Mr. Andrcss traced the wan derings of the Pilgrims from England to Holland, and from there to America. The Pilgrims, he said, were the origina tors of the Congregational sect. "Tho Pilgrims left England to go where they might worship as they wished," Rev. Mr. Andreas said In part. "From England they went to Holland, and from there to America. One of the first things they " did upon landing in America was to educate their children In their relig ious way. "Statistics show that Juvenile crime has advanced at the astonishing rate of two, and one-half times greater than' the pro portional Increase In population. Outside teaching and listening to others Is re sponsible for this increase. In the old days the father of the family taught the children obedience, and the scripture. In the old days the children received en lightenment from the Bible. Too much Is left to others these days. Need Morn Grace. "The present-day minister needs not less Greek, but more grace; not less socio- logy, but more spiritual discernment; not less philosophy, but more faith in the gospel; not less Hebrew and Sanserif, but n better working knowledge of the Eng- ltsli Bible; not less polish In the pulpit, but" mora eloquence In tho closet- What matters It that a minister is able to read the Bible In five languages If he cannot assist some one In one single language? "Tho Pilgrim spirit Is just as strong today as It ever was. We do not stek to trample on the rights of others. The Ba)pon muat De ftbo,Uhe(, we mak this a nation whoso God Is the Lord from Plymouth Rock to the Golden pate.' Our iui iwiaj is o live os our vQI- ,c?no6 Rnd t0 m others see the true light ".When our conscience .has. ceased to be its, strong vtower and duty and Its wall of: strength) our national structures will fait kh'd cfumble !n-'the dust,, the-story of the Pilgrim Will be a,, forgotten legend, and- the restless sea, as It sobs and moans against the New England coast, will sound the idlrge of hope departed, -vision lost, faith forsaken, glory faded," The conference Is attended by ministers" rrom all parts of Nebraska. The con ventlon was begun Friday. It concludes uiuuuuj morning. xne cnurch was crowded to capacity. The devotional hour was led by Rev. J. J. "Parker of Geneva.

In my opinion, i( people would be particular what they buy and where they buy, the. need for special lawa to protect them would soon disappear.
