Bauade of the Primrose Way.

Life, through the arc of a century
Cronies two We have faced the road
Cheek by jowl since the first young day
When the primrose path before us
glowed;
Mind you the wonders the vista showed ?
Cloth of gold where the sunlight lay
Mind you the cowslip-bails we slowed
Glinting guerdons of Primrose Way
Life. you're faithful yotary,
Years and a day to keep the code:
Yours was rare knight-errantry,
For hobble-de-hoy my fancy rode.
But then the cowslip crop We sowedi
Crowfoot burrows we reap today;
Carols have changed to palinode.
And lost forever is Primrose Way.

Cured in the evening. The pulpit was
draped with large American flag. while
the platform was banked with palms.
Mr.. Naylor introduced Hon. j. d. Tayler,
of Ohio, who presided over the proceed
ings. Congressman Tayler addressed the
boys and girls of the society in a happy
vein. He said good people, as a rule, do
not die young. and impressed on his hear
ers the benefits which would accrue to
them should they become Christian men
and women.

lives will be successful your hopes
brighter and your future grander. Live
every day as you do on Sunday. These
Sunday Christians soon wither and decay,
like a tomato vine. You will find il is u
great deal easier to do right than it is to

After a solo by Mr.. Emil G. Snyder, the
presiding officer introduced Hon. William
Il. Andrews, an ex-Representative from

of the Treasury. Mr.. Andrews prefaced
his remarks by quoting that stirring
Methodist hymn. Tell Me the Old, Old
Story" He spoke Of the great work be-
ing done by missionary societies and their
true place in the plan of universal saliva
ton. and described the warfare of right
against wrong. This great mission work
was instituted centuries ago by Jesus
Christ. who was the greatest of all mis-
siouaries.
He referred eloquently to the mission
work OF Martin Luther. John Wesley and
John Knox, and bade the Mckendree So

A QUESTION FOR CHRISTIANS.
DR. Townsend Sees 1t i'm the Maine
CataSt rODhe.

Rev. DR. l. 7. Townsend, of Baltimore.
preached at Metropolitan NJ. L. Church
last evening taking for his text the ev-
er vatchful and divine care of God over
His people. In his discourse the speaker
commented on the Maine disaster as fol-
lows:
1T may not be out of place in the light
Of this lesson. especially in the light of
the closing passage of it, to bring be-
fore our minds afresh the great and dire
fui disaster that during the past week has
befallen the nation.
''If the passages before us teach any
cidents in this world-that is. no acci-
dents such as exclude ruling and over
ruling presence of the infinite God and
Father of all.
THE Inference from these passages is
that there is nothing, however great or
small that can take place without God $
permission, and that fewer things than
we commonly suppose take place with
out His ordering.
Indeed, our practical theology would
better be reduced to these four points:
First. God knows; second. God is good;
third. God could have prevented anything
everything that takes place. and permits
it for His glory and our good.
But why He allows disasters and why
He allowed the destruction of our noble
warshp and the untimely death of so
MANY of our brave sons of the sea may
not be made clear to us just yet.
1T would not be surprising. however,
when the smoke has cleared away lit
tie more, If we shall be able to see that
the loss of that vessel is one of the inn
portant links in a chain of events that is
TO lead to Gods solution of the interna-
tional complicat tions that have been dis
turbing the thoughts of our people.
when Gods purpose is to be accom-
plished through war or peace is at pres
one thing is certain-TIis purpose is to be
accomplished.
''The only compensation we can yet see
growing out of the wreck of the Maine is
that our loss has evoked from the great
heart of the nations of the earth express
sions of sympathy such as almost no 9TH
er event has called forth since the
United States of America became a free
and independent people.
.In the interests of righteousness, per-
haps, our Government could take for
ward step today more safely than at any
time since the conflict began in the ISL
and of Cuba At all events the question.
What does God mean by permitting the
destruction of these millions of property
and these hundreds of lives? is a question

entering into negotiations with Sir
Julian Pauncefote, the British am

ern school book firms. These firms
have been chafing under the exemption
provision of the present law, and are
bending every energy toward tho &C.
complement of their purpose to have
the present law either repealed or
greatly modified 50 as to permit them
to control all the cities of the state.
The HERALD is uncompromisingly
against the extension of the provisions
of this law so as to cover FL Paso. It
is notorious that in nearly every state
of the union where state school text
book law is on the books, 1t is there for
the direct benefit Of the immensely
wealthy eastern school book manufac-
turers, and in direct antagonism to the
best interests of the schools.
The record of such legislation, in the
south and west particularly, has been
q shameful record of corruption and of
fraud, perpetrated at the expense of
the schools, whose we'll being should
be first with every good citizen. In the
case of this state it has been demon =
strated over and over that the selec-
tions of books by the state text book
to say the least.
The books in many cases, although
they bear the imprint of we'll known
firms, are valueIess, and it is wrong to
compel self respecting teachers and
pupils to use them. More than once
the board has secured the advice of an
advisory committee, cOmpetent, per-
haps, to pass upon the books, and then
It has turned around and selected the
worst out of six or seven reported up
on.
In fact 1t Is almost q common scan-
dal, and this city has had good reason
to rejoice that it has been exempt from
the operation of the law. The people
who have the welfare of the schools at
heart should fight this proposed amend
ment to the bitter end

It ia expected that Great Britain will

guarantees for the absolute neutrality

hitting even her men of war to claim
