FAR-SEEING BACHELOR.
AND HOW HE EARNED A LARGE FEE

Three popular young men of the town gathered at local store, early Saturday evening. Two of the trio decided to call on some Mt Pleasant young ladies, and wanted the third, an obliging bachelor, to carry them up. He finally consented on being of fered 7c, and calmly went out to the post where stood the faithful steed be- longing to the father of one of the young men. He carried them to Mt Pleasant and when near their deSti- nation refused to go further unless he was paid extra. This the boys refused to do. It appears that the bachelor did not return to the Street with the borrowed horse till about 10 p. m., and so the enraged owners were obliged to walk to their home. About II p. m., their eldest son started out to find the horse and found it hitched in front of a local store. He then started for Mt Pleasant to find the other two young men, who were having happy time. Rushing into the house he informed the young men that the horse had run away and that it would cost them each $14. 75 to settle the bill. But the man who evidently came out ahead of the game is the far-seeing bachelor who borrowed neighbours rig and won a 7c fee.

Rev o. O. Wright preached at Trinity church on Sunday morning in exchange with Rector Linsley, giving an interesting discourse from the text 1st Cor. 15:19. R. ": "If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most pitiable."
 The preacher in opening raised an argument in order to effectively an swer it. If there is no hereafter and the grave is the end of all, how foolish we are to give up pleasures to follow these myths which may originate in our disordered minds Why should we deny ourselves any pleasure if this life ends all? If this life is all we are to look forward to what mistake it is to make our conduct secondary to an ideal.
 In spite of mans unbelief the in- stinct of life beyond is in every mans bosom If there is no God where do we get the power to conceive such things. If we reason from nature everything has it's place. The earth is adapted to the support of life. But as we study nature, wonderful as it is, we find it does not exist for itself. It stands in relation to higher form of life. The beasts.of the field and fish could not exist were it not for the | lOWcI Ol FCSCCdUIOH. II lcH UI1C lowest strata of nature to the highest, every order is a prophecy of some thing higher.
 Is not this life prophecy of some thing higher and better? Eyes are not given where light is not needed. Truth and reasoning power are not found in creatures living by natural senses alone. If there is no God what shall the standard of life be? The best and fairest things in this world are born of self-sacritice and sorrow. If this life ends all why should we not go to our grave when me become weary of life or discouraged? The religious instinct in men is of itself prophecy of the future life. Why should not the ex- perience of the spiritual man be as real as our own temporal experiences: See what the life in the resurrection has induced men to do. The hope ot eternal life is the most inspiring thought for man. It is the key which unlocks the mystery of our existance. It is the key which solves the problem of life, which otherwise must be rid. dle. Without this hope we fall to the level of the beasts which perish.

L. d. S Notes


There are 1927 members of the
Mormon church in Bear Lake stake.
Bishop Lewis has been released
from his office in Georgetown and
w. w. Richards appointed il his
stead. Sam Z. Hymas has been
chosen as bishop for the new stake
of Sharon, at North Liberty.
AT recent session Of the Bear
Lake conference at Paris, Apostle
Teasdale said among other things:
"And who was the presiding
authority in the Twelve" The
oldest ordained Of the Apost les.
And who is he? Bro. Joseph +.
Smith; bat our beloved president
wanted his services in the First
Presidency, so that he is out Of the
Quorum; but when the President
dies, he Will take his position as
president of the Quorum Of
Apostles.
Further along in his discourse he
said:
"Pay your tithes and offerings,
and keep out Of debt; that rs the
word of the Lord unto the people.
We have made two failures as
people, and we want to look 10 it
that we don't want to make another
failure. We made one failure when
we rejected the law Of conservation.
Our enemies said, |'you won't con-
secrate for old Joe Smith, and we
will make you consecrate for us. =
And they came upon the people and
turned them out Of their homes and
robbed them and plundercd them.
Another failure was when the Lord
revealed unto us the law Of celestial
marriage. But very small per
centage of the people honorcd that
law, and the result was that our
enemies came upon us and made it
impossible for US to longer pract ice
1t, and we were deprived Of the
blessings of increased glorics as d
result of an obedience to that law"

Lunar ~
Photography

A new atlas of the moon is being
prepared for publication by Professor
w. H. Pickering, of the Harvard OBJ
~servatory, from material obtained dur
ing the past season by means of the
136-foot telescope at the observatory's
temporary astronomical station in
Jamaica. Although observations were
interrupted by the approach of the
rainy season in May the undertaking
is sufficiently advanced to be complet-
ed by midsummer, and Professor
Pickering has already brought to Cam
bridge a full set of the photographs
necessary for the proposed publica-
ton. The apparatus is the long ''hor-
izontal telescope" already described
in the Herald, built ON the principle of
rejecting the rays from the object hor-
Mentally through a fixed lens. The
method permits of an extremely long
focus and secures a much larger pic
ture than Is possible where the tube
of the telescope is pointed at the OBJ
ject. The arrangement is also an ex-
tremely economical one, temporary
sheds serving all the purposes of the
old-time tube, though the instrumental
parts are very expensive. 1t is also
the only known method oe making
large instrumental powers readily
portable. The mirrors, lenses and ma
chinery of the telescope were all taken
from Cambridge early in October, but
nearly three months were spent in the
work Of getting ready, so that it was
not until the morning of the first day
of the new century, a few minutes after
midnight, that the first observations
were made, and several days later be-
fore satisfactory photographs were OBJ
tanned. A 12-inch lens is used with a
stop" reducing it to a six-inches di-
ameter, for the Photographic work, and
exposures of eight minutes are made
for the quick plates and of a minute,
and a half for the slow plates, the
apparent inconsistency in the times of
exposure being due to the fact that the
more sensitive plates are used just
after the lunar sunrise or before the
lunar sunset, when but little light is
obtainable from the crescent of the
moon. While the lunar geography is
being studied at Jamaica, it appears
that the local geography is not with
out it's peculiar problems. The tenn

porary station is in a lonely region
surrounded by forests with but one
other house in sight. AS it sometimes
happens that no rain falls during a
whole month the water supply is a Sc
rious consideration. Rain water Is
collected on cement platforms called
barbecues, which are built primarily
for the drying of coffee and the pi-
mento berries which provide the ALL
spice of commerce. The barbecue at
the observatory is something like 40
that the rainfall can be conducted to
a cement tank for storage. However,
IN the mountains the dew is exceed
1ngly heavy, and as the observatory
buildings are rooted with galvanized
iron, the Harvard party undertook by
means of cutters to gather the nightly
fall for drinking purposes. Sometimes
two or three gallons were collected In
a night. At present, of course, it is
the rainy season in Jamaica, with wa
ter enough and to- spare, but it is
Pro. chickering's intention to complete
his observations as soon as the cGndi-
lions of the climate will permit. He
will then abandon the station, selling
the buildings and removing the instru-
ments to Cambridge. All in all, the
station has been a decided success.
Aside from the Photographic work on
the moon, which, of course, has re-
suited in records of permanent value,
the "seeing"-as the astronomers call
it-from the highlands Of Jamaica has
proved to be good, much better than
in Cambridge, though not equal to

church organ instead OF q lookout man.
"The scheme" says the Record, has
worked beautifully and neither the

trict are onto the game. When the
organ is started, you might think in
passing the house that a prayer meet
ing or a revival service was in prog
ress behind the closed blinds, for it
plays nothing but hymns. All the
evening it switches from Nearer, My

then to From G~reenland's Icy Noun
