I One of the greatest surprises that the Christian church of Decatur ever had was the serm,.n Thursday night on “Prayer” by Clyde Lee Fife, the head of the Fife Brothers' Evangelis-' tic company. It was something newon the subject and the young preacher in elegant attire and with grace and eloquence preached with a tenderness ' and conviction that moved the entire audience so that strong men wept out' loud. He skinned the church members. he defied the forces of unright- 1 eousness, he praised the good people who prayed to God and lived out the gospel regardless of their religious differences, and certainly convinced ; the people who were there that abso-, lutely nothing will go with God and right-thinking people but a religion lived out in daily life and above the reproach of the ungodly. The young man said In part: ■ "There are men in this town who will take undue advantage to make a nickel, who will take the name of God in vain and take bread out of the mouths of fatherless and helpless children to buy finery for lewd women and then on Sunday come up and sit on the front seat in church, pass around the bread and wine and lean In public prayer, with the blessings of God upon their lips and unclean - money in their pockets and follow all this with ‘Nearer, My God, to Thee,' sung from a hymn book tightly clutch-1 B ed in a red fist that has signed docu- ■ ments that have been a curse to (lie homes of this city. Such a man is a mill-stone about the neck of the church, a weight that will drown the kingdom of God in the despair of oblivion and of failure before our very . eves, while we look on in wonder and jftfc,; astonishment as to what can be the St matter. “You tell me how many homes in this town have the Bible read and | have family prayers once a day and I J will tell you what can be done here in | bringing this city to a better state of S affairs religiously. “There are men in this audience I that I dare say have not shed a peni- | tential tear for so long that their eyes i are too dry to wink. They have becomj so hard-hearted that they css <

' look a widow in the eye and rob her and never bat an eye any more than a snake would in looking at an August sun. Tell me that God will prosper and extend his kingdom In Deca- ' tur over such ns that. Not much. And | th* man out of the church that will do a thing like that is just as low down as the man in the church who would do it. "Now, if this is too hot for you to take right off the bat, you had better not stand so close or get a thicker mit. When I can’t tell the truth here in Decatur, I will move on to the next town. But while lam here, lam going to do my duty by you. i “The trouble is that this whole business is usually begun at the wrong end. Let the church get right first. Then people on the outside will hear you and you can speak with power. If you have a debt to pay, pay it or tell why you can't. It you have been in a family row over some foolishness, fix it up. If you have been at outs with some one in a business or church way, settle it now. Precious time is : being lost. Then you get down on 1 your knees and ask God to help you to never do that way again, and get up and live It out.” At the close of the sermon, the father of the young preacher led in pray!er and everybody came around and shook hands and pledged themselves I to the work of the meeting. It was the conviction of the preachers who , were present that a great revival of I religion is on. I Just before the sermon, the Fife ' quartet, composed of the father and three sons, sang “That Beautiful Land,” and Mr. Earl H. Fife sang a solo, “Doe J Jesus Care?” Tonight the ..soloists and quartet and orchestra will I give special music and the house 's ! not expected to contain the people. Tomorrow night the evangelists will give a concert and Bible lecture, to which the people are asked to bring a silver special offering for the support of the Fife company. Chairs have been secured to seat every available space in the building that all may have an opportunity to hear this noted com pany. TED RAMSEY ILL. Word from Mrs. Ted Ramsey of Fort Wayne is to the effect that her I husband is quite ill as the result of a ' cold with which he had been suffering since Sunday, which he contracted fol- | lowing the taking of a bath. He imi proved somewhat until Thursday when he was sent for to come to the WellsI Fargo Express company’s office and I open the safe, he being employed by that company, and from which he suf- ; sered a relapse, and he was very sick : at the time of writing to Mrs. Ramsey yesterday. I The Kirchner trial which has been ' in progress in the circuit court since ■ last Th”rsda- afternoon, will probably not Le concluded till Wednesday of next week, taking much longer than at first anticipated. The evidence of the defendants’ witnesses on their cross complaint was completed today, when i the plaintiff began the offering of evidence in answer to that of the defend- ’ ants’ cross-complaint. The suit is brought by Edward Kirchner against his daughter-in-law, Bertha Kirchner, and children, for the possession of a farm in Kirkland township.

A surprise by the outgoing officials will also be rendered, the plans at present being unknown. A good crowd is looked for. RED CROSS SEALS. The local sale of Red Cross Christmas seals continues with great numbers sold, the time having been extended to January Ist. The school children, in working for the vacuum cleaner offered by the McCrum-Howell company, aided materially in the sales, the chief work of which, however, was done under the direction of

the Tri-Kappa sorority. Between six and seven thousand seals have been sold in this city. DANTE’S INFERNO. The identical $100,900 production that played the Murat in Indianapolis ' early in the season for a week will bo! at tho Stay. For strange, startling, I sensational and awe-inspiring situa-1 tlons and effects, this reproduction of the great Italian poem is pronounced by the best of critics to be unequaled on the stage today. New York, Dec. 29—(Special to Daily Democrat) —“We are teaching too much in the public schools to make good citizens, citizens who will think sufficiently to vote and at the same time willing to work with their hands.” This is Mayor W. G. Gaynor's criticism of the public school systems throughout the United States and particularly of the New York public schools. “Boys are getting too much in their heads to want to work with their hands,” the mayor holds, "and girjs know too many other things to want to want to do housework.” Mayor Gaynor is an advocate of teaching "reading, writing ’n’ ’rithmetic in the public schools along with a few other essentials and letting languages, for instance, wait for those who have more time for learning than those who end their schooling with the grades. In giving his opinions of what the public schools in this country should do. Mayor Gaynor said: “The public school should train our boys and girls to work; work with their hands as well as their heads. Schools especially in the larger cities all over this country, are turning out boys and girls who think they are a little too good to do ordinary work. This is bad for the country. “We are bringing boys and girls out of the common schools, who, unless they can get jobs where they can sit on high stools or at a typewriter, won’t work. They have been taught too much and think because they have been educated they should use their heads alone and let others work with their hands. "This condition is bad for the country, and I have a notion it is all caused because those in charge of the schools are trying to do too much, i Chrildren in the common schools are taught so much they can learn little well. : “When I was a boy in the district school in the country, and later in the ' village, I observed It was very easy to discourage pupils oy too much work, although then they were taught only two essentials. Now then, it seems to 1 me too many subjects are taught in I school and the children become disI gusted because they think they are overloaded. None can learn all that is , taught while the great majority learn , very little. I “I think the largest percentage of children in our schools are just submerged—they just have their noses above water, struggling to breathe. They have more than they can do. We try to teach them too many things and the result is they leave the common school with a superficial knowledge of many things and an accurate knowledge of none. This was my own experience in the common schools. “There are a lot of frills and refinements now taught in our schools that ought tn be dropped. Frevch and German, for instance, are refit ements. If there is any one who has ever learned French or German in these schools even to read and understand it, I wish they would come into my office and talk with me. Either boy or girl who has accomplished this certainly would be a curiosity. “The teaching of languages does not help our children become better citizens. It does not impress on them the necessity of work. And there is a shortage of workers all over the 1 country. Children born here and who attend our schools won’t work with their hands unless they have to, and then they don’t like it. “And I am convinced that a system of education that produces such a result is a failure and the systems in our larger cities are very generally proI ducing just that result. We are teachj ing unnecessary things. Probably this . is so because those interested in edu- ; cation are zealous in their work, constantly adding to that which they think our children should learn. It’s a hobby with them; they keep enlarging and enlarging the studies for the common schools. For this reason I think those engaged in any one line of work should consult with those , In other lines to get a broader view of their own work before going too - far. Teachers and those in charge of our schools are apt to get narrow, just as those in other work, unless they are guided somewhat by outside influences. I don't want to criticise too much, but we should teach our children with greater care.” —o The Chanticiae. Girls will be entertained this evening at the home of Miss Naomi Dugan, and Friday after-

noon Miss Neva Brandyberry and Miss Florence Myers will give a tea party at the former's home. Sunday evening Miss Reba Quinn will entertain the bunch at a New Year’s watch party, when early In the morning the girls will accompany Miss Winifred ' Sowers to the train, she leaving at I that time for her home in Sharon, I’a. Mr. and Mrs. Rollo C. Plfer and daughters, Anna, Isabelle and Alice, arrived today from South Bend and are guests of their parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Myers. A very pretty baptismal service will be held Sunday afternoon at -1 o’clock for the baby, Alice, at which her uncle, the Rev. G. H. .Myers, will officiate. Other guests Sunday will be Mr. and Mrs. Robert Harding and Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Harding of Fort Wayne. Miss Sallie (’abler of Fort Wayne and Miss Winifred Sowers of Sharon, Pa., were guests of honor at the party given last evening by Miss Lillian Rice, other guests being the members of the Chanticleer set and Miss Catherine Vesey of Fort Wayne, and her guest. Miss Lucy Lelblng of Terre Haute. The company was divided into different families, each one being called upon to do various amusement stunts for the entertainment of the others. Then each one wrote a New Year’s resolution for the others ami much merriment was created when these were read, for they all realized that it is far easier “to tell what it were best to do than to do it one’s sell.” Refreshments of grape juice and wafers were served. Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Dugan gave a 0 o'clock dinner party Wednesday evening fcr Mr. and Mrs. L. G. Eilingham of Indianapolis, covers being laid for twelve. Pink and white roses as a centerpie'’;.- were the pretty table decorations. In the evening the dinner guests were joined by a number of others and there were cards and music and the lighting of the Christwas tree to complete the pleasure of the evening. Stewart Niblick gave a 12 o'clock dinner party today at the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. C. S. Niblick, in honor of France Center of Indianapolis, the guests including college chums —Jonn Colman of Union City, Charles McArdle of Monroeville, Leo Bierkmeyer of Delphos, Ohio; William Butler of South Bend, Harold Moran of Huntington, Joseph Lili of Ft. Wayne, Leon Meibers, Walter Corbett, Frances Schmidt, Martin Braden, Felix ■ and Arthur Holthouse, Clarence Mil- , ler. Covers were laid at little tables , in the dining room, where the Christmas decorations of red bells and i green and red festoons prevailed. Duri ing the delicious dinner served by Mrs. Niblick and daughter, Naomi, the • Christmas tree in the bay window of i the dining room was lighted. i —o “THAT HUNT." The followng lines were composed ; by Judge Richard K. Erwin, familiarly . known here as "Our Dick," a former ! judge of the twenty-sixth circuit, and I well known Indiana politician, now rei siding at Fort Wayne. With a num ■ ber of men from this section he went ! to northern Michigan some weeks ago, i and these verses were typewritten and sent with a Christmas and New Year Day greeting to the members of that party: • For four long years I stayed at home, And never once from there did roam; Until someone said, “Let’s kill a doer,' > Then I locked the house and came up here. ! i On October sixteenth, we left Fort Wayne Upon a Pennsylvania train — Eighteen within a "special car,” But each one had to pay his fare. We at Chicago made a stop, But did not visit any shop ’Till we at last Milwaukee reached, Where every shop around we searched. Some sought a feed, some others beer. Which adder greatly to our cheer. Some went up town to see the show Some laid and slept the whole night through. There was nothing happened all that night Until along about daylight, When we at last got something started And kept it up until we parted. We reached a town, at last, called Witbeck. Where we had trouble by the peck— No teams to take us to the wood, So we had to do the best we could. 3'or about five miles we had to tramp— A thing which really made me hull-;.). We got to camp and at it went And very sc?n had raised our tent. We built a fire—put up a stove And in it a lot of wood we shoved: Then soon we spread the festal board And gathered, ’round a hungry board. 1

We pitched our tent beside a lake From which our water we could take. And started In to have a time, For everything was going fine. We built a bed of logs and hay In which ten men with east could lay. First to the east Frank Gideon lay upon that, bed, Then Glen, his son, next lay his head. John Gideon next In sweet repose, George Griffen then, lay very close, Right next to him, and to his right A place was given to Fred White. George Knettles next, and then Dock Nept, And next to him Mart Mumma slept. The next in line was Doctor Hall, While 1 lay up against the wall. Doctor Leslie on a cot did sleep While Tim, his son, did company keep. We lay there just like a man that's dead, Until I tumbled out of bed. Twelve sleeping men that tent con tained. Who never moved except it rained; For that tent was never built for show Nor neither did it keep out snow. We there at night did hibernate Until George Knottie said, “It's late," And got us all up out of bed Before daylight, for Tim to feed. Tim Leslie and John Gideon were our cooks With knowledge never learned from books. Not even Delmonico’s Bill of Fare Could with their cooking quite compare. Frank Leslie stayed and watched tho camp He bossed the bunch and kept us straight, And bought the goods and paid the freight. George Griffen was the first in luck And was the first to kill a buck — The finest one he’ll ever kill—i From which we all could take a fill. We had some tun, likewise somt trout ble; , Which to riiention now. would make > it double. i A porcupine came in one night And gave us all an awful fright. It got ”s all into a splutter, t When he made an assault upon our ■ | butter. s Tim Leslie led the hosts in this attack And killed that rodent with an ax. I, And as he lay there in his gore, ’ There was around upon that floor 1 Quills to make an Indian smile, f | If he sould have gazed upon that pile. Across the woods, about a mile, Was another bunch camped all this while. I George Bowers, a hunter brave ami ,- bold, r, 1 Was boused in a tent, w,th six all iohl. - His son. Dr. Bowers, was on that list. And never once a deer he missed, t Ed Mullenkup was camped there, too. . Who cooked and made their Irish 1 stew. r t Dan Pugh—who kilted more deer than all the rest — , That is, if you counted all he missed. : He had a fault, all though was bad, I’d mention it but he'd get mad. >, I H. Putnam, too, was in that bunch, — l And let me give you all a hunch. t He shot and killed the finest buck ■ That ever fell to huntman's luck. . Bill Basel, ton, was in that band Who in that deer hunt took a hand. And take them, one, or all around, No finer set could ere be found. We hunted long and tramped the wood. And really did the best we could. , But all were careful; and each man i saw That no one ever broke the law. If I should tell who killed the deer I'm afraid I'd not be here; But lying at Marquette in Jail While other men would write this tale. I I thought 'tw-a.s I who killed them all As I lay asleep by that tent wall. But since I woke, it really seems I only killed them in my dreams. Compared with other times I’ve had This latest trip was not half bad. And to tell you frankly, on the square, ; There's none that will with it compare. When you come here another year To spend your time, and kill the deer; I’ll not be here, but far away Just working for a little pay. I | ,I wish that when you quit this shore That flowers each one may cover o're And in the huntsman's hall of fame. Each one of you may have a name.

When you gather around another year, While some dring Gin, and some drink beer, And you, In your minds, recall thi day. Think of me, your friend, that's far away. My friends, farewell —A long adieu, I know you're glad for now I’m through. Your memory I'll hold ever deal I wish you all a Glad New Year. —■ —o— — WARNING TO GIRLS. Tho following from the Herald ol Light has been re published by quest: "One of tile chief causes of 11. downfall of girls is the laxne.- s n i. rental government. Fond and Indi: gent parents see, when it is too late, the fatal mistake they have made in this respect. "As the daughter enters her 'teen-, unless she has lieen led into the s< curity of the ark of God and had he: heart changed, she will find hersel captured by worldly allurements atm enticements from giddy companions of both sexes. And when the offer presents itself from some young bo. scarcely old enough to leave his moth er's fireside, to take pleasure trip, with the young miss, or spend la'< hours in her company, the foolish mother yields without a word of objection of moment of anxiety and the two have started out on a surging sea to drift with the tide and finally be wrecked victims of the devil, unless some miracle of Providence intercepts them. "Mothers, do you know where your boys and girls are tonight? Can you be contented to go to sleep, while your young, unsophisticated daughter is keeping late hours somewhere with young companions? For what purpose should she do so? What reason is there in this ‘sitting up’ custom so prevalent everywhere? Or this perambulating the streets, keeping com pany,’ at such a tender age? How can you hope for anything better for the precious child's future than a blasted life and ruined hopes, in the course she is pursuing? “You may be tempted to think you will drive her further from God to oppose her; but you are making yourself a partner in her downward course, and the Judge of all the earth will bring you to a fearful account. "Eli came to an awful end because he restrained not his sons in their wickedness. We have the same God to deal with today and the same responsibility is upon the parents of today that rested on those of olden times. | “Let every one measure up to God's requirements and rescue their children from destruction."
