The week has been spent not in
gayety but in worshiD-if it may be
called worship-this working at booths
and fairs and striving to win favOrs
from the Almighty by taking the
money from the easy ones. One woman
has aptly expressed the whole matter:
BLESS the bean supper and the min
strel show,
And put 1t in the hearts of all to go.
Induce the visitors to patroniZe
The men who on our program adver-
tise,
Because I've chased those merchants
tin they hid
Whene'er they saw me coming-yes,
they did.
Increase the contributions to our fair,
And bless the people who assemble
Bless thou the grab-bag and the gypsy
tent,
The flower table, and the cake that's
sent,
And when thou hast bestowed these
blessings, then
We pray that thou wilt bless our souls.
Amen"

There were a great many admirers
of American Beauties at the church fair
of the past week, but the dozen or so
who handled the flowers were consid-

sold. The flower booth itself was a

tanning about dozen of as fine look
ing specimens of the original name for
the flower as one could find.
1t is rumored that two of the best
constructed wooden Indians to be
found in the town will do stunts at a

There has been more guessing as to
what a vaudeville party is during the

Santa will bring. Those who are on
the inside say it will be something
rather good.

Blakely gave some very interesting facts
and figures showing the immense m
the dangers we are exposed to from the
vast numbers of diseased. deranged and
pauper Europeans that yearly flock to
America. At the conclusion OF the paper
Mr. Blakely requested the members to
express their views on whom we should
exclude and what our government could
do to prevent the dangers to which we
are exposed by allowing undesirable I'M
migrants to land in this country. The
discussion was animated and a variety
of remedies were suggested.

ARMOUR: PRIVATE CAR OWNER
He Controls More Than 14oo Refrlger,
 ator Cars Alone.


 From "The Railroads on Trial" by Ray
 Stannard Baker, in the January Me
 Clures.
 enormous expansion of this strange sys- tenn of private ownership of railroad roll ing stock. Examine almost any freight train today on any railroad in the coun- try, and it will be found that one or more of the cars, often every car in the train. bears not the name of the transportation company, whose lawful obligation 1t is to provide the necessaries of commerce. but the name and faring advertisements of private persons who are not common car riers at all. Today over three hundred private freight-car Nnes are in flourishine existence, operating 1S0,0OO ears And the number includes not only stock and re- frigerator cars. but all sorts of curious by-developments, private cars for break fast foods, beer, furniture. farm ma chinery, eggs, stone, lumber, lard. car riages, and many other commodities. Trains there are today which resemble nothing so much as a flying billboard, advertising everything from ueicious sausage" to perfect pickles"
 The largest single owner of private cars is Armour of Chicago who controls a dozen or more car lines an not only fruit and meat cars but many tank, cattle and even ordinary box cars-involving alto gether business of the magnitude diff cult to conceive. Of refrigerator cars alone he has over 14,000 representing an invest ment of some s14.000.000. Nearly every great trust is an owner of private cars. that is one reason. as l shall show. why the trust Is a trust and why 1t continues trust. The Standard oil comnany owns
