Never in the history of the ■world have men and women had , such an opportunity to show their metal. Do Your Utmost The world challenges us to dis play our worth. This is true of the church as well as of individuals. Olivet made a wonderful stand last winter and spring, she placed herself in a position to be of real value to the world. To-day Olivet stands on the threshold of opportunities, heretofore unknown, we will be call ed upon to serve as never before. Homes that have given their boys to the Nation will look to us for comfort and encouragement; hearts that are heavy in sorrow will look to us for cheer; the Nation and State will, call us to a new example of citizenship. We must not fail in this hour. I am asking you therefore, to do your Utmost that we might realize the best that Is in us. Every depart ment of the Church is ready. The Sunday school will have its Rally Day exercises on Sunday, September 16, at 2 o'clock, we count on you to make this a real rally day. Let nothing interfere, on October 7, the fall communion will be administered. If you are a member of the church, I will expect you to ne present at that service, if you are not a mem ber. 1 will be glad to have you unite i with us. Let me know of your in tentions that I might serve you bet-1 ter. There are many important things that we must do in the next several months, that I am. sure you will do your part in making Olivet the very hest this year.

Tra dition tells us that on this Day the Ruler of Life weighs the doings of man, and allots to each his destirjr, as it were, for the coming year, for weal or woe, for life or death. "Shall a trumpet he blown in the city, and the people not tremble?" (Amos, 111, 6) "For the Lord is our judge; the Lord is our law-giver; the Lord is our king; He will save us." Its message to man is threefold: (1) to contemplate all experiences of the year—joyful and sorrowful — in the light of discipline, by the ruler of human destiny, and to re new our trust in Him; (2) to scrut inize our conduct, conscious that God. the Just Judge of the world, searches the heart, and to conse crate the new year to a nobler life; (8) and to look upon the life story of Israel as of one's self in the light of God's revelations on Sinai, Moriah and 2ion. Special music and prayers mark the observance of the Feast, which though solemn is nevertheless re plete with the spirit of joy and optimism. While Orthodox Jewry devotes two days. Reform Judaism observes only one day.

BEEF CATTLE ARE MUCH NEEDED Lieutenant Governor McClain Makes Interesting State ment at Philadelphia Possibilities of a cattle shortage in the eighteen eastern counties of the State in the spring were point ed out yesterday by Lieutenant Gov ernor Frank B. McClain. The price of corn, when the fall crop is harvested, he said, would de termine the beef supply in the hands of the farmers throughout the east ern section of the State. If corn is bringing $1.50 a tmshel when har vested, ,fewer beef cattle wilj be bought by the farmers to carry through the winter than during the last live years. That corn will sell at the price quoted, Mr. McClain said, seemed highly probable. "1 have just returned from a trip through the West, made for the pur pose*of sizing up the cattle and crop situation." he said. "While the big corn growers in the Mississippi Val ley told me the prospects for a good crop would be realized, they impres sed on me tha it would fall below the expectations of those who have been prophesying a record-break ing yield. "From my own observations I know that in the eighteen eastern counties of the State fewer beef cat tle have been bought so far this year than in the last five years. If corn is selling at $1.50 a bushel when the harvest is in the farmers will not buy cattle to feed for beef for sale in the spring. They are hesi tating owing to the uncertainty as to what action the government will take in regulating prices, and while it would be impossible to establish by proclamation the selling price of beef, they are not taking any I chances." Community-Canning While the re&ults of the food con servation campaign started by the State Defense Committee In spring cannot be definitely ascertain ed yet, Mr. McClaln said the facts obtained indicate an appreciable in crease in food products through the cultivation of rear yards in the smaller communities throughout the State. At Lancaster the yield from the city lots became so heavy an ar rangement was made by a local com mittee with the Y. M. C. A. for the' use of its kitchen equipment. Since then thousands of cans and Jars of fruit 3 and vegetables havo been put up. The basis on which the canning was carried on provided for the re turn to the raiser of one-half of the produce supplied by him after it had been canned. The other half Is being held by the local charitable organizations and will be distributed during the winter among the de serving poor. . Educationally, the campaign has resulted in introducing, economic practices which* will be adhered to for many years following the termi nation of the war, Mr. McClain says. He also intimated the public's experi ence would tend logically to the es tablishment of community canneries, operated for the conservation of lo cal food surpluses. Plans for the establishment of ad ditional curb markets in several im portant industrial centers of the State were completed by the Food Supply Committee of the State Com mittee of Public Safety, at a meet ing yesterday afternoon in the fi nance building. Howard Heinz. State Food Direc tor. said the success of the markets established at Scranton and Allen town proved the plan practicable. Bethlehem and Pottstown are two of the centers where markets are proposed.
