Interesting missionary material for the exhibit the world's Sunday .school convention has been sent in by the Ebenezer Mennonite Sunday School Bethlehem, and will be for¬ warded to the committee having this in charge. It Is hoped that other Sunday Schools may send what they have found eflectlve. and which may I prove helpful to Sunday SchooU in other parts of tlie worid. The World's Convention wiil be held in Rio de Janeiro. Brazil, next month. The dates are July 23-31. This con¬ vention will mean much to evangeli¬ cal Christianity in all of So. America as well as to the delegates who will participate from other nations. At the tenth World's Convention held in Los Angeles. July 1928, more than 8000 delegates were in attendance from 51 countries. The value of the j .spiritual contribution that will be I made to the work in So. America is incalculable.

The Commission warns the public against paying money for "coaching" courses in preparation for Federal civil-service examinations.
Schools which sell such courses under present conditions accept money under false pretenses. A pur¬ veyor of civil service courses Is now under indictments in Iowa for false representation. It is expected that other such cases of prosecution will follow.

Practically every city and borough m tlie tour counties, namely. Car¬ bon. Lehigh, Monroe and Northam¬ pton was represented by delegates at the .ses.sions. Early Friday morning the delegates,
are being made in the Federal civil .service.    Vacancies which  must be | filled  are  fliled  by the  transfer of ] those in the service or the reinstate¬ ment of those who have been in th:' service, wherever practicable.
It is seldom nece.s.sary to announce an examinaton. In most cases reg¬ isters of eligibles exist as a result of examinations held during the past year. When an examination is an¬ nounced, the applicants are usually hundreds of times in excess of the need.
Money paid for civil service coach¬ ing courses at this time might almost a.s well be thrown to the four winds.

LEIIir.li VALLEV EGO  PKO- l)l( EllS  A'iSOfHTIOV TO MEET AT ALLENTOWN
Harrisburg, June 23.— (Special to the Nazareth Itemi Taking note of the approach of the great patriotic national holiday—July 4th—which this country persists in celebrating by the use of explosives and many varieties of flre works. Or. Theodore B. Appel. Secretary of Health today called publlc attention to the dang¬ ers that confront Pennsylvania peo¬ ple in a careless use of these cele¬ brating devices.
Delving into the records. Dr. Em¬ lyn Jones, Chief of the Bureau of Vital Statistics, reported to Dr. Appel that the record for Tetanus deaths last year, as In every year, was very much the greatest In the month of July. Practically one fourth of all deaths from lockjaw, which is the common name for Tetanus, occurred In JJuly of 1931, and are largely chargeable to accidents incident to tlie celebration of the Glorious Fourth.
Perhaps It would be asking too much of "young America." to insist that the u.se of blank cartridges, fire crackers, high explosives, and such like dangerous noi.se makers be en¬ tirely dl.spen.s>'d with, but certalnlv their u.se should be indulged in with the same care and realization ol danger that come.s to the man who uses d.niamite or T N T in his ordin¬ ary avocations Cold caution should take the place of hilarious enthusi¬ asm if insistence is had ou this method of en.ioying one of our fines; and most significant holidays.
Last year at 10 a. m. a happv group of 25 voung people and their elders arrived at a picnic ground In Western Pennsylvania. Within an hour the jo\- was taken ciut of the day for each member because a voting lady had held a high explo¬ sive fire cracker too long m her hand and the resultant explosion caus-»d a very serious wound, which at the time, looked like a loss of that mem¬ ber. A quick rush to the nearest hospital, prompt .services of a physi¬ cian, injection of tetanus .serum, and tlv> only result a year later is a maimed hand that will never be beautiful again and an unhappy holiday for all her friends.
The State Health Department may fight disease, and .s«>ek to prevent many inroad.s on the public heal'h But it can only soUmnly warn the people of the State against tlie very real dangers associated with flre works and the Fourth of July.
The promition exercises of the Nazareth Junior High School were held in the High School auditorium on Tuesday evening. The exercises opened with the selection "Military Escort" Bennett by the school band. The invocation by Rev. H. C. Snyder followed. Two selections by the Junior High Olee Club "The Oavot- tl" 'Mignon" A. Thomas and "When grandmother Dreams" "Minuet" by Beethoven were presented.
