HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

Alta Beeson is again at school.
No school was held on Monday as
it was a legal holiday.
The school flag was hoisted Mon
day as a commemoratiOn Of Wash

studying ceases.
Miss Sadie Lewis taught one of the
lower rooms for day last week, as
the regular teacher was sick.
Miss Lou Riley spent Saturday
and Sunday with relatives in Sibley.

sent to Oxford University, England,
asking about studies, entrance, ex-
aminations, etc.
Last week Russell Moberly put in
a day instructing rather than being
instructed. We predict he makes
quite pedagog.
The frequent SHOWS keep janitor
Hastings busy shoveling off the side
walks.
Miss Case spent Sunday at he1
home in St. Peter. .~

Na.jor Hilton Closing Address

For two weeks Major Geo. Hilton
has been conducting series of most
profitable and successful evangelistic
services in this community. AS re-
suit of his earnest presentation of the
gospel the whole town has felt a
spiritual and moral uplift. More than
one hundred persons have professed
their acceptance of Christ and g. pur-
pose to live the Christian life. On
Monday and Tuesday evenings the
Major gave two temperance addresses
in the 6. A. R. hall. The last eve
ming the hall was crowded to it's ut
most capacity to listen to a most stir
ring and interesting presentation Of
our government to the liquor traffic
through it's internal revenue depart
ment. The Major was for ten years
an officer in this department at
Washington and speaks with author
ity. He showed how every distiller
before he erects his buildings must
submit the plans with every detail for
government inspection and approval,
and every gallon of spirits produced
uuSt luultuldGc1y U6 ICoCcu duu
gauged by government gauger,
placed in government warehouse in
charge of government storekeeper;
and not a gallon can be sold until the
government has first been paid its
share of ninety cents a gallon what
ever the market price may be. No
one could but feel that ou, nation is
verify guilty of being in partnership
with the most iniquitious business on
the face of the earth.
At the close of the address the aud
ience showed its appreciation by
rousing applause, and unanimously
endorsed Rev. Bulls kindly words Of
commendation of the genial Majo1
and his benefoent labors in Worth
ington. ~ ILL.,

The following resolutions were
adopted at the regular meeting of
Worthlngton Lodge, No.2l9,on We'd

Whereas, it has pleased Almighty
God, the Supreme Ruler of the Uni

shall dearly miss our late BROTHER

help 1t. to spend less than two hours o
day in the open air. When he entered his
first situation he said to his employer
that he would be glad to have an hour
daily in the afternoon for a walk. II
granted, he would not ask for any holi-
day. or would make up otherwise for
the time SO spent. This was agreed to.
Sir Isaac took his walk daily, and to this
he used to say, he owed both health and
fortune.
But though in addition to fresh air he
believed in plenty Of fruit Sir Isaac was
not q vegetarian. 1t was not meat but
bread, from which he abstained. Like
Wesley, whose Natural Philosophy he
studied when boy, he saw in farina
ceous food a thing to be avoided by the
elderly. II take for my breakfast" he
said few years ago, zone baked apple,
one orange, twenty grapes and buiscuit
made from bananas. My midday meal
consists of about three ounces of beef
or mutton, with now and again half
cupful Of soup. If I take little fish
take so much less meat. For supper I
practically repeat my breakfast menu"
The orange was his favorite fruit. Wine
he eschewed; but on retiring from the
House Of Commons to Queen Anne's
mansions he had a tumbler of whisky
and hot water before going to bed. He
took no drink with his food, and this
obliged him to masticate we'll. He smok-
ed two or three cigars day, from which
he used to say that he derived both COM

A beggar accosted a gentleman and
whined I'm paralyzed in both me

grasp anythink with 'em. Could ye
spare me trif1e, mister?"
I'm deaf" replied the gentleman.
You'd better write down what you have

paper"
Deaf is 'e?" thought the beggar.
"Then e didn't ear aboutthe paralysis" J"
So he wrote down: cs
i've got wife an six children starv-
in at home, mister. I've been out Of
wurk fer six months, an ham In dref-
fel state of destertushun."
He handed the paper to the gentleman,
who read 1t and said:
II thought you said you were para
lyzed in both hands and couldn't grasp
anything; and yet you con write"
"Did-didn't yer say yer was deaf?'
stammered the beggar, who now really
did feel paralyzed.
"Yes, just to find out If you were an
imposter, which you are, as suspected"
replied the gentleman.
"Well of all the bloomin' fraunds, yer
the biggest" exclaimed the beggar.
"The hidea Of yer sayin' yer was deaf,

ST. JOHNS CHURCH
"Behold the Lord Stood Upon a
Wall"

At st. Johns Episcopal church the
rector, Rev. B. w. r. Tayler, preached
yesterday morning from Amos vii, Z:
Behold the Lord stood upon a wall
made by plumbline, with plumbline
in His hand. And the Lord said unto
me, Amos, what seest thou?' And
said plumbline. Then said the Lord
Behold, I will set plumbline in the
midst Of my people Israeli"
God is sometimes represented to us in
Holy Scripture in such forms and with
such attributes to make us comprehend
who and what God is. God is a spirit
We read that man was made in God S,
image and likeness. But this image and
likeness refer rather to the spiritual
likeness between God and man, so far
as mans spiritual nature can be de-
veloped in God-lilse direction. Tied
down as we are to gross and material
things in this world, it is difficult for US
to wrench our thoughts away from them
and fix our minds on an ideal state of
spiritual perfection. And the more gross
and carnal we are the less we are able
to do it. 1t IS necessary, therefore, in
speaking of God to employ language
which will convey some ideas to human
beings. and as man Is at the summit of
creation the figure of man is best en-
ployed to represent to us conceptions of
God. Otherwise we might fail to grasp
them.
When the prophet Amos saw, in a
vision, God standing upon wall holding
a plumbine in His hand, we must not
imag gine a flesh and blood person with a
long cord in his hand and piece of lead
at the end of it, but We must take the
figure as conveying to us a conception
which occurred to the prophet of the
Almighty Being proving and measuring
by the plummet of His eternal wisdom
the Gailings and shortcomings of His
people. If this were not so. if 1t were
a material plumbline which Amos saw,
we should doubtless have some museum

FOR SEVERAL HOURS
An Injured Man Lies Insensible at

Frank Sevanson, who works at grad

various bruises about the head a result
Of falling from a Southern Pacific rail-
road trestle on Saturday night Swan
son had gone from The Palms to Santa
Monica for days outing. When night
came he was having such a good time
that he missed his last car home. He
then started out to walk, intending to
follow the railroad track to The Palms
1t grew very dark and while Swanson
was crossing a trestle which spans a
ravine about twelve feet deep not far
from Santa Monica he lost his footing
and fell to the bottom, where he struck
npon his head and shoulder. He was
knocked insensible, and lay where he
had fallen until morning, when he was
found by some section hands, who picked
him up and brought him to this city and
placed him in the receiving hospital. Po-
lice Surgeon Hagan set the dislocated
member and dressed the wounds about
the mans head, which he found were
not serious.

The building up of the people in spirit
ual things is likened to the building Of
wall, which Gods plumbline Of meas
urement will test and prove. God is the
perfect architect. There is nothing in all
His wonderful creation, nothing in the
face and bosom Of nature, from the pol
ished surface of the butterfly's wing to
the myriad consultations sweeping
through infinite space, which does not
show a symmetry and a design that art
and invention can only feebly initiate.
Many have yet to learn the lesson that
if a thing is worth doing, it is worth do
ing well. Look at the miserable sham
work in the building Of houses. or in
deed in any department of labor. The
workman too often shirks his work, de-
ceives his employer and wastes his
money. The thought of obligation and
honor rarely enters nowadays into con-
sideration in transactions between en-
ployer and employees. The plumbline Of
Gods judgment is never taken into ac-
count, but its unerring measurements are
being noted in His book. and no one shall
escape its just decisions.
Israel doubtless thought Of God as
one who at times betook Himself away
from them, ard during His absence it
did not matter much what they did,
While many Christians would doubtless
scoff at such an idea, yet they neverthe-
less act upon that principle. The idea
that God is not looking Is responsible for
many a sinful and wicked act of life.
God needs no material plumblne, for
His eye sees through every defect Of
character and into every wicked trans
action in life. He knows every sin, ev-
cry wrong-doing, every piece Of wicked
infamy at the very moment Of its oc-
currence.
Let us build such lives of noble char
acter and purpose as may make US
worthy Of His approval and well done"
Let US ask Him to supply what is lack
ing in us, to cleanse what is impure, to
remedy what is defective, to heal what
is unwholesome, to make clear to us His
own will, and at last to lead us into life
everlasting.
