New York aboard the Celtic.
It isn't the Town It's You!
If you want to live in the kind of a town
Like the kind of a town you like,
You needn't slip your clothes in a grip
And start on a long, long hike.
You'll only find what you left behind,
For there's nothing that's really new,
It's a knock at yourself when you knock your town
It isn't the town it's you!
II
A
Real towns arc not made by men afraid
Lest somebody else gets ahead,
When everyone works and nobody shirks
You can raise a town from the dead.
And if while you make your personal stake,
Your neighbors can make one, too,
Your town will be what you want to see
It isn't the town it's you!

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON FOR
OCTOBER 12, 1919:
"FISHERS OF MEN."
Golden Text: "Jesus said unto
them, Come ye after me, and I will
make you to become Ushers of men."
Mark 1:17.
Lesson: Mark 1:14-20.
I. Men Who Enlisted.
Our-.nation has been profoundly
stirred in the last three years by
the voluntary enlistment of thou
sands of men in dangerous service
for the sake of humanity. It has
revealed depths of heroism which
were latent and unexpressed. Now
we are discovering that as these men
return they have had a liberal edu
cation. Travel and danger and dis
cipline have left their mark upon
them. In the main they are better,
stronger and more efficient men
than they were before. They show
the results of their contact with a
great cause and service for it.
Two men enlisted with Jesus
Christ one day. They were simple
Galilean fishermen. They had no
special .education. They had not
been travellers in distant lands.
They were provincial in their out
look and ordinary in their living.
But after they had been with Jesus
Christ, striking changes were evi
deniin their Jives. Not only was
their character transformed but
their service was most efficient and
remarkable. They became centers of
powerful influence by which other
men were caught, in the net of u
noDio loyalty to Jesus Uirist. There
in was fulfilled His promise to them:
"Come ye after me arid I will make
you to become fishers of men,"
There is no-oiobler task than to be
able to influence others.
IL "Make You to Become."
We are always becoming one
thing or another. The process goes
on through the years. Today has its
hope for each one of us and fresh
encouragement for every day. It is
almost possible to become anything
in the world which is worth while.
Particularly is this true in the realm
of character and of helpfulness. The
line purpose of Jesus is to help us
"to become." If we are willing to
commit our lives to Him, He will
make us "to become" influential fac
tors in making the world better.
III. The Traveler's Trail.
A traveler was following a trail
through the mountains when sud
denly it came to an end. What
should he do? In great bewilder
ment he looked around. On the face
of a cliff he saw a painted finger
which pointed forward. He knew
that mark had been made to guide
travelers, and he followed where it
pointed. Before it was, out of sight
Denina, anouier rocK witn req let
tering came into view, and in this
way lie was guided until he. reached
'his journey's end. Is not this a pic
ture of the manner in which the
way to Christ, has been pointed out
down through the ages? While he
lived men followed him as that trav
eler followed the trail, and since his
earthly life ended, his disciples have
blazed the pathway which leads to
him and eternal life.
I "The Master's plan and what a
'genius of a' plan, it is is this" (Dr.
S. D. Gordon writes in Quiet Talks
'on Power), "that the world should
be won, not by the preachers
though we must have these men of
j God for teaching and leadership
out ny everyone who knows the
story of Jesus telling someone, apd
telling 'not only with his lips earn
estly and tactfully, but telling with
his life. That is the Master's plan
of campaign for this World. And it
makes a great difference to him and
to the world outside whether you
and I are living the story of his love
and power among men or not."

If You Are Looking for Remarkable
Value in a High-Grade Piano,
Be Sure to Attend
Crinnell Bros.' Big Sale
of Summer Rental SL Pianos
This exceptional opportunity will be open to you for only a very short time.
While but fairly started, the sale is already a big success. Many Pianos have been
sold and the activity in our store indicates a quick clearance of the entire sale stock.
People do not have to be urged to buy Bargains such as we are offering.
The Pianos actually sell themselves, and you will surely want one, too, when
you see what splendid instruments they are and how very much below the
usual prices they are going.
The basis of this great sale is the very extensive Summer rental business
done by our twenty-six stores. Altogether we had more than one thousand
Pianos out on rent during the past Summer our unrivaled facilities and con
veniently located stores making our House undisputed piano rental headquar
ters. Many of these Pianos were rested in fine Summer residences, hotels,
clubhouses, etc. They come back to us at the commencement of the musical
season when our stores are already well stocked with .new Pianos the very
finest products of the celebrated manufacturers we represent, shipped us spe
cially for our Fall display.
In order to avoid the overcrowding of our warerooms, or the necessity of
storing the returned rental Pianos, we are closing them out in a quick, decisive
sale at SENSATIONALLY LOW PRICES every instrument marked far be
low its actual worth and representing value which, in all probability, will never
again be duplicated.
You Save AH the Rent d
Not only are we giving quick buyers the benefit of every dollar paid for the rental of these Pianos, but we are
making even greater reductions in order to clear them off our floors in the shortest time possible. And these reduc
tions are made from the prices of the Pianos last Spring, which actually means A DOUBLE SAVING, as all Pianos
have advanced considerably since then. When you consider that the cost of materials and labor is continually climb
ing and that Piano prices are bound to go still higher in the near future, you surely must realize that this sale is a
REAL OPPORTUNITY TO SAVE not a paltry few dollars, but A CONSIDERABLE SUM, which no prudent piano
buyer can afford to overlook.
Iiraddition to the rental Pianos we are including in the Sale all exchanged, shopworn
and sample Pianos and Player-Pianos on our floors. You will find a splendid variety of
instruments to choose from if you come quickly many different makes and styles, at a
wide range of prices. When you see what excellent Pianos these are many of them ex
actly like new, all in splendid condition the low prices on the tags will amaze you and
you will lose no time in selecting one for your home.
