Addressing the assemblage of doctors and stu

Breathless-late for his appointment the
young Boston dentist burst in In his hand glass

spigot between his lips-instructs him to inhae.

The grim voice of surgeon breaking the news to
a patient: I'm afraid we'll have to operate"
OPERATE! hundred years ago, no other word
in the whole English language struck such cold,
steely terror into the heart of man. With eyes
wide open brain wide awake-every sense alive
every nerve alert-he'd be strapped to the
torture table, to struggle and scream, while burly
attendants assisted in holding him down.
But on one Friday morning on the 10Th Of
October 1916, the clock on the wall of Boston
hospitals operating theatre chimed the hour of
ten-and sounded the death knell of terror and
pain under the surgeons knife! Stretched on
the operating table the form of man.

Total war on PAIN!

1898-just 81 years after Ether was introduced
in surgical operations-is famous for another tr-
umph in the war against suffering and pain. For
a group of brilliant scientists discovered relief

colds, and muscular aches and pains . maladies
which cause even more suffering and more loss

bined. In 1898, these scientists discovered Aspirin.
Whenever men of medicine fight suffering and
pain, Bayer Aspirin is trusted not just for depend
ability but for the rapid relief it brings So for
lief that's reliable and also swift ask for Bayer
Aspirin by its full name. And be sure the tablets
you buy are stamped 'BAYER" the famous
name in Aspirin.

4 HAVE "A recipe for Amish bean
] soup. which came, suppose,
originally from Pennsylvania
along with the Amish who set
tied in northern Indiana. In talk
ing with these former neighbors
Of mine I heard often about THE
Bean Soup" they have at their
meetings and, from the look on
their faces when they mentioned
The Bean Soup" l wanted that
recipe. Information is very hard
10 get from The Kmish, but got
the recipe from a woman who Is
no longer "of the church" l
will use the words of the letter.
I'VE take (for a home dinner)
a pint or more of navy beans;
simmer them in water 20 cover
until nice and done. While they
simmer, season with salt and a
pound OF butter. Then add a
gallon of whole milk or milk and
cream. Let just come TO a boil.
remove from fire and add a
good sized loaf OF sliced broken
bread, stir a little TO get bread,
beans and milk mixed and IL is
ready 20 eat. This amount makes
a gallon and a half of soup"
At this point began dividing
mentally, for my family is small,
but the letter went on:
But oh. this is not nearly
enough 10 feed the Amish church.
II you use gallon Of navy
beans gallons Of milk. 8 loayes
of bread. you will have about
u gallons OF soup, but that will
not be enough unless the church
happens 20 be a small group.
When the group near Nap
panec (Indiana) have their
church, they use 40 loaves of

Pres byterian Church Membership 2,O5 1 ,861
Largest Recorded in 237 Wears in United States;
 lI,360 Increase Noted Over Last Year

Philadelphia, Sept. 1l--The largest membership recorded during the 2S7 years Of organized Presbyterianisrn in this country, 2,05l ,86i cornfnuni- cant members, IS reported this year by the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America.
 The figure is given in the annual statistics of the church, made pub- lic here today by the Rev. Dr. Lewis Seymour Nudge, the acting stated clerk of the Presbyterian General Assembly, in the absence overseas of the state clerk, the Rev. pr. Wil- liam Barrow Pugh. Dr. Pugh, as chairman of the general commission on Army and Navy chaplair1S, is on an extended tour of war theaters. He is visiting Protestant chaplaiH1s and service men in Europe, Africa, Asia and North and South America.
 During the church year ended March Si, 104S, the statistics show there was a net increase of 1l,36e members over last years total of g. 040, 0,4o2, as indicated above.
 Membership statistics in the Pres- byterian church, according to Its strict rules on the subject, are based solely on the number of communi- cants who are in full standing. They do not include every person who has been baptized, nor are they based on what is called church ''pop- ulation." This broader constituency of the church, the Presbyterian pop ulation, Is estimated by the state clerk at 5000. 900.
