Our church picnic held last week
at Raymondskill FAILS was very
we'll attended. The NJ E. Sunday
school on the hill united with us in
making the picnic a red letter day
in the memories of the children.
The parents. too, we're we'll repre-
sented and passed the day in neigh
borly and social chat. It is esti-
mated that there were some two
hundred people present. The
thanks of the children are most
cheerfully rendered to those who so
kindly contributed the candies and
nuts The day was perfect and the
dinner was the most delightful and
sumptuous one of recent years.

cHEApER FARE

The hotel and boarding house
keepers here during the coming
winter should unite in asking the
Erie for a reduction in price Of
round trip tickets for summer
guests. There could be no other
single feature of the business which
would 30 greatly induce a larger
number of guests. If the railroad
could be persuaded to view the mat
ter in this light we believe that the
increased travel would result in
bringing it much greater revenue.
At all events our people should
make the effort to secure lower rates
and united action in the matter
might influence the road to try the
experiment.

THAT MOTT STREET BRIDGE
Ever since its erection the Mott
street bridge has been a source of
danger TO the public and a great ex d.
pense to keep in repair. Many hun
dred dollars have been expended on
it and the approaches with the re-
suit that a great part of this money
has been wasted, and now extensive
repairs to the Milford approach are
necessary. It has been suggested
that the bridge be lengthened some
forty feet and new abutment
erected on this side. This would
dispense with the present abutment
and the fill. We do not believe in
the policy of lengthening bridges if
the surroundings or volume of the
stream do not make it absolutely
necessary. Iron work in the end is
more expensive than good stone
work. Bridges must be kept paint
ed and they frequently need re-
plsnking. They are a constant ex-
pense and every added foot makes
that greater. Stone work we'll done
needs no subsequent outlay. It lasts
for all time. If the commissioners
want to make a permanent job oi
the Mott street bridge let them rest
the bridge on the abutting walls
built against the abutment on this
side and instead of a through bridg,
build a deck bridge, that is. a bridg,
with roadway on top of thi
trusses. There would yet be plenty
Of room under it for the water
Then instead Of long wing walls oi
this side let them run back at I
proper angle to support the dirt ant
let the dirt be well riprapped. Thi
may all cost a trihe more at tn
start than longer bridge but Il
will be more enduring and less ex
pensive in the end. If the commls
sioners indulge in buying iron rath-
or than giving employment to oul
people in building masonry and
spending the county money among
those who pay taxes. they may FIND
it hard to satisfy the public tina
there is not something doing 70
their own benefit

The topic for next Sabbath mornT
ing is "rhe Eucharistic JOY" and
for the evening Goods Estimate of
Man.
There will be preaching at Union
next Sabbath afternoon.
We can not too strongly empha-
size the importance of the sacra-
mental service to be held next Sab
bath morning. We call upon all
Christians among US to self exami-
nation that ahey may come to the
table of the Lord prepared to be par.
takers of the divine life anew.
Miss Lily Van Tassell and Mrs. B.
E. Brown deserve the hearty thanks
of the congregation for the very ef-
ficient service rendered as flower
committee for the month that has
just passed. The pastor Is a lover
of flowers and finds it easier to
preach in a garden of beauty than
in barren wilderness. We add
therefore our personal note of
thanks.
It has been of personal interest to
the writer to observe the attitude of
the press on the question of prohibit
ton as it was represented by Pear
son, the noted sheriff of Portland,
Maine, who had gumption enough
to close the dives run in spite of the
law against them. Pearson has
died and his conduct has eliclted
universal praise. HE found more
than two hundred open saloons and
closed every one of them, says the
Zion Herald of Boston. The Boston
dailies have been trying to outdc
each other in praise of this true and
noble man. Why should all this be
said after that noble hearted Chris.
tian politician is no more among us
Why should papers that support the
rum business applaud a dead prohi-
bitionist? Let us be consistent. L
a mans work is worth praislng af-
ter he is dead then let US give hin
some support in the cause as nobl,
as any for which ever man fought
while he is alive. Three cheers fol
a sheriff who has gumption enough
to enforce the law
At a meeting of the Epworth
League held last Monday evening
arrangements were made for thi

If one happens to wander about
one of the wholesale markets In any
of the large cities he cannot but fnil
to observe the difference between
now and the hard time years of
1894 SO. In those days poor women
and ragged boys and girls were to
be seen sneaking about with baskets
or aprons gathering up any old and
stale vegetables which could not be
sold. Today around any of the large
markets whole piles Of leftover
vegetables, wilted or damaged-to
matoes, cabbages, egg plants, tur-
nips, corn, eto.--are carted away
every day as waste, and no "poor
people" appear to claim or beg
them. This Is something which the
average politician who Is crying
reform" fails 10 observe or com
ment upon, but it is nevertheless
genuine testimonial that the dinner
pail is really full.

YOung Plants

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
md seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
and strong while others stay
small and weak.

easy way out of the difficulty.

Gently stated that the republican
party deserves little credit for the

icy The republicans did precisely
what they promised they would do
during the Mckinley Bryan cam
paign of 1896. They rescued the
country from the blighting effects
of the Cleveland Wilson free trade
law and they saved it from the pro
posed Bryan financial panic. The
result, Immediately the election was
over, was restoration of confidence,
followed by tremendous commercial
activity and prosperity. This is the
history of the last eight years in O
nutshell and all the demagoguery

ulists combined cannot make it more
