The twin Episcopal churches, one or
which George Washington planned and at
the other was regular attendant as well
as a member of the vestry-the Pohick
Church. near Mount Vernon, and the
Fails" Church at the Virginia town of
that name-are located d few miles from
and on roads leading to Washington city.
They were picket shelters for both armies
and suffered from the ravages of war. The
Falls Church was used at different times
as stable and a hospital the wounded
soldiers from the Bull Run battlefield were
temporarily cared for here, and the re-
treating army, dusty, tired and sick with
fear, rested moment in the shade OF the
surrounding trees and >quenched Its thirst
at neighboring springs.
The practice of using churches as hos
pitfalls was general, nearly all of the
churches Of Washington and Richmond be-
ing pressed into service. Churches also be-
came field hospitals because Of their prox-
unity to battlef1elds. In this humane work
of housing the sick and wounded they were
more nearly fulfilling the purpose for which
they were dedicated than when the ex-
igencies of war demanded their use as
stables and arsenals or as forts and pris-
ons.

What a wealth of historical lore can be
cleaned from the old churches, All that
remains of the Oldest permanent EngHsh
settlement in America-Jamestown-t the
ruins of the church tower, the bricks of
which are tightly bound together with
roots and Ivy stems. The editice of which
this pile OF bricks was part is the success
sor of earlier sanctuaries built on the same
plat of ground one of which, musty records
tell us was luxurious in its establishment,
kept passing sweet and trimmed with div
ers flowers" Boosting a walnut communion
table cedar pews and pulpit, and a font
hewn out OF single log and shaped like an
Indian canoe. The lord governor and cap
tain general attended church in state, &C
companied by his counsellors and captains,
with a guard of halberdiers arrayed In
fair red clokes" That church was built
in 1911 and replaced a rude log building,
which was in turn antedated by the first
church on the island constructed out of
awnings and old sails taken from the YES
sells and fastened to trees.
In the downtown districts of our eastern
cities into which humanity pours in a CON
slant stream during the morning hours and
rushes forth pell nell at eventide. a few old
churches struggle for breathing space be-
tween tail honeycombed office buildings and
mammoth marts of trade Other churches

Cheerfulness is an excellent wearing
quality. II has been called the bright

ing constant wear and tear How is 1t
that we see such men Lord Palmerston
growing old in harness, working on vigor-
ously to the end? Mainly through equanim-
ity of temper and habtual cheerfuness.
They have educated themselves in the habit
of endurance. of not being easily provoked,
of bearing and forbearing. of hearing harsh
and even unjust things said of them, with
out indulging in undue resentment. and
avoiding worriting, petty and self-torment-
ing cares. An intimate friend of Lord Pal
merston. who observed him closely for
twenty years. has said that he never saw
him angry, with perhaps one exception; and
that when the ministry responsible for
the calamity In Afghanistan, of which he
was one was unjustly accused by their OPP
ponentS of falsehood. perjury and willful
mutilation of public documents So far as
can be learned from biography. men of the
greatest genius have been for the most
part cheerful. contented men-not eager for
reputation. money or power-but relishing
life, and keenly susceptible of enjoyment,
as we find reflected in their works. Such
seem to have been Homer. Horace, Virgil.
Montagne. Shakespeare and Cervantes.
Healthy serene cheerfulness is apparent In
their great creations Among the same
class of cheerful-minded men may also be
mentioned Luther. More, Bacon Leonardo
da Ninci Raphael and Michael Angelo.
Perhaps they were happy because con-
stantly occupied. and in the pleasantest of
all work-that of creating out OF the full

the only tools required in the construction
of their primitive meeting houses. And the
builders of these earlier churches later on
laid the foundation stones of the republic.
Our temples of peace chronicle not only
the story of the spread of new schsms or
the upbulding of old cults; of a warfare
waged against the flesh and the devil"
but of temporal conflicts well-frst with
a savage enemy, later with the mother
country, and again when civil discord was
rampant in the land.
During the French and Indian wars the
New England log meeting house served in
a triple capacity: block house, town
hall, and as a place in which to hold divine
worship. The window openings of these
structures were made small and placed nigh
above the ground to protect the worshlpers
within from the arrows of hostile Indians.
The beat of the drum often called congre-
cations to the service, to which the men
carried their muskets, stacking them round
a post in the middle of the meeting house,
with powder horn and bullet pouch slung
across their shoulders. The minister
prayed and preached with his gun standing

LONDON, August 19.-Gen. Booth has re-

health. He was too busy Immediately after

What are your views on Mr. Rider Hag-

II agree with what Mr.. Rider HaGgard

for years. I consider ii is the best thing
to place the surplus population of the
towns in settlements in the colonies 1t
would be for the advantage of all. be-
cause the colonies need labor. But you
must be careful what people you send out.
The people must be suitable to the work.
They must be honest and ready to face
hardships The thing to do is to get a
grant of land send number of men
out to prepare it. Then when 1t is ready
you send out your colonies by attachments.

the amount being determined by the mans
means. This sum he would pay back by in
stallments extending number of
years. If it is done in this way 1t is bound
to be a success. morally and financially"
Mr. Rider Haggard points out that a
considerable loss was incurred over some
of the Salvation Army farm colonies in
American
That Is true. The loss was due to the
fact that the settlers were not charged
enough for their land. The officer In charge
was far too generous. l intend to take the
matter in hand again myself for there is
absolutely no reason why any money
