! i iy IN SUNDAY SCHOOLS Bpecialist in Teaching of Children Tells Teachers to Lead Way to Chris MANY YOUTHS NOT IN CHURCH Befors an audfence made up almost entirely of men and women who are teaahers in the Sunday schools of the city | and one that campletely filled the au- ditorium of the Young Women's Chris- tian assoclation building yesterday after- noon, Miss Alice Gamlin, Sunday school | specialist of the Sunday party, spoke on Sunday school work. Miss Gamlin told of the Sunday school work done last week by her and the members of the party in a number of the local churches, announcing that it is | to be continued during the remainder of | the campaign and that this week it will | be conducted In the Central Park, Wal- nut Hill, Pearl and Grove Evangelical churches. She announced that the Sun day school rally for today will be held in the First Congregational, twelve of | the churches participating. The address of Miss Gamlin was & plain talk to the Sunday school teachers, she asserting that their aim should be to | lead boys and girls to Christ. She cau- tioned the teachers not to refer to the members of their classes as children, as the young folks resent this appelation, | much preferring to be called boys and | girls, regardless of their size and ages. The speaker contended that men or women should not be teachers, especlally | teachers in Sunday schools, unless they love boys and girls, “for,” she added, “if | you do not love them, there is somethin wrong with you. “The best thing abou milk is the cream,” asserted Miss Gam- | lin, “and this should apply in the Sunday | school, for there you find the cream, and | 1t rests with you to mould the character | of the future men and women.” She as- serted that she has no use for a Sunday | school teacher who conducts a class for | a long period of time and does not lead | the members to Christ and cause them to unite with the church which they at- tend. She cited an Instance of one teacher whom she knew who taught a class for years and never even asked | the boys and girls if they were Chris-| tians. “Ask the boys and girls of your| classes if they do not desire to lead Christian lives; pray with them and ex- tend to them the invitation to become members of the church. Should Joim Church While Young. In referring to the age at which chil- dren should become members of a church, Miss Gamlin took the position that at 8, | 10 or 12 they are perfectly competent to | decide for themselves and that at these ages it s much easier to lead them to Christ than after they are 16, 18 or older, Referring to Omaha statistics with reference to attendance, Miss Gamlin as- serted that In the schools of the city the enrollment is around 33,000. About half this number attend Sunday schools, while the others remain away. She contended | that this presents one of the greatest | opportunities that Christian workers could conceive in the matter of winning souls to Christ. Upon the Sunday school teachers, con- tended Miss Gamlin, rests almost entirely the responsibility of bringing young per- sons Into the church and helping young lives to grow and develop In Christlanity. 1t is the teachers who can turn them from satan to God and make them Christian men and women. She urged upon the teachers the necessity of doing some work outside the class rooms in the mat- ter of getting boys and girls into the Sunday schools, adding, “It is not your responsibility to compel, but to help the young lives to grow in Christ.” Swiss Makers of Watches Keep Busy (Correspondence of the Assoclated Press.) ZURICH, Switzerland, Sept. 6.—The | exports of Swiss watches In 1914 show a | decrease in value of more than $12,000,000, as compared with the previous year, But for the readiness with which Swiss man- | ufacturers adapted themselves to the| changed 'conditions thelr losses would have been still greater. Switzerland's watch export industry is the greatest in the world. Eighty-seven | per cent of all the foreign watches sold | in the various countries of the world are made In Switzerland. In 1913 there | were exported more than 15,000,000 | watches of a total value of some $37,000,- | 000, while less than 300,00 watches were | sold in the home market that year, not| 2 per cent of the total production. | When the war broke out the Swiss| watch industry was brought to a sudden | standstill. The manufacturers were most | pessimistic. There were no orders, there | was no money and credit was difficult to obtain. But changes in fashion soon | helped them to circumvent the hardships. | Obviously there was no longer any mar- | .ket for the more expensive watches, so the, makers turned to producing cheaper articles especially adapted for the mili-| tary. A great trade was done in silver, nickel and gunmetal cased watches, With luminous dials which found a ready sale, among army men. Excepting certain | towns and districts where only expensive | watches had been made, the industry gradually recovered from the first de- | pression and there are now fewer unem- | ployed workmen than any time since the war began.

TEUTONS FEAR ENGLAND IS BUYING GERMAN FRUIT (Correspondence of the Assoclated Press) ESSEN, Germany, Aug. ¥W.—Diligent efforts are being made to restrict the export, via the Rhine into Holland, of fruits that grow so plentifully along the great river. Dutch merchants, it has been established, have been taking out of Germany at quantities of cherries and berries which, it is suspected, are shippeq on farrther to England Local fruit merchants have just stum- ble¢ upon the fact that contracts al- ready exist under which the best of the late fruit has been sold to Dutchmen. The quantity is greater than all Holland would need or use. This fact, along with the fact that England always has im- ported German fruit, leads to the con- viction that Germany’s enemy i still be- ing fed by German fruit Stop the Child's Cough; It's Serk Croup and whooping cough are chil- dren's allments.

It 1s a verse more | often misunderstood than any other and | read by many to justify their living in sin. It contains a thought which I don't find so well expressed in any other verse, not on account of its peculiarity, but because it is used by men to justify thelr living In sin Therc is. much unjust criticlsm of David, who lived a virtuous and upright | Mfe. He sald. “Let wickedness of the wicked come to an end." It showed David's sympathy toward his fellow men when he wept when he heard of others sinning. But they ild not saved, | Some kept on sinning and living in sin He saw what was the need of the com- munity and the nation, and said: “O, God, if men won't stop sinning, notwith- standing your commands, then let them be consumed out of the earth.” When he said this, he offered the prayer, a por- tion of which I have chosen for my text. | 1 sometitaes find people who talk lightly of sin. 1 say he has lost all his respect for right, all of his respect for virtue, decency, all of his respect for everything or he wouldn't say It 1f only the men who say it were affected by their sins, 1 would work we be just as hard as I do. But we never live to ourselves. There are more affected by your sins than yourself, although 1 would work jus nly one. Makes Others Suffer. When you come staggering home, cuss- ing right and left and spewing and spit- ting, your wife suffers, your children suffer. Don't think that you are the only one that suffers. A man that goes to the penitentiary makes his wife and children suffer just as much as he does. You're placing a shame on your wife and chil- dren. If you're a dirty, low-down, filthy, drunken, whisky-soaked bum, you'll af- fect all with whom you come in contact. If you're a God-fearing man you will influence all with whom you come in contact. You can't live by yourself Lyman Beecner was a godly man, and he was the father of more brans than any other man. I occasionally hear a man nobody's business how I live.” Then I say he is the most dirty, low-down, whisky-soaked, beer-guzzling, bull- necked, foul-mouthed hypocrite that ever brain rotten enough to conceive such a statement and lips vile enough to utter it. You say, “If I am satisfied with my life, why do you want to Interfere with my business? If I heard a man beating his wife and heard her shricks and the children's as hard if y ou were the say, “It's leries and my wife would tell me to go jand see what was thé matter, and T went | in and found a great, big, broad-shoul- dered, whisky-soaked, hog-jowled, weasel- eyed, pug-gut dragging a little woman around by the hair and two children in the corner unconscious from his kicks and the others yelling in abject terror, | and he sald: ““What are you cw1ing in to interefere | with my personal liberty for? Isn't this| my wife, didn't 1 pay for the license to wed her?' You ought, or you're a bigamist. “Aren’'t these my children; | aidn’t 1 pay the doctor to bring them | Into the world?" You ought to or you're a thief. “If I want to beat them, what | is that your business, aren’'t they mine?" | Would I apologize? Never! I'd knock | seven kinds of pork out of that old hog. | Liberty Not License. Personal liberty is not personal license, I dare not exercise personal liberty, if it infringes on liberty of others. Our fore- tathers did not fight and die for personal | license, but for personal liberty bounded | by laws. Personal liberty is the liberty of & burglar, of a seducer, or a raper, or a | wolf that wants to remain in a sheep- | fold, or the weasel in a hen roost. You | have no right to vote for an institution that s going to drag your sons and daughters to hell. | It you were the only citizens of Omaha | you would have a perfect right to drive your horse down the street at break- | neck speed; you would have a right to| make a race track out of the streets for | your auto; you could build a slaughter | house in the public square; you could | build a glue factory In the public square But when the population increases you | can't do it. You say: “Why can't I| run my auto? I own it. Why cen't I run my horse? I own it. Why can't I bulld the slaughter house? I own the lot.”” Yes, but other people have rights. So law stands between you and per- | sonal libemty, you miserable dog. You! can’t build a slaughter house in your front yard, because the can't, law says you As long as I am standing here on | can swing my arme at will. But the | minute any one else steps on the plat- form my personal liberty ceases. It stops just onme inch from the other fellow's nose. Right there! (Indicating a point in the air) Fighting for Sinners. . When a person's acts affect only him- self they can be left to the consclence of | the individual, but when they affect| others the law steps in. When a child has diphtheria, you are not allowed per- sonal liberty; you are quarantined, be- cause your personal liberty would en- danger others if exercised. 8o you haven't any right to live in ain. You say you'll do It anyhow. All right, you'll £o to hell, too. Adam and Eve said they would eat the apple anyhow, and the world became a graveyard, and here's the result today. I look out into the world and see a man living in sin. 1 argue with him. I plead with him. I cry out warning words, I brand that man with a black brand, whose iniquities are responsible for the fall of others. No man lives to himself alone. I hurt or help others by my life. When you €0 to hell you're going to drag some one else down with you and If you go to heaven you're going to take some one else with you. You say you hate sin. Of course you do If you have respect. But you never saw any one in this city | who hates sin worse than 1 do or loves | a sinner more than I I'm fighting for the sinners. I'm fight- Ing to save your soul, just as a doc tor fights to seve your life from a dis- ease. I'm your friend, and you'll find that I'll not compromise one bit with sin. I'll do anything to help you. No man will argue that sin is a good thin Not a one who does not believe that the community would be better off if there was no sin.

As a rule & man wants something bet- ter for his children than he has had rnrl himself. My father died before I was| born and 1 lived with my grandfather. | He smoked, but he didn't want me to. He chewed, but he didn't want me to. He drank, but he didn’t want me to, He cussed, but he didn't want me to. He made wine that would make a man fight | his own mother after he had drunk It.| I remember how I used to find the bottles | and suck the wine through a straw or an | onion top. One day a nelghbor was In and my grandfather asked him for a chew. He went to hand it back, and I wanted some, He sald 1 couldn't have it. I said I wanted it anyhow, and he picked me up| and turned me across his knee and gave | me a crack that made me see stars as big as moons, If there s a father that hits the booze, he doesn’t want his son to. If he is keep-| ing some one on the side, he doesnt’ want | his son to. In other words, you would not want your son to live like you if you are not living right. Ah old general was at the bedside of his dying daughter. He didn’t belleve in the Bible, and his daughter said, “What shall 1 do? You'don't believe in the Bible, Mamma does. 17 1 obey one I'm going against the other." The old general put his arms around his dpughter and sald: “Follow your mother's way: it is the| safest.”” Man wants his children to have that which is sure. The Prodiga) Son. I have sometimes fmagined that young fellow in Luke 15. He came to his father and said, “Dig up. I'm tired of this and want to see the world.” His father didn't know what he meant. ‘“Come across with the mazuma clean, divy, 1 want the coin, se Finally the father tumbled, and he said: I gat you,” and ho divided up his share and gave it to the young man. Then he goes down to Babylon and starts out on a sporting life, He meets come the young blood and the gay dame. 1 can imagine that young fellow the first time he swore. If his mother had been near he would have looked at her and blushed rosy red. But he thought he had to cuss to be a man No man can be a good husband, no man | can be a good fellow, no man can be a respectable citizen, no man can be a gent- leman, and swear. You can hang out a sIEn_of gentleman, but when you cuss you might as well take it Ing There are three things which will ruin any town and give it a bad name, Open licensed saloons; a dirty, cussing, swear- ing gang of blacklegs on the streets, and vile story tellers. Let a town be known for these three things, and these alone, and you could never start a boom half bIg enough to get one man there, Old men, young men, boys swear. What do you cuss for? It doesn't do you any good, gains you nothing in business, soclety; It loses you the esteem of men. God sald more about cussing than any- thing. God sald, “Thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not bear false witness, but God sald t more about cussing than them all and they are still cussing. *“Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God In vain, for the Lord will not hold him gulltless who taketh His name in vain. No use for Cursing. I can see how you can get out of any- thing but cussing. I can see how a man could be placed In such a position that he would kill and be exonerated by the law of God and man, if he killed to pro- tect his life or the life of another. I can see how a man could be forced to steal if he stole to keep his wife from starving. In Chicago several years ago there was & long-continued strike and the last division of the treasury had given each man 2 cents. A man went Into the rafl- road yards and got a bag of coal from one of the cars. They pinched him and | he came up before a judge. He told the | judge that he had only % cents of the last division and he spent that for food. His wife and two children were at home | starving and he had no fire. He stole the eoal fo cook thelr food. The judge thundered, “Get out of this room and! get home and bulld that fire as yutekly | as you can.' Say, boys, If I was on a jury and you could prove to me that a father had | stolen a loaf of bread to keep his wife | from starving you could keep me In the | room until the ants took me out through | the keyhole before I'd stick him. That | may not be law. 1 don't know, but you'll | find there 18 & big streak of human nature in “BUL" There fsn't a fellow in this crowd but what would be disgusted if his wife or he does.

One man stuck out his foot and tripped one for fun and the youngster got up, about 5 years of age and started such a string of profanity that it would seem the demons in hell would close their ears and cry “enough.” The man staggered back. It was his own son. He turned to the crowd. “Boys,” he sald, “I never know what an influence 1 have been until just now. If any of you every hear me cuss again step up and knock me down and when I come to I'll thank for it. I never knew what 1 was doing to my children.” You sa “Bil, T ean't quit You lle. If T was mayor of this city and had authorlty to put men on the corners you cussing.” with double-barrcled shotguns to shoot every one who cussed, you'd see how much cussing there would be. 1 suppose if the law against stealing was repealed and placed against cussing all of you would start to steal Just think, when at last they put the clods in on your coffin and your wite and children go home, and try to earn & liv- ing without you and look at your plcture and all they will remember is your curses and blows. What an awful heritage to leave behind, and yet that's what many a man does. Take & young buck that cusses and he will crush your daughter's honor like he would an egy shell. If you never become a Christian, men, for God's sake your cussing. stop You can’t go anywhere any more, in a car, a depot, a restaurant, but what you find some friend with his foul-mouthed oaths ready to spew them out. What an awful place hell will be when it gets all of that bunch down there. Like Father, Like Son. Here's a fellow who says, “Bill, T don't cuss very much, only when I get mad.” He says, “I don't drink very much, just a little, and always put sugar and water, in my toddy at that." Oie father says to his son: ‘“You've been chewing my tobacco.” The boy de nied it. Pretty soon he found some of his whisky gone. The boy denied that. Then he missed some money, and the boy denfed that, Finally his son was no good, but he would take him to town and get him a job. He goes to a grocery store and tells the owner he has just the boy he is looking for, “Sure, he smokes and chews and steals a little,” he says, but that will help the man out, as he Is that kind of a business man. The grocer throws him out. The father thinks it is mighty queer that a fellow like that doesn't want a boy just like him, so he takes him across the | street to get him started in the lawyer business, but he tells the lawyer the same thing and says he has the making of a mighty good lawver in him, But the lawyer throws them out of his office and asks him if he doesn't know that as a nation we are run by lawyers and gives a long list .of statistics to prove it, and tells him that nobody wants a crook., “Take the kid and get out." He can't get in a lodge, and finds that 67 per cent of the members of the Ma- sonlc lodge are professed Christians, and they'll blackball a mutt like that 64 per | cent of the Odd Fellows are professing Christians; 51 per cent of the Knights of Pythias, and 48 per cent of the Wood- men are professing Christians.

No- body wants him. But God has prepared one place for all, the Mercy Seat. Man has invented the penitéftiary, the jails, the scaffolds; but God has one plice for all who want to be square, and when he gets down on his knees before the Merey Seat and says he wants to live right, he can get in the lodges, he can get In the banks, and then the saloon doesn’t want him, 0, yes! The boys are going fast these days. I suspect you can remember when a stage coach went across Pennsylvania at three miles an hour; then they went in relays and went four and one-half; then the first train went fifteen miles an hour, and now today look at the Pennsy. Eighteen hours from Chicago to New York, and they go eighty miles an hour. A friend of mine was on a train not long ago when he noticed it slowing down. He asked the conductor what was the matter. “Oh, I have orders to slow to seventy-five miles an hour here.” When I was playing ball T got my leg hurt and T was going home on No. 5. I looked out the window and thought we were going about fifty miles an hour. I asked the “con” when he came through and he sald we were going about fifty miles an hour then, but we would go seventy-five as soon as he rounded the curve below. O, we're golng fast these days.

I saw him coming. I yelled “whopee,” and he was gone. Down below where we were standing there wagq a double curve and the fire- man sald afterward: “The blankety blank fool just pulled her out three more notches.”” The fireman began to pray, although he was not a praying man. But it stuck to the track and when he pulled into his last stop he was just two minutes ahead of time and the C. B, & Q. 18 carrying the mall today.

Story of a Gambler, When 1 was In.the Young Men's Chris tian nesoclation work I knew a gambler who converted. He was making $7,600 | & year and he was golng up and down the country showing that you can't beat a gambler at his own game. He tells a story of & game which was on and one man was accused of ringing In a cold deck. The lle was passed and & man shot another dead. Ho was sontenced to dfe and as he was | being prepared on the scaffold, his lttle 4-year-old son toddled up the steps and |sald, “Come home, papa." The sherift |was a kind man, and he unbuckled his |feet and hands and let him lift the child up. He told his son he couldn't come home and for him to go away now and the sheriff would take care of him. Then he turned to the crowd and cried: “‘For God's make, boys, don't let my son be what T have been.” The trap fell and he shot Into eternity. A collection was taken for that child |among the crowd and he was placed in a Christian home. Whon he was i1 they {gave him his money with accumulated interest. He started out on a career of rime. Mo got down so low that they wouldn't let him sleep in the police sta- {tlons. He tried to get enough, and would clean cuspidors in dirty, filthy saloons to got enough to live. Oh, men, blood will tell. I'm pleading {with you that you yield to Christ, {that your children's lives will not blighted, Men, there's three things you should always remember whers your wives are concerned. First, show a deep personnl Interest In her. She's entitled to It and she'll Tove you the better for it. Second, treat her as a companion. She Is your life comparfon and you should treat her as such. Third, show her the affection every woman's heart Is craving for. It you don't, you shouldn't wonder if some day another fellow appears on the scene and gives her all those little attentions she is craving for and that you have neglected to give her.
