That was Indeed a distinguished
tethering that honored the home of
Mr. Henry C. Prick, of Severn tieth

asm day last week. Among the not
able man who sat down to diaasr la
this highly honored home were tike
following: Marshal Joffre. M. Bane
Vivmal. CeL loooevdt, Mayer Mitch
ell, Oca. Leonard Wood, J. P. Morgan
Chaa. Hughes, Cornelias Vanderbilt,
aad a great somber of others little
less distinguished. It la said that
Marshal Joffre aad Col Booeerek
sat neat t* each other, and talked
interestedly and incessantly of the
greet problesu that sow confront
the world. As they talked Marshal
Joffre frequently patted CeL Roose
velt oa the ehouldcr ie hearty ap
proval of What he said. They talked
in French for the moot part, bat once
in a while the Col. waa heard to tay
"Bally’* la oar owa language.
Jtcv. and Mrs. 8. C. Glean of
Orvenaboro arrived in Dana last Sat

■ervks they become larger. Good
interest is manifested, and gracious
results are expected. Mr. Glean is
doing a great work as oa* of the
Evangelists of the N. C. Coa
rervnce. in on* 01 UM Kmcn tail
week kc stated iaeidently that mere
than thirty thooaad seuls bad been

Jast what inch a record means earn
not be measured by aay human wis

tram the lives of thirty thousand led

known only to God.
Mrs. Glean is wonderfuly gifted
in song, and in rendering a terries
to our Lord's kingdom littlo leas
valuable than that rendered by her
consecrated husband.
The services will continue through
this and nest week. The morning
services are held at tm o’clock, and
the evening service at eight. The
pub Me is cordially invited to attend
these services.
Here in oar highly favored coun
try K is not aa easy matter for w
ta realise tho destitution and actual
suffering in some of the wanatrek
en nations arrow the seas. The
Washington Past in a recent issue
contained this eta tenant: “Gcrmany’i

in Germany. A nation cannot subsist
forever upon the ratiens allowed
there. Medical expert:: are more tike*

Our comment on the situation in Ger
many ie this: If the guilty one* were
the only ones suffering thus on ac
count of this dreadful war, we would
not be greatly concerned about It,
but as a matter of fact the guilty
ones are not suffering at all for
