hard surfacing the main
highways, it is a debatable
question whether it is not
more economical to macada­
mize and expend a certain
amount every year on main­
tenance. It costs $30,000 to
construct a mile of hard sur­
face road. Of course, the
amount of travel and clima­
tic conditions must be taken
into consideration, but there
are those who are inclined to
think more roads could be1
built by not expending so
much money on hard sur­
facing and more for maca­
dam, with proper yearly
maintenance.

CHURCHLESS CHILDREN
«
There are twenty-five million boy»
and girls outside of the Sunday
School in this country. Every child in
America should be in some Sunday
School
every’ Sunday
morning.
Everv child should be accompanied to
Sunday School by his parents.
The mother who doesn't bring her
child into the world dedicated to God
has committed a crime against the
child. The father who doesn't lead
his child to the altar of worship, rev­
erence, and devotion has committed a
crime against his child and against
•ociety; for he has teft out of the
child’s training the greatest factor.
Parents who refuse to bring their
children to church, and who refuse to
allow their children to unite with the
church and become devout Christian
workers are stumbling blocks; they
are curses to their children.
There is but oae remedy for the
Condition m this country, and that is
salvation by Jesus Christ There is
but one place in which that salvation
can be found, and that is in God’s in­
fallible Word. There is but one in­
stitution authorized to teach that
Word, namely the orthodox Christian
church.
Every child should be in Sunday
School »nd in the church pew on Sun­
day morning sitting beside hts parents.
Children are never too young to be
eaved. ’-ut if they are neglected and
grow to be .kl men and women hard­
ened ia am they ma> become loo old
to be saved. It is extremely expensive
to the government for a child to
grow to be old in sin and crime. It
costs millions to save an old man
from the error of his way. A child
can be saved at the threshold of child­
hood and thus save his soul and so­
ciety untold expense.
The father who uses his automobile
on Sunday to take his child away
from the church not only breaks the
Ten Commandments, but he is a curse
to the child and a menace to this gov­
ernment.
The father who spends his Sunday
on the golf links is a fraud so far as
a religious influence is concerned, and
he is a menace to the spiritual devel­
opment of his child.
It is the business of the father to be
in the Sunday School with his child,
and it is the business of the child to
be in the church pew by the side of
his father.
a
Why do people neglect to bring
their children to Christ arid into the
church? Such parents and such ne­
glect are bringing untold sorrow and
expense and reflection upon this coun­
try. The juvenile courts and the
penal institutions are full of the
children who come from such homes.
Parents, you are either a curse or a
blessing to your childrm. If you
neglect your Sunday duty you are a
curse to them. Children ought to be
in the Sunday School and church if
the nation is to be saved.

The Genie of the Wires
Aladdin summoned the genie of the lamp and
any wish was immediately gratified.
At your command there is the genie of the wires.
He will take your voice instantly—without regard
to distance—wherever you may desire to send it.
You are familiar with the conveniences of local
telephone service, but have you ever thought of
the pleasure or profit available in the use of the
long distance lines?
The genie of the lamp was the servant of a single
individual. The genie of the wires will respond to
the call of every telephone user.
Every Bell telephone is a Long Distance station.

Fame is a wonderful thing. Think of the bird that first con­
ceived the notion of starting a fire to keep warm before there
was any fire. You know his name, of course. Then there was
the boy who really owns all the gold in the world, the fellow who
looked at a mountain, saw there was some stone in it, dug up
the stone, saw there was metal in the stone and figured out how
to get the metal out of the stone. You remember who he was,
too. And the other boy, what’/his name—the chap tha. fixed
out words that carried meaning, and spoke them at the rest of
the gang so they could all converse? Every body knows who
he was. -There’s no use talkin' It's very important to get your
namq ¡o the paper an’ get a reputation.
