He wants to see hm carry a bible to church. To square yourself with C. J. you will have to get up early, no matter how rheumatic you are, and go to Sun day school. Sharp says that It Just about knocks all of the spirituality out of a. boy to come home from Sunday school and find his father In his socks reading the Sunday supplements. Here is the message Sharp has sent out: 700 In the Bible School. 'Last week we had 669 and I want all who are intersted in the contest with one of the largest Sunday schools of Chicago to come tomorrow. We want men to come and bring their bibles for we have departments for all ages. Re member it is mother's day. "C. J. SHARP."

An unitring effort to have the life of a 15-day-old baby by using arti ficial respiration proved futile at a Gibson home Thursday night, when physicians worked for nearly twentyfour hours with a pulmotor over the infant child of Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Cole. Several times the heart of the babe failed to respond and its breathing stopped, but the pulmotor brought new life action. The physicians worked without rest and meals, the pulmotor being kept In action for over twenty-four hours. At times the babe showed signs of life and the physicians thought it wonld recover, but despite their heroic efforts It passed away shortly after 8 o'elock. Funeral services were held from the residence this afternoon at 3 o'clock. Interment was made at Oak Hill cemetery.
