Presbyterians North reach out at Buffalo toward the
union with Presbyterians South and with all other
bodies holding their name and system The action at
Buffalo is not quite new, although it is little more
sweeping than former utterances and worded in differ

body has for years been holding its and offering
all inducements it could think Of to bring others in.
This body reports this gain Of per cent frac-
ton above the gain made by the population 1t now has
56s ministers 1922 churches LOs9953 members equal
to the population of at least 100000 and its eight or
panized boards received and dsbued last s 500 OO0
In practically all synods it made growth in membership
Unlike Methodlsm it holds its own in the Eastern and
Western cities and does fairly well in the country dis
tricts In Pennsylvania New York, Ohio, Illinois Mis-

Dirge For Two Veterans.

Otrge FOR Two Veterans
The last sunbeam
Lightly falls from the finish'd Sabbathi
On the pavement here, and there beyond it is looking
down new-made double grave.
Lo the moon ascending,
Up from the East the slyery round moon,
Beautiful the housetops, CHASTITY phantom MOON
Immense and silent MOON
see a sad procession,
And hear the sound of coming full-keyd buges,
All the channels of the city streets they're flooding
AS with voices and with tears
hear the great drums pounding
And the small drums steady whirring,
And every blow of the great convulsive drums
Strikes me through and through
For the son is brought with the father
In the foremost ranks of the fierce assault they fell
Two veterans son and father, dropt together,
And the double grave awaits them).
Now nearer blow the bugles
And the drums strike more convulsiye,
And the daylight Ger the pavement quite has faded
And the strong dead march enwraps me
In the Eastern sky up-buoying,
The sorrowfu vast phantom moves illumin'd
('Tis some mothers large, transparent face,
In heaven brighter growing),
strong dead march, you please me-
moon intense with your slyery face, you soothe me
0 my soldiers twain Q my veterans passing to burial
What have / also give you
The moon gives you light
And the bugles aud the drums give you music,
And my heart, 0 my soldiers my veterans,
My heart gives you love.
