School—Fifty-three Students on Hand At the Opening The opening exercise of the above institution took place at Central park on Wednesday September 16th.

A. Townsley, B. J. Ross, B. S. Hannah, P. F. Curry, Mr. G. H. Bowen and their associates that the school is now a reality and has opened its doors to 53 students who entered on the opening day.

Fields Died at His Home Wednesday Afternoon It was with 'sincere regret that the death of Mr. Wm. R. Fields was received by the people of the city. Even though his life was despaired of and death expected at any time, yet, when it happened it was received with a shock. About two years ago Mr. Fields received a stroke of paralysis, from which he rallied and continued to discharge his duties. About two months ago he was compelled to remain at home and every medical skill and attention were given him. He bore his illness with great Christian fortitude and had a cheering word for every one who visited him. His bedside was made happy and comfortable by the ever ready and untiring hands of a loving wife, dutiful daughters and son, and the kind friends who were ever ready to give a helping hand. Mr. Fields was one of our best known citizens. In early life he began to take an active part in public affairs. In early manhood he proved his piety by joining the Second Baptist Church under the pastorate of the Rev. Mr. Simpson. During the pastorate of the lamented Rev. Alexander Ellis, he was made a deacon, and for many years he was the senior of the deacons' staff. In this capacity his ability as a leader was displayed and his wise counsel had much to do in shaping the affairs of the church. In the early days of the colored military, he took an active part and was a member of the Lone Star cadets. As an Odd Fellow, he was an untiring worker and the fruits of his labors along with other veteran members of Armour Lodge are shown in the commodious building of Armour Lodge, and too, the excellent condition of said lodge. He was one of its oldest and most faithful members and past officers. He was one of the organized members of A. L. Stanford Lodge of Masons, and a member of the U. B. of A. and the Union Brotherhood and Armour Household of Ruth. Mr. Fields was connected with every public movement for good of the city. Along every line he had convictions, and expressed them in a way that was convincing and without giving offense. His counsel was always wise and sought after. He was kind to a fault and charitable in the extreme. No one has ever appealed to him for aid without success and at times some took advantage of his extremely good heart When the Wage Earners Loan and Investment Company was organized, he was among the first subscribers to its shares and an original member of the board of directors, and was soon afterward made vice-president, which office he held till death. No member of the board was more dutiful than he, and not one of them gave more unselfish service for the success of the institution than he did. One of his great hopes was to live to see the present beautiful building of this institution completed. As a Trustee of Charity Hospital he gave good service to that institution. He was a director and an organizer of the Guaranty M. L. and H. Company. For many years Mr. Fields was a trusted employee of M. Sternburg, at that time the largest jewler in the city. About twelve years ago he went in the undertaking business and for years he was manager of the Royal-Johnson Undertaking Establishment. In this his great impress was given and in it he placed his entire energy and succeeded in making the business one of the best in the South. He was one of its stockholders. The funeral took place yesterday afternoon from the Second Baptist Church and was attended by a concourse of people that taxed its main auditorium. The services were conducted by Rev. R. H. Thomas, assisted by Rev. Wm. L. Cash and Rev B. S. Hannah. Glowing tributes as to his 25 life and worth were given. The choir sang several of his favorite hyms. A large number of people viewed with bowed heads the cortege as its way was wended to Laurel Grove, where a large crowd was gathered to pay the last tribute of respect. The ceremonies of the Odd Fellows, the Masons, Armour H. H. of Ruth, the U. B. of A. The active pall-bearers were taken from the lodges to which the deceased belonged and members of the deacons' staff acted as honorary pall-bearers.

Fields of Atlantic City, N.J., two sisters, Mrs. Virginia Doode of Washington, D. C., and Mrs. Nancy Young, other relatives and a host of friends to mourn his death. Devoted attention given him by his wife and children during his illness is indeed commendable and a source of inspiration. Great was the profusion of floral offerings. The designs were more varied, costly and numerous than have been seen recently. This alone proves the great respect in which he was held by those who knew him. A number of the members and friends of St. Philip A. M. E. Church surprised the pastor, Rev. R. H. Singleton, on last Friday evening the 11th inst., on the anniversary of his 49th birthday. On being invited into the dining room, he found an unusual light occasioned by the brilliance of 48 lighted candles surrounding a large birthday cake, in the center of which was one candle brightly burning. A number of very useful presents were also given him in token of the esteem in which he is held in the church and community and as mementos of the occasion. After expressing his thanks and appreciation to the friends assembled and receiving their felicitations, refreshments were served and the company enjoyed themselves in social pastime to a very late hour.

The ceremony was very solemnly performed by Rev. J. S. Stripling, assisted by Rev. W. V. Daughtry. The bride was gowned in cream liberty silk trimmed with beaded lace and pearls. She carried a very beautiful bouquet of bridal roses and lilies of the valley. She was attended by her sister Miss Harriet ed to the altar, the maid of honor As the bridal procession proceeded to the alter, the maid of honor sang, very-sweetly Lohengrin's bridal song. Misses Edwina Wright and Lula Belle Parkhurst were brides maids. Mr. Cear K. Hardwick was groomsman, the pillow bearers being little Ella Parkhurst and Mattie Giinn, Little Jimmarie Winn was flower girl. The ushers were Messrs Joseph and Benjamin Handy, William H. and Ira S. Bryant. Very beautiful solos were rendered by Miss Bertha Lee and Mrs. Eliza Hill. The music was gracefully rendered by Miss Camilla Marshall. The bride was given away by her brother, Mr. David Cook Parkhurst. The maid of honor wore a gown made of pink liberty silk and carried a shower bouquet of pink roses. The brides maids' gowns were made of crepe meteor and trimmed with shadow lace and bridal roses. A reception was held at the home of the bride's parents on Harden street immediately after the ceremony. The bride is a very attractive and accomplished young woman. She comes from one of the oldest and best families in the city. The groom has very good family connections and is one of the progressive young men of the city. Miss Anna Jackson and Mr. Elijah Hamilton of Philadelphia, Pa. were quietly married on Monday Septe mber 14th, by Rev. R. H. Singleton. The happy couple resides at 607 West 32nd. Married SAVANNAH DELEGATES TO B. M. C. HAS FINE TRIP Was Met in Columbia by Odd Fellows from Augusta and Washington, Georgia Boston, Mass., Sept. 14th. The special Pullman sleeper that pulled out of Savannah on Friday of last week bringing the delegates to Boston to attend the B. M. C. of the Grand United Order of Odd-Fellows, which convenes here today, reached its destination on last Saturday night at 11:24 o'clock. The trip was a delightful one from start to finish. The accommodation given the delegates by the Southern Railroad was very good. Every attention was given us and any desired information cheerfully given by those in charge of the train. or those in charge of the train. The party numbering thirty-three was a jolly set of men and women and kept things lively all along the route. The party was augmented when we reached Columbia, S. C., about six thirty o'clock Friday afternoon by the Augusta and Washington, Ga., delegates in special Pullman sleepers which were attached to our train. The Augusta-Washington sleepers was cut off at Washington, D. C., while the Savannah delegation went through to New York. The scenery along the route was beautiful and many interesting things were seen. We passed through eleven states before reaching Massachusetts. Riding around the Mountains of North Carolina and viewing the green fields of Virginia were indeed interesting. One who has not traveled along this route cannot imagine how beautiful the scenery is. We arrived at Washington, D. O., at 10:30 o'clock Saturday morning and spent about three quarters of an hour there. Our next stop was at Baltimore, Md. We went from there to Wilmington, Del., where there were quite a number of large machine works in operation. After riding several miles we found ourselves riding along the edges of the Delaware bay, when we struck Philadelphia, Pa., at two twenty o'clock. After leaving there our party began looking forward to our arrival in the (Big City), New York. En route to New York we passed through Newark and Elizabeth N. J., reaching New York at four thirty Saturday afternoon, much to the pleasure of the party who were very much taken away with going through the tunnel under the Hudson river into the Pennsylvania railroad station. We then went over to the Grand Central station and boarded the train for Boston, arriving here at the hour mentioned in the first part of the article. En route from New York to Boston, we had the pleasure of stopping at New London and New Haven, Conn., and Providence, R. I. After leaving Providence, we soon found ourselves in the (Hub City) Boston, Mass. Great preparations are made here for entertaining the delegates and visitors. Hundreds are already pouring into the city and the various headquarters are a scene of activity. Our party is well taken care of and is comfortably located at the homes of former Savannahians. Savannah Boy's Fast Race Robert Hernandez. of this city won a fast 300-yard race at Poughkeepsie. N.Y., on Labor day last. Hernandez negotiated the 300 yds, in 32:4-5 seconds and was awarded a very handsome silver cup as first prize in a field of 30 runners, two colored and twenty-eight white. Four months ago Hernandez won a gold ring at a meeting held in the Duchess County Athletic Club. Installation The U. S. G. L. A.

The membership of the Golden Circle throughout the state has increased rapidly since the last annual session, over a thousand members having been added. Eight circles and three junior circles have been organized during the year. There was a large number of deputies appointed to work up the order. The spirit manifested by the delegates was that of, utmost harmony. The Golden Circle choir furnished music for the occasion, which was well rendered and enjoyed by all who attended. There were addresses delivered by some of our distinguished mebers, each holding up the banner of the S. G. L. G. U. O. of the Golden Circle.

Hubert, principa of the new Cuyler St. Schoo passed through the city, returning from a study-trip in the east, of certain vocational schools. It is his purpose, and in this he has the hearty support of Supt. Ashmore and the Board of Education, to make the new school the best of its kind in the country in the matters of English branches, and industrial arts. A thorough inspection was made of the equipments and methods of the Haines School, Mange Street, Clafton Univ., State College of S.C. Armstrong Manual Training School and other vocational schools of Washington, the Hampton Institute and Whittier School among others. A searching inquiry into the spirit and work of the Pratt Institute of New York City, and the Massachusetts College of Agriculture at Amherst has been made also. All these studies have but one end, that of making our new school the last word in equipment and spirit, the pride of Savannah and the South. Prof. Hubert while here, accompanied by Superintendent Ashmore, inspected the school, and expressed himself to The Tribune, as being highly pleased. He will return to the city about September 21st to prepare for the opening.

England, too, can swell the allied armies with great numbers of dark skinned soldiers, ft comrades on the firing line with France's Turkos and spabis. Among the most interesting as well as the most formidable Szht- ing outfits In the Indlan anmy are the Gurkhas. There are ten regiments of Gurkha rifles. These litgle fighters, who come from the reat of Nepal and yvho trace their descent from the Rajputs, would rather Sight than eat. In appearance the Gurkhns are deceiv- ing. They are short, stocky lttle men of somewhat the appearance of the Japanese, although a little heavier. And they wear perpetual grins on thefr faces. Tho grin does not come off when they go into a Aight. The Gurkhas were conquered by the British in 1814 after years of fighting and have become loyal subjects of England. When the Gurkha regiments were first made part of the Indian army they did not seem to take well to organized methods of warfare. It was not until the army authoritfes al- lowed them to make thelr national weapon, the kukri. part of their equip- ment that they regained their fame as fighters. ‘Their instructors never could make them use the bayonet.

This method of fighting 1s not un- like that of the Turkos of the Freuch army, who also “play possum” when charged by 2 heavier enemy, only to rise and take the attackers from the rear as soon as they have passed over them. Neither Gurkhas nor ‘'urkos, however, do much defensive fighting except against cavalry, for they are usually leading any charge that may be taking place in their vicinity. England, if necessary, can pour into France from India 235,000 trained men, of which 75,000 are British troops, 1n- cluding some of the crack regiments of the royal army, and the 160,000 re- maining are the fighting native troops of the Indian army. Besides these res ular troops of the Indian army the in- dependent Indfan rajahs have troops of their own, which they have offered with enthusiasm for service with the British expeditionary army. Russia's most picturesque force and one that ts perhaps the most efficient of its clags in the wena ts the Cossack cavalry. For hundreds of years these superb horsemen. trained from child- hood to feats of remarkable skill, have been famous for their courage and for daring raids against the enemy. The cesar bas 130,000 of these cavalrymen, and so far in this war they have more than lived up to their legendary ropu- tation. Belgium's most famous sokiers are @rawn from the Walloons of Wal- Joonia, of which Liege is tbe capital, in southern Belgium: These Walloons are descendants of the Belgil, the men who so bravely faced the legions of Rome under Julius Caesar. The Flem- ings in the north are ethigrants from German states, but the Walloons are in- digenous, nattres of the soil they are defending today as in the long, long past. The Walloon has been a strik- ing fignre in scores of wars in which his courage has shone, but pethaps he has made no more splendid exhibition of valor than in his brave defense of Liege. Rwereigi2e wv. Impregnable Helgoland Germany's Gibraltar In. the North Sea HE eyes of the naval experts of the world were centered upon the island of Helgoland, Germany's Gibraltar in the North sea, when the War began. It was the general opinion among them that the German squadrons would not attempt an open engagement with the British fect in the North sea, but would remain in the safe Laven of the Kiel canal, secure behind the-chain of coast defenses, of which Helgoland is the principal link. Had the island not existed and it were possible to construct a fortress at a point which would prove most formidable against attack in the North sea, Germany could not have chosen a more advantageous location. But forty-six miles distant from the mouths of the Elbe and the Weser, Welgoland on three sides rises nearly perpendicularly from the sea to a height of 150 feet. Its rugged, over- hanging, natural walls are fortified and protected to a degree which has no parallel even at Gibraltar or the Russian Cronstedt, Telgoland is the most strongly fortified place in the world, It is the key to the impregna- ble wall of redoubts which protect Germany's North sea coast line, the Wiel canal and the approaches to Hamburg and Bremen. A large section of the rocky plateau has been made to conceal guns in armored turrets, great coast weapons on disappearing mountings and 2 for midable array of rapid fire guns.

It was unti} twenty-four years ago a British possession. The peaceful trans- fer of the rugged little Jsland from Queen Victoria’s government to that of her grandson, the kaiser, Is an odd chapter of European history, and one which Britons do not now read with satisfaction. ‘From 1835 to 1890 Africa was a scene of frenzied scrambling for territory on ‘the part of England, Germany, France, Belglum, Portugal and Italy. In 1890 a number of international agreements as to African colonial boundaries and “spheres of influence” were made. In ono of these Germany agreed to recog- nize a British protectorate over Zanzi- bar, In return for this concession Great Britain ceded Heligoland (as England spelled the name) to Germany, ‘With a harbor aceommodating the largest ships, Helgoland is a naval base of great importance. But a new importance has been given to the 1s- land by the establishment there of a base for dirigible balloons. ‘The eastern end of the tsland, where this base 1s located, ts closed to all save trasted attaches having business there. Five Zeppelin dirigibles of first class size can be housed there, and a Ughting* plant and wireless oufit are connected with the station. Since the installation of the dirigtble basco less attention has been paid to the fort!- fications, military writers say, as it is held that the aff craft could prevent ‘the approach of a hostile fleet near the island. ‘The Zeppelin dirigibles are intended by their designers to rain explosives on an enemy's warship and thelr abll- ity to travel 800 miles and to reach a height of 6,000 to 8,000 fect has been shown, ‘They are thus out of gun range, and thelr inclosed cabins enable their crews to keep warm, while an aviator attempting to attack them in an aeroplane would be almost frozen. Helgoland bas a bathing beach which attracts 20,000 visitors every summer. The island’s resident population ts about 2,500.

Once he swam his horse across a river and stopped at a house near by to borrow a bucket. "I want to water my boss down here at the river," he explained. On another occasion he approached a neighbor and surprised him with the offer of a trade. "I'd like to swap my three big pigs," he said, "for three little pigs." "Well, you see," answered the other, "my pigs have got too big' for their pen." Let Me Paint That House and Save You Money! Paints insures the outside against decay; saves the inside from germs.

Not giving your whole, undivided attention to the task in which you have invested your life and money means that you are wasting your own precious time and that of others. Whatever you do, do it with your whole heart and mind or get out and try something else. It takes pretty nearly all of a man's time to perfect an undertaking, provided it be a big and worthy one to begin with. Orthography of Shakespeare. Some interesting Shakespeareana appear in the London Record. It is well known that in Shakespeare's time orthography was little accounted of and that Shakespeare himself would have considered the question of spelling his name in one way and not another a mere waste of time. It is, however, worth recording how the name struck the Bodleian officials when the first folio was given a place and mark in the library. The entries are as follows and were all written in 1623: Shakper, Shape-speare, Shakpeare, Shakespeare, Shakpeare. The testimony, so far as it goes, is obviously in favor of the form "Shakespeare" and of the present pronunciation of the word. Where He Could Be Found. It is said that once in Washington at the old Baltimore and Ohio railroad station a man was looking for Abraham Lincoln. An attendant pointed the then little Tad out to him, saying that the lad ought to be able to say where his father was. Tad said: "No. sir. I can't go and find father for you. He told me to stay right here. But if you'll go out there"—pointing to the platform—"and see a man helping somebody—that's him."—Louisville Times. The Wickedest Bit of Sea. Nine out of ten travelers would tell inquirers that the roughest piece of water is that cruel stretch in the English channel, and nine out of ten travelers would say what was not true. As a matter of fact, "the wickedest bit of sea" is not in the Dover strait or in yachting, for example, from St. Jean de Luz up to Paullac or across the Mediterranean "truce" from Cadiz to Tangier, nor is it in rounding Cape Horn, where there is what sailors call a "true" sea. The "wickedest sea" is encountered in rounding the Cape of Good Hope for the eastern portion of Cape Colony.—London Globe. Always on Time. 'A man who is constitutionally late surprised his friends by leaving the house at 1 o'clock to keep a 2 o'clock appointment. "Jim's watch must be wrong or he wouldn't have started so early," they said. "He will surely be on time today. Where in the world can he be going?" "He is going to a funeral," volunteered one who knew. "He is one of the pallbearers. Very seldom are pallbearers behind time. I have known men who were late on every other imaginable occasion—late for their own weddings even—but if chosen for pallbearers they always came up to the mark."—New York Globe. Paganinia Gah On awakening one morning at his hotel in Vienna Paganini, the celebrated violinist, was informed that the cabman whom the previous evening he had employed to drive him to the concert hall where he was playing was waiting to see him. On being admitted to his presence the man, after having advanced poverty and a large family as an excuse for the request that he was about to make, prayed the great musician to make his fortune. "What do you mean?" demanded Paganini. "Authorize me to write in large letters on the back of my vehicle these two words, 'Paganini's Cab,'" was the answer. Consent was given, with altogether satisfactory results. Answering the Phone. Commenting on the fact that however inaccessible a business man may be to callers, he will generally answer the telephone. Electricity says that the explanation is a very simple one. There is an element of mystery about a telephone call. The called party never knows, until he actually responds, whether or not the caller is a person of importance or has something of vital import to communicate. It is just a matter of luck, and your average business man, no matter how deep he may be in the conduct of his affairs with others actually present, will almost invariably break off the most important personal conversation to answer a telephone call. Stevenson Carried His Tall Hat. Sir Sidney Colvin, in a lecture or "Personal Rominiscences of R. L. Stevenson," denied firmly that Stevenson had any affectation. "R. L. S," said Sir Sidney, "did once possess a frock coat and tall hat, which he acquired for the purposes of a wedding. Coming to London subsequently, he made the concession to my respectability of donning the coat and hat, and thus we walked down Plocadilly. But the hat was in Stevenson's hand, and as the gates of Burlington House closed on us, Stevenson was declaiming in vibrant voice and rich Scotch accent a chorus from Milton's 'Snowson Agonistes.'"—London Globe. CHEERFULNESS Great is a cheerful spirit. All the world loves a brave man, but the courage that is seasoned with cheerfulness is the best courage. Great is the man who can walk up to the smoking cannon without flinching; greater is he who can face the cannon with a song and a cheer. Great is the man who can bear a misfortune without trying to shirk it; greater is he who can laugh at it and carry his cross as if it were a royal banner. Very Plain. Restaurant Patron—That isn't a very good looking piece of meat. Walter—Well, you ordered a plain steak. The Man and the Mummy. "This," said the guide who was piloting a bunch of tourists through Egypt as he pointed to a mummy, "was a high priest, the wisest man of his day. He lived to a great age." "Was his last illness fatal?" queried the wag of the bunch. "Of course it was," answered the guide, with a look of pity at the other. A Medal of Blood. Garibaldi was once presented with a medal made of his own blood. The giver was Dr. Manini of Naples, who was well known as a petrifier and preserver of the human body. Dr. Manini in offering the gift to Garibaldi said that whenever the general looked at it it would brace him up for the last fight, and across the medal were engraved the words, "The Blood of Garibaldi Is Forever Red." The strange medal is preserved by the general's descendants. Humorous by Comparison. Strickland W Gillibian tells of a hotel waitress who was reading a book and laughing heartily. An impertinent person leaned over her shoulder and exclaimed. "Girl, what on earth are you laughing at? That's the dictionary you're reading." "Yes, I know, but it's so much funnier and newer than the line of 'smart talk' the fresh guys give me at the table that I'm liable to die laughing at it some time."—Kansas City Star. To the Life. "That actress is doing wretched work in the laundress role." "Isn't she mangling her page?"—Baltimore American. New Cotton In America. Arizona cotton growers must be feeling jubilant. They have produced about 2,000 bales of Egyptian long stuple cotton—a new product in America. They have succeeded in selling at a price which nets the growers in the Salt River valley 21½ cents a pound. The farmers there expect to grow only the one variety henceforth—Farm and Fireside. The Gordian Knot When one of Uncle Sam's sailors, a man named Gordon, formerly serving on one of the vessels in a West Indian squadron, was taken to the Naval hospital in Washington he described with grewsome vividness to his companions there his adventure with a shark off one of the islands in the West Indies. "I had jest fell over the bulwarks," said the able seaman; "when along comes a big shark an' grabs me by the leg." "What did ye do then, matey?" asked one of the patients. "I never disputes none with sharks," said the sailor. "I let him have the leg." Hadn't Been Taught Little Grace, who had recently entered school, brought home some pumpkin seed one day and told her mother that the teacher said that although the seed was white the pumpkin would be yellow. "And, what will the color of the vines be?" her mother asked. Grace replied that the teacher had not taught her that yet. "I know, dear, but we have pumpkin vines in our garden, and you must know what color they are." "Oh, of course I do, mother, but we aln't supposed to know anything until we're taught," replied Grace convincingly.—National Magazine Eggad Pasha's Revenue A number of years ago Genl Bey, Essad Pasha's brother and, like himself, an Albanian nationalist, was shot by order of Abdul Hamid. For this reason, when the Turkish parliament deposed the sultan, Essad Pasha begged to be sent to Yildiz kiosk to tell Abdul of his fate. Accompanied by three others, he presented himself before his brother's murderer and pronounced the formula: "In accordance with Fetva, the representatives of the nation have decreed your deposition. Follow us." Essad subsequently declared that April 27, 1900, when he thus tasted the sweets of revenge, was the happiest day he had ever known—London Spectator. First Necessity: "How would you define a crying need?" asked the teacher of the rhetoric class. "A handkerchief," replied the solemn young man with the wicked eye.—Chicago Tribune. Safe. Henn—Does your wife handle the purse strings? Peck—Yes. And they're always tied in a knot.—Judge. Obliging. "My wife will borrow trouble." "Send her over here. We've got plenty to lend her."—Baltimore American. On a Big Liner. "Let's go forward to the main deck." "All right. Steward, call us a taxi cab."—Washington Herald. His Normal State.

I'm a strict vegetarian."—Punch. Panama's Rainfall. Panama on the north side of the country has a rainfall of about 140 inches a year. PRAISE AND CENSURE Do not rely upon praise in pushing your life work, and do not permit censure to discourage you if you know you are right. Praise is of no use as a mainspring. Power lies outside of it, and entirely independent of it, in all truly valuable lives. Tennyson, the poet, was also the practical man when he remarked, "I think it is wisest in a man to do his work in the world as quietly and as well as he can without heeding praise or dispraise."

JOHNSON Editor and Proprietor Published Every Saturday 1009 WEST BROAD STREET Phone 2171 Again, we are face to face with school opening days. After a period of three months or more of vacation, spent no doubt pleasantly, the great American army of school boys and girls find themselves at the beginning of another school year. The doors of our public and private schools, colleges and universities are now being opened for the reception of students. Another eight or nine months will pass swiftly by and then these doors close again. A short period indeed, apparently, is this period for preparation, but then a long and ample one is it, if the time is properly spent in preparation and study. What an opportunity for development these school days present to the boy or girl who appreciates their value! In this age of enlightenment and competition, favoritenment plays a very small part indeed. It is the man or woman who does things whom the world wants and is beckoning for. In order to be able to hold one's own, one must be prepared. He must have the necessary qualifications which will enable him "to deliver the goods." If he is weighed in the balances and he surely will be if he enters the field of competition with his fellow men, he must not only be able to do his work well but in most instances he must be able to perform his task better than the other fellow. There is no agency in America or any other land which has so much to do with the making of the successful man or woman as the school. It is his moulder. It is the crucible through which he must pass in order to take on the shape which civilization demands of him. How important is it then for our boys and girls to enter the schools with the grim determination to get out of them all that they are able to give! In order to get the most out of the schools, our young folk must make up their minds to put the most of themselves in them. The public and private schools of the cities of our American commonwealth have been wooven with a fine system. Results will come from them if they receive the proper support and encouragement from those whom they serve, the boys and girls of school age. In order that the schools may receive this support and encouragement which of right belong to them, the parents of our boys and girls can and ought to play no little part. Every parent should see to it that his boy or girl or tbb have their places in school the opening day and there remain unless providentially hindered until the school year closes. Every parent should see to it that his child or children bend every energy within themselves to profit educationally, in the broadest sense of the word by their presence in school. Every parent should see to it that co-operation with the school authorities shall not be lacking on his part in order that the results so much desired may be obtained. The school system of America is a grand one. It has done incalculable service in moulding lives of usefulness for American civilization. It will do more if the school boys and girls together with their parents will unite with one band to work as never before for their greater success. Indeed school days are here again. They are of much significance. Let our people realize this fact and do their part toward having their children at school on opening day and keeping them there throughout the year. strative by the dismissal of competent carriers in the local post office against whom no honest charge can be proven, and the non-appointing of efficient colored substitutes who are on the eligible list and have been longer than any of the whites newly appointed as carriers. The Democrats will again need the Negro votes. The Negroes' Opportunity as a Shoemaker There is grave fear that the colored shoemakers who held the field alone forty years after the war, are about to lose out to the foreigner, who is pushing colored shoemakers to the wall in most of the large cities of the South, and gradually crowding him in the smaller towns. Bigger quarters, new machinery, swifter work, greatly reduced prices for work, these are the weapons employed by the foreigners in undermining the colored shoemaker. The day of the one-bench, two-last, waxed-thread and two-awl is of the past, and shoemaking is now a trade in which machinery is employed to a great extent; and rapid work means plenty work. The foreigners were not all shoemakers back in their countries, as most people imagine, but they are simply a thrifty people. Coming into the South, they noted that shoemaking, the trade that is never idle, was in the hands of colored men who made little improvement in their shops, and who consumed too much time in making shoes and at repairing, and the foreigner got busy, now he is on every corner. The hope is that young colored men will catch the spirit of modern methods and some of them turn their attention to the trade in which their fathers had complete sway for many years, for shoemaking is a trade in which there is a large profit and ceaseless work. At Tuskegee Institute the shoe-making division is one of the largest of all places, offering to the student desiring to learn the trade every convenience known to the trade, and a perfect theory. Opportunity is given for constant practice in the large amount of work the division is called on to do both in making and in repairing. The shop, one of the largest on the grounds, is fitted up with the latest machinery; including Goodyear welt and Goodyear turning machine; rapid lock stitcher; a welt channeler, bobbinwinder, welt-groover, welt-splitter, and two W and W uppermaking machines. Sunday was an interesting day at Asbury and there was a large attendance at each service. Rev. J. W. Tindall preached at the morning service. Prof. James, of Statesboro, was also with us at this service. The Methodist Brotherhood met at 5:30 p. m., and held an interesting meeting. The brotherhood was given a short address by Mr. Ira S.

I to presch this gospel and showing that the six Negro industrial insurance companies of this city had an income amounting to $566,775.50 in the six months ending December 1912 according to official report. Now comes the startling announcement from a local statistician saying, that the seven Negro companies paid out during the first week in July 1914 right here in Savannah $1,766.70 in salaries and commissions to their employees for one week's work.

T Germany, like a southern demagogue, has raised the color question which will not in the least help her. T Dr. Booker T. Washington will tour England next spring and there present the progress of the Negro; thus it is assured that the Negroes' cause will be helped a hundred fold. In several churches and other institutions there are frequent charges of graft, etc.; these institutions should be free of such charges. Nothing causes the confidence of the people to be shaken more easily than such charges. New comes the Democratic President and his congress with a bill to burden the people with a war tax; but can we expect less of a Democratic administration? From the New York Age we have learned that the Outlook, Century and the Curtis publications, and to cap them all, the Associated Press, have decided to use the capital "N" when using the word Negro. The Tribune has ever contended for this and it is only right and proper. Let other reputable publications follow suit. "Buy a bale" is the slogan going the rounds to help the farmer with his cotton crop. All who are able should join the movement and help those upon whom the prosperity of the country depends In Chatham County we have hundreds of acres of land owned by our people. Less than half of this acreage is tilled by them. Allowing half of these lands to lay idle means the loss of hundreds of dollars each year. Get the "back to the soil" habit, thereby helping yourselves and becoming more independent. $ ^{T}$ The crusade against loafers is welcomed. In this let there be no race discrimination. The idle ones make up the great criminal class. $ ^{T}$ Prepare now to send your children to school on the opening day. Let not one stay at home who is able to toddle. Dr. Washington struck a key note in admonishing the Negroes to "Get off the defensive and inaugurate an aggressive, a constructive and a progressive policy in business, industry, education, moral and religious life. What about a steam laundry? what about a first class shoe store, a gent's furnishing store? The time is ripe. These are golden opportunities that are being slipped. "The prayer of a Christian availeth much." Let this be demonstrated on Sunday October 4th, when by presidential proclamation the entire country will join in prayer for peace. All of the anti-Blease candidates were elected in the second primary held in South Carolina. This is great cause for additional rejoicing over the defeat of a blatant demagogue, like Blease. Our boys and girls should be taught to read more about the history of the Negro and the achievements of our noted men. This will give them much inspiration. Editor Clifford in his Pioneer Press raps President Wilson for issuing a proclamation for peace prayers, and adds "why not pray for the rights of humanity and peace at home where the blackest crimes on God's green earth obtain!" The Turkish ambassador sent out a similar reminder last week. The Democrats should name their "war" tax, a peace tax levied on account of Democratic financial and tariff blunders. A war tax in time of peace is unheard of, but anything, to throw dust in the voters' eyes. It now behooves certain boys in Uncle Sam's service to cut out the good time and husband their earnings and preserve their health. T Party harmony means much for Republican success. If this is secured the Democrats will have to take to the "tall timbers. T The Democrats promised much to the colored brothers in the election two years ago. They have kept this in a way demon- Asbury M. E. Church A Brief Review Not long ago the Ga Mutual proclaimed itself a modern-business missionary. intending H. T. Singleton, Supt. —Ad. Memorial Services at Mt. Zion Baptist Church The memorial services to be held at Mt. Zion Baptist Church beginning Monday night Sept. 21, to 27th promised to be very interesting. These services will be dedicated to the memory of the deceased pastors, deacons and members of the church. The program committee has arrange a short appropriate program for each night, and is busy trying to make these services the best yet. The sacred concert by the choir, on last Sunday night, was very good. The several selections rendered wers highly commended Regular services tomorrow as usual and we solicits your presence. All visitors and friends are extended a cordial invitation to our memorial services. The Brotherhood meets regularly on the second Sunday in each month, and the meetings are usually well attended and interesting. The committee which has in charge the matter of encouraging church attendance among the men of the church, reported that it was doing earnest work and meeting with success. The fact that so many of the churches in this city, organized similar work among their men members, made the organization of the committee from the Congregational Brotherhood useless. The committee referred to here, is the committee which was appointed for the purpose of trying to influence other cdurches in the city to organize brotherhoods, but the members of our society so zealous were they, outran the committee, and organizations among the men of the various churches sprang up mushroomlike. Our brotherhood has done some real work since it has been organized. It has paid the insurance on the church, has assisted a young man to enter college and has taken the initial steps in the direction of securing a settlement worker. That brotherhood encourages all phases of the church work and its membership increases at every meeting. The committee on program is preparing for the next public meeting, due notice of which will be given through The Tribune The services at St. Paul were good Sunday. The presiding elder, Rev. G. W. Taylor preached both morning and evening. The Conference was held Monday night. It was a peaceful and progressive conference. Mrs. Annie Battle, of club No. 1, led in the raising of funds and was awarded the gold ring by the presiding elder. The pastor will give a special sermon Sunday night, with steroptican views. All friends are invited. The Sunday school is progressing real well under the superintendent, Brother Thomas Hamilton, Jr. The choir, under the direction of Brother J. C. Cross, chorister, and Mrs. Edgar Blair, organist, is taking on new life. It appears that the members of St. Paul are in harmony with the pastor's spirit and with the present progressive movement there will be a greater St. Paul Church.

Verbena Court sustains a great loss in the death of sister Emma Harper, who departed this life July 1st last. Sister Harper was a member of our Court about two years and was a faithful and honourable member, one who had a quiet, peaceful disposition, a willing worker. The home has lost its guiding star, the husband a kind and loving wife, whose thoughts were always for his comfort. Therefore be it Resolved that whereas it has pleased the almighty God in His wise providence to remove from our midst our beloved sister, we feel that she has fallen in full triumph of faith. Her days of meeting with us are over, and she has gone to meet her well earned reward. Be it further Resolved that we, the members of Verbena, how our heads in humble submssion to the will of the Almighty who doeth all thingswell. We therefore extend to the bereaved family and relatives of sister Harper our heartfelt sympathy in the great loss of that home. Sleep on, sister Harper, sleep on, thy days of toil are over. Thou will meet us no more in Verbena Court room, but rest upon the shore. Thy weary soul has taken its flight, has spread its pinions broad, shaken off this world's pain and strife and made its way to God. Yet again we hope to meet thee When the day of life is fled, Then in Heaven with joy to greet thee, Where no farewell tears are shed. Sister Lena Parlin, Sister J. A. Stewart. Bro, R. Edmonson, chairman In sad memory of MRS. EVILINA H. BRYANT. who departed this life, Sept. 19th 2013. At the close of the evening Silently strove death's icy hands, In spite of all our tears and groans, Plucked away the star of our home, Hugels bore her soul to Heaven. There she waits with joy to greet us On that fair celestial Shore. By her devoted mother, Mrs. Louisa Huger Sister, Mrs. Martha Ferrior, Brothers, Joseph Johnson and Henry Huger.

A senator was praising the humor of a certain congressman. "His humor, however," he concluded, "is rather grim. I told him the other day about a mutual acquaintance who had died, a man he had never liked. "And his wife is dead, too," I said. "He himself died on Monday; his wife died two days later. The papers didn't say what killed her." "She was tickled to death, I guess," said the congressman grimly. How to Strike Safety Matches It is a common thing with smokers for their safety match boxes to give out on the striking side before all the matches are used up. If they will keep in mind just one thing this can always be averted. The safety striking part is very quick on trigger and needs only a slight contact instead of a long scratch. Simply snap the end of the match quickly for about a quarter of an inch on the striking surface. In this way the outside may always be kept fresh and usable. The long scratch, of course, causes the match to ignite before contact ceases, and the surface is actually burnt up. Some safety matches will strike on a windowpane—Chicago Record-Herald The Housewife Week Feeling Mondayish said a man at the club. "What's that?" There were explanations, which suggested that the Mondayish feeling was a survival from school days. The man with the Monday feeling admitted he had that shack feeling on the second day of the week, but that as the years had passed Monday had become to him just washing day. This is how he described the week: Monday, washing day; Tuesday, ironing day; Wednesday, matinee day; Thursday, early closing day; Friday, tidying up day; Saturday, shopping day, and Sunday the day of rest.

THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES Text of the Lesson, Matt xxv, 31-46 Memory Verses, 34-36—Golden Text, Matt xxv, 45—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearma. To understand this lesson as to the interpretation of it, the time when and the parties concerned, we must notice carefully the first verse and the words, "When the Son of Man shall come in His glory and all the holy angels with Him, then shall He sit upon the throne of His glory." That defines clearly the time when, and also that the judgment referred to is not the judgment of the saints, His redeemed ones, for when He shall come in His glory they shall come with Him, the Old Testament as well as the New Testament saints, if we may make that distinction. Let the Holy Spirit tell you about this as you read Zech. xv. 5; Col. ill. 4; I Thess. ill. 13; Rev. ill. 21. Then, as to the people to be judged, note the second verse of the lesson, "Before Him shall be gathered all nations." Could anything be more clear and plain in this connection than the statements in Joel ill, 1-2, that in connection with the restoration and deliverance of His people, Israel, He will gather all nations in the valley of Jehoshaphat and judge them because of their treatment of Israel? In Zeph. ill, 8, He says that it is His determination to gather the nations and pour upon them His indignation, and in the rest of that chapter He calls upon Israel to be glad and rejoice, for He will be mighty in their midst and get them praise and fame in every land where they have been put to shame. In Zech. xiv, 2, He says that He will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; in verse 4 that He will stand again upon the Mount of Olives, and in verse 9 that after that He will be king over all the earth. Let us then be clear about this—that in this judgment among those to be judged will not be found His body, the church, for she shall be with Him, nor Israel, for she is not reckoned among the nations (Num. xxii, 9). There is no mention of any resurrection of the dead, just or unjust, so it is not the judgment of the saints who shall never come into judgment for sin (John v, 24), because that was settled on Calvary, both shall be judged for their works after the first resurrection at the judgment seat of Christ for believers only (1 Thess. iv, 16-18; I Cor. xv, 51, 52; Rom. xix, 10; II Cor. v, 19). It is not the great white throne judgment of Rev. xx. 11-15, where the unrighteous shall appear after their resurrection a thousand years later than the resurrection of the junt (Rev. xx. 5-6). It is simply, as the record says, a judgment of nations, as such, by their respective armies, and the question is, their good or ill treatment of His people, Israel. As all individual salvation is through Jesus of Manasseh of the tribe of Judah and king of the Jews, so the salvation of nations will be through Him also, but to persons Hon, with a righteous Israel, who will receive Him as their Messiah when they shall see Him coming in His glory to the Mount of Olives for their deliverance. They shall then say, "La this is our God; we have waited for Him, and He will save us; this is Jehovah, we have waited for Him; we will be glad and rejoice in His salvation." After that "Israel shall blossom and bud and fill the face of the earth with fruit" (Is. xxv, 9; xxvii, 6). Then shall the saved nations who shall hear Him say, "Come, ye blessed," inherit the kingdom when the kingdoms under the whole heaven shall have become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ and shall walk in the light of the new Jerusalem and bring their glory and honor into it (Her. xi, 15; xxi, 21). The others shall hear Him say, "Deart, ye cursed," and shall be punished, with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power (II Thess. 1, 9). Any one who denies the truth of everlasting punishment, according to—the last verse of our lesson, must reject the plain words of the Lord Jesus in this passage and elsewhere, as in Mark 1x, 48, 50, 47. In this last verse of our lesson the same word is applied to punishment on to life (versal version). I have endeavored to show the teaching of the Bible concerning the judgments in a tract entitled "The Four Judgments" which may be obtained from Mr. Fred Kelner, box Z16, Harrington, Pa. If you send for, it ask also for "The secret of Missionary Interest" and see how God honors the simple expedition of His word. If this lesson does not, refer to the church except as seen with the Lord on His throne, where is the heart lesson for the believer? Here is one, at least, the great, "masmuch," principle, which always holds good. Whatever any believer does in His name, He counts as done to Himself and will reward it accordingly.

In communities where the I dds are small and the individual rryman does not feel that he can afford to purchase a pure bred bull for his own use, it is a good plan for two or more men to own one in partnership. An entire community may own one or more bulls and co-operate in their use. In such cases it will be necessary for the community, or at least the persons co-operating, to select and advance the interests of one breed—that is, bulls of one breed should be used, whether on grade or pure bred cows. "This plan would make it possible to shift the bulls from one hard to an- ```markdown ``` A COMMUNITY MAY OWN ONE OR MORE BULLS. other without the bad effects of breeding the offspring of a bull of one breed to a bull of another breed, and the necessity of disposing of a valuable bull rather than use him on his own progeny. Where more than one bull is used an association should be formed and the business conducted by honest, competent officers. This association could cover a large territory and handle a large number of bulls. In this way the grade cattle of a section can be improved rapidly without great cost to any one individual. The association may be confined to pure breds, or to grades or it may include both. Such organizations are being operated in many states and are meeting the expectations of their members.

ALLIES SEEM VICTORIOUS Under Steady Rain of Shot and Shell 'From Guns of British and French the Tide of Battle Has Been Turned. The sixth week of the war between Germany and France, Great Britain and Belgium has brought a vast transformation. The pursued are now the pursuers. The irresistible sweep of seven German armies through Belgium into France met an immovable force at the River Marne. The army of General Von Kluck, which so long battled to turn the allies' western flank, was slowly and steadily outflanked. Its retirement before the small but hardy British army turned the tide of battle. Today, if French official reports are correct, all the German armies except that facing Verdun and a few miles southwest, are retreating. General Von Kluck's army, which a week ago was a few miles southeast of Paris, has retired more than 60 miles to the northeast, while on the extreme right the army of the Bavarian crown prince, which was attacking the French eastern line from Nancy to Epinal, has fallen back to the frontiers of Lorraine, permitting the French to reoccupy Luneville and several other towns. General Joffre, French commander-in-chief, pictures the retreat as hurried, if not disorderly, with the Germans abandoning prisoners, wounded and supplies. Situation Dark for Austrian Army. News from the Austrian frontier describes even in darker colors the situation of the Austrian army, especially since Germany has notified her ally that she is unable to send more reinforcements into Galicia, owing to graver conditions on the western front. Even is asserted that the German contingents which reached Grodek to help the Austrians may be recalled to Germany, as Germany wishes to center all her efforts against the allies. In the battles proceeding in Galicia and Russian-Poland success appears to belong to the Russiana. They are reported to have won a decisive victory at Krasniki and Temaszow. The Austrian and German armies are estimated at forty and reinforced by several German divisions of infantry and cloven of cavry, totalling more than a million men, and reinforced by several German divisions. AERIAL BATTLE. Milled in 15-Mile Chase In Air. The killing of two German aviators after being chased by a French aviator in another machine was reported at Paris. The German acceplane flow over Treynau, dropping several bombs, one of which fell at the station at the moment the Belfort train was arriving. The bomb exploded, but no casualties resulted. A French aviator immediately sent his machine after the Germans, and after chasing them for fifteen miles and killed the two German officers who were flying the machine. Brilliant Charge by Algerians. A feature of one action was another herp charge by the Algerian rifleman. At a critical moment it became necessary to carry a certain position and after the artillery had prepared the way 2,000 Algerians, with fixed bayonets, charged the position at double-quick under a storm of shot and shell. They never stepped until they reached the trenches, where they wrought fearful carnage. Many pieces of artillery and machine guns were captured. After the Algerians came the infantry and artillery and the wedge driven into the line forced the Germans to retreat. They were pursued by the Algerians who inflicted terrible losses. Retreat of Germans. Vitry-Le-Francois, the fortified stronghold of the German' center, has been evacuated, the Germans have left the neighborhood of Nancy, the French have reoccupied Luneville and the allies have crossed the Aisne river and the Marne between Epernay and Vitry. The German retreat has become so rapid that it may be described as a flight. These, together with the withdrawal of the German left wing in the Argonne forest, were the outstanding features of the official announcement of the war office at Bordeaux. Woman Fought in Trenches. Among the wounded brought to Noisy-Le-Sec, a town in the department of the Seine and near the Ourcq canal, was a young laundress in a soldier's uniform. She had followed a company of Zouaves and had fought alongside of them in the trenches. Her identity was not discovered until she was wounded. Before sending her to the rear the commanding officer complimented her on her bravery. Kaiser Saw Troops Attack Nancy. The Geneva correspondent of the London Express hears from a German source that Emperor William watched the attack on Nancy from a hill outside the range of the French artillery. Standing alone with the glasses glued to his eyes, he followed the progress of his first battle for several miles, while his staff, consisting of several high officials, remained distinctly in the background. Health is worth much to people of any occupation, but no occupation is more dependent upon it than farming. Farming requires physical labor of considerable endurance, notwithstanding the extensive use of improved implements and machines. Successful farming also requires mental activity. Good health means physical and mental vigor, without which farming cannot succeed. With these facts before us let us conserve our strength and take every known precaution to prevent disease. Farm and Ranch. THE EARNINGS OF FARMERS. Many Do Not Correctly Estimate Their Incomes. The money that a farmer takes in each year above his cash expenses is an income from two distinct sources first, interest on money invested in the farm business; second, wages for the labor and managing ability of the farmer and his family. Many people who think that they are financially successful as farmers are actually living on the interest from the money invested in the farm business and on the labor of their sons and daughters. For his own work the farmer frequently receives only a fraction of a hired man's wages. The reason is that when one has his farm clear of debt he often forgets that interest on the investment is a receipt, similar to the interest that one receives on a deposit in a savings bank, for the farm could be sold and the money invested so as to secure 4 to 6 per cent interest with no work on the part of the farmer. A farmer who farm is mortgaged for a good portion of its value is not at all likely to forget that interest on the investment is a part of the year's expense. If he does the owner of the mortgage will remind him of it upon each interest day. A farmer who has a farm and equipment worth $16,000 could secure an income of $800 per year by selling his farm and putting the money at interest, assuming that he could invest the proceeds so as to secure 5 per cent interest—W. L. Cavert, Assistant Agriculturist, University Farm, St. Paul LAW NOTES FOR FARMERS Do not rely upon the oral guarantee of any agent who sells you something as to its quality or condition. Such guarantee will not be binding on the principal unless it was duly authorized, and this is often very difficult to prove. Do not depend upon a more oral guarantee in any case. It is always difficult to prove, and witnesses are generally forgetful and indifferent. It is easy to put a guarantee in writing which fixes the responsibility without other evidence. Do not depend upon the guarantee of a firm or company as to the condition or quality of things sold to you unless you are satisfied that the firm or company is financially responsible and that its general course of dealing is honorable. The same caution is applicable when dealing with private individuals. Do not be persuaded against your better judgment to sign a note as surety for a friend. In the language of Solomon, "A man void of understanding striketh hands and becometh surety in the presence of his friend." And again, "He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it, and he that hath surety is suret." Do not give your promissory note to a stranger for something which he promises to deliver to you in future. He may be neither honest nor financially responsible. He may sell your note before it is due for a valuable consideration and fail to deliver the goods, and you will nevertheless liable for the amount of the note. Unfamiliar Catacombs. Italy contains numerous unknown catacombs. Aside from the miles of unexplored passages in Rome, there are, other great subterranean regions in southern Italy, through which the foot of man has not trod for centuries. These do not include the Etrurian burial vaults. The catacombs of St. John at Syracuse are among the most elaborate in existence. They were of pagan origin and passed to the Christians. There are to be seen large streets and passages, the last containing sepulchral chambers originally closed by locked doors, the hinges of which are still to be seen. At Taormina there is a Saracen catacomb, while near Palermo are seen the catacombs of the Capochina. Lucky Mamma Didn't Hear. "Papa, what is a masked battery?" "A shrewish tongue concealed by a pair of pretty lips, my boy." Homemade Ink. A good ink is made in this way: Brunei half a pound of nutgalls and stand in one quart of water, shaking it now and then, for about four hours. Then add three ounces and a half of gum arabic and when it is quite dissolved three ounces of copperas. To prevent the ink from becoming moldy when kept add three or four drops of creosote. This gives a pleasant-like smell to the ink and does not corrode the pens as chloride of mercury would do. Stewart Edward White Relates His Experience In Motion Drama In a recent letter to a friend Stewart Edward White gives a graphic account of his first and only experience as an actor—and as a motion picture actor at that. It was during the production of Mr. White's novel, "Conjuror's House," in the woods of the Sierras that Mr. White had his experience as a movie actor. Patrons of the movies by this time will be familiar with Mr. White's Indian makeup, because "Conjuror's House" was recently produced under the title of "The Call of the North," with Mr. Robert Edeson in the leading role. Mr. White's account is as follows: "When 'Conjuror's House' was sold for the movies I confess I was only mildly interested. However, after I had talked with Mr. De Mille, who was to manage the production, and A had seen the cast and reviewed the preparations, I decided to go down personally to see the thing through. Apparently no expense was to be spared; but, more important, no detail making for accuracy, either of equipment, of action, of woodcraft or of the historical values, was to be omitted. "The big man who so impressively plays Me-en-gan is a cowboy and had never before seen a canoe. He never succeeded in learning to stay in one. 'Why,' he remarked plaintively after one disaster, 'I just reached behind me for my weapon and the blame thing bucked.' In spite of our training, however, we could get nobody skillful enough to take the bow and stern paddles, so finally Mr. Fisher and myself had to assume costumes and play Injun. For this, when payday came, we received $9 apiece. This is the first money I have ever made as an actor. Fisher, however, outdid me, for he sacrificed his mustache for the occasion. "In the bear trap scene, in which Achille Picard gets his arm caught, we weakened the spring by hammering it until it barely closed. Even then, and with Picard's arm heavily padded, that character found his part sufficiently realistic. The fight between Me-en-gan and Mr. Robert Edeson as Trent was another realistic bit. The struggle was long continued and very genuine, and as we were playing at an altitude of 7,000 feet the final stagger as they leave the film is not at all 'put on.'" OUR AMBASSADOR TO FRANCE Myron T. Herrick Still Continues In Office Despite Successor's Arrival. Myron T. Herrick, who despite the arrival of the new American ambassador to France in Paris still continues to exercise his functions at the American embassy, is winning golden opinions from all sorts of people. Mr. William Graves Sharp, the newly appointed United States ambassador to France, is assisting Mr. Herrick in his work and has shown his wisdom and patriotism in thus subordinating him J. HON. MYRON T. HERRICK. self to Mr. Herrick, whose long experience enables him to be particularly useful at this troubled time. Mr. Herrick has always been very popular in Paris and has shown remarkable ability as a diplomatist, although previous to his appointment by President Taft he had had no diplomatic training. He had been a political leader in Ohio and governor of that state. By force of character and by wise use of his abilities and grasp of the situation he has made for himself a place and a name not only in Paris, but all over the civilized world.

In fact, he regards books as instruments of torture. One of the professors picked up a textbook belonging to him the other day and found on the flyleaf this bit of verse, which no doubt expressed the student's opinion of it: Should there be another flood For refuge hither fly. And should the whole world be submerged This book would still be dry. Working Overtime. Mr. Griffin had spent an anxious afternoon at the office and hurried home at an unusually early hour. "How do you feel, dear? What did the doctor say?" he questioned his wife as she lay on a couch, her eyes half closed. "Oh, he asked me to put out my tongue," she murmured. "Yes?" "And after looking at it he said, 'Overworked.'" Mr. Griffin heaved an audible sigh of relief. "I have perfect faith in that doctor, Mabel," said he firmly. "You will have to give a rest."—Buffalo Express. The Voice of Experience. "So you want to marry my daughter?" said Mr. Cumrox. "Yes," replied the young man. "I am sure she loves me."

The largest bell ever made was cast in Moscow, Russia, in 1733. Its weight was 220 tons.

A boulder of Brunswick, Lower Saxony, raised his son to the sublime degree of a Master Mason, and in addition to the formal charge he thus addressed him: "I congratulate you on your admission into the most ancient and perhaps the most respectable society in the universe. To you the mysteries of Massy are about to be revealed, and so bright a sun never showed insite on your eyes. In this moment when at this holy altar, do you not shudder at every crime, and have you not confidence in every virtue? May this reflection inspire you with noble sentiments; may you be prepared with a religious abhorrence of every vice that degrades, human nature; and may you feel the elevation of soul which shows a dishonorable action, and ever invites to the practice of piety and virtue.

You are the son of a Mason who glorifies in the profession, and for your real and attentive, your silence and good conduct, your father has already plowed his honor. You are now, as a member of this institution, Oral, introduced to a subject of a new country, whose intent is boundless. Pictures are open to your view, wherein true patriotism is exemplified, in claring colors, and a series of transactions, are recorded, which the rude hand of time can never erase. The obligations which influenced the first-Brutus aid, Manlius to sacrifice their children, to the love of their country, are not more sacred than those which bind me to support the honor and repitation of this venerable Order. This moment, my son, you owe to me a second birth, should your conduct in life correspond with the principles of Masonry, my remaining years will pass away with pleasure and satisfaction. Observe the great example of our ancient Masters pursue our history and our institutions. The best, the most humane, the bravest, the most civilized of men have been our patrons. Though the vulgar are strangurs to our works, the greatest opinions have sprung from our Order. The most illustrious characters on earth have laid the foundation of their most amiable qualities in Masonry. The wisest of princes, Solomon, planned our Institution, at raising a temple to the Eternal and Supreme Ruler of the Universe. Swear, my son, that you will be true and faithful Mason. Know from this moment, that I enclose the affection of a parent in the name of a brother and a friend. May your heart be susceptible of love and esteem, and may you burn with the same zeal your brother possesses. Convince the world by your alliance, you are deserving our fayors, and never forget the ties which bind you to honor and to justice. View not with indifference the extensive connections you have formed, but let universal benevolence regulate your conduct. Exert your abilities in the service of your king and your country, and deem the knowledge you have this day attained the happiest acquisition of your life. Recall to your memory the ceremony of your initiation; learn to bridle your tongue and to govern your passions; and ere long you will have occasion to say in becoming a Mason I truly became the man, and while I breathe I will never disgrace a jewel that kings may prize."—The Freeman. The term dotage is a term applied to a condition and is not limited by age. A man may be in his dotage at 45, 60, or 80. The majority of men who reach 75 are not in their dotage. As long as a candidate can intelligently understand the work and learn the lectures in Masonry he is not in his dotage, even though he be as old as Methuselah. Masonry is not, as the ignorant and uninstructed vainly suppose, founded on unmeaning mystery for the encouragement, of bachalian revelry and festivity, or the support of mere good fellowship, but it is an institution founded on the principles of eternal reason and truth, whose deep basis is the civilization of mankind and whose overlasting glory is supported by those two mighty pillars, science and morality.—The globe.
