Friday Ladies' Aid of Christian Church - Mrs. Alva Baker Monday. Delta Theta Tau — Home of Mi s Agnes Kohne. Tuesday Tri Kappas—Mrs. Felix Holthouse. Speakers Tell of Movement (Continued From Page One) on the part of many churches to aua t themselves to urban conditions. With a membership that is largely rural, the city church is still as a whole ruralminded. and therefore has been unable to adapt itself to groups of people th 4 are essentially of the city.’’ “Evangelism from Easter to Pentecost” was the subject of the address delivered by Rev. A. W. Conn of Marion at the Inter-Church World Movement conference attended by countv church workers at Decatur yesterday. Mr. Conn said: “Inter-Church World Movement presents to every Protestant church in America the intensify and multiply its evangelistic endeavor in the fifty days after Easter, which will bring a spiritual climax in the anniversary day of Pentecost. May 23, 1920. The real object of the hit i Church World Movement is to make lisciples for Christ. If we fail in this , purpose, we fail utterly. The evangelistic program of the nterChurch World Movement after Easter calls for a simultaneous campaign of personal evangelism in the part of every cooperating church, which will include, county by count' through the whole nation, a house to house visitation during the week of May 16-22. to culminate in the anni versary of Pentecost Sunday. May 23. ■ America needs nothing more than a ■ modern Pentecost. I ‘ The program of evangelism is r. campaign of religious conservation, to express a neighborly and Christian interest in the welfare of every household to the work of the church of their "hoice in that community. It will be a campaign of comtm n daticn for and for church fel 1< ship. The campaign will he car.”>l on in the name of all the church- '*£■ in the community. I A good and very appreciative audience gathered for the evening meetn.g at The devotional service iv. as conducted by Rev. McCorklin o' leneva. Mrs. O H Griest delivered. ■ brilliant address on ‘ Cooperation.” .She is an orator with a silver tongue -mi held the audience in rapt attention. She said that one thousand mil- . in people have never heard the name of Chris' As many as the minutes that have passed since Christ was ’ cm. While the entire force of Christian workers on the field today only i quals the number of minutes in a . week. The Student Volunteer Movement for missions challenges the bnsmess men of America. They say, “We will give our lives if you yill give your money." We have neglected our duty as Christians terribly, not because we are bad. or want others to be ’ bad but because we have not thought 1 ncr known. We are paying splendid’, educated and able missionaries pit! fully small salaries, and thus needlessly adding tn their already stupendous sacrifices. The call is for more men and women to serve and mono" to support them. The excellent pictures which followed showed dear!"! the world situation with its great chai-' lenge to every follower to Christ. I So.era' city ami county ministers ir- luding Rev. L. w. Stolte. Rev. Chas' Ttnkham and Rev. c. L. Hanev. grentlv regretted their inability tn attend op account of their own conferences meeting this week. Yet they are strongly in favor of the movement. R“v. D. O. Wise, of Berne, attended the conference as special representative of the Evangelical conference now meeting here, and expressed their hearty approval. x i A meeting to follow up the conference of yesterday in a practical way has been arranged, to meet at the Presbyterian chinch on Sunday afternoon at 3:30. At that, time the movement will be fully explained, the plans for our local cooperation will be carefully studied, and questions answered. All who have any part in the financed drive in each of the cooperating churches are especially urged to he present. Mr M. Kirsch will preside. Berne. Genea. Monroe and Pleasant I Mills are requested to make vimiUr plans to complete their local organization. * —

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —The Services of Women in National Ijeadershlp The book of Judges covers the period from the conquest of Canaan ami death of Joshua to the judgeship of . Samuel. While Joshua and tbe elders of his generation lived the people In some measure remained faithful to God In obedience to his Word, but th* ’ very next generation went Inta aposi tasy. Their declension may be accounted for as follows: 1. Failure to drive the Canaanites from their midst. < 2. Their amalgamation with the Canaanites. Their close proximity to the people had Its leavening effect, for they soon Intermarried with the heatht en. Tolerance with the enemy is closely followed by union therewith, and quick disaster comes in the wake of such union. 3. Idolatry. Intermarriage with the heathen was soon followed by the worship of the heathen gods. Thus Israel's power was gradually weakened, so that instead of being conquerors they became the conquered. In chapter 2:6-9 is given a synopsis of the book of Judges: 1. The sin of the people (vv. 6-13). 2. God's judgment for their sin (vv. 14. 15). 3. Repentance of the people (3:9). 4. God’s deliverance at the bands of the judges (vv. 16-19). A repetition of sin. oppression by the , enemy, repentance on the part of the people, and God's deliverance. Is the story of the book of Judges. I. The Judgeship of Deborah (4: 4. 5). Uer name means “Bee," suggesting orderly instincts. As suggested by another. “She answered her name by her industry, sagacity, and great use to the public." ‘ The period was marked by awful oppression. The Israelites were helpless, for the enemy had 900 chariots of iron. Deborah was an unique character. God raised her up for such a time as this. Under a palm tree she held an ope* court for the administration of justice. , 11. Deborah Summons Barak (4: 6-10). Barak moans “lightning." Deborah, being a prophetess, was able to select the pian whose gifts would enable him to rally the forces needed to gain the victory over the formidable foe. 1. Deborah's vail (w. 6,7). It was God’s call through tier. She gave definite instruction as to tbe number of men and the strategy to be employed, assuring Barak that God would deliver Sisera. the captain of Jabib’s army, into Ids hand. 2. Barak's reply (v. 8). Expression of unwillingness to go unless Deborah n ould go with him should hardly be considered as cowardice or weakness, ■ as it is a well-recognized fact that tbe presence of a woman, especially the prophetess, would inspire courage on the part of the warriors. However, he should have believed God’s ability to ' give the victory without the aid of a ' woman. 1 3. Barak's rebuke (vv. 9, 10). De- ! borah yielded his request, but made it plain to him that It would detract from Ids honor as a conqueror, "for tbe Lord shall sell Sisera into the hand of a woman.” 111. The Defeat of Jabin's Army (vy. 11-16). Sisera. the captain, gathered a mighty army and went forth with full assurance of victory, but he made a I sad ndstake; he did not consider that | It was the Lord’s battle (v. 15). At the psychological moment Deborah gave I the signal- to charge, assuring Barak • that the Lord would give the Victory | (v. 14). Through supernatural Interposition the enemy became panicstricken (see 5:20). IV. Sisera Killed by a Woman (vv. 17-24). In his flight he took refuge in Jael's tent. Under the guise of friendship, I she committed the most heinous murder. She fastened his head to the ground by means of a tent pin. V. Deborah and Barak'e Song of Victory (chap. 5). I This was composed and sung In celebration of the marvelous victory which God had wrought. J . , .... .IM Robbing Real Inward Life.

“Talking about things that help people, I have just received a letter from my sister in Waterloo. lowa, telling me she had gained sixteen pounds in weight by taking Tanlac. | Said \. B. Steiner, St. Paul Minn, recently: "My sister was on a visit to me n short while ago. and as she was suf- ' sering from stomach trouble some one advised her to try Tanlac. which she lid. and as I saw the great benefit ; she was getting from it I decided to try it myself, for I had been troubled with my stomach for the past two years. I had a very poor appetite, and the little 1 did manage to eat | seemed to lodge right in the pit of | ay stomach and sour. I wotlld bloat terribly after eating and have the ■AOiVt sort of cramping pains in my 31omach. and at times Ihad such bad attacks of heartburn 1 would nearly co wild. M.v back gave me a lot of trouble, and I had such intense pains in the small of my back I could hardly .end over. To add to my other trou- ’ les, about two months ago I began I to suffer with rheumatism in my I houlder blades and arms which got i so bad 1 could hardly do my work and j could not even put on my coat with , out assistance. I was so nervous 1 could get but little sleep and would I roll and toss from one side of the bed . to the other all night long, and would > get up in the morning all tired out.! I was so badly run down and had lost ■ so much weight I was so weak 1 could ; hardly get about at all.” “Well, while 1 have only taken five i bottles of Tanlac iu all my improve ! ment is simply remarkable. I have’ such a good appetite, 1 am hungry all 1 the time, and m.v stomach is in such a splendid condition I can eat anything I want without suffering the least bit from it afterward. The pain.- | have ail gone out of my back and 1 j never have the least sign of the rheumatism. In fact. I never have an ache I or pain of any kind. 1 sleep as sound | as a log every night and have gained i in weight and strengfli until 1 can dot twice as much work as I could be-1 fore 1 bekan taking Tanlac. Yes, sir.; I can recommend Tanlac after what it has done for me. and I know it will do the same for others if they will only give it a fair trial.” Tanlac is sold in Decatur at Smith Yager and Falk’s, in Berne at Stengel i A- Craig s and in Geneva at F. C. Deitsch’s Drug Store. — AMERICAN LEGION NOTICE Tbe executive committee of Adams , Post No. 43 will meet in special aes-1 don Friday.
