Thanksgiving time is the busiest sea-
son for the manufacturers of and deal
ers in masks and false faces. The fan
tastical costume parades and the old
custom of masking and dressing for
amusement ON Thanksgiving day keep
ND from year to year in many parts of
the country, so that the quantity OF
false faces sold at this season is enor-
nous. The manufacturers make it a
point to get up new styles and this
wear brownies, 'yaller kids" parrot
yisages and many other novelties will
be on sale. Masks of prominent men
and the foremost political leaders are
made by some manufacturers, and
large sized false hands, noses, ears,
etc, are also new and amusing.-Se-

What Did She Hold2

Discussion of the Venus of Milo
and her long lost arms is still con-
tinuing, but no amount of polemics
seems likely to lead to the restora-
ton Of the statue. Did the Venus

hold anything? What did she hold

The Northwest INDIANA conference
now in session at South Bend, directs
attention to the first Methodist con-
ference held in America 119 years ago.
1t met at Baltimore ON Christmas day.
1884. Sixty-one clergymen were pres
ent, and Francis Asbury was there
made superintendent or bishop.
The first delegate conference was
held in New York in May, 1912, and
a general conference to make laws for
the church mas been held in May every
four years since that time.
The next general conference will be
held at San Francisco in May, 1904.
Bishop Asbury little dreamed to what
extent this organization would devel-
op. 1t is now church with over four
millions Of members, and has immense
book and publishing houses in all the
large cities of America, its own for
eign missionary societies, and various
auxiliary societies, which no church
had when it was organized.

The generous response to our former
appeals for homes for the children In
the orphans homes Of the state has
given happiness to very large num-
Der of the older children and some of
the tiny ones.
There are at present needing homes
near five hundred very nice boys anc
girls from five to eight years of age.
Experience has shown that the best
results are secured where children OF
this age are taken into the family for
care, love and training. The charac-
tiers are just forming then and the
dispositions re more easily controlled
than at older ages and the cldm o1e
quickly becomes member of the FAM
lily.
Child-life is natural part of every
household and the heart yearns for it.
The children need the care and love of
father and mother. Through no fault
Of theirs they are denied this care on
the part of their own parents.
Is not your home open for sturdy
six year old boy, or a fine little girl?

Trials of the Pioneers.

The Methodist conference at South
Bend has been one of the most noted
IN the history of Indiana Methodism.
There has been great enthusiasm and
many powerful addresses in addition
to the routine work of the conference.
Friday morning Bishop Joyce spoke
of the trials of the pioneers OF Metho-
dism in this state, and thought that
the most of those in this conference
scarcely realized What the old preach
ers had to undergo. They had no
theological training, or at least the
training Of theological schools; there.
fore their preaching was genuine and
right from the heart. The bishop
said that he did not wish to be put
down as against the theolocical school,
but he did wish those schools would
introduce new chair and call it the
chair of common sense. It was need
ed In the training Of young men for
the ministry. Some of them actually
lost their best traits by too much book
learning. The preacher should be
skillful in himself and the school
should help his skill to reach the
hearts of men. 1t should be the first
thought of preacher to appreciate
first that those who come to hear him
are always full of heartache and they
are looking for consolation extended
to them in such a manner as will be
effective and will act as a balm for the
affection that is troubling the soul.
The whole thing should be preach
ed, nothing lodged, nothing added to.
The path for the preacher is laid out
fully by the scriptures and he should
get his inspiration there. Holiness
should be preacbed; not the sour,
cranky kind, that only makes men
feel bad and bitter, but that which is
cheerful and gracious.
The bishop liked to see young men
who were strong within themselves,
who had the right kind of judgment,
who would study human nature as
well as the scriptures and know the
people with when they had to come
in contact in the capacity of pastor.
The address was quite long and
filed with good advice to Methodist
preachers especially, and was eloquent
and stirring.

Governor Odell, of New York, was
the speaker at the Fulton county fair
In that state Thursday. Speaking of
lawlessness and labor riots throughout
the country, he declared these out
breaks should be met by force, and
lessons taught which cannot be mis-
understood. He said:
s'In all the history Of the world law
lessness has never yet prevailed or
government been a success which has
had its foundation upon anarchy and
crime. Always the good in the COM
munity will assert itself and rapine
and crime are brushed aside. There
fore the only safety for our accumula-
tions, for our ambitions. rests upon
the order and well-beiDg Of society.
"Our law-making functions are
lodged In the people through their
representatives, and it would be much
better for the government to correct
those laws that are distasteful by leg
islation than to permit their constant
violation by any considerable number
of our people. Desire for popular
clamor and applause which may lead
US to sanction and approve measures
which may seem at the time to be
vote-gathering instruments should be
rebuked by the popular voice of the
people.
sit is not always popular to speak
the truth, but there is a greater salts
faction to the conscience in so doing.
Laws which may seem to be Cypress
i've to any interest can always be cor
rected or abolished If the people So
will it, and 1t is certainly more to our
credit as a country to accomplish it
through peaceful methods than by the
exercise OF brute force.
81 am a believer in labor unions,
and so long as their functions are ex-
ercised along lawful lines the right of
the individual workman to pool his
labor with that OF his fellow man is
undiSputed. Actions, however, that
are out Of harmony with our republic
an institutions should be prevented as
much as actions which may Cypress
labor or deprive it Of its rights and
joyments. -

The government's investigation of
the numerous land and trust COM
panies organized to beguile the Indians
through the lease system has revealed
the fact that a number of these land
grabbers have unknowingly gone
against the 'scivilized" Indian, and
have got the worst of it. In their
benevolent assimilation of the lands
belonging to this simple and untutored
child of nature the agents aud trust
companies, it seems. were not careful
in ascertaining whether an Indian had
leased his allotment more than once.
An Indian usually received an honor
arium of s25 or $50 for executing a
lease. The Indian, when civilized, is
not good bookkeeper and isn't both
cred with good memory. With true
western thrift and business sagacity
he leased his allotment every time he
had an applicant. Having been robbed
for marry years by the Indian gents,
the enterprising red man took idvan-
tage of his opportunity to hani the
white man few bargains. One Creek
sscitizen" leased his allotment seven
teen times and is stall looking for more
applicants.
