of Bishop WiHiam T. Manning has
been added. He requested the Protes-

“The terrible characters of certain | (Jklahoma, who mysteriously disap-
playa from the moral point of view

Bishop Manning said.
The bishop refused Ito say what ac-
tion he would take if the social servv

his complaints.

sion’s /indings,” he ^aid, ’nor shall

have complained.”

The other day whete we felt sad,
We met a laughing little lad
Whose rosy cheeks attention tore
From worldly cares that only bore.
We stopped to asH this playful child
With Infant Christiike features mild:
"Who gave to you those cheeks of rose?”
He smiled then said, "Dod dave me dose.’’
A little child, we’re often told,
Shall lead us to the Gates of Gold.
*Tis this that tells,the reason why
Our tiny tots the knots untie
• Of problems that comfound the wise,
Whose sin-stained-souls all Truths disguise
Now tell me, why do you suppose
That child just said, "Dod dave me dose"?
In bed of pain a neighbor lies, »
While others, worse, deprived of eyes,
Of hands, of feet, of. tongue, of mind
Still smile a smile that says they find
A peaceful joy that comes from God,
To Whose directing will they nod.
With thanks for health, our food and clothes,
Let’s join this child, "Dod dave me dose.”

Washington, Nov. 29.— (Associated
Press.)—Whether there will be a de-
lay in the organization of the house
and senate appeared today to depend
largely on the attitude to be taken
by the progressive blocs.
Withdrawal of Representative Gra-
ham of Illinois (from the majority
leadership fight in the house served
to remove differences among the reg-
ular Republicans but the demands of
the progressives still were unsatis-
fied and their leaders were insistent
that they would be pressed even to
the extent of block house organiza-
tions.
While Republican leaders in the
senate have decided not to raise the
issue of election of a president pro
tern, Democratic leaders were pre-
pared to go through with their orig-
inal plan of selecting a full senate
ticket and to see kits election.
This being a holiday, there was
little activity in the capital but the
informal conferences which are beign
held regarding organization of the
house and senate resumed to-
morrow.

was at a standstill preparing to back $
into the Y at the station when the
Southern train, an extra from Jack-
sonville to Kansas City, crashed i*to

Washington, Nov. 29.— (Associated
Press.)—Practical application of "pad-
lock” provisions of the prohibition
law, invocation of the tariff act and
the cooperation of “concerted forces”
enlisted against violators, Attorney
General Daugherty declared in a
statement published today, have
brought about “advancing results” in
the enforcement efforts of the de-
partment of justice.
Respect fo rthe prohibition laws,
Mr. Daugherty said, ia increasing and
assistance in enforcement by state
officials has been “particularly mark-
ed since the recent conference of gov-
ernors called by President Coolidge.”

“1/ you want to see the brothers

Rev. Cole than stated that some men
will spend thousands of dollars on
themselves every year and yet there
isn’t enough people in town to per-
suade them to donate $100 to their
church. He illustrated his point with
a story of a stingy man.
“Some fellows tmnk a preacher’s
job is easy, but I make the proposi-
tion of exchanging places for one
month with any business man. I
don’t want him to tell me anything
about what his daily procedure is
and I won’t tell him how to prepare
hie sermons. We’ll just exchange
places for one month and at the end
of that time, see who fared the best.
I know that he will be willing to
take back his old job.
“If you were a preacher, what
would you preach on next Sunday?
Did you ever atop to think about
that? The minister must prepare
two sermons for every Sunday and
make them so is teres ting that his
congregation will attend services regu-
larly. Some times a fellow comes
along and asks me why I don't
pleach about certain things. The
minister is always glad to get sug-
gestions. We like to know what you
are thinking about. If the minister
and the congregation could just get
closer together along those lines, the
church and religion generally would
make faster progress.”
Rev. Cole discussed the Rotary
motto: “Service Above Self;” and re-
fated Biblical history to prove the
fallacy of placing self above serv-
ice. “We make our own bell and
pretty muchly fashion our own
heaven,” he aaid.
