Services al 1917 o'clock u. M, addressed by
Rev. DR.. Hoyt. Meeting at 8 b. m. at
which various papers pertaining TO the
history Of ihe Church, local and general,
and npromptu "reminiscences will be given.
Lunch at the church diningroom at the
supper hour, and meeting for prayer and
praise in the evening
How much convenience and beauty.
and what artistic effects can be introduced
into modern dwelling, is successfully il.
luslrated in the new residence of W. f.
Sawtelle on Cortland avenue. The halls
above and below are not mere passage
ways but as attractive as any rooms Of the
house and large enough, the lower for a
reception room, the upper tor study, or
any pleasant purpose where ample light
and delightful outlook are no objection.
The stairs are not straight dizzy ascent,
but arrested midway by landing and an.
gle lighted by window of stained glass
which with the furnishing gives warm
tone 10 IN apartment which from its north
ern exposure, without such provision
might have been ordinarily cold and unin-
viting. There are also other arrangements
for outlook, ventilation and light TO get all
the good points possible, which cannot be
said Of houses built merely on the plan OF
having shelter within four square walls.

present as spectator. ltappears that the
meeting was mainly in the hands Of the

by partizan strife. 1t was on this account
that Mrs. Ellen j. Foster, the eloquent and
faithful worker Of the organization, with
drew from her official position at st. Louis
There is work TO be done in arousing tenn
perance sentiment, prohibition sentiment,
If You please, without spreading strength
to build up parties and thus divide the
very element which should be harmonized.
Money which might have been obtained
to help along the cause will be withheld
and votes for prohibition measures will be
repelled because Of the action Of the
National and local Unions. 1t Is quite
possible that this diversion of the Union
from its original plan 10 party organiza.
tion may serve in measure as a solution
Of the mystery why SO many OF the Unions
lack an interest in the work, and may
help to answer the question Of the Secre-
tary, where are the eleven r-[Oberlin

Some Of our exchanges publish the
names of subscribers who refuse the

paying arrearages; taking such conduct as
proof Of intentional fraud. There is in.
territorial fraud in the sneaking dishonesty
