The man who claims that he is kept
out of the church by the hypocrites in
1t, doesn't object to them anywhere,
else. Business is full of them, and yet
II be sees chance to make money
among them, he will not stop for that
The theatre is full of them. and yet he
will go there and pay out his money
TO sec them. Society is full of them.
and yet he never thinks of becoming a
hermit. Married life is full of them.
but that doesn't make him remain a
bachelor. Perdition is made up of
them, aud yet he is not doing a thing
to keep from going there. He would
have you think he is trying TO avoid
the society of hypocrites, aud yet he
takes not single step toward the
only place where no hypocrite can go
and by his conduct proves that he him
self IS The biggest kind OF hypocrite

SEDAN CELEBRATION ENDED.

The Programme Carried Out Yester-
day in Spite of the Weather.
The weather yesterday interfered great
ly with the last day of the Sedan cele-
bration. The crowd at the park in the
afternoon was not near SO great as would
have been the case had the weather out
look been more promising.
The programme was carried out, how
ever. There We're various games for the
ladies and children and prizes were award
ed the successful contestants The greasy
pole contest afforded great amusement
for the crowd. but nobody was able to
climb it. The most interesting event of
the day was a wheelbarrow race between
Mr.. j. II. Furber and Mr.. Julius Kauf
man. To the surprise of the crowd Mr..
kaufman won in a canter. There was a
fair crowd on hand at night. The living
pictures were repeated and there was
dancing and other amusements.
Altogether the Sedan celebration has
been quite successful although the at
tendance has not been as great as was
expected, due partly to the weather and
partly to events which could not have
been foreseen
