PURPOSES OF A
GREAT MOVEMENT
Laymen's Missionary Campaign
Has World Wide End.
To consider new world condi
tions and America's enlarged re
spof'tlbility. To study the missionary progress
of recent years.
To project plans looking toward
the accomplishment of our whole
missionary duty.
To emphasize the adequacy of
the Gospel to meet modern social
conditions.
To increase the spiritual power
and efficiency of the local church.
To secure the general use of the
best methods of missionary educa
tion and finance.
To Inspire laymen to take their
part In the extension of the king
dom of Christ
These ire tho objects of the great
Interdenominational campaign being
conducted under the auspices of the
Laymen's Missionary Movement. The
Harribburg convention will be held
at the Grace M. E. church, and will
open with a great mass meeting on
the afternoon of Sunday, March 12.
Many denominations In the United
States and Canada have organized
committees to promote the spirit and
methods of the general movement In
their own communions. Twenty sec
retaries are employed to give their
whole time to supervision and exten
sion work.
The Laymen's Missionary Move
ment has been hewing along the lines
of the national missionary policy
adopted at the Chicago congress in
1910. In 1913 the movement took In
all the missionary forces, both home
and foreign and promoted during the
last two years under the name of the
United Missionary campaign over 625
conferences and conventions In as
many places In an effort to reach
with the message and the method ol
the movement every center of over
5000 people In the United States and
Canada.
The ctly of Harrlaburg never does
things half-way, when once it becomes
aroused. And the snap the local com
mittee Is putting into the preparations
for the big Laymen's Missionary con
vention, to be held In Grace M. E.
!iurch of that city, on March 12 to
j 4 Is assurance enough of Its sue-
ess. This U the third convention
rf the kind that Harrlfcburg has en
tertained In six years and this prom
ises to be the best yet.
Mr. W. E.'Douhty, the educational
secretary of the movement, will heaJ
the team of fifteen speakers, booked
for this meeting. This team includes
such well-known names as George In
nes, who Is establishing a great Chris
tian university In the heart of the Mos
len world at Cairo, Egypt; Dr. C. B.
Sclineder, president of North Japan
college; Dr. L. B. Wolf, for twenty-five
years in India; Dr. F. A. Agar, of Afri
ca, now efficiency secretary of tde Bap
tlst church; Rev. S. H. Littell, one ol
the bep young men In the Chinese
mission field, whom the Chinese Chris
tians generously "loaned to America"
for tills campaign. Secretaries of de
nominational boards and experts In
methods and finances vl'.l also speak.
Denominational rallies will be held on
Tuesday afternoon, when the different
communions will make special prepara
tion to make a program of real practi
cal value, and when the social features
of the convention wilt be prominent
It will be a fine chance for laymen
to know and meet the lea lers in their
own denomination. Conservation work
will then be discussed and definite
programs adopted. A woman's rally
will be held In Monday evening In
an adjacent church, and a young peo
ple's rally on Tuesday evening. Only
men are admitted to the convention
proper, and that by credential card,
Issued upon the payment of the one
dollar registration fee, which covers
all expenses of the convention. No
offerings are taken, nor money solicit
ed. The Movement is not an organi
zation to administer funds, but exists
solely to stimulate the work of lay
men in their own local churches.
The conventions thus far held In
this nation-wide campaign have regis
tered on an average 1200 delegates
to a convention, or 60,000 In all. Thir
teen cities a how a gain of 8344 over
1909. This Is a distinct challenge to
the church by men, who are today
thinking In world-termB as never be
fore and who are, therefore, peculiar
ly accessible to the missionary mes
sage. It is the church's one supreme
opportunity to enlist Its men In the
world-program of Christianity and to
meet the cail of the world for some
adequate spiritual leadership.
Some of the convention Ibexes are
as follows:
"America, the Strategic Batte
Ground," "In the Philippines," "Tje
Sunrise Klmrdom," "Turkty in War
Times," "Building a Nation of Broth
ers," "Wielding the Spiritual Korcej,"
"Christianizing American Life."
"The Adequacy of the Gospel to
Meet Modern Social Con 11 ions."

LOOKING FOR A JOB.
. BY JAMES D. HOOP AND DAVID SIPES.
We left home on Monday, for city life to try, and
Our first stop was Mount Union, and
I'll tell you we were dry. '
We went into a hotel there,
We asked the lady for rate9, Bhe
Said, "if you want to stop here,
It is $2.00 straight."
We went next morning to the powder mill,
Some powder for to dry.
The wages that they paid there was pretty high,
With a bonus that they held back,
In case that you should die.
Then we decided that life was also high,
So we hied away to Altoona,
The machine shops there to try.
We stayed all night in Altoona,
Its a beautiful city I think, but
When we tried to get a job,
Things seemed on the blink, so
We started for old Johnstown, the
Lorain shops to try, and
After a hard examination,
We succeeded, by and by.
Our first work was in the foundry,
The magneti pots we filled, and
After we had finished that,
There was a new furnace there to build.
Tossing bricks to the platform was,
Fine exercise, fine training,
To those, so inclined, but
To that kind of training,
We were blind.
We landed a job on the dry floor, which
Was some better I think,
Just pulling flasks from the ovens,
Where it is cozy and warm.
You can feel your face burning, and
Your hair begins to singe and crack,
You wonder, if the place down below,
Can be any hotter, than the ovens of,
The Lorain's old steel shack.
Clamping up flasks on the dry floor,
Is a nice easy task yon'll find.
Those flasks are as hot as so,
You had better be careful sometimes.
You are clamping up the flasks in a hurry,
The heat will be out pretty soon, when
The boss comes around and says, hurry up,
We want to finish up by noon" just then,
You miss the clamp, and
A ringer nail gets its doom, which
Sets you to thinking, that
We will be riding over the B & O. soon.

BUSH 5-PASSENGER TOURING CAR.
This is the Biggest and Best Automobile value
you can find at the price. The Bush Car has been
tested out. It's a Hill Climber. We guarantee the
Bush Car will climb any hill that any other car, re
gardless of price or weight.
REMEMBER THAT THE CAR HAS A WHEEL
BASE OF 112 INCHES. There is not a car on the
market at anywhere near the price of Bush with
this length of wheel base. They usually run from
96 to 106 inches. And the
PRICE ONLY $675 F. 0. B. CHICAGO.
The raw material used in the Bush was pur
chased over a year and a half ago. The same raw
material costs in the open market now, nearly double.-
This car must sell for a much higher price in
1917, if raw material prices stay up.
THE BUSH HAS POWER.
The Motor in the Bush has a 5-inch stroke. You
can throttle the car down to 3 miles an hour on
high speed and the engine will never miss.
WATSON G. PECK,
Warfordsburg, Pa.
Has the' Agency for this car and will be glad to give
you a demonstration of its merits at any time.
Don't buy a car until you see the BUSH.
amendment, the majority given
is highly significant as an indica
tion of public sentiment The
vote stood 54 to 40 in tho lower
bouse.
The late George Fitch told us
that Kentucky was noted for 'its
sunsbineand its moonshine, its
blue grass and its red noses,"
and the popular idea may be that
the road to prohibition for that
state is long and rocky ButKon
tucky is nearly white on the pro
hibition map. Of its 119 coun
ties, 108 are already dry and
seventy five jer cent of its pop
ulation are living in no-hcense
territory. As dry territory in
creases, moonshine and red noses
decrease.

Are you paying to sit in the dark?
PAYING to ruin your eyes, paying to smell burn

you doing these things?
Unless your home is eauipped with Rayo Lamps

from a Rayo Lamp filled with slow-burning

Rayo Lamp, are beautiful an ornament to any room. And they
burn brightly, without flicker or smell. Your dealer can show you
a special design for any room, ranging in price from 11.60 up. No
matter what sort of light you've got, the addition of a few Rayo
Lamps will make your home brighter and the folks happier.
But Rayo Lamp are at their best when burning Atlantic Rayolieht
OiL It is the one kerosene that burns without smoke or smell that'
is always the same. It gives the brightest light and the greatest
heat for the least money.
The use of Atlantic Rayolight Oil doesn't stop with burning and
heating; thousands of housewives have written us that it's the very
finest thing to brighten faded carpets, keeps the moths away from
closets, shelves and drawers, cuts grease better than anything else,
and that for washing windows it's without equal.
Be certain to ask for Atlantic Rayolight Oil by name
It costs no more than the unknown, unreliable kerosene.
