COMMUNICATED

We attended services at Grace Baptist
Church on Sunday last, and were much
reminded OF the good old days at the
Delaware Avenue Church. Many of the
faces present were familiar ones at the
latter church in Its palmy days The
singing was of high order, aud the
speaker, the Rev. A. A, DeLarme, who is
the regular supply, held the audience
spell-hound during his scholarly dis
course; in fact there was much both In
the doctrine and manner OF speaking that
reminded one Of Mr.. Haldemau's pulpit
oratory-iRDoring manuscript or notes
and speaking with great rapidity, while
every word icll with distinctive clearness
from his lips. 1t has seldom been our
privilege to listen to such soul-iDspiring
eloquenee OF the gospel. Surely the
church Is fortunate In having Mr.. de-
Larme TO minister TO them, and we be-
speak Tor them great spiritual growth
under him. SELDOM.

An Unusually Short Name.

a funny fact came to light recent
ly at the registration of the birth of
a child. The happy father was
asked the maiden name of his wife,
to which he answered:
"Rose b."
"Well, how do you spell it? Bee,
By, or Bey, or how?"
"Just simply b."
"That cannot be. B is only an
initial, not a name"
at is all the name my wife ever
had until she married me. Neither
she nor her family have ever had
any other name than just B, neither
more nor less"
They could hardly have had less,
and an examination of the record
showed that they had really never
had more. Beyond doubt the B
family bears the shortest name in
France, perhaps IN the world. Only
one other name Of equal brevity
is known, and that is the name of Il
place. About fifteen miles from
Peronne on the Ham line, there is "A
commune known as Y. 1t has some
two hundred inhabitants. The or
IGN of the name of Y is unknown,
and it would be curious to investi
gate the origin Of the potronymic
o the B family.
