For dozen years I was fortunate
enough to be one of Mr.. McKinley's
closest friends. l have here a letter,
written by one who knew better than
any one else how to do it, and It tells
of Mr. Mckinley as his mother saw
him." Here letter was read. 1t told
of his boyhood and his growth to man
hood and the note that ran through it
all was II tried to make him a good
boy and a good man." His home life
was mentioned by General Dick in
closing, and he said: ut seems that
the best lesson in all his great and
good life comes from his personality"

world. As we meet today one Of the
fouest deeds found on the pages OF
history Is recalled. One year ago
President Mckinley was shot down by
one whose hand was offered under
the guise of friendship and there Is
not single element to rob the crime
of most awful atrocity; not single
thing that can be offered in extenua-
tion Of the foul deed, which seems al
most to spread black pail over the
history of our American greatness.
civilian Mckinley was the great
est constructive statesman of the CEN
tury. His life Is both sermon and
protest His life in the political
world is a lesson in morals. No man
was more continually in the lime light,
no man in public life gave a greater
opportunity for criticisms,and yet none
have been freer from attack and the
character of the late President has
always been above reprcach. Now
twelve months have passed and not
voice has been raised in protest. His
career has lost none of its moral basis
and grandeur.
His life is protest. 1t shows that
there are other things than money and
power. His life's sacrifice is pro-
test against the unwtse policy of al
lowing foreigners to rush into this
country and foreignize America. In
his death there is silent protest
against the business man who has
time to make money but not time to
give attention to municipal affairs.
His influence will live. Memorial
services will increase but little his
prestige. Ten years hence when the
smoke and haze of prejudice have
cleared away somewhat his influence
will be felt more. Fifty years it will
be greater and will continue to grow.
Our history will be marked by three
great divisions. George Washington
will be found in the first section.
Abraham Lincoln in the second, and
in the third, which marks the launch
ing of this nation upon a career Of
worldwide activity on the principles
of Christian democracy will be found
William Mckinley of Ohio.
'Hon6red was Ohio honored was
the Methodist Episcopal church, hon
ored was America in the career Of
William Mckinley. May we all be
as sincere and honest and faithful as
this man of whom it may be said az
was said of Sampson, He slew more
of the enemies of the Christian faith
in his death than in his life"
The services closed with the singing
Of Nearer, My God to Thee"

Barberton, Sept. 15.-The first week
of the Catholic parochial school closed,
Friday, with 65 pupils in attendance,
all of these being children above the
sixth grade.
There are 16O school children in st.
Augustine's parish but as, owing to
lack Of funds, only one teacher could
be employed, this year, it was found
necessary to take only such pupils as
We're advanced beyond the sixth grade.
Next year Father Sheffield hopes to
be able to employ three teachers and
thus accommodate all the children of
the parish.
The teacher for this year is Miss
Grace Sweeney, Of Akron, who was
formerly a teacher in ST. Mary's
schools at that place. The branches
taught this year are: Catechism, BIZ
BILE history, arithmetic, mental and
board work, grammar, spelling, geog-
raphy, United States history, and for
more advanced grades, English liter
ature. The recitation system is of
necessity used this year though it will
not be when more teachers are en-
ployed.
The school hours are from to II a.
M, and from 1 to 3 p. m. Each pupil
is required to do one and half hours
Of night work though this is made light
by giving review lessons for these
study hours. Special attention is paid
in this school to the old time "three
RS" The system of penmanship fol-
lowed is the Spencerian slant.
The strictest discipline will be main
tanned and parents will be frequently
apprised of their children's progress
both as to studies and department.
Preference points are given pupils for
neatness of person and dress.
No children are admitted to ST. Au-
gustine's school until they are famil-
lar with the English language.

ELOQUENT WORDS
In Praise Of the Late President
Spoken by Rev. Lindemuth.

The Mckinley memorial service in
the First Presbyterian church, Sun
day morning, was quietly impressive.
Fine music was rendered by the choir
which was composed of the following
persons: Mrs. George Parker, Miss
Edith Haggerty and Miss Alice Hes
lop; Messrs. B. w. Robinson. Frank
Beldin, Clyde Finney, Charles Roth,
and George Miley. The soloists were
Miss Haggerty and Miss Heslop and
the pianist, Miss Laura shenkel.
The sermon was delivered by Rev.
l.. A. Lindemuth, and was beautiful
bit of oratory. The text chosen was:
HE is worthy that thou shouldst do
this for him."
Said Rev. Lindemuth, in part:
"A year ago the nation put on the
garb of mourning. The flags of all the
nations of the world were lowered be-
cause Mckinley, our chief magistrate
the worlds benefactor, had passed
away. A scene followed such as the
world had never witnessed when. at
the moment Of the funeral, there was
great silence throughout this entire
country, when not wheel was turn
ed and the entire people sent up a
silent prayer to God for the great man
who was dead"
He spoke in bitter denun-
citation of the atrocious crime
which he pronounced worse than the
assassination of either Lincoln or Gar
field, and dwelt at length on the utter
ignorance and folly of any who could
expect that any change of government
could result from the death of the
chief magistrate of this country, where
the nation would feel no tremor and
where the President would be sue
ceeded by one identical in thought and
bound by the holiest of ties to carry
out the plans Of his predecessor. He
drew attention to the fact that mo
country on earth has been called upon
to mourn the assassination of three
of its chief magistrates in the short
period of SO years"
Said he: THE blow struck at Nc
kinley was a deadlier blow to the
anarchy that instigated it,"
Then followed fine eulogy of the
martyred President as a Christian a
soldier, statesman and politician and
a retrospect of his life from boyhood
to the winning of the laurels of the
martyrs crown.
'As President, Mckinley stood for
law and order, humanity, purity Of
home life, intellectual greatness. ana
he fell a martyr to the highest ideals
of American life." (.
The address closed with descrip-'
tion of the death of Mckinley which
Rev. Lindemuth likened to that of
Christ Mckinley" said he. "was a
politician of the purest type and he
was greater for the evils he diverted
than for the difficulties he overcame."
Sermons appropriate to the anniver-
sary of the death of President Nc
kinley were also preached last evening
by Rev. DR.. j. w. Moore In the Main
st. Nj. E. church and by Rev. ]. II.
zinn in st. Paul's Lutheran church.
