Mavs of Koknmo. Ind.. ho spoke lat niht before the quarterly conference of the Fiit Kvanelical church on the text takcn frcm Proverbs U'IS, "Where there is no vision the people perish." ile fpoke of the vivid narrative of i.',. K. Hale i.i the masterpiece. "A Man Without a Country." and illustrated his sermon with the illuminating descriptions furnished by the r.nvcl. He said: "To the man without a vision, life does not seem worth while. Nothing seems worth worlcip? for unless there in an incentive lack of a man to puide and rile hi.s conduct," rirvt. he said, it was necessary to keep vision of the true GoJ. The realization, ever present to the faithful christian life. "The P.lMe says that it is the fool who Kays that there is no God." He then elaborated on the proof from nature of the existance. of a creator and sustainer. Trie preacher spoke of the necessity of vision for the christian ami for the church member. He declared mat a vision of the crosr. of Chrisi was tie second Ir order. That it was i:e?ded to keep all that Jhrisl hu;i dor.e for man before the mind; rf ths faithful, in order that the beautifui lessons that he taught might be brought home 'with the greatest possible foree. A vision of the possibilities of Christian service is also an incenthe towards the higher things in life, he declared. Kev. Moss illustrated this point with vivid and well known xamplrs of th; visions of the great discoverers and inventors of history. lolumbus and Watt and others t-erved tc bring the preacher's points home to his audience. "Ko it ia in the religious life," he declared, "one man gets a vision of the good work and others catch his vision and carry it to its logical and inevitable conclusion." Special advice was given to the Sunday school superintendents ami teachers i.i this connection. In exemplification of the fourth point, the necessity of a vision of the eternal home of man, the speaker told of the soldier away from his home. "A soldier living in a dark and dreary land, f.ir away from his sunny home, can scarcely exist without a vision of his fatherland and the pleasant scenes that live again in his mind's eye. These are the most comforting possessions. So it is with the man with a vision of his true home in heaven." After the sermon the quarterly meetir.g of the otneial meml-crs of tb? church was held.

Three Women Make Light Of Our Town, By Gum

Three women, two of them blondes and the other whose complexion the darkness made difficult to determine, were in the automobile with the redheaded jrjun;' man. They had been arrested tor operating the machine without a license and were brought to the police station. The two light haired women who called each other "lara and Mabel, remained in the ar vhile the other, who seemtid to i e named Cora, went with the man to see the sergeant. ", but the cops here are good looking" exclaimed Cora, lookintr at the large picture of the police force which decorates the station wall. "h. those are all dead ones." parried Patrolman OT'or.ne!!. himself something of a Ueau Urummel. "Well, the living ones here are as handsome a.s ours in Chicago," she a nswered. (ioiug To l-ike. I ufing this interchange of persillage, the gentleman with 'he earotty dome was explaining to Capt. James Schock that the party was from Chicago and were going to Corey lake, in Michigan, and that he had lost his license on the road. The explanation had no effect on the captain who told the man that he "-list deposit $1.". to insure his appearance in police court this morning. In the meantime. Clara and Mabel, both of whom are exceedingly plump, were waiting outside in the machine SOCIAL SEA IS IPPFO OUT Chamber of Commerce Plans for Entertainment During Winter Months. Plans for the opening of the winter season of good times for the members of the Chamber of Commerce were set on foot last night at a meeting of the house and grounds committee of the Chamber at the rooms in the Athletic club. The big event of the winter will be a bowling tournament between the members for the championship of the business men of tho city. There will also, according to the plans made, be outside match games arranged between the Cnmmene league and other leosruo teams. A committee censisting of T. A. Tuttle, Victor Paxson and Clifford Iontz was apointed to make the detailed arrangements for the tournament. In order to facilitate the work and in order that every member who desires a place in the league may be accommodated, members were asked to present thir names either to one of the above-mentioned committee or at the offices of the chamber. If a sufficient number of members are interested in "cocked hat" there will be a special afternoon league formed. A special list will be made of these members and a tournament scheduled for play between o and 6 o'clock. Rudolph Campbell was appointed at last night's meeting jig chairman of the committee on billiards. He will choose two other members to serve with him and this committee will line up some tournaments to keep the preen tables busy during the winter. Owing to the fact that the social season will not open for several months further arrangements were not discussed la.st niht for the social events of the Chamber. It is very likely, though that the members will starre one or two dances and perhaps a series of smokers and "get-together" meetings. Try NEWS-TIMES Want Ads

SOI THINK BUGS I ARE SNOW STORM

Insects. White in Color, Gather on Street Corner by the Thousands. At first there were some bugs and then some more bugs came. These sent a wire to Bugland that there was to be a grand convention at the corner of Michigan and Lisalle sts. last night, and whether free lunch was advertised or whether the Akund of Swat was to make a speech, all of the hues arrived. They were white little thincs about a quarter of an inch long. Some (lew about the electric lights but most of them gathered on the sidewalk in front of the Sheridan hotel and in the street. Thousands and thousands of the little insects were in small pools resembling snow, and, when an automobile drove through them, it left two wide tracks as T an army dressed in white had been mowed down by cannon fire. It was impossible to walk along the sidewalk without stepping on them, so thickly were they massed together. Along the curbstone they were more than four inches deep, a gentle moving, noiseless conglomeration. No one knew from whence they came nor why they had chosen that particular corner on which to congregate, but it was suggested that perhaps a chance visitor from Niles, wishing to wreck vengeance on South IJend for some fancied wrong, had left them at the interurban station which is located at Lasalle and Michigan. The police, however, have found no evidence to substantiate this report. Dr. Paxson has removed his dental office from 120 Michigan st., to room 420 Farmers Trust Bid?.

WALKER M Y

MISSING FATHER Miss Pearl Henry Searching; for Man Who Became ! Exhausted Here. Miss Pearl Henry of 230 Ken-J wood av.. read a story in yesterday's News-Times, concerning a walker, Charles Henry, who became ill here on his walking trip from Atlantic City, N. J., to Omaha.. Nen., and wondered if it could be her father. o she called up the News-Times office and asked for further information concerning the pedestrian. "I have not seen father since I was three years old," she said. "I used to correspond with him regularly about twice a month until several months ago. He said then that he was coming back to thU county and that he would see me. "When I read the story in this morning's paper, I concluded that it must be he. I cannot understand, though, why he has not come to see me as he nromised. He krows mv ! address." The description of her father furnished by Miss Henry tallies almost exactly, with some allowance for the changes of yei.rs, with the appearence of the walker. When interviewed Thursday night Mr. Henry did not state definitely his plans and it is thought that perhaps he is still in this vicinity. He had started out to walk from Atlantic City to Omaha, Neb., on a wager. During the 44 days that he was on the road he covered 847 miles but he was exhausted when he reached Fort Wayne. He was troubled with his feet too, and for a week remained under the care of a physician. He waj forced to telegraph back to Atlantic City that he would I be unable to complete the journey Conditions Are Good Assertion of Another Man That conditions at the camp of the Indiana national guard at Llano, Tex., are all that might be expected and that the men are being well fed and clothed is the substance of a letter received by George Hull of this city from Private Charles L". Maggert. He writes: "We have good shelter, good eats and all that we want. Before long we will have board floors in our tents. Everybody has mrsquito netting to cover himself at night. "The schedule of drills and hikes are so arranged that we never have to get out in the heat " of the day. There are stores here where we can j purchase almost anything we want. "If anyone blames the officers of Co. F or the officers of the third regiment for the plight that we were in when we first arrived, they placed a wrong Interpretation on previous letters, because they have been doing their utmost to get tentage, etc. "Also forgot to mention that we have dandy shower bath accommodations and that there is absolutely no grumbling in camp whatever. "As far as Texas is concerned, we all like Indiana better but we can't come back until Uncle Sam says so, so we are making the best of everything." ATTENTION 1IOMK BUILDERS.

AT Till: LASALIJ:. A gripping dream in which the caprices of a spoiled society favorite nearly wreck her own life, and that of the man she loves, will be seen at the Iasalle today with Wallace Reid and Cleo Ridgley, the two brilliant Lasky stars in the leading roles. Mr. Reid will be remembered for his excellent work in support of Geraldine Farrar in "Carmen" ! and the co-starring of these two players in "The Golden Chance" ana "The Love Mask", won them unusual success. The story of the present drama is built around the change of heart of a woman, who marries a man for selfish consideration and who, after marriage, is willing to sacrifice her husband's honor for the sake of money. Mr. Reid in the role of the husband is manly and dignified and Miss Ridgley as the wife is seen to the best advantage. Her capable rendition of the part, her art in depicting the gradual change from blind, utscrupulousness to a recognition of her evil ways and an awakening of penuine wifely qualities are deserving of unstinted praise. The settings, costuming and scenic effects of the piece are in keeping with the excellence that is one of the features of all Lasky productions. Ernest Truex, one of the best known juvenile actors for the screen will be s-?en at the Lasalle tomorrow in a delightful comedy-drama with a college atmosphere entitled "Artie, The Millionaire Kid." AT TIIK COLONl.Lu A strong problem play dealing with labor conditions as they exist today in come the large cities, will be shown at the Colonial today.

The story is laid in the oil fields of Penn sylvania and centers around a girl of ! humble birth, who. after sh is grown, struggles against capital and labor trying to better factory conditions. The motives which actuate the characters in such a story are so vital to their welfare and so broad in their scope as to compel the spectator to take a firm Eand upon one side or the other; the arab, unlovely lives of the humble toilers involved in the drama, demanding the sympathy of everyone who thinks and feels. Clara Kimball Young, the beautiful brunette of the screen, will be seen at the Colonial on Sunday in "The Feast of Life." This is an interesting drama of Cuban life and the settings and costuming are particularly attractive. MYERS BROS. "South Bend's only Custom Shirt makers."
