EVANGELICAL
SUMMER MEETINGS.
Central Oak Heights, West Milton,
Pennsylvania.
The Evangelical Assembly grounds,
West Milton, Pa. of the Central
Pennsylvania Conference of The
Evangelical Church, will be the seat
of great activity during the months
of July and August. It is there where
the young people and the older folks
of the Evangelical Church assemble
for Bible Study, Religious Education,
and Camp Meeting. This is a little
city of cottages built among the
sturdy and majestic oak trees, which
invite lovers of God and nature to
come beneath their shade and shelter
for quiet and rest, worship and study.
There are over one hundred cottages
in the village, and a large up-to-date
boarding house, serving the finest
kind of meals; dormitory space is also
provided for over one hundred tran-
sients. Just now the Board of Trus-
tees is completing the installation of
over five thousand feet of sewer pipe,
so that each building on the grounds
will be equipped with the latest sani-
tary facilities. The Board has also
installed a water system, and this
has required over five thousand feet
of water line, reaching from the main
of The White Deer Mountain Water
Company along the highway, to all
of the buildings, The expenditure for
this purpose has totaled nearly $8000,
and adds much to the convenience,
beauty and general make-up of Cen-
tral Oak Heights.
Central Oak Heights, above and be-
yond busy streets and beside rippling
waters; near railway and inspiration,
fellowship and culture, rest and rec-
reation, annually attracts to the in-
spiring and helpful services increas-
ing hosts of Evangelicals and friends
from far and near. Already the cot-
tagers are making their appearance,
although the sessions do not begin
until July 25th, when the School of
Religious Education will be opened
by Rev. Dr. W. E. Peffley, Conference
Director of Religious Education, who
is also the Dean of the School. This
School will offer, for one week, until
July 31st, a standard training for
pastors, Sunday School, Christian
Endeavor and Missionary workers.
Students will take a one course unit
of ten lessons for credit, in addition
to the devotional, inspirational and
recreational features.
During this week the Morning
Watch will be in charge of Rev. C. I.
Raffensperger at 7 o’clock, and at 8
o’clock Prof. P. E. Keen will conduct
devotional bible study, theme “Life
Eternal,” and the period from 9 to
11.30 will be devoted to class study.
At 11.30 Rev. E. W. Praetorious, Gen-
eral Secretary of Board of Religious
Education will lecture on Sunday
school work. A large part of the
afternoon will be given over to recre-
ation and each evening at 7.00 o’clock
Vesper services: will be conducted by
Rev. A. Ward Campbell, followed
with lecture by Prof. V. C. Zener,

served The Evangelical Church in
various capacities, as Editor, College
President. and now as Bishop, will be
the special lecturers and speakers for
the Bible Conference.
Bishop Seager will also serve as
the special preacher over the first
Sisjay of Camp Meeting, August

versary day, with special program of
music and addresses, to be held on
the Home grounds, near Lewisburg.
The grounds where these summer

in location, situation and adaptation,
and it is estimated that more people
will attend this year than ever before.

'LINDBERGH JOINS
SELECT COMPANY
Now Member of the “Did It
Alone” Club.
Washington.—He did it alone!
Col. Charles A. Lindbergh has
Joined a choice company of solo ex-
plorers and adventurers, because “he
did it alone.”
Dr. David Livingstone, Henry Stan-
ley, Alexander Selkirk (Robinson Cru-
soe), Capt. Joshua Slocum, Capt.
Harry Pidgeon, Lieut. Andrew 8S.
Rowan, John Colter, and Sir Galahad
did it alone.
“Adventurers ‘on their own’ have
earned the world’s best glory
wreaths,” says a bulletin from the
Washington headquarters of the Neg
tional Geographic society.
“David Livingstone sleeps in West-
minster abbey because, traveling by
himself, he revealed the geograpny of
the dark heart of Africa. David Liv-
ingstone was lost three years to the
world when Henry Stanley—alone, ex-
cept for native carriers—cut through
the Congo to reach Livingstone at
Ujiji and leave supplies and medical
equipment for the missionary explorer.
“The solo adventurer who carried
the ‘message to Garcia,’ like Colonel
Lindbergh, wore the American uni-
form. Elbert Hubbard told the story
which thrilled and still thrills: how
the young officer on the eve of the
Spanish-American war took the mes-
sage from President McKinley for the
commander of the Cuban insurgents
deep in the trackless forest: how he
crossed to Cuba, braving capture and
death as a spy if caught; how he de-
livered the message to General Garcia
which put hope in the hearts of Cv
bans,
Sailed Around the World.
“Difficulty in making a living in
New England prompted Capt. Joshua
Slocum to embark on an adventure
par excellence. Alone he sailed the
‘Spray’ around the world. Last year
Capt. Harry Pidgeon also circumnavi-
gated the world in a still smaller boat,
‘The Islander,” a yawl 34 feet long
and 10 feet 9 inches on the beam. He
returned to Los Angeles, his home
port, after an absence of three years,
eleven months and thirteen days. On
one leg of his voyage Captain Pidgeon
did not see a speck of land, a sail, nor
the smoke plume of a steamer for 85
days.
“Courage when it goes alone has
;ver caught men’s imaginations. The
early bards gave Galahad, Beowulf
and St. George, the dragon slayer, no
weapon bearers or assistants. More
is the credit to the traveled Gulliver,
to the Connecticut Yankee in King
Arthur's court and to Jack the Giant
Killer, in the opinions of enthusiastic
readers, because they did their deeds
without aid. ‘The boy stood on the
burning deck,” and the poet, who knew
the public's preference for heroes,
added, ‘whence all but he had fled.
“Many lone adventurers have died
sonely, This has been true of trail
makers in the Middle and Far West.
While Daniel Boone and David Thomp-
son, he who mapped by himself the
country between Lake Superior and
the Pacifie coast, made their chief ex-
peditions with helpers, each -raveled
much alone. John Colter left an es-
tate of $220. although he accompanied
Lewis and Clark and by himself dis-
covered what is now Yellowstone
park. Colter's story shows one of
the hazards of traveling alone: no one
would believe his descriptions of Yel-
lowstone wonders because he had no
partner to confirm them.
“In a cemetery in Shanghai stands
4 solitary headstone to Frank N.
Meyer, plant explorer, who by intro-
ducing new plant varieties into the
United States, did much to promote
American agriculture. Although Mey-
er had Chinese helpers he pursued
constructive adventure without white
companions and finally sacrificed his
life in a Yangtze river accident.
Alone in China.
“Out in China at the present time
.8 Dr. Joseph Rock, who prefers to
travel alone. His hazardous journeys
to Tibet and Yunnan bave yielded,
among other finds, the fruit of the
chaulinoogra tree, which has been
found to cure leprosy. When Peary
discovered the North pole he had the
Iskimos with him, but he was the
only white man to stand on top of the
earth!
“Alexander Selkirk’s true story
sroved so pathetically lonesome that
Daniel Defoe found it necessary to
give him that fictional companion,
Good Man [I‘riday, when he wrote
‘Robinson Crusoe,” Selkirk, the real
Crusoe, had a misunderstanding with
the captain under whom he sailed and
asked to be put off on uninhabited
Juan Fernandez island near the Chil-
ean coast. Here British sailors from
the ‘Duke’ found him four years later,
scarcely able to talk, surrounded by
pet goats, parrots and ¢ats. He was
dressed in the skins of goats which
he was able to catch by his amazing
fleetness. A bronze tablet on the
island now marks ‘Selkirk Lookout.’
“One nonstop solo trip, not as long
as that from New York to Paris, to
be sure, but equally as famous, was
made between Boston and Lexington
by another hero who traveled alone,
Paul Revere.”
Styles Move Eastward
San Francisco.—Shoe styles in Cali
fornia are six months ahead and by
the time the modes have reached the
Atlantic coast Californians are wear-
ing something else, asserts A. H.

tion,
Student Knew Twas
No Time to Linger
He was a student at the University
of Missour! and “loved” military, as
do all the students.
“I tell you, doc,” he explained at the
hospital, “my throat hurts something
awful. I don’t believe I better go to
military for a day or two.”
“Not drilling outdoors now, are
Jou?” the doctor inquired.
“No, sir,” the student admitted.
“Well, your throat won't interfere
with your going to indoor classes.”
“But you see, doc, I play in the band.
and—"
“Oh, in that case it’s different,” the
doctor interrupted. “I don’t want you
straining that throat in band practice
Here’s an excuse for three days.”
Three days later the student agair
presented himself at the hospital.
“Well, how's the throat now?” the
doctor inquired.
“Pretty good, I guess,” the student
repiied.
“Think you can go back to band
practice now?” the doctor asked,
“Guess I might just as well.”
“Say, by the way,” the doctor re-
marked, “I used to play In a band a
little myself several years ago. Toot
a horn a little yet once In a while.
That's the reason I knew how hard it
would go on your sore throat. What
do you play?”
“One of the drums,” the student re-
plied, and slid hastily out of the door

Cats Alike Fond of
Traveling and Home
The glare of limelight that recently
beat upon Fluffy, the London Victoria
station cat, who boards the 10:45 train
to Dover every morning, lunches upon
nice creamy milk at the buifet there.
and returns to town by the afternoon
train, is a reminder of a curious fact
about cats; they are at once the great:
est travelers and the greatest “home
bodies” of all domesticated animals.
Other cats in England, and, indeed.
in most countries, regularly journey
long distances on trains, usually in the
restaurant car, but sometimes with the
train crew. As for seafaring cats,
there must be hundreds of thousands
of them, from North cape to the Horn.
Southampton water to Nagasaki bay.
Most liners carry quite a number;
there are White Star vessels with five-
and-twenty aboard. There was ap
amusing incident not long ago when
one of the Adriatic’s cats, that had
failed to turn up when the ship sailed,
reappeared for the next voyage with
its tail proudly waving in the breeze
and five little kittens trotting along
behind.—Manchester Guardian.
Being Allegorical
He was a sorry creature to look |
apon. His clothing was torn, his hair
was disheveled, and there was an
exhausted look upon his face. It was
clear that he was going. through, or
bad just gone throagh some terrific
struggle. Out of sheer pity .1 stopped
the man and asked him who he was
and if there was anything I could do
to help him.
“I am Office,” he said.
aothing you can do.”
“There {is
“Office?” 1 said, a little puzzled.
“Oh, yes. You are looking for the
man.’
“No, no,” he panted. *T'hat would
pe easy, I am trying to get rid of
the man.”
Still Belief in Witches
Belief in witches still exists in Eng-
and today, stated a lecturer on witch-
craft before a London society. She
said in one village in Dorset a certain
amount of the witches’ organizations
still remains. When I went down there
recently I asked one of the women
about it. She said, “Witch Fanny is
dead.” 1 asked, “Who is witch now?”
and she replied without hesitation,
“Witch Bessie is witch now.” The
question of succession was easily and
quickly arranged, but I could not find
aut how or when it was done.
Milk Without Cream
A cow that possessed “a perfectly
adjusted separator” has been reported
by a correspondent to the Sydney Bul-
letin. “She gave a lot of milk and her
calves were the fattest and biggest in
the herd, but for household purposes
her milk was useless,” according to
the correspondent. “The milk could
be run through a separator without a
drop of cream appearing either in the
dish or in the interior of the machine.
By no method of milking could she be
enticed to give any cream.”
Metric Measures
The myriameter, or 10,000 meters,
1s equivalent te 6.2137 miles. The
kilometer, 1,000 meters, is 0.62137
miles, or about 3,280 feet and 10
inches. Other units above the meter
are the hectometer, 100 meters, 328
feet 1 inch, and the dekameter, 10
meters, 393.7 Inches. The meter is
equivalent to 39.37 inches. Below it
are the decimeter, 3.937 inches; the
centimeter, 0.3937 inches, and the mil
limeter, 0.394 inches.
Watch Oddly Preserved
After being lost for 12 months in a
plowed field in England a farmer's
watch has been picked up, and is go
fing as well as if it had been in his
pocket all the time.
The man lost it while he was plow
ing, and searched fruitlessly for fit

Too Much
“Acid?”
Excess Uric Acid Gives Rise to Many
Unpleasant Troubles.
UTHORITIES agree that an ex-
cess of uric acid is primarily
due to faulty kidney action. Reten-
tion of this toxic material often
makes its presence felt by sore, pain-
ful joints, a tired, languid feeling
and, sometimes, toxic backache and
headache. That the kidneys are not
functioning right is often shown by
scanty or burning passage of secre-
tions. Thousands assist their kidneys
at such times by the use of Doan’s
Pjlls—a stimulant diuretic. Doan’s
are recommended by many local peo-
ple. Ask your neighbor!
