New Grenada.
Mrs. Jane Truax of Enid, visit
ed friends in New Grenada on
Friday.

ously of moving to Ursina, Som
erset county.

dale last Thursday.

the loss falls heavy.

of the election of j. A. Melon
ough as Justice of the Peace in
Wells, DR.. Campbell placed the

amusement of our citizens.
Billy Bryan is dead. That no.
BILE, affectionate, and educated
large Maltese cat at the home of
L. L. c., passed from this life on
Sunday night by the hands of
some unknown poison fend.-
Surely there are many to mourn
after him. He was a great figure
in the last presidential campaign.
Take him up and say to him. "Bil-
ly Bryan, if you are Democrat,
give me a kiss" and he would
prove his Democracy by placing
a kiss upon your forehead; hence,
his name.
The entertainment at p. o. S.
of A. Hall on Saturday night was
a success throughout. The stage
performance was up-to- date. The
ice cream and chicken (swell-up)
was good. No better order was
anywhere-not solitary drunk,
not an oath, no foul language-all
in peace and harmony-thus max
ing 1t a respectable place for soci-
ability. Well done, P. o. S. of A.
Camp. The music furnished by
the Chamberlain Brothers quar-
tette of Six Mile Run, namely,
John, Charles, Luther, and Ed
ward, was fine, and the attention
given was evidence of our peo-
ple's appreciation of same. The
music was a treat, indeed, to
New Grenada folks as we never
heard such well trained quar-
tette here before. Come again,
boys. You will be welcome.

The Profanity Evil.

A movement that is spreading
over the State with commendable
rapidity is the organization of an
tiProfanity societies, Inaugural
ted, we believe, by a timely edi-
torial on the subject in the Phila-
delphia enquirer" Many pas
tors and churchmen are enlisted
in the good work and are holding
meetings for the promotion of the
organization of these societies.
We hope the good work may
reach this place; for if there is q
town in the United States, of the
population of McConnellsburg,
with five churches, five Sunday
schools, and five young peoples
societies, where one hears more
shocking profanity on the streets,
we pity it. The most deplorable
part is the fact that it is so uni
versally practiced among children
children, not unfrequently,
whose parents are influential
members Of a church.
We do not mean to say that this
language is used with the know
ledge and consent of the parents,
but there is such a state deprav-
ity existing among the young
sters on the street, that as soon
as children from christian homes
get on the streets and play
grounds, they readily acquire the
hair raising adjectives used by
playmates.
That the contagion of smallpox
may be brought under control,
and the health and lives of her
citizens be pro; ected the city, f
Philadelphia is paying out over
$1,000 day. Wilkesbarre, Scran-
ton, and other cities are spend
ing proportionately large sums
for the same purpose. AS soon
as any one of their citizens is
known to be infected with the
disease, he is quarantined and
not allowed to mingle with the
public until entirely free from
the malady. Now, here, we have
a public evil more dangerous in
its consequences than smallpox
which leaves it's marks only on
the body ofitsvictim; for profanity
not only violates the civil law but
the fundamental law of God, and
leaves its marks deeply pitted on
the soul which, unless healed by
the blood of the Atonement, sinks
into eternal ruin.
1t is quite time that steps be
taken to stop this fragrant evil.
Anyone may be arrested and ia
ken before justice of the peace
and fined 674 cents for each oath
uttered; and if an example were
made Of few persons, it would
soon be found to be too expensive
luxury to be INDUCED in every
day.
Few people like to take the re-
sponsibility of having their neigh
Dor, or their neighbours children,
arrested. 1t might produce a
coolness, you know, or some fel-
low might stop his paper But,
it would be a good plan to have an
officer who would have the nerve
to pick up any and everybody he
heard swearing on the street, and
conduct them into the presence
of a magistrate.
No use to spend money on the
"heathen" and let our own chill
dren go to the bad.
1t is as much a criminal offence
to swear as it is to steal.
The sun does not keep good

Miss Vests Lecture.

day evening large audience was
assembled at the Presbyterian
church to hear Miss Anna West,
daughter of Rev. w. A. West, D..
D., pastor of the Presbyterian
church of this place. Miss West
who has resided in the Japanese
capital for eighteen years as a
missionary, gave a vivid descrip-
tion of the Japanese people, their
customs, language, &c, which
was intensely interesting, and
the hour and a half spent seemed
all too short. 1t is to be hoped
that Miss West will favor us with
another lecture before she re-
turns to the Sunrise Kingdom. "
Her home is in Toxic, the capi.
tol of Japan, and she gave the fol-
lowing amusing little poem
YOU NIGHT SUPPOSE, If YOU DIDN n
KNOW.
You might suppose, II you didn't
know,
There were no queer things in Tokyo:
That when twas time the train would
go;
That railroad clocks were never slow,
That city lights on the moats would
glow
And mark your way in blinking
row,
And paper lanterns you needn't show
These things you'd suppose, if you
didn't know.
You might suppose, if you didn't
know,
When winter comes and the cold winds
blow,
No gaping cracks your walls would
show;
That water in pipes to yourdoors would
flow,
That servants never would answer
"Non
And with their ideas your plans DER
throw
You might suppose, if you didn't
know.
You might suppose, if you didn't
know
When you walk the streets and shop
ping go
No juggling crowd would gather and
grow,
Or smoke in your face, or step on your
toe,
Nor naughty boys, in manner low,
Bad names would call, or mud-pies
throw,
And you wouldn't feel like circus,oh,
Perchance you'd suppose, If you didn't
know.
You might suppose, if you didn't
know,
That this eastern world was full of
woe,
And that all these things would plague
you so,
Yes, of course, you'd suppose, if you
didn't know.
-Jlngles from Japan.
On Monday Miss West left for
Toronto, Canada, where she will
lecture before the "Student's
Volunteer Movement for Foreign
Missions. This association holds
convention every four years. 1t
is international and interdenom-
national. The last convention
was held at Cleveland, o. Stu
dent representatives are sent
from colleges all over the land,
and the Toronto gathering will
number from 2000 to 5000 repre-.
sentatives. Wilson college is
sending two young ladies, whose
names we do not have; and Miss
Mary Grove, of our own town, is
one of the delegates from West
minister college at New Whining

The sun does not keep good
time. He is almost always too
fast or too slow. Once about the
middle of April he is just on time,
then not again before the middle
of June. AT the beginning of
September he joins the clock a
third time, and lastly once more
late in December. Now it would
seem as if he were startled at the
way he had neglected us. In
February he fell back until he
was fifteen minutes late. BY the
beginning of March he had made
up five minutes of his loss, and
before the month is over he will
have caught up to within five nm
utes of the schedule. Meanwhile
the days have been growing long
er very rapidly. We begin March
with our nights longer than our
days. We end it with our days
longer than our nights. la the
one month we have added to the
length of our day an hour and
twenty minutes, a bigger gain
than any other month can show.
