Some of us are traders. Some take Evangelistic preaching 7:30. Theme up agriculture. Others enter profes- "Weighed in the- balance and found sional service, and still others go into the manufacturing industries. At present, localities also specialize.

Pittsburgh makes steel; Detroit auto- i mobiles; Troy, collars; Chicago, products. In this manner, each of us is helping to create the things and services with which to satisfy the wants of ourselves and others, and then we exchange among ourselves. Coffee on the hillside of Sao Paulo is worthless to us in this we will pay for it in our own neighborhood. Wool on a sheep's back in Australia is of more use to the sheep than to man, but when sheared, woven into cloth, and made into garments, it is essential to our comfort and well-being. Iron ore as found in the ground is only rusty colored stone and of no value to the ordinary individual; but when it is mined, smelted, coo- verted into steel, and made into an automobile, many of us consider it worth a part of our income.

the form or place he wants it He has ''many wants which can be satisfied only by things front the remote pans of the world. Business changes these things into the shapes and transports them to the places where they will be of the most use. Some wants are for injurious things, such as opium and intoxicants.

Morning worship at 10:50 m. Sermon by the pastor, subject, "The Way of Self Delivery." Evening service at 8:00 o'clock, Sermon by the pastor, subject, "Th'e Value of Education." The pastor believes that he has a message for the youth of our city, particularly those attending school, and the high school students are especially invited to attend the evening service. "Not to be ministered unto, but to minister" is the Christ-like ambition of this church, and we shall strive to attain our objective by rendering generous community-wide service whenever and wherever possible. natural cravings for but public opinion has stepped in'to restrain efforts of business along these lines. In a way, it is incorrect to speak' of industry producing so much goods, of the railways producing so much transportation, of factory workers producing so much service.

All of: these groups are really creating satis-'- factions for wants, within the limits' set up by society. Business is essentially creative. It takes goods from places where they are so abundant as to be almost worthless and delivers them where they are scarce and can command a premium. It stores up the surplus food of summer for our use during the scarcity of winter; and brings all manufactured goods to our door at the time when we want them. Business changes form, annihilates space, conquers time.

Business, therefore, is not an end In itself. It the servant of human wants. The most successful business men always keep this idea of service in mind. Electric Newt. MONARK SPRINGS PHTLLIBER-NEWDIGER Tommy Basil Philliber and Miss Nettie Newdlger were quietly married Sunday afternoon by the Rev.
