this great organization of Christian
youth is stressing during the month
of January.
The International Testimony Ser-
vices will be held by many thou-
sands of societies both in America
and abroad. The theme for these
services will be “What Following
Christ Means To Me.” Arrange-
ments have been made with societies
in other parts of the world, ;
which American societies sending flo
headquarters reports of their mee
ings (including testimonies, hymn
and other features), will receive i
return the report of a meeting held
in some foreign country. These
reports will be sufficiently detailed
so that any society will be able to
reproduce the prayer meeting just
as it was held abroad. It is expect~
ed that these reproductions of “im-
ported” meetings will take place on
World Peace Sunday, May 19. A
number of societies in Lancaster
County are expected to take part in
this feature of the observance.
The observance of this 48th An-
niversary will begin with Denomi-
national Day, Jan. 27. In their
Prayer Meetings on that day, Christ-
ian Endeavor societies everywhere
will discuss the subject, “How Can

license as it would be to run an au-
tomobile without a mew license on
or after January 1.” The Bureau of
Animal Industry announced today.
More than 550,000 dog license
tags have been sent to the county
treasurers throughout the Common-
wealth and are now available to dog
owners according to the Pennsyl-
vania Bureau of Animal Industry.
Many Lancaster ecountains have
already made application for their
license.
