One night the Bloomington band came down
to the lake, and many people were there also.
The boys had dragged large brushpile to
the center of the ice and had benches for the
band to sit on. I could not skate, SO [ sat
on bench and covered myself with over
coats; some boys Lit the brushpile and soon it
was warm. Men, women and children came to
the ice and sat on benches to keep warm.
While the band played some Of the skaters
played games; some did fancy skating, some
skated together, and many sat on benches to
listen. About twelve o'clock the crowd
stopped skating and came up to our house to
get their horses. Soon they were on their
way home, and all seemed to have had good
time. I have never had such good time
since then. Somehow there seemed to be more
fun on the farm. Fred Curle,

WHAT is THE SEX OF ANGELS?
churchn en- Get Into Game Of Guess in
England.

England.
London, Oct. 1O.-Regarding the dis
cussion which, as cabled here, has
been taking place in New York upon
the sex of angels, Archdeacon Sinclair,
one OF London's prominent divines, had
no hesitation on being asked the ques-
ton in expressing an opinion. He is
not quite one with DR.. Peters, who ap-
pears to have stated there is no scrip
tural authority for assuming angels
to be Of the male gender. There is no
formulated church doctrine. he says,
on the subject of angels. All opinions
about them are founded on what is
said in the Old and New Testaments in
the Bible. AS they are always repre-
sented as men. or at any rate with the
appearance of youths, the idea would
be, no doubt. that they have no sex at
all.
See. for example. Christ's words:
In the kingdom OF heaven they neith-
er marry nor are given in marriage.
but are as angels"
At the period beth of the Old and
New Tes.aments women were consid-
cred greatly inferior to men, and the
idea of angels being in the form of
females would be quite impossible. The
church always has founded its tradi-
tions on these views, and the idea OF
female angeis came in through the in-
tiuence of reviying conceptions of
heather goddesses.
