Polk was the only county in the state that Ben
Olcott did not carry. We mention this so that
she ' may feel ashamed of herself.
Uncle Sam is having- difficulty in getting
soldiers and it appears to us that to be consistent
a "preparedness" parade'ought to march to a re

Tuxedo Nights
by Walt Mason
When the day's work's done, and the gtxl old sun
has sunk, in the well known West, then I stretch my
form by the fireside warm, I sit at my ease mui rest.
Then I take my pipe which is mildly ripe, ns the pipes
of good smokers are, with a chort'Iu j soul then ( fill
its bowl front my glass Tuxedo jar. And I : moktf at
ease, and my trouble fl-es to
the place where dond troubles
go; tmd my worries seem, in
my waking dream no longer to
have a show. And I say, "In
deed, it's a noble weed that
drives all the ghost i av.ay, and
si! I

clamps the IhS on the cares
that skid around throu;;h the
busy day. The worries and
woes and such things as those
m the daytime leave their scar, but theit-'s rest at
night and a calm delight in my
glass Tuxlo jar." C&v3J

vice will bo conducted. A speaker of
note from Portland will preach.
At 7 p m. the Epworth League will

At 8 p. ro. a fine old song servii e will
be eondueted in which everyone pre
sent will sing "my favorite hymn." Of
course we do not mean to say that 200
hymns will be sung, but the following
is the program of the favorite hymns
that have been handed in. They are
the grand hymns of the Christian
church. The authors are numbered In
all churches:
Voluntary.
"0 for a Thousand Tongues to Sing."

Crown?"
Ansouncements, offering, offertory.

Address by the pastor, "The Place of
Music in the Life of Man."
"Joy to the World "
"How Sweet the Name of Jesus

"Nearer, My God, to Thee." .
"Some Day the Silver Cord
Break."
"Fade, Fade Each Earthly Joy."

Bsnsdiction, recessional.
The pastor as he announces each
hymn will tell the story of the hymn,

This will be a most Inspirational ser
vice. You will get much from it. Plan
right now to spend next Sunday eve
