INSTRUCTION IN CITIZENSHIP.
A Course of Civics Under the Univers
ity Extension Society.


ity Extension Society.
The Society for the Extension of Uniyer-
sity Teaching, says the Philadelphia Times,
encouraged by its successful summer meet
ing. and urged on to further effort by the
increasing demand for popular instruction,
is about to inaugurate an entirely new de-
parture.
The primary object of the rev work is
to popularize the study of civics. A party
of gentlemen. whose benevolence runs to
the practical and political side. have been
DESTROYS that the actual process of gov
eminent in the United States should be
more tntelliSently known among the people
of Philadelphia. TO accomplish this they
have contributed a fund to be used in Civ
ing instruction on the subject to those who
will appreciate and use the knowledge
This fund has been put into the hands OF
the United Extension officials and the
means or 1t application left to their discre-
ton.
The plan as now held proposes TO or
ganiZe at least one class in each ward The
lecturer fees have been reduced to permit
OF small class having all the advantages
OF larger one, and course OF lectures
may be obtained for SIS. which is the mini
mum fee. For classes of over twenty-five
members. each individual will paw a fee
of SO Is reached For classes of over sew
enty-five the fee will be reduced proper
uonateiy. The courses will in most cases
include ten lectures instead of six as in
the majority of the extension centers
The classes have also the additional ad-
vantage OF meeting whenever and wherever
the members desire making the lectures
accessible from any special locality. 1t is
expected that they will be held In school
houses. church parlors. private dwellings
or halls, as members may elect. There will
be no such formal organization as In the
centers. and examinations at the end OF
the course are purely optional.
The plan outlined has been presented
first to the teachers of the public schools
as it is expected that from their ranks the
nuclei for the classes will come. So far
they are nanifeSting great interest in the
proposition. and at least half the princi-
pals of schools have desired that the mat
ter be formally presented to their teachers
by the Extension Society.
The text book for the general work will
be Fiske's civil Government of the United
States" which will be the basis for all ex-
aminations. with Bryce's American Com
rnonwealth' as supplementary and other
works as references.

AN OLD LUTHERAN CHURCH
Said to BE the Oldest Monument OF
American Lutheran

American Luthera nism.
On Tuesday last the congregation of the
Evangelical Lutheran Church, commonly
known as the "Trappe" Church, ce,e-
brated its sesQui-centennial. commemorative
of the fist service held within the walls of
the old church. More than usual interest
conferred In this celebration, IS the quaint
stone church by the roadside, with it's odd
gabled hip roof and curious little iron
vanes. is the Oldest monument of Lutheran
ism In America, and one of the few histor-
ical relics OF the provincial period, which is
still unaitered and in its primitive condi-
ton.
The church is situated in a small village
In Upper Providence township, Montgomery
county. Pa. on the Reading pike, which,
prior to the advent of steam, was one of
the busiest and most freQuented highways
IN the state. The village is nine miles from
Norristown. the county seat, and twenty
Six miles from Philadelphia. 1t can be best
reached by the Perkiomen railroad Of the
Reading system by way of Colegeville sta
ton, the ''Trappe being about a mile
further west on the turnpike
Inc Trappe Church. on account Of its
quaint picturesqueness, has become one of
the best-known landmarks in Pennsylvania
and has been frequently visited by the
artist. antiquary and historical student, as
II offers facilities for study not found else
where. That the poet has not neglected
the old sanctuary Is shown by the beautiful
poem. descriptive of the church. incorporat-
ed by LOngfellow in his Poems and
Places"
The history of this church dates back to
the first days of Patriarch Muhlenbergs
ministrations in Pennsylvania. Here he
commenced to labor three days after his
arrival In Pennsylvania, November %, 1912,
by holding preaching service in barn.
Continuing in his efforts he collected to-
gether the members of the faith. some fifty

Of country, and organized them into a con-
gregation. He finally built this church, and
thereby established the Lutheran Church in
the Province of Pennsylvania.

THE VAN ALIEN APPOINTMENT,
Ex-Secrefary Whitney Denies That
Any BarEain Was Made.

Mr. VIM G. Whitney of New York. who
had been charged with promising the ItaI-
Ian mission to ]. j. Van Allen in return for
*o.VO contribution to the democratic
campaign fund. has sent a letter to the
editor of the New York World denying the
charges.
He saysf The allegation IL specific
enough. and imputes to me a most dishon-
orable transaction. What is the truth?
have had nothing to do with Mr. Van
Aliens candidacy. except what Is contained
in the following communication to the
President With the President personally
subject"
The letter to the President, which IA
dated June %. and refers to an interview in
the New York Sun of June 8. is inclosed
The letter expressly assures the Presider Z
that Mr.. Van Allen is fitted for the Office
but that there Is no obligation to appoint
HIM Mr.. Whitney dtsasrees with Mr.. Hor-
ace White. who thought that the $4,000
contribution should be returned to Mr. Van
Allen and the appointment given TO some
one else. Mr.. Whitney says: Il think the
man should lose both office and money and
be forever barred from society Such, L
think, would be Mr.. Van Aliens opinion. IL
IL can be gathered from a letter which he
wrote at about the time spoken of by Mr.
White. and in which he takes what / con-
slider the more correct view. 1t was called
out by a letter from friend who had
heard of the White syndicate"
Dir. Van Allen says in this letter, which
In dated May IL:
Il can only say that these charges that
stated / was TO have a diplomatic position
in exchange for money subscribed by me
for political. purposes are utterly false. and
i DEFY any one to prove that have written
spoken or hinted at one word indicating in
any way such an agreement i should be
a combination OF knave. fool and liar To
have made such statement. for there was
absolutely no understanding between N.Y.
self and any one that / should have any

In conclusion. Mr.. Whitney says:

Of the liberty bell committee having decided
to give the play in honor Of the bell. The
committee, with Miss Mary Desha in the

ing in the rooms of the Daughters of the
Revolution Monday afternoon at which
this was determined upon, and Miss Desha
said she had taken 1t upon herself to invite

esses. They had kindly assented and had
offered to ask the other cabinet ladies to
interest themselves in the movement Mrs

suggestion of the al fresco" performance
and had offered to do everything in her
power to make it memorable event in

which gave the original production. Mr.
Coward, however, will himself be one Of
the performers and sing the solo numbers
With a view of enhancing the enjoyment

President Charles F. Choate caused some
thing of sensation at a meeting of the
Old Colony railroad stockholders in Bos-
ton the other day by the announcement that
since the printing and distribution of the
annual report a discrepancy has been dis
covered in the accounts Of the treasurer
John w. Washburn.
According to the treasurer's report there
was S9S. 900 IN cash in the treasury. 1t wss
found. however. that securities. stocks and
bonds purchased with the company's money
represented a part of this cash. The pUr-
chase was unauthorized. The treasurer's
office has been vacated and the treasurer has
made an assignment of all his outside prop
erty for the benefit of the corporation.
