He has been connected with the fac

Work for our new master, but we are
glad to announce that Brother Morrill,
is all right. In the afternoon, Lecturer
Rowland had charge of the exercises
and called upon the choir for one of
their selections, following which the
question was asked; rs coloring but
ter fraua?" Brother Clifford was the
first speaker and claimed that oleo was
made and colored in imitation of butter
and therefore was a fraud; while butter.
even if it may be artificially colored
still is what it is designed to be and
is not fraud. Oleo made to take the
place Of butter sells for what it is not
and therefore is a fraud; while butter
sails for what it really is and is not
fraud. One eloquent member thought
colored butter was dangerously neal
being fraud if not quite. Other speak
ers joined in the debate, which was
quite lively. Brother Cottle sang one
of his popular songs and responded to
an encore The treasurer and secretary
made their reports, showing the finan-
ces in healthy condition.
