LECTURE
The illustrated lecture on South .\r.ierica delivered in St. John's Lutheran church on Thursday even¬ ing by Rev. C. L. Fry, D. D., of Phil¬ adelphia, was both interesting and instructive.
About one hundred pictures were used, many ot them beautifully col¬ ored. There are wonderful possibil¬ ities in South America for the Pro¬ testant church. The gates of this country were closed to all Protes- ta.nts to the time of the late war. Since then a more liberal policy pre¬ vails and Protestiint activities are no biiiL'cr restricted.

Three dwellings and a baker shop were totally destroyed at Fogelsville by dames early Friday morning. The tire was discovered at 2 o'clock and it was not until after 5 that the blaze was pronounced under control. The buildings burnei., all ot which were 111 trame, were those of John Heffiie- fiiiger, shop and house; the house oc¬ cupied by .\mbrose .Mohr, and one occupied by George Wagner and faniily. The loss is estimated at $15,000, partially insured.
The flames originated in the bak¬ ery shop of Hefflefinger from an overheated .stove.
The local fire company with the assistance of out of town companies gave valient services and with super¬ human efforts were unable to save the buildings, but were however, able to keep the flames from spread¬ ing further.
The Heffelfinger family was in bed at the time and were forced to l^ee in their night clothes. The Wagner family fortunately saved some of their furniture. Most of the furni¬ ture and belongings of the Mohrs was consumed by the flames. The i:!ifortunate families were taken in and cared tor by the neighbors. .-\iubrose Mohr is a brother of our townsman. John .Mohr, and is known liy a number'of friends here, who ex¬ tend their sympathies to Mr. Mohr and his family.

Nourishment
ENTERTAINMENT AT NAZARETH HALL
On Tuesday Evening, Mar. 7
—Under the Auspices ut
Wayside Gatherers
The unemployed situation, which hus grown acute in the Borough of Stockertown, has caused considera¬ ble suffering, and children especially, have suffered from the pinch of pov¬ erty in families where the bread winners are out of employment.
In order that these children might not go without sufficient nourishing food, they are given a warm noon meal at the school house, under the direction of the teachers, Wilbur J. Uolling. principal, Mrs, Helen Sandt Lehr and .Mrs. Lizzie Little.
The dinners are prepared by var¬ ious charitably inclined women of the town, and are taken to the school at noon. From twelve to fifteen cliil- tlren are fed every noon at a large table which has been set up so that all of them can be served at the same time, and the meals are great¬ ly enjoyed by the children, A no¬ ticeable improvement in their school vork is apparent as the result ot Iiroper feeding, and that which start¬ ed as an experiment, has proven of great practical value in the educa¬ tional work of the schools ot the town.
The meals consist ot rice soup, pepper pot, baked beans, milk, pota¬ toes, soup, boiled cabbage and pota¬ toes, boiled beans and potatoes, fried eggs, jelly, canned truit, bread and buns.
