JUDGE HENRY C. IDE.
Vermont Jurist VIII Become Vice
Governor of the Philippines
Next January.

Henry Clay Ide, of Vermont, who will
succeed Gen. Luke Z. Wright, as vice
governor of the Philippines, is now a
member of the Philippine commission.
HIS promotion will be brought about by
the appointment Of Judge Taft to the
war portfolio and the subsequent pro-
motion of Gen. Wright to the Philip
pine governorship. Mr.. Wright has seen
service in both branches of the Vermont
legislature. He was appointed United
States commissioner to Samoa in 1891,
and two years later was made chief JUS
tice of those islands under the tripar-
tite arrangement between Great Britain,
Germany and the United States. He
served in Samoa until 1897, when the

Gently asked to outline his idea
of the function of the church in its re-

that he himself went into practical poll
tics not long ago, and served his home
city in a legislative capacity, his words
have more than ordinary weight. The
conclusion at which he now arrives is
that it is wisest for the church in all its
activities to keep itself free from en-
tanglement with practical politics" but,
he says, "the church whose membership,
including its minister, is not actively
at work in securing good government
in the community in which it stands has
neglected great part of its duty" He
says further, in the Christian Endeavor
World (Boston):

An attractive scenic effect may be

1t is well to place it in partial shade

Many wild flowers that love the shade

An ugly pile of stones, obviously not
the arrangement of nature, placed
where nobody wants stones either for
utility or for beauty. But of course
the effort to secure natural grace and
picturesqueness is sometimes success
full. The structure should look some
thing like Fig. 2.
