TiruTTrtY, MAnm 22, "1023 CilSK URG MEDFORDH AXPS-ia IRK FOR SOULS Hased on the text, "The Spirit and the Drlde Say Come," Dr. S. J. Reld last evening at the First Baptist church said the natural tendency of man Is to go away from Cod, and not to come to Him. The world will never be saved till Christians say to the "unsaved, come t9 Jesus. Christians seem to have dumb devils In them. Until you can say to the man who has no religion, come, there Is nothing to your religion. Love can only show itself In giving. When God loves Ha says take. What Is It that stands be tween man and God? It Is sin, but it need not stand there. We are always trying to put the world right, and then It breaks out in iftbthet place. If we had no religion the country would go to hell. I be lieve that the missionary or a minis ter means more to this country than any institution. The evangelist closed his stirring message, which appealed to the hearts of his hearers by telling the story of a boy who had become so bad that the father ; had to send him away from home' telling him not to return. When in his wanderings the boy became sick the father went to him and placed a 1 letter under his pillow in which ho r told him when able to return home. The boy did so but with much hesi tancy. Entering his former home he expected the father to reprimand him for hlspast sins, but nothing was said. Doys passed and nothing was said of the past, and then it was that the boy saw that his father would never refer to his past and it completely won him over to the father,,seeing how great a father he had. So, said the speaker, is the way God the Father treats the sinner: When he comes God never refers to his past, but treats him as if he had never sinned. An appeal was made for the unconverted to come to God at the close of the service, which was the best attended one of the week. Each evening the numbers are growing.. . . The third address on the Pilgrim's Progress series illustrated with the stcreopticon was given as a prelude to the sermon, which was enjoyed by everybody. The community is missing much in not hearing Dr. Reld In these special pre-Easter service, which will culminate one week from Sunday with a great cantata by the choir and or chesira.

I4 No probability of early action by the Americnn government looking to recognition of the soviet was in dicated in Secretary Hughes' reply; Not only would it be a mistaken' pol icy, he declared, to give "encourage ment to repudiation and confisca tion," but ulso there should be "no the soviet authorities to visit upon encouragement to those efforts of the soviet authorities to visit Upon other peoples the disasters that' have overwhelmed the Russian people."

The French occupation of the Uubr by cutting down- production there has occasioned an expansion in American bituminous coal exports. The com merce department reported today 52 ships were chartered for the trnde between February 20 and March 12.J While the first flow of demnml usually supplied by the lttilir coal output has gone to British collerles. the department's study of the situa tion declared that Hritish export fn riliteis were being overstrained by the attempt to meet it. British coal production is now ranging about 5.500.000 tons n week, the statement continued, whieh is equivalent to the highest rank of pre-war years. The . Ruhr region, normally produced more than 13, 000.000 metric tons of coal annually, chiefly for German and Belgian con sumption. While American producers nro get ting some orders from Germany for coal, the department's study Indi cated that tho chief increase In de mand has been noted on the Italian and Argentino consumers, whose British coal supply Is being de creased.

And this, mind you, I in a play that has been called "the J greatest mystery play ever written" and hns proved the justice of the tie-, scrlptlon by runB of more than two years In Now York and over one year in Chicago.

Adv Lnurctte Taylor and "Peg o' My Heart," which opened a four days en gagement at the Page theatre yestor day, are a combination which Bhould prove mightily potent in any motion picture house lucky enough to secure them. To begin with, it may bo as sorted that tho screen lost a great star when Miss 'inylor decided to stick to the legitimate stage. Altho with her debut as Peg her motion pic ture offers ought certainly to bo re newed, for there are fow, if any artists of the cinema, who can compare with her, with tho possible exception of Pola Negri. Miss Taylor leads in Intelligence, In pantomime ability. In human under standing, in caprice nnd pathos, and one is driven to use again that word so much overworked by critics In just praise of this actress magnetism. Certainly no one olse ln the films could have encompassed Tog. The charm of the Irish girl requires Irish traits and comprehension for its delln lation, and these Miss Taylor hns in abundance, boginnlng with her Bonse of humor nnd ninlng the gamut thru heart-touching emotional capacity. In short, no prnlso Is too high for this Peg o' the screen. She is an artist par excellence. Stcnnicr AmIioic. BOSTON, March 22. The pteamer Texnn went aground half a mile cnt of Itlock Islnnd, 1!.
