Dr. Ijoveland's sermon was on "The Coming- of the Sons of God." He held that nature Is Inseparably linked with man kind; If man Is degraded, nature Is de graded; every flower that blooms feels the Mow that strikes down a man. and every bird that pings and every beast of the forest feela the downfall of a. race and also feels the uplift of a race.

EMAM'irATIOX OF PORTO RICO Light Breaks in Through Window of American Integration. A plea for the interest In the work of the missions 111 Porto Rico waa made at Hanseom Park Methodist church yester day owning by Rev. Benjamin 8. Hayr wood, who is at the head of the Methodist mlcston work In the island. Dr. Haywood Is a former Ncbraskan and at one time was in educational work In the western part of the state. Since entering the min istry his procress has been rapid. He was at one lime a presiding elder In Mexico and was transferred from there to Porto , Rico. "For too years," he n..d. "Spain and the Roman church had absolute sway In Porto Rico, and they fed the people upon the huiks. They taught the Bible was a dan gerous boo for the people to have. Nine years ago we broke the bonds and we gave the Bible to the people. After 400 years of rule Spain turned over to the United States Just one public school. Today there are 1.200 teachers in the public schools of the Island and over every school house floats ths American flag. Today we have 126 Methodist congregations organized. But In spite of this advance almost 300,000 children of school age cannot gain admlskion to the public schools. The needs of the people are so great we csnnot keep up with them. Young boys havs come to me per sonally and begged for a chance to learn to read and write, but I was unable to grant the plea because we did not have the funds." Dr. Haywood displayed pieces of fancy and needlework done by young girls, and showing grfat latent power, which he de clared would only have to be developed In urdor to make the Porto' Rlcans a prosper ous people, gome of the incidents he re lated were aniuslnc Not Jong ago he per formed th marriage ceremony for a grandfather, son and grandson at the same time. .

Newman Hall Rurdlck, D. D.. In Ills sermon at the Second Presbyterian church yesterdsy morning. Dr. Rurdlck went bat k Into Biblical his tory and referred lo the children of Israel when they were In captivity at Babylon and when Got said to . them, "I will for this be Inquired," that of making Israel a gieat nation. 'UmJ wanted Israel to pray for those things It would have and He today wants his children to pray," said the minister. "While It Is In God's plan to bring atiout great things it also is In Hi plan that the people should pray for those things. God would have everyone who has ex pressed allegiance to Him pray for a matti fentatlon of the Holy Spirit. There Is plenty of evidence In the Bible and even In our own time He answers prayers for a revival. What 'we mean by a revival Is a manifestation f the Holy Spirit, which we do not see In Omaha. today. Nothing would more glorify Omaha -today tban a rallying of those who have professed the nsme of Christ. We have encouragement for this revival because Christ died for a revival of the world and that the world mlghf be brought to God. "If we neglect prayer God will hold us responsible. Now is the time for prayer end now is the time for revival. God Is always willing and ready to answer. To talk of when God gets ready and thus shirking responsibility Is sinful. God Is long-suffering snd not willing that any one should perish. He will save unto- the utter most all who come unto Him. God de mands absolute surrender and we make a serious mistake to plsoe conditions on that surrender. Now Is the time for all the people of Omaha lo pray -for a great re- Ival." . . . Y. M. C. A.

SPEED NOT HIGHEST DESIRE Fast Trains less Hemauded Than ntsvlftai (iff W9 lliR) son of Illinois Control. "I am of the opinion that what the pub lic relishes more than fast time is trains being on time," Passenger Traffic Mansgsr Hanson of the Illinois Central mad said In discussing the speed crsae. "Adherence to schedules Is the thing to be aimed at." he continued. "American strenuosity has Influenced the rallrosds to reduce the run ning time of trslns to a point that In many Instances Is Inconsistent with con servative and careful management. "A train keyed to Its best has no chance to make up time lost on account of the delays Incident to a trip of even a couple of hundred miles, consequently time lost is seldom regained. During the last few yesrs there has been a feeling on the part of many railroad men that they must put fst schedules on time cards even if they cannot adhere to them. If a road Is not in physical condition to make forty miles an hour it would be more to Its advantage to make thirty-five mllea an hour, as It finally becomes known that such a road Is attempting the Impossible and the public acts accordingly. The average passenger would prefer to use a trsln of ordinary speed with the assurance It will srrlve at Its destination on time. The 'Flyer' muy look nice on a colored folder, hut when the passenger comes to understand that the 'Flyer' flies with one wing broken he begins to figure ori the road that does not promise so much, 'but gets there regu larly. "To Illustrate: Our1 read ha been brought to such a satisfactory physical condition that we could operate a train between Chicago and New Orleans In eighteen hours. Rut what, would be gained? We would be doing our utmost under favor able conditions, if conditions were un favorable we might be late, which would cause dissatisfaction.. Under our present schedule, a reasonable one for 923 miles, we make the time and our patrons know Just whst to expect. Ths policy. I be lieve, will win in the long run and the public will approve it." . BLIND TOM. FREEMAN DEAD Sightless Musician Dies nt County Hospital After Illness of lome l.ength.
