Hlhgeley, 1926 Orring ton avenue, Bvanston, Is at the Moth Ottist Book Concern, New York^-puttlng f finishing touches on a new edition "Toe Retired Minister." The first edition la sold out and Dr. Hingeely Is incorporating a large amount of new and Intensely Interesting matter hi the new edition, including a remarkable article by Professor Solon C. Bronaon of Evanston. | In "The Veteran Preacher." official Sir of the Board of Conference mants, edited by Rev. John T. bner Smith, 1419 Grove Btrcet, Dr. Hingeley has written a graphic, dls- criptlon of "A Big Edition" and "The Panama-Pacific Exposition." In this Issue, which Is on the press and will bo made public next week, Dr. Hinge- ley writes: A Big Edition. We have edited three editions of the Journal of the general conference, with about fifteen hundred pagea in each. In fact, the number of pages was In excess of the number of cop- las published. Still it Is a great book of large historic value. We have been . also one of the editors of three edi- tions of the Disciple, of which more than one hundred thousand copies have' been sold. When we published "The Retired Minister," we sought export advice of the Book Concern au- thorities; and there are no more ex- pert book men anywhere, either In the managing sales department, offices, or printing department. It has been a delight to work with them. These men urged caution as to the number of copies to be printed, and called at- tention to the fact that authors were often more enamored of their pet books than the purchasers. But we broke over bounds and printed three thousand copies, which have disap- peared like the spring snow; and no wonder, since the leaders In this >vemont in all denominations urge ie purchase of "The Retired Minis- try preachers and lay men For itance, a Baptist layman bought sev- ity copies to give to leading Baptist lymon and ministers; a Methodist bought one hundred copies id placed them where they would, do Have To Stick Cio£ at Home. (Continued from Page 1.) e most good; and in one annual con- ference campaign more than two hun- dred copies wore sold. . According to the last report of the blishlng agents of the general con- only Ave titles sold more cop- than our first edition; and no >ks sold asjnany as our nrst and ond edition!. The Panama Exposition. We were too tired and too c-/ with the church pension congivjs to do anything like justice to the great exposition, but one thing ministered greatly to our pleasure. It was the way In which the beautiful buildings ware Illuminated. No lights glared In your eyes, but, by a system of bid- den and Indirect illumination, every piece of statuary stood out at night in all Its beauty. We walked through corridors, Illuminated by unseen lights, In which the beautifully traced decora- tions stood out like woven fabrics. As wo looked at the statues of the priest and of the preacher on either side of the great entrance, we could not but ik of the ploneerB of our own h, self-effaced and out of view y, but "by their light we see the light" Never was there an exi>oeitiou ihnt gave such place to spiritual realities and especially to the great influences which center in the early priest and preacher who walked with and taught the pioneers. Never were so many great Inspirational causes gl»en & hearing; and never were words spok- out more plainly by those In power management as to the real, spir- and moral purpose which over- owed everything else at the great exposition. Our New Officw. We are migrating. Our new p«st office address will be 820 Garland building, Chicago. This beautiful bSlff'fg la located at the corner of Wabash avenue and Washington street end Is in the center of the city, within one block of the lake front.

"We are more than lucky to get this house, and we certainly are thankful, and the only thing missing Is not to have my boys. We have a good cook who gives us some of the home things. We still cling to some of the extras In spite of the prices. We got today ten kilos of lard at 96 a kilo. Butter is cheaper, at 93 a pound. Po- tatoes are hard to get for 93 a kilo. We don't buy them. We have plenty of rice, which we paid 91 a pound for a few months ago. Now It Is worth 96. We get tired of hearing about conditions and the rise in 'prices of food, but there Is nothing else to talk about. I will write more when mails are sure."

BOAT TIPS OVER; MEN ARE RESCUED Sergeant Moberg and Crew Try Out Craft in a Heavy Sea. Three men In a boat and the boat tipped over. The three mm In this boat were Sergeant Enoch Moberg, of the Bvanston police department, Msfhew Rogers and Alexander Mat- son. The boat belongs to Dr. M. B. Craven, an* to an old Ufa saving craft, refitted with a sail and an engine. Sergeant Moberg had been doing soma work on the boat yesterday and decided to try it out, despite the heavy sea, the waves being agitated to a dangerous degree by a northeast wind. Skipper Moberg and first and eecond mates Rogers and Mateon put out to sea. leaving admiring friends on the beach at Lincoln street. When a quarter of a mils off shore the boat tipped over. Moberg and Rogers are good swimmers, but Matson is not so sturdy in a heavy sea The men therefore clung to tho overturned craft and waited for help. Christ Wagner, who has a house up near the Wllmette harbor of. the sani- tary canal, saw the three men. He rowed out to them In a boat and brought them ashore. The Wagner boat was followed by Joseph Koch who had a. power boat and be towed Craven's water-logged craft Into the harbor. Tho United States coast guard: went to the rescue, but arrived after Wagner had rendered efficient aid. The sea was too choppy to bring the lite b0iiU»ck lo the-ataUon, ao it was tied up at the canal harbor. Dr. Craven says that he lost about 9100 worth of fittings off his boat, but he doesn't cam so much about that, for he is (lad the men were rescued. Wb«u (he Yellowstone ium^ t..4 camp taen shipped the*.' season's "help" to the park early In June to bo ready for the rush of visitors, the spe- cial train that carried them afforded plenty of fun for the eltles at which it stopped en route. It was a merry crowd that filled the fifteen Pullmans, one that knew how to entertain Itself exceedingly well. "The employes have their own lexicon of descriptions," says the Salt Lake City News, describ- ing the scene at the station. 'The terms used to designate different classes of help are aa follows: 8av> agesâ€"all of the help In a &«aeric sense; Heaversâ€"dining-room help; Wranglersâ€"horse herders; Barn dogs â€"help used about the corrals; Swad- dlesâ€"soldisrs in the park; Dudesâ€"all tourists; Mulligan Dumpâ€"where the drivers sat The aesthetic designation of Biscuit shooters la applied to the hotel waitcrB." The regular hotel help is otrtctly professional, but the camp help large-, ly amateur. The Wyllo Camping Co. alone received 6,000 applications fo? 950 places, many of the applicants be- ing school teachers, college students, and high school pupils of both sexes.

What constitutes a perfect husband? A Chicago paper has offered a 126 prise/ for the best letter received on this subject. Wllmette should be In- terested In this subject, as It ,1s some* thing every one wants to know, espe- cially the women. Josephine H. Lawrence, superin- tendent of the Social Service depart- ment of the Cook County .court, and holder of the record for uniting famil- ies, having brought together aa many as sixty-five in one month, haa com* 1.1 led t en commandments for the per- fect husband. Mr. Wllmette man, here Is your chance. Look.them over and see If you come up to ber standard. Here they are: Ten Essentials. 1. Thou shalt not lie, no matter how much circumstances are against thee. This Is the first and greatest commandment for connubial bliss. 2. Thou shall not nag. 3. Thou shalt be a good worker. 4. Thou shalt not get intoxicated, 5. Thou shalt not make a king of thyself. 6. Thou snalt not make a graven Image of thy wife, but a companion. 7. Thou shalt have at least one night a week "out." 8. Thou must love children. 9. Thou sbalt not flirt with other women. *~ x 10. Thou shalt not be over-suspi- cious of thy wife. "If these ten commandments were followed," says the author, "I believe the/ the average married persons could remain like the two of Butler's poem: •"Still amorous, and fond, and billing. Like Philip and Mary on a shilling.'" Pew Perfect Men. There have been a few perfect men since the Creation. Apollo was, but be was anything but a family man. In Northwestern university a perfect man was found recentlyâ€"but he was like Apollo, perfect in chest and waistâ€" and he became an attraction in a fashion show. The world didn't hear I offense' at It The explanation molll so much about the humble John Albert fled her t0 80flle extent Schultz of Aurora, whose two land- ladles declared he was a perfect man. But even Schultz couldn't get along with his wife- Robert Browning Is about the only perfect husband history has told about. And he wrote poetry all the timeâ€"and so did his wife. Simple, ien't it? But what about tt.u si cat re«i ut ii»c world? What can be tho qualities that make a perfect husbund? Maybe it's u slm pie question. It was for Mr*. Martha Stevens wl Brooklyn. N. Y.

A Wllmette housewife whose sym- pathies are with the Allies bought a loaf of bread, the other* dayr -which contained a German flag. ShQ did not like the "Kultur" kind of bread and felt Indignant that the baker, who by the way has a German name, should force the flag of the country which she dislikes, on his customers. She made up her mind to stop using that brand of bread, and then she found a slip of paper with the loaf, which explained that the baking com- pany offered a prize for the best col- lection of flags turned into their local dealer. This German flag proved to be one of the series, but arriving as It did on the day the Arabic was tor- pedoed, tht> Allies sympathizer took CHILDREN SUFFER MORE. Off all those who suffer by the war none make a mora immediate appeal to the sympathies than the little chil- dren left alone In the world. The com- mittee Franco-American for the pro* taction off the children of the frontier have already done noble work, under the direction of Mrs. Bliss, wife of the secretary off the American embas ay at Paris, and Mr. A. F. Jaccacl, the artist-author, whose "On the Trail of Don Quixote" Is well remembered. The treasursr Is Frederlo R. Cou- dert, and subscriptions may be sent to his address. 2 Rector street; New York City. "One hundred and twenty-five chil- dren, little ones like those who were rescued from the region of Belfort, have been aaved from parts of Alsace, recently reconquered by French troops, Tpres, and other Flemish towns devastated by months of artil- lery fire. Shelter has been found for them in convents and institutions that are providing a roof but are so sadly Impoverished that the children must go unfed unless food can be secured through others. The little ones are living on fifteen cents a day." VICTORIA THEATRE. The recent flood of "Punch" drama has had a tendency to establish our modern woman in the public mind as a creature lrreconclalable with those whom we reverently call "Mother;" as a generation of feminine lrrespon- slbles, with not one attribute of their noble forbears; without one instinct of original womanhood.
