tute the Tfton Gazette contained the
following paragraph:
x“The Bacealaerate address was de
livered by Rev. T. S. Hubert, of Doug
las, who had ‘The Soverignty of the
Home’ for hia shbject. It was an ap
peal to hight ideals along intensely
practical lines and made a very deep
impression upon his highly pleased
audience which filled the large au
ditorium, every avalable chair being
occupied and late comers not being
able to find room.”

I must confess to some impatience'
with sermons to Men and Sermons to
Women; —for more reasons than the
editor will allow me place to exploit,
but having recently been beguiled into
a sermon to Women, who are like
angels, both good and bad, —It is
only fair that I should follow it with
a sermon to men who are mostly bad;
This sermon will be preached at Bap
tist church Sunday night, 26th and
all are invited,, both men and women,
to hear it,

past struggles of our nations and
how that we have at all times stood

us all about the cause of the present
war. He also explained to us the
origin and history of the Red Cross
and its great work. On the whole
■’it was a masterful effort and won for
the Red Cross many new converts
because we organized with 27 mem
