine Banks.
At 1880 P. NJ. the church was
filled. Candle Light Service, uniquely
arranged by Mrs. Gertrude Hatcher
was held. The ladies laid on the

Builders of Character

I6aCnerS-
It is through their efforts that ideals perpetu
ated; that vision is inculcated; that character is
builded
It is the teachers task to mold plastic childhood;
to COOL by resort to reason, the fevered pulses of
youth And generally speaking, the teacher does the
job amazingly well, against heavy odds.
Why do we say, against heavy odds?'
Because youth is rampant. Youth is not quite
sure where it is headed but it wants to be on it's
way. 1t wants to be up and doingdoing this, doing
that-dong right, doing wrong according to it's lights
We are in sympathy with youth How the old
world would totter into decay were youth not at
hand to cheer and dream for it and supply red
puscles for it's ever whitening blood stream.
"But all the dreams of youth do not come true"
you say.
Oh, what of that!
"And the ideals upon which youth feasts worship
full eyes crumble under the hammer of Time-of
time, the uncomfortable iconoclast of the ages"
And what of that!
If, indeed, ideals do crumble ideals that
better suit changed conditions nulst be raised, for
civilization must march toward an inspiring goal, if
civilization is to live
Only Youth the dreamer and the idealist saves us
from surrender to the sordid in a commercialized
and mercenary world
Well, the guiding hand of your boy and boy; of
your girl and our girl is the good teacher who dedi-
Gates life to the unselfish task of building character
And character is an edifce that even death can not
destroy, for who will say that Lincoln or Jefferson
long in the tomb has ceased to exert tremendous in
duence in an age SO changed?
Perhaps. neighbor, you say: II knew how to rear

During the latter part Of his life
j. Otis Adams painted chiefly in
Florida and in Michigan. From
Florida in the winter to Leland,
Mich, in the summer was the pill
grimage he made each year for sew
eral years and the pictures that he
painted are true chronicles OF the
natural beauties of these widely
separated regionsl
In the Memorial Exhibition of his
works, these paintings are listed in
the catalog as belonging to his last
period, and some very fine examples
are shown. Florida has come SO
conspicuously before the public in
the last few years and diligent press
agents have circulated such wealth
of advertising, showing Spanish
villas and hotels and palm trees
and miles of sunny beach, that the
Florida pictured by Mr.. Adams
seems an entirely different place.
He was interested in the wooded
country, the ancient trees. the hang
ing moss. A group of these land
scapeS is arranged on the south wall
of Gallery TX. One avenue of palms
is included-straight trunks and
feathery foliage of light yellow
green, with a roadway of white
sand.
There is one study Of the salt
marshes near New Smyrna, and
there is Macgargee's Bay seen
through a frame of wide-branched
trees draped in gray moss. The
path that leads through the edge
of the woodland to Salt Lake is
portrayed in grays and soft green's
and tans with pale sky.
The other canvases show wood III
teriors: Tall closely set tree trunks
and branches trailing long festoons
of moss, painted in a variety of
light effects.
"Ronnock Park, New Smyrna"
holds a twilight dimnesS, all blue
green's and lavender grays; Winter
in Florida" and Florida Moss" con-
tain bright patches of yellow sun
light f1ltering through the trees, and
Edge of the Woods" and WON
derwoods, st. Petersburg" treat a
difficult problem; old forests with
warm sunset radiance falling on
their trailing fringes of mess.
Among the Michigan paintings are
bright woodland scenes and many
studies of the lake.
The lake at the sunset hour was a
favorite subject-several canvases
are filled by splendid sky reflected
in the ripping waves. There is one
very lovely study of moon-set.
A little crescent moon follows the
departed sun down the still rosy
western sky and it spreads a path of
shimmering light on the dark water.
This painting hangs facing the door
on the east wall of the small octa-
gonal room, Gallery K, and can be
seen from the far end of the lone
gallery to the west, and it and the
other painting on that wall, form
one of the important sections of he
exhibition.

New York'S Budget

New York City's budget for
1928, as tentatively approved by
the board of estimate, will be
$511 100000.
This is not only more than the
budget of any state, but more
than the combined budget Of the
three largest States.
What is even more startling, 1t
is a greater amount of money
than was required to run the Fed
eral Government only forty years
ago.
With the exception of few
great nations, New York City has
become the most extensive politi-
cal institution on earth.
In this respect, as well as IN
many others, it reveals what a
stupendous part the municipality
plays in modern life. q

Weak Merchant Marine

Congressman Sol Bloom, just
home from Europe and inspired
by his experience as paSsen-
ger on the Leviathan, wants to
do something for our merchant
marine.
He does not believe this coun-
try occupies the place it should
on the sea, and he is right.
1t is a sad commentary on our
conception of what is essential to
national progress and national
defense that we should permit
impoverished Germany to outstrip
us in ship construction.
AS Congressman Bloom points
out, though we are doing the
worlds business. we are carry
