WILL PREACH ON THE
“SIGNS OF THE TIMES.”
On Sunday evening at the First Bap
tist church, Rev. A. D. Kendrick an
nounces that he will preach on the
“Signs of the Times,” the message be
ing an interpretation of Bible prophecy
applied to the present world crisis
hrough which the nations are passing.
The pastor believes there are many
things now transpiring which point to
the early second coming of Christ. He
has chosen a theme which is prominent
in the minds of the people, and no
doubt, will have a large congregation
to hear the message.
REV. KENDRICK BEGINS
A SERIES OF SERMONS
Rev. Alexis D. Kendrick begins a
series of sermons this morning at 11
o’clock on “The Lord’s Prayer,” and
will continue some each Sunday morn
ing for several weeks. These mes
sages will be an interpretation of
this prayer as applied to present day
conditions, and will no doubt prove
one of the most interesting and help
ful series of sermons preached in
our city for some time.
The sermon this morning will be
on the first clause of the prayer:
“Our Father.” In view of the world
crisis now on us. the Bible is being
studied with the view of finding its
application to the present day condi
tions, and the pastors sermon’s each
Sunday for some time, at both hours,
will throw much light on this method
o’ interpretation.

GEORGIA CATHOLICS TO
SUPPORT NATION IN WAR
AUGUSTA, Ga., April 28.—Bishop B
J. Keiley has sent for reading at all
services in the Catholic churches of
Georgia a strong appeal to all mem
tars of the Roman Catholic church to
rally around the flag and support Pres
ident Wilson in every way. “We are, ’
he says, “bound in conscience to sup
port the president in the duty placed
upon his shoulders by congress.” The
bishop’s letter reads in part:
“The congress of the United States
lias declared that a state of war exists
between this republic and the empire
of Germany, or, probably more cor
rectly, the emperor of Germany, for
wc have no quarrel with the people of
that empire.
“There may be some who will pre
tend to find it strange that one who
claims to represent the Prince of Peace
should be found advising a hearty sup
port of war. War is a dreadful thing
and hence whoever is responsible for
the beginning of the dreadful world
war which has devastited Europe and
now has involved our own republic,
has a frightful reckoning awaiting
when he stands before the judgment
seat of a just God. But there are times
when war becomes a necessity, when
war is forced upon a people; when
their just rights have been invaded;
when honor and safety demand security
and there is no other means than war
to obtain it.
“There is no room for doubt in the
mind of any loyal citizen of this re
public that the war on which we have
entered is on our part most just.
“The president of the United States
has carried patience to what many
thought was an undue limit in his hon
est endeavor to keep the United States
out of this war. But the limit has
been reached and passed. Now we are
at war. Our duty is plain. We are
bound in conscience to support the
president in the duty placed upon his
. shoulders by congress. There is no
time now to speak of Mr. W’ilson s con
duct in Mexico, or elsewhere. He is
our president; we are in a war which
is a just one; we must make it a suc
cessful war for American arms; we
must one and all give him all the sup
port we can. AU can help, some with
their right arm in the field, others by
making sacrifices for the cause.”
WOMEN AND CHILDREN IN
FIELDS AROUND ST. LOUIS j
I ST. LOUIS, April 28.—1 n the great
'farming districts in Southern Illinois
and Eastern Missouri and Arkansas to-
Iday they are preparing to
their share in filling Uncle Sam’s mar
ket basket. In practically every sec
tion around St. Louis there is increas
ed acreage. Women and children are
working in the fields to help relieve the
labor shortage.
1 In the larger cities back yards us
ually given over to flower cultivation,
this year will yield lettuce, cabbage,
radishes, and other truck. This back
! yard” gardening, stimulated through
newspaper and magazine campaigns,
has released many acres of farm lands
that have been previously given over
to truck garden cultivation. The home
chicken raising industry also has been
installed in many residence lots.
In the farming regions an increase
in poultry cultivation was also notice
able.

'KflflfiSftS RALLIES TO
HELP IN FOODSTUFF
TOPEKA, Kansas, April 28.- Kansas
—that block of the United States which
Easterners have declared could not be
aroused—is answering today Governor
Copper’s “Call for Crops.” with which
to feed tiie United States and her Al
.lies.
I A commission has been appointed to
help with the work and a thorough
and vigorous campaign will be made at
once to cultivate every waste place in
i the state.
The campuses of the three big state
I schools at Manhattan, Emporia, and
| Lawrence will be turned into potato
I fields. The Kansas State Agricultural
t College and the Department of Agricul
; ture have “enlisted” in the work which
i promises “more crops grown in Kansas
; than any previous year.”
I Tiie banker who refuses to finance
i the seeding and cultivating of Kansas
, fields “as liberal as prudence will
allow” will be branded by the Govern
or as a “slacker,” according to a letter
I to the bankers of the state urging their
I co-operation.
| “The time is short and the need is
j urgent," the* appeal to the bankers
I stated. “Encourage the utilization of
I vacant land in town and country and
(the farmers to increase their crofti
| acreage as much as possible without
i sacrificing the grass lands required
I for stock.”
| In a message to the people of the
I state, Governor Capper declared, “It’s
! the biggest part Kansas can play in
I the war, and the state must not fall
! down on the job. Kansas must furn-
I ish its proportion of men at the front
i and there must not be a single shirker
i in the state for the work at home- The
I fellow who goes to the front must not
! be the only one to fight for his coun
■ try.”

! T
? j
Happy, bright, alert—vigorous and
vivacious—a good clear skin; a nat
ural. rosy complexion and freedom
from illness are assured only by
clean, healthy blood. If only every
woman and likewise every man could
realize the wonders of the morning
inside bath, what a gratifying change
would take place.
Instead of the thousands of sickly,
anaemic-looking men, women and
girls with pasty or muddy complex
ions; instead of the multitudes of
“nerve wrecks,” “rundowns,” “brain
fags” and pessimists we should see a
virile, optimistic throng of rosy
cheeked people everywhere.
An inside bath is had by drinking,
each morning before breakfast, a
glass of real hot water with a tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in it
to wash from the stomach, liver, kid
neys and ten yards of bowels the pre
vious day’s indigestible waste, sour
fermentations and poisons, thus
cleansing, sweetening and freshening
the entire alimentary canal before
putting more food into the stomach.
Those subject to sick headache, bil
licusness, nasty breath, rheumatism,
colds; and particularly those who have
a pallid, sallow complexion and who
are constipated very often, are urged
to obtain a quarter pound of limestone
phosphate at the drug store which
will cost but a trifle but is sufficient
to demonstrate the quick and remark
able change in both health and ap
pearance awaiting those who practice
irternal sanitation. We must remem
ber that inside cleanliness is more im
portant than outside, because the
i skin does not absorb impurities to
contaminate the blood, while the pores
in the thirty feet of bowels do. advt
