THE MIDDLEroNs' INDICTMENT
Justice Macarthur sustains It Against
the Motion to Quash.

Justice Macarthur sustnins IL Against
the Motion TO Quash.
The argument on the motion to quash
the indictment in the case Of Daniel w.
Middleton and Samuel E. Middleton,
charged with embezzloment, was resumed
before Justice Macarthur in the crimi-
nal court yesterday, District Attorney
Worthington appearing for the govern
mont and MesSrs. Dsvidge and Kent for
defendants. The motion was based on
grounds Of the improper joinder Of dis
tinct and independent offenses in the DIFF
ferent counts of the indictment; because
the alleged agency or employment was
not set out so az to show it constituted
any ofiense on the part Of the defendants
under the statute, and for sundry good
and sufficient reasons appearing on the
face of the indictment.
At the close of the argument Justice
Macarthur said that he thought the in
diotment followed the statute, and he
should overrule the motion to quash. He
also said that the points raised on the in
dictment. while not good in pleading,
might prove good as developed by testi-
mony. aud the argument to which he had
listened became applicable and the points
be sustained.

Ridicule.

Take heed that We offend not of these little
ones.
One day last week, little boy, with
a white face and great brown eyes
moist with tears, burst into my sitting
room, enchanting, in n manner quite
unlike his usual way of speaking,
"Mamma, | don't like my new teacher
one bit She's the worst teacher ever
saw. Need go to school any more p
After quieting the child, | found
that his sensitive little heart had been
wounded past all healing, apparently
by few careless words of ridicule. 1t
seemed to me that the pale little face,
which was always noticeable among
his sturdy mates in the schOOl-ToOm
told its own story, and would have
naturally appealed to wOman's sym
pathy; whereas, the cruel words, which
"made all the school laugh" rs the
child said, were spoken regarding his
being kept at home the previous day
on account of the rain His first year
IN school was JOY and delight under
kind and loving teacher. Now his
school life is an almost intOlerable
burden and, as daily hang tile
school bag over the slender shoulders,
and kiss him goodbye, a great pity
wells up from my heart for the little
one who will live the best part of his
day in an atmosphere without its oXy-
gen of sympathy, all essential to its
power for good.
Ridicule is IA powerful weapon, as we
all know, whether flung from the point
of IL pen or pencil, or thrown from a
thoughtless tongue. And, if strong
men sometimes fail under it, what can
we expect of IL little child, exposed to
its cruel shafts = Congregationalist.

Both Born on Holidays.

Jacob Hood of Lynnfeld was born
on Christmas, 1891, aud his wife, So
phia (Needham) Hood, on New Years
1897. The aged couple Thursday OBJ
served the SSth anniversary of Mrs.
Hoods birth. Although % years of
age Mr.. Hood is in full possession of
all his faculties, save being little
hard of hearing. Mrs. Hood possesses
all her faculties. A number of neigh
bOrs and friends called on the old peO-
pie Thursday. They were married in
June, 1920, and have had seven chill
dren, five of whom are living. They
have also about thirty grandchildren
and nine great grandchildren. Mr..
Hood was for many years a teacher in
the East school, Salem. He had about
I4O boys in his school, and kept school
from o'clock till 5, taking the girls
from / to /. This was from 1922 to
1885. From 1885 to 1850 Mr.. Hood
taught evening singing school. He
has some fine specimens of the PEN
manship of his old pupils. He made
the quill pens himself. A number of
presents were sent by friends who
could not be present.

Seeking to Save.

God at the first, came down tn create;
to NEEDLE with creation, God came
down To Sdre. This is brought out i'll
the first words uttered by the Lord
God after mans fall. "And the Lord
God called unto Adam and said unto
him, where art thou ?" This question
proved two things. 1t proved that
man was lost, aud that God had come
to seek 1t proved mans sin and Cod
grace. "Where art thou ?" Amazing
faithfulness Amazing grace Man was
lost but God had come down to look
for him to bring him out of his hid
ing place behind the trees of the gar
den, in order that, in the happy con-
fidence of faith, he might find Il hid
ing place in Himself. TO create man
out of the dust of the ground was
pOiCer but to seek man III his lost es-
tate, was grace. But who can utter all
that is wrapped up in the idea of Gods
being seeker? God seeking sin
nerP What could the Blessed One
have seen in man To lead Him to seek
for him Just what the shepherd saw
in the lost sheep or what the woman
saw in the lost piece of silver or what
the father saw in the lost son. The
sinner is valuable to God but why he
should be 50, eternity alone will I'M
fold &C.. Ii. Mcintosh.

and wantonly drink that which makes
men sots. Not one drunkard in a mill
ion ever intended to become one. He
only meant to "eDjoy himself" and
while he was doing it the viper stung
him. Solomun's advice is to let the
cup of serpents alone. He who never
drinks can never become drunkard.
Ii il strange too, that in spite of all
the miseries endured 10y drunkards'
wives, so many young women are
willing to marry young men who take
a social glass. Such foolish wives
have themselves to blame for their
misery when their husbands break
their hearts by hard drinking. They
ought to have known that the sting of
the serpent in the cup would bring
woe on the family. A wise woman
will never join her hand in marriage
to the hand which holds glass of
liquor.
II every young woman would take
this sensible stand, it would soon com
pei young men to become teetotalers
or remain bachelors Another strange
thing is, that fathers will put wine on
their own tables, when the Bible says
there is deadly viper i'll the bottle.
If the boys become sOts the father is
to blame for it, ! would as soon take
my boy into IA house with smallpox, as
to set before him glass of wine. How
strange is it too, that Christians do no
more to break up these nests of adders
Many of our churches do not even
pray for the drunkard or the temper
ance reform. In closing, let me beg
every young man never to touch the
cup in which the serpent is cOiled. Re
member these awful lines which Il
genius cut with diamond on his own
wine-glass:
within this cup Destruction rides,
And in its depth doth Ruin swim;
Around its foam PerdtioD gdes
And Death is dancing on it's brim-"
