' MOYER INTERESTS LARGE " ATTENDANCE AT BIBLE CONFERENCE LAST NIGHT | Evangelist Mercer of Minneap- olis Will Take Part in Pro- gram Starting Tomorrow A splendid attendance marked the first' week night service of. the Bible conference now being held in the Bap tist church. The -auditorium -of the church was ‘filled last night. The eonference will run on thru ,the week, with sessions daily at three and eight p. m., closing next Sun* Wool, bright .. ted that Evangeliat|Deacons, each ........ day. Tt is-exp @. Allyn Mércér;:of Minneapolis, wil arrive in the city tomdfrow to take part in the program. " Last night Mr. Moyer gave a study on ¢The Scriptures,” dealing with what they are, what they do, and what they require. In dealing with the inspiration of the Bible Mr. Moy- er stated that he did not feel called upon to defend the Word of God, for “the best evidence of the Bible is the Bible itself.” He said he believ- ed in the Bible as the Word of Go because of the testimony of Jesus to the authority of the Old Testa- ment scriptures, and the promise He gave concerning the writing of the New Testament; also because the Bible contains-history pre-written, or prophecy. ‘It is true man would not write the Bible if he could, but more than that, he could not if he would. Only God can write the fu- ture. And prophecy in the-Word of Go has been fulfilled to the minutest details hundreds of years after it was written. Thén the subject matter of the Bible proves its inspiration; it is .the only beook that fits into human " meeds.” HOMAGE PAID BOY SCOUTS ON RETURN Washington, Sept. 21 (Capital News Service).—The return home in fine shape, and with interesting stories to tell, of the big unit of Boy Scouts which recently went to Burope tp attend the Olympian games, and visit places of interest, historic and otherwise, again centers attention upon this fine organization of juveniles. At the round-up in Lon- don of Scouts, principally British and Amf:rican, the highest in the realm delighted in paying honor to the youths. As was true of other organizations and associations, the world war gave the Scouts an opportunity for service of such character as probably will not come again in the lives as Scouts of these boys, and national admira- tion and affection for them was a result. Homage to the youths who sre taught to observe sound ethics, good manners and healthy bodies as part of their every day life comes spontaneously whenever - these boys appear in public, either- individually or as a unit. Of very great interest, due to this regard for the Scouts, therefore, will e ' a- decision :rendered recently in New Orleans by Judge Rufus E. Foster, president of the New Orleans council of that organization, and! other officials of the body, to the effect no division of the Boy Scouts of America .shall be used in a po- litical campaign. This decision grew out of a letter f#rom an interested citizen to Judge! Foster, 'to the effect announcement had ‘ been publicly made that, the| sgoutmaster of a New Orleans troop, assisted by boys of the troop, would assist in keeping order at a barbecue to be given under the auspices of a political‘organization in that city. “American Boy Scouts are the equals, ir not superiors, of the scoutsl of ‘any naticn on earth,” said' Ezra J. Crane, of Honolulu, Eagle Scout and senior party leader, in Washing- ton. “This was demonstrated at the recent Scouts’ jamboree at London, England, wheze Scouts from thirty- six nations, in all parts of the world, topk part. The newspapers gave the _ boys from-the United States credit for being the best trained group at the jamboree, and the American boys certainly carried off honors in every contest that was staged.” KKK KRR KKK KKK * PINEWO0OD * 30k % Ok % b 2 2 0 % ok % b A4 Ted Peterson of Debs returned from’ a business trip to Duluth Tues- day, § Louis,Lind returned from Bemi?l*ji ‘Wednesday, ‘where he has been for several days receiving medical treat- ment.

A total of something like Minety mil- lion franked envelopes will have been used by members of the house and senate by the time election day rolls around. The cost of printing franked en- velopes will run well over $200,000, it is estimated, and postage on the same would represent to Uncle Sam, were it paid for, something like $1,- 800,000. 76,699,876 franked envelopes were sent. out “to. voters; a big increase over 1900, fthen but 28,600,000 were used.
