HAVING gwen live naval hero tre-
mendous ovation. it is now proposed to
tender a national reception to a dead
naval hero and build monument to his
memory. After much search the rest
ing place of the remains of John Paul
Jones have been found. and tits suggested
that they be removed to this nation and
becomingly inferred. Jones was one Of
the greatest naval fighters and no doubt
naturally advanced the cause of the
struggling young republic. He was a
fighter at a time when personal courage
of the hand to hand order was demanded
and his record was brilliant. 1t is emil
nently proper that his remains should
rest in the soil of the nation which he
fought so valiantly to establish.

say at recent discussion in that city.
She said: "In too many colleges girls
are in the habit of doing their mending
and darning on the Sabbath. They even
give card parties on that day. which they
look upon as time for gatherings and
recreation.
MANY girls who enter college with a
firm Christian foundation lose it in their
first year. Girls have told me that their
vacations we're times of agony from fear
their parents would find out they had
grown to be girls without belief.
"In many OF the colleges the students
all live in boarding houses in the towns.

boarding house without any chaperon.

girls have proper chaperon. We ask
