Another divorce case heard and deter
mined was that of Elizabeth Wolcott VS..
Fred Wolcott. This couple were made
one at Orwell, their home, in 1899. and
lived together more or less for the follow
ing three years, when Fred left home
and has since been husband to his wife
in name only. The bill was later allowed
on the ground set up, which was wilful
desertion, and the petitioner was awarded
the custody of the one minor child, a
f~our-year-old daughter. James b. Dona-
way was the attorney for the petitioner
and no defense was made, although the
petitionee had an attorney of record.

furnished bonds of $500 to perfect the
appeal.

DIR. Merrill gave to his own and succeed
ing generations.
Professor Perkins of Burlington, con
veying greetings of the Congregational
Club of Western Vermont, spoke upon
the aid that these occasions rendered the
Club. The pastor Of the church, the
Rev. Thomas Simms, entered into great
er detail regarding the elements of sue
cess in DIR. Merrili's ministry. Besides
being a profound scholar and superior
preacher, DIR. Merrill was an approach
able man, a successful organizer, a man
of affairs, familiar with nature and ply
steal science, and an authority on grape
culture. Besides this he was a great fac
tor in religious work throughout the
State. But the most important quality
in him, as in any really successful man,
was his strong, manly character, by
which he influenced others, and on ac-
count of which he is especially honored
today.
DIR. C. S. Murkland spoke upon the inn
portance of having the spirit of the Puri-
tan ever with us as a force for service
and worth. DIR. w. L. Phillips, the ora
tor of the day, called attention to present
day problems and the methods and spirit
by which they are to be solved.
The music. in charge of Mrs. G. D..
Miner, was up to the usual high order of
these occasions. Vocal solos were rem
dered by Mrs. Howard anu Mrs. Hill and
piano solos by Mrs. McGilton. The even
ing, one of the most delightful of these
occasions, closed by the audience uniting
in singing t'Auld Lang Syne."

what they did and made manifest their
expectation of arrival in their own coun-
try; for they were not men without a
country, they were sojourners here, but
they had citizenship in Heaven.
This same pilgrim consciousness has
been in the souls of all men who have
felt themselves in conditions alien to
their spirit, and have gone out to seek a
congenial atmosphere and to found con-
genial institutions. The New England
~forefathers were pilgrims in spirit before
they were pilgrims in fact. They were
in England and the Established Church,
but they were not of them. They could
not conform because they had been
transformed by the renewing of their
minds under the inspiration of a new
concept of state and church. They went
out to find their own country, to rear
their own altar, and to build their own
state. The vision of some profounder
truth, some better condition, makes a
man alien to whatever is antagonistic to
his vision. puts him out of joint with his
time and his environment, and gives him
no rest till he finds the land OF promise.
Such men are always crossing Jordans,
and entering Canaans, and sailing May
flowers, and establishing new c%iviliza-

are ever leading other men into clearer
visions and a larger life. They appeal to
men because they handle problems that
affect mans largest hope and are mex
tricably woven in with his permanent
interests.
Writing of Oliver Cromwell, John
Morley has recently said; THE greatest
names in history are those who, in a full
career and amid the turbid eXtremities
of political action, have yet touched
closest and at most points the wide. ever
standing problems of the world, and the
things in which mans interest never
dies. OF this rare company Cromwell
was surely one" And we may add, in
this rare company the New England fore
fathers must surely be enrolled, for, who
can deny their touch upon these prob
lens and interests: Freedom! Religion.
Government! Mans condition on the
earth, his right to his own brain and
conscience. Mans conception of God.

His notions of civic obligation and Off
cial duty grew out of this SENSE of indi-
vidual responsibility to God, and of his
conception of government as a divine in
stitution GOd was the Supreme Ruler; as
the servant of God. responsible to God
alone, it was his business to see that the
public business was done in truth and
soberness, the official atmosphere kept
untainted by corruption or fraud. These
obligations were AS binding as the obi
cation to worship. He took the town
business and legal processes into the
meeting house because sermon and
prayer were nc more sacred than the
ballot box and the court; he made none
of the fine modern distinctions between
the sacred and the secular, everything
was sacred because everything must he
done as unto the Lord. Is anyone pre-
pared to affirm that such conceptions
would harm us today: Are We not
rather in more danger from our DISPOSE
ton to draw a stiff line between the sa-
cred and the secular than he was in
making every act a religious act, in
which a man put his conscience and felt
the presence of God2
If we cannot have such love of right

ness of secular things. without sternness
and narrowness, then let us have stern
ness and narrowness, for me must have

essential ~sacrednesss of those relations
and duties which lie outside the supposed
realms Of religion. Progress that is
worthy of the name is progress from the
lower to the higher, toward the ideal {;

Victim OF Politics.

DIR. Henry S. Hartzog, formerly
President of Clemson College, and
until recently President of the Uni
versity of Arkansas, has lost his
place as the head of that institution,
all because of politics, according to
the Memphis Commercial Appeal.
The Appeal says: "While the men
in control of the public schools of
Arkansas have been fighting nobly to
keep politics at distance, there is a
serious charge that the removal of
DIR. H. S. Hartzog from the Presi-
dency of the State University is due
to this source" The Springfield
News, which is published in the
home county of the University,
makes the direct charge. 1t
claims that the scholarly educator
who has done his duty so faithfully
was removed because of a demon
stration of students favoring Wood
for Governor over Davis. Whether
true or not, the following comment
which the Appeal makes is certainly
one full of truth:
elf this be true Arkansas is SOW
ing crop of politics in places that
will most certainly raise harvest of
deplorable results in the noar future.
The education of the youth of the
land should be absolutely free from
political control. No man may do
his duty as an educator if his posi-
tion is to be endangered at the whim
of every ignorant, but popular indi-
vidual who may be advanced to high
places in the policies of the State.
When politicians of this sort appear
upon the horizon the people should
take warning, for they are of the
calibre that builds machines which
will roll over and hatten out all
liberal views and all individuals. 1t
is hard question, which is worse to
have politicians run school from
the outside or from the inside. Take
the case in point" "-Orangeburg
