THE FIFTH'S DRILL
Owing to the crowded condition OF this

10 give d technical criticism OI the FiItn's

MuchingeiimIy was consequently manifested
by the ma Jor commanding Ia getting his

when the column was IIna4y formed ths
distance between the color company and

tons, tneurIn was as near perfect as the
confined space would permit OF, and AajoI
Suess clearly demonstrated that the Fifth
can put up a drill second 10 none ID ths

been available in which to drIH for so
long Il time, is taken into consideration,
the progress OF the Fifth IS worthy OF
the highest commendation.
The merit or a batJaHOn's work is
possibly more clearly demonstrated by tha
manner in which IL puts up parade than
i'll anything else. or the Fifth on dress

thing TO be said, and that IS this: The

Baby's Clothing.

Many mothers nowadays i'll providing
the first clothes for their babies prefer
knitted bands to the old-fashioncd flannel
bands made with a hem, as they are more
comfortable and more ca silly adjusted.
The bands come in entire wool and in silk
and wool mixed, with and without shoul-
der straps. Ready-made bands of plain
flannel cost from 10 to 25 cents each. The
knitted bands cost from 80 cents to 81 80.

made or made at home, should open the

a number OF feminine brain workers have
come 10 the conclusion that they can do
better work by going without breakfast,

Synopsis of remarks made by DR.. George

ally speak OF its glories and the truths the
old time had. Spiritualism points to the
future and speaks OF the growing intelli-
gence ofthema Sses. We are today bestrode
and ridden by that "old man OF the past
known as theology. He esits upon our shoul-
ders and it is almost impossible to shake
him off. The time is not far distant, how
ever, when we shall learn how to throw
him off from our shoulders, and then we
shall stand erect in the dignity of our man
hood and wOma nhood.
] sometimes fear that we have placed
too high value upon the phenomena con-
nected with Spiritualism. Have we not
cried out too much for outward wonders
and signs? Some Of us have stood out all
night looking into the heavens for signs.
We are all spirits here in the material body
Just as much as we will be when out OF
it. Idon't want to be misunderstood in my
statements in this direction. ] Relieve in
phenomenal spiritualism. ] believe in its
importance and in it's value. But after We
are convinced Of the truth of spIitualiSm
we should utilize it as stepping stone
to something higher. 1t should not hold
us down, but should lift US up into the
atmosphere of our spiritual philosophy.
Some of us are asleep. We need the sound
of trumpet to awaken US from our
lethargy. Spiritualists should be banded
together to fight sectarianism in every
form throughout the length and breadth
Of our country. tApplause).
We should, Oh being convinced. make
room for the great army of people who
have not witnessed such signs and move
on to other fields of labor. Spirituali-
zaton is of more value TO the world than
naturalization. (Applause)
Seek for rest in that activity born OF true
spiritual unfOldment that brings peace and
love to all humanity, and spiritualism will
continue to live, blessing all humanity so
long as hope burns upon the altar OF the
soul and love fans its fires. with the frag-
rant breeZes Of heaven. 1t is as eternal
as God and fruitful in joyous blessings as
nature itself, and will remain when all
creeds are forgotten and until that day
when society, boIu1by the indissoluble ties
OF friendship and love, bows before the
altar OF common human nity.
