Number 50 Eloquent Sermon By Rev. Chirgwin Financial Secretary of the Montana Deaconess Home Greatly Encouraged by Results of Trip Through the Valley A goodly congregation greeted Rev. Chirgmn at the Wisdom church last Sunday evening. The Nverend gentleman, who is the fin- ae rial secretary of the Montana D^pdness College, had been in the begin tot several days previous and met with considerable success in soliciting funds for the institution, which is non-sectarian. Mr. Chirg win preached an eloquent sermon, making a strong plea for the men and woman of the future. In the course of his remarks he said: \A good home is not purchased with money, nor can it be main tained with hirelings In the most magnificent mansions are sometimes found the most desolate and unhappy hearts The children of today are to be the founders of the homes of tomorrow. Are they being trained i» lives that promise perpetuation of the joys of this most sacred place * Are the scenes and surroundings of their lives such as to make it easy and natural to travel in those paths that lead to long and continued peace’ Are not some of the so-called best par ents thoughtlessly teaching their wee ones dishonesty and falsehood, and b y their examples establishing idleness and frivolity as the sum- mum bonun of life ’ The parent who makes a threat he does not Intend ty fulfill w plan ting smtrttthfullness in the young mind, that if it does not yield a crop of falsehood, will one of disrespect for the unwise parent \ Montana Should Win Thi$ Prize Rural Instructors Meet November 24 For the best peck of oats shown at the National Com Exposition (Dallas, Texas, February 10th to 24th, 1914) the State of Colorado is offering a Silver Trophy, valued at $1,000,00. To become the pro perty of any state, this must be won three times. Already western Canada has won it twice. The farmers from that section grow good oats, and ftunless Montana growers come to the rescue, this fine trophy <fls liable to cross the International boundary line for the last time. Montana oats were good enough to win at New York and they are good enough to win at the coming Corn Exposition It only requires one peck, and we appeal to the growers to prepare their best sam ples and at least make entries in the oat classes at this coming show We shall be glad to furnish full information about entering and shipping exhibits.
