THE CHRIST SPIRIT
10000 OOOONOOooOO
Written for The Citizen

There could be nothing more Christ
like than the spirit in which the Uni
tarians, through their great brother,
Edward Everett Hale. have answered
the sC-Called Christians, who refused
60 have Unitarians at their conyen-
tion-a convention at which the sol
emn question OF how best to hold the
church OF Christ together, was TO be
discussed.
/ wonder nov the churches have
dared act as they have done in this
matter. Some of the really great
minds of cur day are helping the
world from the Unitarian platform.
Theirs is such a rational. divine, and
yet. 50 human messagel They meet
the scientist so skillfully! They
handle the atheist so sympathetically!
Theirs is so rruly the gospel of love!
And for this they are shut out, by
those who should learn OF them! But
good cine from every act we do, nc
matter how unwise. People who have
never thought much of the Unitarian
movement before will look into 1t now.
There is something in human nature
that likes fair play.
Il really Is one of the grandest
movements Of the day. II says to US
Cease 20 be dronesl We are gods.
Evolve your inherent divinity, Live
the life Of the Master, Jesus, not be
| cause you fear hell, but because o.
| His example. He, the meek and
lowly One. calls out to you from YOU
own hearts, Listen TO Him. Come
unto Him and find rest!"
And this is the message the Christ
ian brethren call "Heresyi"

Another 1urder.

TOW WANDA. Pa, Nov. 28-Bradford
county may have another murder that
duplicates in all its feudishness the
famous Johnson case of last year. The
circumstances surrounding the death
OF Mary Shaylor and little Henry Mer-
ritt here Sunday are such that most
rigid investigation will be made.
At an early hour Sunday morning a
house was burned down in Towanda
township and in the fire the two per-
sons mentioned lost their lives, the
boy being but an infant. During the
hours preceding the fire there had been
a carousel at the house and at first it
was thought that some of the persons
while under the influence of liquor
had tipped over lamp and in this
manner set fire to the house.
Later developments, however, deiu-
cline to the opinion that it was a pre-
meditated crime and that the two per-
sons burned lost their lives through
willtul murder. it is alleged that
some persons burned oil through q
window into the room where the llt-
tie Merritt baby was asleep and threw
a lighted match into the room thereby
causing the balze. Ii is further claim,
ed that there were persons who have
reasons for wishing to wreak venRe.
ance on those who took part in the
carousal.
So strong are tho suspicions Of foul
play that Coroner Holcomb has in
structed Squire Hull to hold an in
quest to Inquire into the death OF she
two and it is scheduled to take place
tomorrow evening. In the meantime
Detective Guy Hollen who so success
fully worked up the Johnson case 10

Claims Half of rlt. Carmel.

A lively contest for the possession
of large section of real estate upon
which Mt. Carmel is built is schedul-
ed for the near future.
The contestant will be Mrs. William
Briner, of Reading. who was born at
Mt. Carmel in 1919. She was daugh-
ter of John Riffert. At the time of

there, the Riffert and the Leroh fami-
lies being the only occupants of the
territory that now contains popula-
tion of $1,000 people.
The land in question was considered
worthless almost, at that time, and
Mrs Briner says her father abandoned
the tract and moved to Berks county.
There are several hundred thousand
dollars worth of buildings on the
property now.
Mrs. Briner was at Mt. Carmel re-

mony to validate her claim to the
land held by her father at the time of
her birth. While in the town she was

aged claimant in childhood.
Lerch knows the town from it's earl

dotes of the good old days when the
hunter could stand at his cabin door
and shoot deer and bear in abundance,
and says the presence of Indians was
not infrequent.
