Mr. Blough spoke at The Pines in connection wiin the Union Services which are being conducted every Sunday evening during the summer months. A crowd of about 200 person sheard his address, -many of. them from automobiles parked! near the platform.

Some of the statements in hi ser- i mon were: I "The angel prophesied concerning I John the Baptist that he should pos- sess this kind of greatness. By I studying his life there can be great assurance that he did not attempt to be great in the sight of men. This child became the forerunner of -the Men Want Greatness Men and women ate anxious for greatness. They desire it for their childiKn and will make almost any-kind of sacrifice for it They would hardly want to be a John the Parents want their children to be good but not too Exceedingly good They would draw the line at John's wilderness experience. They are anxious for the outward signs of greatness.

The clause, "great in the sight of the Lord," somehow limits the blessing. It has an unpleasant sting in it for the worldly mind desiring worldly honor. N- Some attributes of Greatness arc, pleasure to parents, a profit to others, great and accomplished in some special line. But would you want them good at the cost of the coveted greatness? Would you have them true to God if it meant collapse of all your day dreams? John's Was True Greatness John was great In the eyes of Jesus. He who views the reality of i things sees his real greatness.

His was the greatness which endures. In this world there are only a lew places where greatness can shine. Every one may be great in the sight of the Lord. Happy he who has lived so that he shall be adjudged great in the sight of the Lord. His great shall endure, it be still considered great at the end of the age when the eternal judge shall pass upon it.

Olive 1 Associated Pres.y STEKWAT, France. Aug. Di--regarding -the recommendation David Lloyd George, the form' British prime minister, that should not make speeches on Sundays or In places where war memories would be aroused. Premi Poincare- today made two addressy to emphasize France's imswerving d- termination not to change her polio, toward Germany. He.

delivered his first address fh morning at Marville at the unveilin' of a monument to military, and civ victims of the war. This afternoon jie came to Stena to dedicate a war memorial in tli town that during most of the wa: was the domain and pleasure groUm. of the former German crown prince His addresses here and at Marvin-had been written before the lasi British note was received, althoucl-he had the document before him spoke. I Sure of Rights "Chancellor Cuno." said the --premier, his Marville speech, referring to the German chancellor's recent address in the Reichstag, "undoubtedly would not have used such senseless language if the Allies had unanimous in showing them their. will in ordering him not to re volt longer against the legitimate measures taken by 'Belgium and France." The premier declared that the German government was leading Germany to catastrophe, adding "we are sure not only of our rights but our methods." "We can only smile indulgently, at Cuno's blustering." M.

Poincare' cpn-tinued. "If" he thinks Germany wa's not thoroughly beaten in the war she declared: if he believes Germany can violate with -impunity the treaty she signed: if he thinks we are disposed to go on indefinitely without the rep arations she owes us: if he believes we will go out of the Kuhr before our claim is paid, then he is greatly mistaken. And if he does not believe all this, but only says it. it is his compatriots he hoodwinks and leads to ruin." Not Oat To Crush Germany M. Poincare" concluded by saying that Germany now, as 1918 on the eve.

of her military downfall, was seeking to mislead opinion. "It is not necessary," he de.ared. "not to weaken, but to have the last word. It was not only the bravery of the Allied armies th.t won the war but the unshakeable will of the The whole nation has now" the same will to w-in peace, and it will do so. Your.

dead demand and their demand will be granted." In his afternoon address in Stenay. M. Poincare said that that part of the world influenced by Germany refused to believe France has no ulterior motive in her present policy. But, he added, "we can only renew our answer we do not think of crushing any one; re do not say 'Delenda Germania. nor we do not wish to take a single bit of ground thai docs not belong to us." Object Only to Abuse.

M.Poincare referred to the speech When comic strips lack humor, when movie comedies fail to draw, a laugh, or when life begins to lack zest, go to the beaches. Was it- that "Immortal Bard" who said "Watch people and you will see a vaudeville show for nothing" or something like Anyway It's true. Go to the beaches any hot day and watch the antics of bathers. They are antics, unmistakably and added their costumes, will make anyone laugh. A portly gentleman in a rented bathing suit picks his way tenderly over the pebbles on the beach with an air as if he were the only pebble.

The suit doesn't quite do him lustice- It cotton and holds water in such a way that it makes him look like trie proverbial drenched hen. His few wisps of hair tilt at a perilous angle and he lifts his hand to brush them back. but changes his mind and swats a fly instead. i He Is quite prominently built and his costume aggravates his stout ness. It is clear to be seen that the suit wagn't tailor made, just a hit or miss proposition.

Yes, -H missed a good deal, "Don't Go Near the Water" Gingerly picking his way on up the beach, he-is lost in the. crowd but a vivid yellow bathing suit rages into view. It's a woman. Matching must be her for she has a cap of the same color and to boot she's candy hair. There is a little grace in her walk but she appears to be timid about entering the water.

Maybe those tiger stripes her costume are afraid and will run. VThat's the way it looked to a casual observer. As she walks by, the women gasp. Some deplore the fact, others snicker and ridicule. The men look interested.

But here comes a good laugh a thin man in a gray suit seemingly built for Mother Hubbard. It's woman's suit and how he ever got nerve enoughto go to the beach thusly attired might as-well be The snickers of those nearby graduate into outright guffaws, but the man is too busy sprinkling himself with water "to get used to It by degrees, you know" to pay any attention. Dlvesf My, Yea Out on the pier and the springboard at the municipal beach the sights are equally funny. "Belly toppers" and "back breakers" constitute the larger number of "exhibition" dives. "Look, Harvey," yells a youngster standing on the pier, "now watch.

Can you do this Harvey? Oh. Harvey! say. watch me, lla-a-rvey." and the youngster hops off into the two and a half feet of water feet first and holding his nose after Harvey's attention has been attracted. Legs spraddle out in all directions as would be divers jump oft the springboard. Occasionally a good diver mounts the board and in a man ner as if he owned the world, bounces off.

So thick are the number of bathers in the water that frequently divers collide with them, and there results considerable spluttering ana. not infrequently, condemnations. Atlantic City had little chance Sunday compared to the municipal beach. Bathers and spectators were out in full force. The water was somewhat jlirty.

due to heavy rains in the upper territory of the lake but this fact did not daunt any one. Neither did grotesque costumes prevent any from going in for a dip. All in all, it was apparent that "a good time was had by all." If there is doubt in the mind that tnere isn't the makings of a good laugh at the beaches take a trip but wear loose clothing something that won't rip. WEDDINGS LAG GEE-HO WOLD.

SMITH 1 Almighty Dollar Brings Only III Reputation, Declares Pastor SPEAKS AT GASTMAN That Christ remains the unrivalled interprter of truth, that the Golden Rule will solve many difficult problems in every day life, that the rule of gold gains America nothing but an unwholesome reputation, and that the big need today is the application of the Golden Rule in our na tional progress, were points stressed by Dr. Chesteen Smith, pastor of the First. Methodist church In his sermon. "The Golden Rule and the Rule of Gold," at the Gastman school last evening. Excerpts from his address follow: "Jesus Christ remains the unrivalled interpreter of Truth.

He re veals to the world its best working principles for harmonious living. The Golden Rule has ever been recognized as. great in theory, but hard in practise as a working theory. Its practise would solve many of the difficult problems of our present day. The rule of gold in our American life has had much to do with- the disturbances of It has been the cause of It has dictated the worship of visionless minds, and with a great host of people the dollar is worshipped as the Almighty.

The rule of gold has furnished standards by which many judge success or failure. It has given the American people the reputation of being a race" of money-grabbers. Ration Needs Golden Rule -The tremendous needs of our day is for the application of the Golden Rule to the nation's needs. It would mean that if we desire that the nations of the world should maintain a fraternal and peaceful attitude to ward us, then we must not withhold any possiblo encouragement to peace and good fellowship. If we were in tht spirit of darkness as are the people of Africa; if we were held back by the time-ridden customs as are the people China: if we were living under' the curse of superstl tion as are the people of India: if iwe were terrorized by persecution as are the people of Armenia, I am inclined to think that we should be grateful indeed, if, having knowl edge and means, they would come to our aid.

One of the most auspicious signs of settlement of the industrial troubles is for the employer and employe to." exchange viewpoints. Whenever they are great enough to exchange places long enough to look through each other's eyes, their in dustrial problem is far on the way to solution. If we desire that others should deal honestly and fairly with us, then we should rise to the stand ards which we set. If we could take this rule and apply it to all the perplexities of our social life we would be following the method which would do much to make this a happier and better world. PICNIC IN NELSON PARK All Available Tables in Use During Sunday; Family Groups Grow Nelson park was dotted with pic nickers Sunday with every available bench and table utilized.
