The Alliance district conference
held In Hemlngford Tuesday and
Wednesday was perhaps the most
successful and helpful one ever held
In the district. The adresses and
discussions were practical and full
of inspiration. The district superin
tendent reported over - six hundred
additions to the churches since last
September. The conference closed
with an evangelistic service Wednes
day night in which the call was re
sponded to by about forty young
people. Many people will remem
ber the occasion as the most won
derful of the kind they have ever
seen.
Services as follows for next Sun
day: 11 a. in., holy commun'on; 3
p. m., there is to be a good fellow
ship service for men only. This has
been suggested by some of our 1 Ay
men. The purpose Is for an hour
of good fellowship, and the organi
zation of the men for the different
kinds of service of the church. All

"PECK'S BAD BOY" THE
ATTRACTION MONDAY
The old comedy classic, the delight
of the kids and the favorite of most
of the grown-ups, will be next Mon
day's attraction at the Imperial the
ater. It will be a one-day engage
ment only, and special low prices
will be in effect.
"Peck's Bad Boy" Is the one play
that is left us that has nothing in It
but fun. There are no clinging love
scenes, no faithless, wives, no brutal
husbands, no tragic situations that
go to make up the lure of the
movies. Instead there are the fun
ny pranks of the Peck boy, the Dutch
grocer and the gang. It'll be a play
that every kid in town will want to
see and that the older people will
hate to miss.
"Peck's Bad Boy" has improved
with age. An added attraction Is a
gorgeous chorus with musical voices
and dancing ability. There are a
number of other attractions. It will
be some ehow, and our advice is to
make your reservations early.
The ladies of the Maccabee lodge
will hold a food and apron sale from

ACADEMY STUDENTS
ritESEXT PROGRAM
The students of St. Agnes academy
presented an interesting program at
the Imperial theater to a full house"
Wednesday evening. The entertain
ment was in two parts, the first con
sisting of various drills and songs,
and the latter of a short colonial
drama In four scenes, entitled, "Lost
and Found." The entire program
was pleasing and each number was
liberally applauded.
People who love humanity and
have faith in its progress toward
higher and better things, hoped that
the horrors of war would eliminate
a lot of foolishness and greed from
the hearts of men. But the outcome
to date Is disappointing. Instead of
the dawn of a new era of brother
hood among men and nations we be
hold a scramble among nations for
territory, and among the war profit
eers, a riot' of profligate spending.

THE secret of "getting your money's
worth" lies in the elimination of buying
mistakes. The woman who understands her
Cclf and her corset problem doubles her
available capital by never buying the wrong
corset.
And the surest way to always buy the right
corset is to place yourself in the hands of a
competent corsetiere who will make the
solving of your problem a matter of personal
pride.
If you are considering the purchase of a new
corset let us suggest the
GOSSARD
Front
Lot in t
CORSET
There is no figure, however unusual or diffi
cult to fit, but can be successfully fitted by
our expert corsetieres in these original front
lacing corsets. We guarantee your entire
satisfaction.

modity in the world and
that Just recently It has
caught up with Itself,
thus enabling the many
craftsmen in this field to
also feel some of the
thrills of Americaniza
tion 7" remarked a keen
student of industrial con
ditions, a visitor at our
