One Sunday's Observations. t
The Baptist chuch is witnessing
overflow congregations at most
of their services now, partly thel
t effect of the 75 Million Campaign
t which revived the work in every
department; but due in large part
B to the beautiful music which
a Prof. Massey as director of the
choir, presents at the preaching
t hour at both services on Sunday.
The choir is getting splendid
I training under the director and
congregational singing is being
I encouraged more than formerly,
but in addition to this there are
I well trained voices for duets, a
mixed quartette, with violin and
piano acoompaniaments, violin
principal and second and
beautiful violin solos, also piano
selections, with violin second.
Really wonderful music for a
church of this size. The people h
are eincere in their appreciation a
too, as evidenced by the crowded 8
house Sunday morning and eve
ning, the good congregations e
proving such an inspiration to v
the pastor that unconsciously he 1
rose to meet the demand and de. r
live ed two splendid sermons in a
the asy.
It would not be alltogether fair a
to omit comment on the growth
and improvement in the Sunday
School, records showing an at- a
tendance Sunday of 211 enrolled e
members. The attention of the if
whole church is centered on the 6
Primary Department under Mrs.
John Love where the five grades i
are equipped with sand tables, ti
building material, colors, cut. i
outs, nature specimens, charts,
maps, bAby organs etc., for teach
ing the bible lessons suitably for o
the variouse grades, eight teach. d
ers aid helpers being employed it
in this department. Mrs. Love is a
a marvelous christian leader and
:results are showing it. Visitors 1
are welconed to witness this un- a
usual work and a visit to the de- t
partment will bea treat to anyone i
interested in the little tots.

Why is A
S. Headache?
Various Causes for this common
Affliction
, Anemia or Bloodlessness a Very
Common Cause
Pepto-Mangan Overcomes Ane.
mitt and Tends to Prevent
Headaches
When one has an occasional
3 headache it is usually due to I
some transient or passing cause,
1 such as indigestion, eye-strain,
over-tiredness, etc. When, how- .
ever, one suffers from frequent 1
periodic headaches there is al
> ways some special reasons for it.
a Among the most common of such
reasons is Anemia or Bloodless
ness. This condition is especi- ,
ally frequeut among girls and
young women and those whose
r occupations or habits of life keep F
them too much indoors. The one k
important necessity in such a
cases is to build up the quantity t
and quality of the weak and wat , 1
I ery blood. Gude's Pepto-Mangan
is exceptionally valuable for this 8
purpose. It increases the num
ber and improves the quality of I
the red blood cells, those vital
little bodies which carry nutri
tion to all parts of the body. It
improves the appetite, imparts
color to the face, and restores
health and strength to the body
generally. After a short course
of Pepto Mangan the headaches
decrease in frequency and sever- 8
ity, and fipally disappear, if they
are due to Knemia. Pepto-Man- p
gan may be had either in liquid c
or tablet form, as preferred. f
J When buying Pepto-Madhgan be d
sure the name "Gude's" is on a
the package. Without "Gude's"
it is not.Pepto-Mangan.--Adv.

During his administration as President,
and afterwards, Mr. Roosevelt has stead
fastlº, and forcefully advocated the urgent
necessity of national conservation, both as
a method of "preparedness" and as a logical
part of the natural expansion of the nation.
Conservation, as Mr. Roosevelt has so
clearly pointed out, is absolutely essential to
expansion and continued welfare, and this
is as true of individuals as it is of the nation.
Conservation means, in a few words, the saving of
resources-your resources ale your funds-your personal
progress or expansion will depend absolutely on how you
save your money.
A savings account in this tank would be a valuable
asset to you.
