A FrOstb burg Author.

The Young Churchman company, of
Milwaukee, Wis, has just published a
small book of IS pages, entitled 1.-THE
Historic Church for America" by Rev.
A. G. Haverstick, Episcopal rector of
this place. The text is well-written
and the subject matter evinces much
research and study in the preparation.
A church paper says of it:
The Rev. Mr.. Haverstick of the Diocese Of
Maryland has written brief pamphlet under
the above title. 1t will be found to be a
timely statement Of the claims of the
Church. Under 81 different headings salts
factory explanations are given in as few words
as possible. and always in helpful manner.
We append few of the chapter headings =:
"a Difference III Churches" being Good
out of Church." No Competition in Re-
ligion," advantages of Unity" "Church
Jurisdiction" THE British Church" THE
English Reformation" "The American
Church, y THE First Schism in England"
1.-THE Historic Liturgy" 1.-The Church Year."
'The Church Historic Through the Gen.
turies," etc.
The little work is so neatly arranged
and tastefully printed that Mr.. Haver-
stick may well be proud of its appear
ance as vel! as text.

SENII-LOCAL NEWS.
Living, though Dead.

The notice below was recently sent
out by local assembly in New York
to members of the Uknighted Order of
Laborious North Americans who do
not "attend meetin':"
To Our Misunderstanding, get Dead There
are dead members in our Order who will not
be buried. They pay their dues, draw their
benefits but remain dead to the Order.
The new members do not know them, the
hustlers have forgotten them. They do not
attend the free-feed nights.
They are dead, logically dead. but fraternal
law will not allow them to be buried You
cannot suspend, expel or drop them, and they
will not drop themselves, or even tumble to
the fact that they are dead. They could not
tell the secret work from a side of beef, and
yet, heaven preserve us, they are members in
good standing.
