The sermon of Rev. Northrup OF
the Methodist church on Sunday
evening on the subject of "Better
Citizenship" is universally com
meuded for the careful thought and
liberality which it showed. The SER
mon was in no sense sensational and
was therefore all the more effective
in stirring up thought and discussion
along the line which the pastor
talked.

how apparently profitable the dairy

might call attention to the fact that
the receipts of one of the patrons of

The Flow of Soul

At this Juncture the direction of af-
fairs was turned over to Toastmaster
James II. Torrey and for two hours
the diners were treated to flow OF
wit and wisdom, that has. possibly,
never been excelled at a previous din
ner of its kind given in Scranton.
In assuming the position of toast
master Mr.. Torrey said that it was
hardly conceivable that upon this night
a gathering of English speaking men
could be held without the thought of
the assemblage centering on the gra-
cious woman lying at the point of
death at Osborne House and he pro.
posed a silent toast to her health, IL
alive; to her eternal happiness, If dead.
The toast was drank rising.
He then read regrets from Judge II.
NJ. Edwards, who is i'll with the grip,
and Senator Boies Penrose, who was,
as stated above, unexpectedly detained
in Washington.
That the banquet committee was
wise in it's choice of a toastmaster for
such a momentous occasion will be
readily attested by those who enjoyed
Mr.. Torrey's ready wit and bright hu-
NOR. His introduction of the speakers
and the fund of fitting stories with
which he embellished the short
speeches, with which he interlarded
the responses were provocative of the
heartiest bursts of applause and laugh
ter. One story he told to illustrate q
certain recent speakeasy case will un-
doubtedly be repeated very generally
today. 1t was the hit of the evening.

more you grow, the more taxes you
VIII pay. Go on and multiply--rest
assured you will not escape us.
The great regret IL that PennsYl-
vania is so immense and diversified
that her people are not acquainted with
each other. Interests here are not
known of elsewhere. Interests else
where are unknown to you. Pittsburg
Is the wonder city of the world. In the
territory which 1t covers is embraced
more invested capital, more tonnage
OF products sent out, more business
activity than in any like area in the
world. This Is not meant as an in
vidious distinction. Far from one. I
only want to pull few tail feathers
out of Scranton's pride. You are not
the whole 1t. There are others.
Remember we are all Pennsylva-
mans, and that we should be proud Of
our state. No like acreage on the face
OF the earth can come within long dis
tance telephone reach of us. In the
future let us feel that whether we are
first, second or third d-class cities, we
are Pennsylvanians and not represen-
tatives of any particular locality"

" Our Nation. h"

Judge Orlady's response to the toast,
Our Nation" while impromptu. was
a very entertaining effort. Judge Or
ady is an orator in every sense of
he word: he has a remarkable COM
nand of elegant language; his ideas
alrly crowd upon one another and his
wit is of the dgnified and scholarly
kind that makes an impression which
is deep and lasting
Pulling tail feathers out of Scran-
toms pride" to use one of his own
expressions, best characterzes the
theme of his discourse. His only
reference to the toast, "Our Nation, Z"
was a passing one, introduced in a
story he told to excuse his presump-
tion" in attempting to substitute for
so great man as Senator Penrose.
Sarcasm of rich variety shredded the
whole woof of the judges talk.

CRANTON'S premier civic body,
the board of trade. last night
had the biggest celebration In
its history. The occasion. pri-
marily, was the twenty ninth
anniversary OF the boards organ
ization. but what made 1t especially
momentous was that Vt took on in no
small degree the nature of a commem-
Grafton Of the city's new achievement,
the attaining of a growth which took
II out OF the companionship OF Cory,
Lancaster, Pittston, Hazleton, Wilkes
Barre and other villages masquerading
as cities and put II in a class with the
great and thriving Industrial Pitts
burg Allegheny
To help celebrate the auspicious oc-
casion the board invited the attend
ance of a number Of the most distin-
guished men of the commonwealth,
and the responses contained a crafty
ing majority of acceptance. Governor
William A. Stone, the judges of the
Superior court, the local judiciary, At
torney General Henry w. Palmer, OF
Wilkes Barre, and Mayor James Moir
were among those who accepted and
were present. Senator Boies Penrose,
who also had accepted, telegraphed
yesterday morning that owing to the
debate on ship subsidy bill he could
not get away from Washington. The
board was much disappointed not to
have him with them. Judge George b.
Orlady, of the Superior court, was sub
stituted for Senator Penrose to re-
spond to the toast 1.-THE Nation
The celebration was held in the
boards beautiful assembly room on
the eighth floor Of the board of trade
building. Dinner was enjoyed at 73O
o'clock. At it's conclusion, brief busi-
ness meeting was held and this being
over the speechmaking was proceeded
with
