H. C. Holloway, D. D. It is well to emphasize, with becom ing services, noted spoclis in history. We learn lessons that are valuable and that will enable us to understand the present. History, when properly writ ten, is but a record of Providence; with his eyes constantly llxed on the hand of God. Every change, every revolution in human affairs, is, in the mind of God, a movement to the con summation of the great work of re demption. What is to us many times a strange mixture is perfectly clear to the infinite mind. There is no doubt at the present time a growing ten dency to so understand history that we may be prolited by it and thus be better qualified for our work in the present. The rteformation movement of the sixteenth century was not a revolu tion. The Reformers desired not, and are not to be considered, founders of a new church, but simply renewers, re storers of the old upon its original foundations. They advanced no new doctrines, but contended for the same doctrines which were promulgated from the time of .(he Apostles. The Reformation church is the Christian church regenerated, renewed and re formed. The leaders of this move ment, of whom Martin Luther was chief, were formidable ligures. Their time was the dt-wn, ours is the sun rise. Such an epoch is worthy the best emphasis we can give it. As has been noticed in these col umns the four hundredth anniversary of the Reformation will be ex tensively and befittingly celebrated by the Lutheran and other churches of llarrisburg and vicinity. That great mass meeting In Chestnut street audi torium last Sunday evening was a fair sample of what may be expected here after. There was an audience of 2,100 and all overflow of GOO in the Zlon Lutheran Church. The addresses by Prof. C. M. Jacobs, D. D., of Mount Airy Theological Seminary, Philadel phia, and by the Itev. Dr. A. R. Steck, of. Carlisle, were remarkable for learning, instruction and inspiration. From this outpouring of vast multi tudes it Is very apparent that a very marked interest is already awakened on this subject and will continue to increase as these services" progress. In addition to these special occasions, addresses, sermons, studies and He formation history will be presented at the regular services on the Lord's day. Growth of l.iitlicranism in llnrrtoburg This has been almost phenomenal. From the day of Its first planting tlio Lutheran church in this city has been blessed with God fearing, able and consecrated pastors. The fruits are apparent. Look around and see! For about eight years tho Lutherans and Reformed congregations worshiped together. But in 1795, 122 years ago, the Lutherans thought that tho time had come when this union, never in tended by either congregation to be permanent, should be dissolved. Ac cordingly the Lutherans called a pas tor, and under him began the distinc tive congregational life. Tt is marvelous to note how the good seed of the word then sowed has brought forth rich fruit, well nigh an hundred fold. From thAJt beginning llarrisburg became a center of Luth eranism, and It is well known and well &P tS" J " HrrtßbrfcP. ' 1 HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH - established in all the surrounding .

' STEVENS MEMORIAL GAINS Members of the Stevens Memorial Methodist Church are pleased to know that their church is one of the forty largest Methodist churches in the country. This fact became known with the publication of the Methodist Year Book. The Calvary Chuch, New York I city, with 2,C00 members, is first; First, I Los Angeles, 2,400 members, and the Central Church, Detroit, with 2,227 j members, are the three leading Mctho ] dlst churches. The present member i ship of the Stevens Memorial church is j 1,450. Over 700 new members .have j been added within the last three years. ' FORUM TO MEET "Citizenship" will be the subject of an address before the People's Forum to-morrow afternoon at 3 o'clock, in Wesley A. M. B. Church by Miss Amelia Durbin. The choir of St. I Stephen's Episcopal Church will fur nish special music for the occasion. Food and Fuel The food problem has reached an acute stage. Soar ing prices on staples and pub lic disturbances have tended to bring matters to a climax. The paralyzing of railroad traffic is partly responsible for conditions. That has been the trouble with the fuel situation—lack j of cars to carry the coal from the mines to the market. Fortunately the coal short age has not reached such a critical stage as the food question, but the scarcity is a reality as only those who are not stocked for the win ter may find out later to their sorrow. Better take advantage of the little supply in the yards at present. H.M. KELLEY&CO. OtTler, 1 North Third Ynrl, Tenth nii<| Stntr FEBRUARY J4, iyi/. New Tax Bill to Cut Out 5,000 Bills in N. Y. Albany, Feb. 24.—Amendments to the Raines liquor tax law were intro duced yesterday by the State Senate committee on taxation and retrench ment. They have the approval of the Republican legislative leaders and will be pushed through the Legislature as a party measure if necessary. They will, if adopted, reduce the number of saloons in the towns of the State by 2,000 and in cities of less than 55,000 inhabitants by 1,100 by pro viding that in those places there shall be but one saloon to each 500 inhiilui tants. The present ratio in the rest of the State, of one saloon to each 750 in habitants, is not disturbed, but in view of the fact that the present sl,- 500 liquor tax license in Manhattan and Kings has created a saloon ratio of one to 510 population in Manhat tan and one in 729 population in Kings, the framers of the bill believe there will be a reduction in the other boroughs of New York city and in the other first and second class cities of the State through an increase in the liquor lax. The tax in these localities is rais ed from $936.50 to $1,200 a year. Li censes in smaller towns are also in creased.
