time was the pastor of church In
q little village near Boston. He sold
the words and music for S25, and often
said that 1t was the easiest money that
he ever earned.
While strolling along the beach In
his little village, during the summer
days, Rev. Mr.. Ufford Outlines noticed
an old wreck on the sands and often
wondered in his Imagination how the
old boat happened to become wrecked
and stranded, and 1t called to his mind
the fact that many human beings were
going the same way as did the old
boat.
He held an open-aIr meeting on the
village green some time after this md
preached to men about their souls and
called attention to the wreck and Of.
fered to throw out helping hand IN
any who would listen to his appeal
Going home that night, he sat down
and III fifteen minutes penned the
hymn which now has been sung In 81
languages and printed over 5.OOOOOO
times.
Rev. Mr.. Ufrord penned the lines In
$3.50, yet to-day the song is as ponu.

little Massachusetts, village nearly 20
years ago.
The author took trip around the
globe short time ago and in Japan.
China. Ceylon, italy and England
found incidents connected with his
song. In Honolulu he found the words
ana music In the Hawaiian tongue.
and sang 1t in English to the natives
in the little church and the congrega-
tion then sang back to him in their
language.
Dwight L. Moody called Throw Out
the Lifeline" his favorlte and DR.. The
odore L. Cuyler had the song sung In
his church, for he declared 1t had In 1t
more electricity than any other hymn
he ever knew.

FARM LESSONS FOR CHILDREN.
Western States Making Agriculture q
Primary School Study,

Under law in this State, writes
the Lincoln (Neb). correspondent of
the New York Sun, all teachers in the
primary and secondary grades must
be able to impart the rudiments of
agriculture to their pupils, to tell them
something Of the soil, Its constitu-
tents, its culture, how it is seeded
and how the crops are harvested. 1t
is not supposed that every teacher
will be able to farm, neither is it pro.
posed to make Of every pupil a prac.
tical agriculturist. The aim :, to In
still into the minds Of the children

IMPARTIAL RESTRICTION OF IMMIGRATION.

The questions which now confront
the American people are two-fold:
Whether there should be any restric-

what that restriction shall be based
Self preservation, we are wont to say,

can republic exists for the illustration
and propagation and the maintenance
of certain ideals of civic government

DIR. MORGAN RESIGNS.
Passionate of Derby Unitarian Churcl

Passionate of Derby Unitarian Church
To Go to Albany.
DR.. w. S. Morgan, minister Of the
Unitarian church in Derby read his
resignation to his congregation last
Sunday. He has received and accepted
call to the First Unitarian church of
Albany, N, Y, and in a letter announc-
ed the fact to his congregation.
A meeting of the Unitarian church
has been called for Thursday evening,
December 6, in the lecture room of the
church at which meeting action will
be taken on the resignation.
During the six years that Dr. Morgan
has been minister of the church, he has
ne a remarkable work. When he
came here there was no church organ
ization, just a few Unitarians were
banded together He organized the So
! ciety, built with the aid of the Ameri-
can association, the church which now
stands at the corner of Seymour and
Atwater avenues This church cost
between $4,000 and $4,000 and the
greater part IF the cost has been paid
He has placed the church on good
working basis and in leaving it will
leave it in a position to easily take care
of the de6t now upon 1t. This is the
/ first Unitarian church to be built in
Connecticut a fact that reflects great
/ credit upon the rrinistor and upon the
I congregation. In addition to having
built the church, he, with the assist
4 ance of the members Of the church and
donation from Andrew Carnegie, has
established an organ fund amounting
4 to $725 The church is quite g. flourish
ing one numbering now over Is mem
| hers.
DR.. and Mrs, Morgan have made
many friends during the time of their
residence in this city, and there friends
will regret their departure. although
rejoicing at the fact that he is to go to
larger field of usefulness. The AL
bany church is large one. Dr. Nor
gan, while attending Unitarian con-
ference in Albany some time ago,
preached at this church and the call
came as a result. He was not eandi-
date for the position. During his resi-
dence here he has received several calls
4 to other places, but has preferred to
remain here to complete the work that
he had commenced.
