Major M. H. laggart's Inspection
of the Fourth Brigade on Friaay
morning, accompanieu by Governor
Tener, was but a duplication ot tne
routine ot the First Brigade inspec
tion 011 Thursday, ana at itß conclu
sion Governor Tener and tne other
inspecting officers expressed them
sehes as higniy pleased with the or
ganization as. a whole and especially
with the brigade as it appealed un
der inspection. General James B.
Coryell, communuer 01 the brigade,
stated that It was the most success
ful camp held in years and General
William G. Price, commander ol the
First brigade, voiced similar senti
ments.
The last night in camp was fraught
with the usual celebrations anu pink
teas and inure boisterous social l unc
tions were the rule in every company
as well as in the officers' quarters.
The most serious illness of the en
tire tour of duty was discovered on
the last day of the camp, when Pri
vate Baudette, of Company M, Eighth
Infantry, was lound to have devel
oped a case of pronounced dipntnena.
Captain Edwaru Mcßride, commander
of the company, was notuied and alter
a consultation the State Health De
partment at Harrisburg was also ln
tormed of the case. The latter offi
cials at once took charge and the man
was isolated in a tent apart from the
rest of the regiment, and a guard
was maintained around the place un
til arrangements were made for the
removal of the man to his home at
Lewistown in an automobile.
Men Receive Their Pay
The United States army paymaster
was in camp on Friday and a consid
erable portion of the day was de
voted to the muster of the men for
pay. All of the officers received their
full pay with the exception of a por
tion of the Sixth Infantry, the ap
propriation being insufficient to cover
the two brigades. The noncommis
sioned officers received only the pay
which would have been allotted them
for service a similar length of time
in the United States army, enlisted
men receiving $4: corporals, st>, and
sergeants from $8 to $lO. The rest
of their pay will coine along in the
usual channels from the government
of Pennsylvania. The pay for this
camp will be the same as all others,
being rated on 11.50 per day for the
enlisted men.
A considerable number of the
members of the Eighth Infantry,
principally Harrisburg guardsmen,
will come back to Mt. Gretna next
week to take part in the annual ritie
competitions. The Eighth Regiment
will IK? represented this year by
very strong teams, in both the junior
and senior matches.

nish two men in the'persons of Pri
vate Albert L. Dunn and Sergeant
George Fairall: Company 1, also of
Harrisburg. will supply Corporal
John E. Rogers and Quartermaster

Captain ,/erc J. Hartman, of Com
pany D. and faptain Frank E. Zieg
ler. of Company 1, both of Harris
burg. before leaving camp stated that,
the tour of instruction was th* most
effective and beneficial in a number
of years and they were highly pleased
with the showing of their men, both
under the eye of the inspectors as
well as at other times during the

effort was made to have the sale of
Berkshire hogs postponed for that pur
pose. It failed. To the farmers the
purchase of hogs of the class at auc

political speech and Mr. McCormick was

YOU and the Church
Church attendance is a social as well as a moral ob
ligation upon the part of every man and woman. The
Christian Church represents the highest form of civilization
of which you are a unit. In all of the great movements
which have for their object social or civic betterment of
country, city or state—there you will find the influence of
the Christian Church.
Perhaps you are a non-churchman. It does not
necessarily follow that you scoff at the church or its teach
ings, but rather that you do not support it by attending its
services.
As a thinking man you surely recognize the influence
that your dailv life exerts upon your social and business
associates. You cannot even in a small way compute to
what extent you sway the opinions of your fellow-men.
Naturally you want to mould your prominence according
to the highest standards, and the standard of prominence
may be measured by your ability to draw men to or from
church. !
/
Do not be satisfied in persuading yourself that the
church can successfully propagate her work without you.
Rather consider how much more she can accomplish if
you are supporting her.
Think this over carefully.
You are the one to help the church
make the world a better place in which
to live--to raise the standard of civi
lization--to give your fellow-man a
a better life. Now is the time to start.

Man Who Furnishes Power to
Man Church of God Pastors
DR. S. G. YAHN
Editor of the Church Advocate, official
Publication of the Church of God.
A record as pastor of one church
for eighteen years and a reputation as
the possessor of the judicial tem
perament is a combination hard to
surpass. These are a couple of salient
facts in the life of the Rev. Dr. S. G.
Yahn. editor of the Church Advocate,
which is issued by the Central Print
ing Company as the official Church of
God publication.
Dr. S. G. Yahn—and he has as
cognomens the names of two Civil War
veterans: now. children, guess what
they are: but he prefers to go un
assumingly on the. S. G. Y. route for
the clerical directory—is as quiet as
the brink of Niagara Palls, and, by the
same token, as powerful, lie is turn
ing a lot of spiritual turbines that fur
nish power to many Church of God
pastors and laymen throughout the
country.
P. G. Yahn was born on a farm near
North Sewickley, Beaver county, Pa.,
February 6. 1867. J.ike many an
other country boy he was not born
into a family rich in worldly posses
sions, and his early years, while not
filled with desperate poverty, were
spent in part in chasing the festive
wolf away, or rather in helping dad
to do it. But. ambitious for learning
rather than pelf, the future Church of
God editor got the foundations of an
education at Sewickley Academy
and Army Coillege. Pittsburgh.
From sixteen to nineteen he was
teaching in th*' public schools. He
obtained his early religious instruction
at Slippery Rock (now Llllyville) and
was for three years joint editor and
publisher of the Missionary Signal and
In 1593 published a history of the
Pennsylvania eldership as well as
pamphlets on Bible study and the %
teaching function of the Church of
Ood.
In 1896 the General Kidership, rec
ognizing his peculiar gifts, appointed
him assistant editor of the Advocate,
but he declined the post and kept on
at his charge at Mount Pleasant, but
since July. I #O9. he has been editor of
the publication, having been prevailed
upon to assume the post at that timo
and to relinquish his charge at Mount
Pleasant after a service of eighteen
years. In 1904 the executive board of
the church elected him to filll a va
cancy occasioned by the resignation
of C. 1. Brown and In 190f> Pindlay
College voted him a degree of doctor
of divinity, and that is why we put a
"Dr." in front of his name, though he
doth not usually care to sport that
name.
