Music lovers of this city bad an exceptional treat Monday afternoon, January 23, when Alexander Heinei ias t:a SLOsrnm Vilft Absolutely Puro Crczi ef fcrCsr

mann sang for a multitude of them In a well selected and impressive program. The Heinemann all embracing style and vocal manner had ample opportunity to sblne in the list of numbers for they ranged from the purely lyrical singing piece to the most dramatic of musical declamations. In superb voice and interpretive fettle, Heinemann poured out the full measure of his rich artistic resources and all afternoon held the audience in the hollow of his hand, as the saying goes making them smile when the music and text were humorous, sigh when they were sentimental and weep when they were moved in the realm of the sorrowful and the pathetic. At all times, however, Heinemann stayed punctiliously within the legitimate confines of Ileder delivery and never attempted by facial play or use of gesture to aid the impression created through vocal and enunciatory means alone. As stated before the recital ended in a veritable blaze of glory, and the feted artist was forced to respond to numerous recalls and encores. There is no contemporary German lieder interpreter superior to Alexander Heinemann, and therefore his New York reception extends to him only the honor that is his rightful due. Musical Courier.

Christian EndeavorHome Missions

BY REV. S. Prayer Meeting Topic For the Week j Beginning Feb. 5, 1911. I Topic Why da you believe In Christian Endeavor? (Christian Endeavor dav. Prow sxii. 6; vM. 12-17. Si-S(i. Edited by j Rev. Sherman H. Doyle. D. D. j The Christian Endeavor movement " imttj jito vm, iuc uik pm-U"-ty having been organized by the Rev. Dr. Francis E. Clark, pastor of the Willotson Congregational church, in Portland, Me., Feb. 2, 18SL Nearly a third of a century has passed by since this small beginning:, and it continues today, an interdenominational and international organization, with its societies and its work worldwide in extent. Thousands were enrolled under the banner of "Christ and the church," and the thousands have been advanced to millions. Many of its first adherents in the early years of its spreading are still active in its service. The present writer was a member of the second society, organ ized in the state of Ohio in 1S.4, and has never ceased to have an active interest in its work. Begiuniug as a boy, having since been graduated from college and the theological seminary and having become au ordaiued minister in the few churches of which lie has been the pastor, he has always had an interest iu Christian Endeavor societies. Iu a pastorate of considerable years now 1 have never had any friction with a Christian Endeavor society 1 have largely given to the young peo ple the full charge and responsibility, and they have uobly responded and kept within proper bounds. If the wheels crenk at times a few words of cautiou or a suggestion never a command, but well oiled with kindness aud love is sufficient, for the pastor's words go a long way aud kindness much further, and constant active interest, w hich is the proof of real Interest, completes the trinity that keeps the society running smoothly under the pastor's guiding hand. Iu general It may be said: 1. We believe in Christian Endeavor because of the many evidences of God's haud having been in it all these years. He has given it wise leadership, especially in its president, Dr. Francis E. Clark. Deep gratitude to God is due on this thirtieth anniversary that Dr. Clark, who organized this movement, still lives and still directs it. He, under God, founded It upon great practical principles, trained it up as his child in the way that it should go, and now that it has grown to a goodly age it still, under the guiding hand of God, using Dr. Clark as His human agent, strengthens and grows in societies and In numbers. No one can doubt or deny God's haud in this movement. Nothing else could account for its history. Therefore, believing in God, we believe In Christian Endeavor, for it Is of God. 2. We believe in Christian Endeavor because it filled a long need In the church and in the world. How to hold the young people in the church was once its greatest problem. Christian Endeavor solved it. It interested the young people because it gave them something definite to do. The cry soon changed. Many thought the young people were too much interested and too attentive; that they seemed destined to run the church and to overthrow the denominations and carry church affairs with a high hand. Criticism arose thick and fast, principally from pastors who did not know their young people when they met them. One moment they were a dead factor, and the next they were too active a factor. But. wise' pastors were overjoyed and went iu for the society with deep heart iuterest and found it a great help in the church. Flowers were on the pulpit. The aged were visited and read to. All kinds of institutions felt the touch of Christian Endeavorhospitals, homes for the destitute and incurables; even prisoners in Jails and penitentiaries heard the songs of sweet voices, and sailors on the deep sea were not forgotten, and thousands of "comfort bags," with a cheerful note or letter, gladdened many n man before the mast. Iok at the great men's movement today brotherhoods, leagues, men's meetings, the great missionary movement among men. All came up at the moment of greatest need to hold the men in the church by arousing active iersonal interest. Once we preached on "Why Do Men Not Atteud Church?" Today the subject is, "Why Do Men Attend Church V" It is the greatest age of meu's interest and attendance upon the church services since the Christian church was founded (if we may possibly except the aposUc are. of the rburchi that the world

has iTer seOn. Business men are interested: rich and poor alike are Interested. Let critics criticise and carpers carp, but God's church still moves on and ever will move on, because It is the church of God. and if the persecutions and opposition that have arisen against her in the last nineteen centuries have not been able even to cripple her what can? Nothing, because God is round about her, aud "the gates of hell shall not prevail against her. Where is "the new theology," "the new Christianity. "the new religion. of only a few months ago? They filled the air for a day and then like air disappeared, but the church of God still stands, founded upon the Rock, Christ Jesus. B1BI.E READINGS.

Unless severe Illness in his family prevents, a girl who has just become engaged must wait for her future busband's family to call upon her. The reason for this is obvious. She is about to become n member of another family. If she Is welcome here its members will hasten to greet her; if she is not they will stay away, says Rosanna Schuyler. She may not make the first call, for then she is In the position of forcing her acquaintance upon them, and If they are inconsiderate she may be subjected to snubbing. Courtesy and good , form demand that, even if a girl is not altogether welcome to her future "in-laws," they shall call upon her as soon as tbey know of the engagement, for if they fail to do so it is an announcement to the world that they are displeased. it is aiways ine part or wisaom to keep knowledge of private family matter from the public, and so it Is that a woman will go to see her son's fiancee, .even though she may wish the engagement did not exist. The only Justifiable excuse for the older woman's not going at once Is illness on her part or that of her family or a good and sufficient reason why she should not receive the girl. A. woman of any experience will hesitate before she will make such a sweepingcondemnation of a young woman whom her son expects to marry. i If a young man's father should call upon bis future daughter-in-law It is considered a mark of courtesy, but is not required, for the visit of the older woman means bis sanction to the engagement. If a young man who has become engaged has any sisters they, too, must call Immediately upon his fiancee, even though they may not have known her previously. On her part she is to receive such visits with cordiality and good feeling. If for any reason she has not cared much for ber fiance's family and has known them any former lack of friendliness must be removed even at the cost of effort, for It is both 111 bred and stupid for a girl not to be on good terms with her future husband's relatives, end if necessary she must overlook everything not inconsistent with self respect In her endeavor to hare peace, even if only on the surface. If the young man's family live in another city they are supposed to make their welcome through letters written at once to the girl. She may not be the first to write any more than she is to call.
