FOR CHRIST CHURCH.

THAT THE PROPOSITION HAS
BEEN SUCCESSFULLY RI

The parishoners of Christ Church
parish are rejoicing over tho immedi.
ate prospect Of n new pipe organ for
the church. The rector, Mr.. Barnes.
has been working hard since coming
TO the parish for the advancement OF
the church's interests, and has advo-
Gated as the next important step. the
purchase OF more dignified musical
instrument. While the subject had
ben talked over by the rector with DIFF
ferent members of the parish, and par
ticularl of he.choir, from time to time
rs far back as last spring. still 1t was
felt that there was possibility, not
to say probability. Of the parish's
building new church in the near fu-
ture. It has. however, been pretty def
i!tely decided not to build new
church for perhaps two years. the
membership The meantime working to
strengthen The parish and adj to its
resources.
Three weeks ago the first move was
made. and the rector announced u
the congregation the inception OF n
campaign to secure funds for new
organ. or course the organ that COULD
be used in the present structure would
probably not be adequate for the
largurychurch that the parish proposes
70 build later, but as the plans for the
new edifice include plans also for a
new parish house, the organ chat II If
proposed to buy now will be valuable
addition to its equipment.
To show the growth of the fund a
representation of thermometer has
been hung In the lobby. The stem OF
the thermometer is graduated and as

liometer Is an artistic piece of work.
1t was drawn by Mr.. Arthur Brobst.
The rector and the choir were great
ly pleased to learn yesterday from
Mr.. Sam r. Nuzum, who has been ac-
tive in getting the organ project f.
nanced, that the money for the new In
strument was practically assured. and
that an immediate selection and in
stallation of the organ might be made.
There Is rather a strong sentiment
among the choir members in favor of
a stock instrument, and in case that
kind OF organ is chosen, II Is expected
that II will be in by Christmas.

William NJ. o. Dawson, the Governor

the said State.
In his proclamation setting apart
this day the President says:
when, nearly three centuries ago.
the first settlers came to the country
which has now become this great re.
public. they fronted not only hard.
ship and privation, but terrible risk to
their lives. In those grim years the
custom grew of setting apart one
day in each year for special ser.
vice of thanksgiving to the Almighty
for preserving the people through the
changing seasons. The custom has
now. become national and hallowed
by immemorial usage. We live in
easier and more plentiful times than
our forefathers, men who with rugged
strength faced rugged days, and yet
the dangers to national life are quite
as great now as at any previous time
in our history. 1t is eminently fitting

soldier could no longer get his glass
of beer in the canteen he resorted to
whiskey in the lowest dives, and the
result was that his physical and moral
health suffered and desertions in.
creased. The Indian is human like his
brother. He Graves n stimulaut, and
if 1t is shut Off from him he will go
out OF his way to get 1t. He will buy
adulterated. poisonous liquors from
the blind tiger: he will do worse. may.

known result OF. prohibition that beer,
being handled in bulk, is shut out of
a State or county. while alcoholic
drinks of the worst kind are surreptI.
tiously carried in and disposed OF.
II the Indian is permitted mild
drinks like beer. he will not seek the
ones. nor, will he kill
himself with the drug. habit.
!. IN conclusion, therefore. Mr.. Pres.
ident, why not. If restriction for
the Indians is deemed necessary. let
It be confined to ardent spirits. and
such patent medicines and soda

per cent. of alcohol, and permit beer
to be sold under proper supervision.
