years having served for three years

to take care Of any defamation oc-
| casioned by war losses.

selves and the world in which we live
and served all testify to our quickened
and more comprehensive conception of
the field essentially occupied by the
Christian church. We stand in the gray
dawn of the momentous day in which
the trained powers of an awakened de-
nomination, inspired by the spirit Of
Almighty God, shall be used in efficient
service to the glory of his matchless
name. For this great privilege, to q. de-
gree attained, let US praise him.
On this account the church has al
ways regarded herself responsible for
the training Of the child, and she is, in
the highest sense, to be regarded as the
mother of popular education, in all its
varied forms, as represented IN the best
types Of Christian civilization. In the
most modern forms of educational ac-
tivity, she assumes the right to demand
Of the state certain requirements in the
character OF the teacher and in the
character of the instruction given in the
schools maintained at the public ex
pense for the education of our citizens
And, not willing that the state should
have exclusive privileges in the educa-
ton of the youth, the church has been
founding and maintaining at heavy eX-
pense institutions of higher learning, so
that under her direct influence and
supervision she may make it the more
certain that proper attention be given
to the aesthetic and the religious in the
critical period of the young life when
childhood is merging into early matur-
ity.
our own church has felt as others
have done, that this field is Of great
moment, and has from time to time
founded such Institutions of higher
learning. We may congratulate our
selves upon what has been done In
this direction. but much remains un-
done.
our educational work needs to be
unified. What must be sought is not
organic union, or any such thing as a
centralized administration, or any loss
of autonomy on the part of any one or
in any officer of the board. but such an
adjustment of our sch ools to a plan
to bring every part of our denomina-
tiona1 work into correlation with every
other part.
A denomination numbering 100000
members ought to send to her theOlog-
| ical school or schools candidates in
sufficient numbers to guarantee an ad-
dition to her ministry of from so to
| Is graduates every year. It ought to
| furnish equipment to her theological
recognition to satisfy the reasonable
| demands of any student loyal to the
| church of his choice.
| The receipts of the beneficiary fund
were s2o,17o, and the expenditures
| $19,526.
The thirteen colleges. institutes, etc,
| employ $50 professors and other
teachers, and the students in all de-
| partments number 1858. The total
| productive endowment is $194,751,
| and the available contingent assets are
| SSO,100. The property is valued at
s1.2S7.251, and the debts amount to
$S2,268.

Ruth sheahan. the s-year-old
daughter of John Sheahan, of GA
Buchanan street, was the victim of an
unusual accident at her home Thurs
day afternoon.
Little Ruth was playing with sew
eral neighbor children in the back
yard at her home. She was On the
roof of a low shed and started to slide
off and drop to the ground. In get
ting over the roof the ring on one of
her fingers caught on a nail in the
roof and held her suspended in the
air till one of the boys playing in the
yard helped her down. Her weight
caused the ring to cut the flesh nearly
Off the finger. scraping to the bone on
all sides. She was taken to Christ
hospital at once, where the wound was
dressed and several stitches taken. It
is thought at this time that it will not
be necessary to amputate the finger.

society Women Of the Simple Life.
From Leslic's weekly.

III jill ANHNt' "NNe
The question has often been asked or
me: DO YOU think ~ possible for n
society woman to live the simple hfe?"
I answer that Il depends largely upon
the woman. The general idea that our
grandmother lived n more simple life
Ihan We Is hardly correct.
From one view point the life Of n
hundred years ago was anything but
simple our grandmothers' responsible
tiles were not as heavy as those OF the
women OF today. There were not the
women's clubs and so many social de-
mands upon her ability. vitality. pocket
hook and time. Her relation to life
might have been the same from a do
mestic standpoint. n ] believe the
home-loving instinct vas greater a
century ago. The years have brought
an awakening To- the woman OF spirit
OF this day. She In capable OF doing
more In her home. In charity. and In
society. and Ii ioath TO believe h n In
Fulfilling her duties Ia each of these
she In wasting her life or overtaxing
her physical strength. Her purity OF
heart and standard OF right living are
"a high az were those OF her great
grandmother. Her everyday life In re-
plete with great and noble acts OF seh-
denia, and u~nsetnshness.
