Hurry Mother ! Even a fretful, peevish

open the bowels. A teaspoonful today
may prevent a sick child tomorrow.
Ask your druggist for genuine "Cali

for babies and children of all ages
printed on bottle. Mother I You must
?ay "California" or you rany get an
Imitation flg syrup.
Nearly every woman finds n be

Don't Let That Cold
Turn Into "Flu"
Rab on Good Old Matlmrolm
That cold may turn into "Flu,"
Grippe or, even worse, Pneumonia,
unless you take care of it at once.
Rub good old Musterole on the con
gested parts and see how quickly it
bring* relief.
Colds are merely congestion. Mus
terole. made from pure oil of mustard,
camphor, menthol and other simple
ingredients, is a counter-irritant which
stimulates circulation and helps break
up the cold.
As effective as the messy old m

THREE MEN LEAD IN
MEMBERSHIP CONTEST
During 1023 honors for securinj
membera for the American Legion Wer?
about evenly divided between thre<
men. These, John A. Smith of Sious
City, la., a member of the Monahac
poet ; Hans Hunsdorf, a disabled man
now patient in a Minnesota hospital |
and John Kass of Detroit, led al!
others in securing applications.
Smith obtained his members In t
ruther unique manner. He worked out
a scheme known as the "Cudahy plan"
by means of which he caused the big
lndustrlul firms of Sioux City to pay
up the dues for ex-service employees,
utilizing a "checkoff" for repayment.
His record approximated nearly one
member for each working day of the
year.
. Hunsdorf obtained his members by
personal contact, particularly In Vet
erans' Bureau hospitals, and wherever
veterans gathered and rolled his record
up to nearly 250.
Kass, a member of the Charles A.
Learned post In Detroit, made an
earnest campaign for his applicants,
and Is said to have Interviewed more
ex-ssrvlce men than either of the
other two "champs." His record ap
proximated that of Hunsdorf. But to
do this, he faced severe competition
from one Theodore Kolbe, now depart
ment adjutant of the Legion In Mich
igan. Kolbe's record was near enough
to that of Kass that It took a board of
judges to determine the standing of
the two.
Kass has already made a start
toward a 1924 record. On February
29 ho hnd collected dues and applica
tions from (ft veterans. His method
John Kass.
&f enrolling the veterans as LtVlon
naires Is simple but ?tfflclent. "I ask
tbem," he snys. Kass' accomplishment
waa completed within 18 days, the du
ration of the post membership drive.
In addition he added members to other
Wnyne county posts.
Ills approach Is Hitch the Legion
officials in Michigan believe that he
must use more salesmanship than do
either Smith or Hunsdorf. Smith's
plan for reaching th i? industrial con
cerns Is sort of an tdvantage, while
Hunsdorf gets men Who are dally en
Joying benefits of the Legion, they
argue. And Kass gets out and lands
the members by hard work, according
to their idea.
The three have on it triangular race
for membership honors this year. The
Learned posters kave challenged
Omaha post for the greatest mem
bership during- 1024, a record here
tofore held by the N'lbrnskans. Kass
Is one of the main reliances of the
Detrolters In bringing this honor to
his city.
Hunsdorf Is avowml to better his
record by nt least a hundred, nnd
while the men of Monahan post In
Sioux City nre dependent on Smith
to handle tho recruiting alone, It Is
safe to say that his re :ord will approx
imate that of 1023.
The "Mnn from Michigan" has al
ready been proclaimed champion of th?
Wayno county couinrll membership
campaign, and hlR ac>nmpllshment re
quiring less than thi?e weeks would
apparently put him Into the national
championship class w tth good chanres
In the finnl outcome.
Left Part of Ea'.ate
to American Legion
One-fourth of the estate of a dis
abled World war veteran who died In
Kansas City, Mo., win Inherited b^
the American lotion. The veteran,
Rarl Mason of Indlavupolls, provided
for the bequest In his will, which
named the head of the Iseglon dis
trict hospitalization committee as exe
cutor. The estate amounted td ap
proximately 1800.
The will recites tllst "every con
sideration and kindness" had been
shown to Mason by Ijie legion, and
that he made the gtfv as a token of
gratitude, and to aarlst In providing
aid for other disabled reterans. Mason
went to Kansas City several months
ago broken In h^slth and without em

IC-? The Conflict between Jesebel and
li-iljah. I
YOUNO PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP
IC How Elijah Won the Victory.
I. Elijah's Message to Ahab (vv.
17-18). ;
When Jezebel become the wife of
King Ahnb, she waged a savage war
faro against God's prophets, killing nil
she eoold find, thus seeking to abolish
the true religion and $et up idolatry
Instead. Elijah suddenly appeared, an
nouncing the suspension of moisture
(I Kings 17 :1) as a Judgment upon
the people for their Idolatry. He
sounded three striking notes In his
message :
(1) "As the Lord God of Israel llv
cth' He knew that he represented
the living God, therefore did not fear.
(2) "Before whom I stand" ? Be
cause Elijah stood before God, he
could stand before Ahab.
(8) "There Bhall not be dew nor rain
these years, but according to my word."
Drought was the punishment for
idolatry (Deut. 11:10, 17).
II. A Challenge to Baal Worship
(1 Kings 18:17-40).
As soon as Elijah had delivered his
message concerning the drought, he
retired from the king's sight, while j
the penalty of the king's sins should
be visited upon the land.
1. Elijah Shows Himself to Ahab
(vv. 17, 18).
(1) Ahab's question (v. 17). His
aim in tills question was no doubt to
intimidate Elijah, to awe him into
submission. The devil goes about as
a roaring lion (I Wet. 5:8).
(2) Elijah's answer (v. 18). He
denied the charge a?d boldly declared
that the calamity wtolch had befallen
the nation was caused by the Idolatry
of Ahab and Ms family.
2. The Bold Challenge (vv. 19-24). '
(1) The people assemble (vv. 19, j
20). At the urgent request of Elijah
the king convened the people.
(2) The ringing carl to decision (vv.
.21-24).
a. The question asked (v. 21). Many
of the people had not wholly forsaken
Qod. They attempted to worship both
God and Baal.
b. The silence of the people (v. 21).
This may have been because of fear of
the king , or Ignorance, for many were
of the opinion that to be religious was !
the only thing necessary, irrespective
of ^he being worshiped.
c. The method of decision (vv. 22
24). Two sacrifices were to be pro
vided, one to be .offered to Baal, the
other to God. The one who answered
by fire wag to bo the God.
a The Test Applied (vv. 25-39).
(1) Offering by the prophets of
Baal (vv. 2G-29). Elijah gave the
prophets of Baal the first opportunity
to prove? to the people as to whether
Baal was a real god.
(2) The offering by Elijah (vv. 30
39). #
a. People Invited near (v. 30).
There aro no secrets In God's wor
ship.
b. The altar repaired (vv. 30-32).
Elijah took twelve stones represent
ing the united naflon.
c. The offering on the altar (vv.
88-35). After the bullock was ln ploce
ho hod four barrels of water three
times emptied upon the sacrifice and
the wood so as to fill the trench obout
the altar.
d. Elijah's prayer (vv. 30, 37).
This \yas a model prayer.
(a) It was based upon covenants
(f. 80). All real prayer rests upon
covenant relationships.
(b) Its object was God's exaltation
(v. 30). Elijah was Jealous for God's
glory, but the only thing that he asked
for himself was to be known as God's
servant.
(c) It was for the salvation of the
people (v. 37). His heart yearned
after Israel. He wanted them to come
to know God.
e. The result (vv. 38, 39).
(a) The fire of the Lord fell and
consumed, not only the sacrifice, but
the wood, stones and dust, even lick
ing up the water In the trenches.
(b) The people fell on their faces
and confessed that the Lord was ?he
God.
4. The Execution of Baal's I'rophots
(?. 40). Israel's government was a
theocracy. ? Ood was theft- King. Idol
atry was treason agalnfct the King.
Loyalty to Hriat *
No Christian ought to be afraid to
take his religion qjtf where tliere Ik
none. . All the same It Is easier to be
loyal to Jesus when we' keep with
Jesus* other friends.? Chttitidfi Cjtn'o
