A FEW
BRIEFS
BY ALEX s. ARNOLD.
Woonsocket. r. /.

Editor Providence News:
So A few years ago the political doc
trine was plainly and emphatically ad-
Vanced that America should be governed
financially for the especial benent OF the
middle class without any particular
characteristics OF Columbus IL is easy 20
discover by guess work To whlch class
these advocates belonged. However,
selnshness of the earth earthly cannot
prevail i'm the long run over the glorious
Christian doctrine that we should remem-
Der those in bonds as bound with them'
and that IL any law leans toward any
class Il should incline favorably TOT the
poor and lowly, and not especially 10
favor those amply able TO care Tor them-
selves.
CO. do you ever pray, sonny! asked
the superintendent OF the Sunday sehool
to a somewhat stirring youth. 'Oh' yes
replied the boy, 81 pray every hlsht,
Don't YOU ever pray In the morning

CHURCH ADVERTISING.

Editor Providence News:
| see that at a recent meeting OF the
Christian Endeavor society held at the
First Presbyterian church on Clifford
street. one OF the speakers took up the
subject OF Printers Ink" in connection
with the church, and contrasted the dis
play advertisements OF some OF the large
stores and amusements with the little
notices that the houses OF worship try
and reach the people through the daily
papers.
In this connection IL does seem as If the
churches should use display advertising
IN all the daily newspapers; let the people
Know what the topic OF the Sundays SER
mon Is 10 be; what is TO be offered I'm
the way OF special music and i'm this
manner hold out special inducements, II
you choose to term IL such, to the people
VINO DO not as regular thing, attend
divine service.
In other cities Brooklyn, n. Y. for ex-
ample, the churches use display adyer-
Using and have done 80 for a long time
ana IL has come TO me that the results are
very gratifying. The cost for one or two
fair sized advertisements previous TO
sunday service would be com De rat tive
small one. and IL would have great effect.

BILL DOES NOT
TELL LOCATION
Of DEFENCES

Washington, Feb. 15-Incident 10 the
passage OF the fortifcations appropriation
bill. which was accomplished by the
house yesterday, there was a lively de-
bate. involving the difference between the
Republican and Democratic policy with
reference TO the Philippines and also the
difference between army and navy Off
GERS as 10 the place where a naval sta
ton and fortincations shall be established
in the archipelago.
The debate availed nothing so far as
the legislation was concerned, as the two
amendments on the proposition, first not
TO appropriate anything for fortihcations
In the Philippines. and second, 10 forbid
the expenditure of any money at Subig
Bay, were defeated.
The minority took some pains to make
plain the position OF Mr.. Bryan in his
campaign for the ratification OF the Paris
treaty OF peace, that Mr.. Bryan wanted
flrst 10 acquire the Philippines and then
give their Inhabitants freedom.
This was accomplished finally by hav-
ing placed in the record a letter written
by Mr.. Bryan some time ago nthe sub
ject.
AS 10 the question Of the location of n
naval station. army experts were quoted
literally against having IL at Subg Bay
and naval authorities were put on record
In favor OF a station at that place
IL was pointed out that wherever the
navy went with it's station. there the
army would have to go with It's fortinca-
tions.
The bill does not specify where these
defences shall be located. but appropra-
ties $500, coo 10 be divided between the Phil
ippinos and Hawaii. The bill carries to-
tai Of S43S3, 993 for fortihcations and their
armament. 1t passed exactly as reported
