union of them and us. through the
composition of some OF the differences
and the recognition that others do not
constitute sufficient reasons for creating
or continuing a rupture of that visible
unity Of the church for which our Lord
Jesus Christ prayed.
I'VE are very thankful TO believe that,
Notwithstanding differences between
Christians, yet because of the wide ac-
ceptance of the underlying basic prin-
ciple of baptismal unity. there is good
hope of the fulfllment OF our blessed
Lords high priestly prayer, which calls
for constant thought ana prayer and
conscientious effort on the part of His
disciples for the accomplishment of re-
union throughout Christendom.

under review arise from. the lack, both

Resolutions on remarriage after di-

rected that no such resolutions should
be moved for adoption against the will
of three bishops.
| Resolved. That the church's attitude
toward the questions of marriage and
divorce, in order to protect the institu-
tons of Christian marriage and the
Christian family. would be a bold ut

enacted by our Lords own words. no

Resolved. That in the alarming prev
alence of divorce and of the remarriagt
of divorced persons. the bishops assem-
bled here declare their conviction that
while the sacraments OF the church
should not be denied to the innocent
party in a divorce for adultery remar-
ried. the sanction of the church should
not be given to any remarriage after
divorce for any cause arising after mar
rage"

Osborne Day in Stanton"

Wednesday was pretty spring day
and the representative farmers of the
county to the number of four or five
hundred assembled at Black & Bow
mans warehouse on Middlebrook Ave
nue. to hear the merits of the Osborne
Farm Implements, the Black Hawk
Corn Planter, the Weber Wagons, bug
gies, ETC.. extolled. Mr.. D. A. Knup-
penburg, of Lake Cary, Penn, of the
Osborne people, made pretty little
speech setting forth the advantages as
well as durability of his implements,
and Mr.. Paul A. Keller, of Baltimore,
Eastern Manager of the Black Hawk
Corn Planter, was also on the ground,
and made a good impression on our
people. Messrs. Black & Bowman are
the local agents for these houses as
orators. besides handling fine line of
wagons, buggies, grass seed, etc. At
ter an hour of social talk Mr.. Black
announced that the free distribution
of presents would take place, and the
lucky ones were Mr.. E. D. Kindig of
Stuart's Draft, who received the har-
row, Mr.. j. N. McComb of Swoope,
the buggy rake, and Messrs. A. P.
Heatwole, A. G.. Christisn n, J. A. Cal
houn, F. r. Bell and j. M. Conner, re-
ceived presents of stock food, poultry
food, lawn grass seed, etc. Taking it
altogether it was big day, and it is
seldom you find such representative
assemblage of farmers together unless
noted political speaker is to talk TO
them. The enterprlsing members of
firm were also on the lookout for bust
ness, and closed several deals for corn
planters on the spot. The Osborne
people and Messrs. Black Il Bowman
can congratulate themselves on their
days work.

Resolutions of Affection, Respect and
Coincidence.

Though death is ever sad visitor
bringing hot tears to the eyes and sharp
pangs to the hearts OF those who are
left behind, the peculiar circumstances
Ieonnected with the passing away of
our friend and associate and fellow
student Joseph Thomas have been
such as to be productive of peculiar
grief in the bosOms of the people of
| this community and school. And
Whereas, his life and demeanor among
, us was characterized by such polite
| ness and courtesy us to gain for him
recognition as a little gentleman to
gether with high esteem and even af.
lection among those who knew him
best. And
Whereas, his separation is Divine
Providence from those connected with
/ him by ties of blood drew out for him
the tenderest Interest of those to whom
God had spared the pleasures of home
and family relatives. And
Whereas, We desire to attempt to ex-
press in some formal manner the feel
ings which this death has brought to
us. BE it resolved:
LIST. That we bow in humble sub
mission to the Will of Him who doeth
all things well and whose Father 3
heart is ever touched with feeling of
compassion for those bereft of loved
ones.
End. That We join our hearts and
hands and prayers for the conversion
of the young friends of this boy who,
as we have heard, gave bis heart to
God several years ago.
3rd. That we spread a copy of this
paper upon the records of this school
and also send copy to the members
of the bereaved family.

THE AUGUSTA STOCK LAW

There seems to be diversity oil
opinion among our farmers as to the
date when the stock law voted or
at the election last November becomes
operative For the Information OF
our readers we publish the following
clause of the law in regard to the date
which plainly says the law went into
effect January 1, 1908. The clause
reads as follows:
eff it shall appear from the re-
turns thereof that a majority of the
votes cast in said election are in
favor of Stock Law, then it shall
be unlawful after the FIRST DAY
OF JANUARY SUCCEEDING
THE ELECTION for the owner
or manager of horse, mule, COW,
sheep, goat, cattle, or any other
domestic animal, to permit such
animal to go at large upon any
highway or unenclosed lands with

THE STORY
OF A LADDER !!

Once upon time, so the story
goes. a ladder drifted on the shore
of distant island-mOst likely
one that is now ours. In doubt as
to its intended use, the natives be-
gan to pow wow about it. This
ended in the formation of two par
ties; one cOntending that the rungs
were made to hold the sides to.
gether, and the other that the sides
were made to hold the rungs apart.
So the matter rested. After time
sailor came to the island and
seeing the ladder promptly put it
up against tree and gathered
some fruit he wanted.
Something like this often hap
pens In the world of business.
Many people who need glasses
talk about them, but do not try
them and continue to suffer. Others
come along and apply them to
their intended use of affording re-
lief. Is this your case? Shall We
show you what we know about
glasses ?
