The Now Church

The new church building of the
congregation Of the First Methodist
Church Of Lamar, which will be ded-
iostsd next Sabbath by Governor
Buchtel, is the result Of the rapid
growth Of the church in the past
four years under the pastorats OF
Rev. o. W. Auman. When he came
here the old church was sufficient to
hold the entire congregation without
orowding, but the splendid work done
BY him and the rapid growth of the
town has built up congregation
that will crowd even the new struo.
ture.
When the demand for larger quar-
tsrs became 30 imperative that IL
could no longer be ignored, Mr..
Auman assisted by the enthusiastic
boosters Of his congregation went to
work with determination to meet the
situation, and the handsome edifioe
soon to be dedicated Is the result.
The old church was torn down in
September Of last year, and the base.

building were constructed during the
fall. The contract for the main build.

MESSAGE TO The CHILDREN
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT ON THE
IMPORTANCE OF ARBoR DAY.
Benefits to Be Obtained From a Proper
Care Of the Nations
Forests.

President Roosevelt has addressed ito the
school children of the United States" a
message on the significance of Arbor day,
which. during the month of April, is cele-
brated in many of the states. He says to
them it is well that they should celebrate
the day thoughtfuly and that when they
help to preserve our forests or 10 plant new
ones they are acting the part OF good citi-
zens. The message is follows:
ITO the school children of the United
States:
"Arbor day (which means simply tree
dayD is now observed in every state in our
Union, and mainly in the schools. At va
rious times from January to December, but
chiefly in this month of April, you give Il
day or part of a day to SPECIAL exercise and
perhaps to actual tree planting. in recogni-
ton Of the Importance of trees to us as Il
nation, and of what they yield in adorn-
ment, comfort and useful products to the
communities in which you live.
1T is well that you should celebrate your
Arbor day thoughtfuly, for within your
lifetime the nations need of trees will be-
come serious. We of an Older generation
can get along with what we nave though
with growing hardship; but in your full
manhood and womanhocd you VIII want
what nature once so bountifuly supplied
and man SO thoughtlessly destroyed; and
because of this want you will reproach us.
not for what we have >used, but for what
We have wasted.
For the nation, as for the man or woman
and the boy or girl, the road to success is
the right use of what we have and the i'm
proveMent of present opportunity. Ii you
neglect to prepare yourselves now for the
duties and responsibilities which will fall
upon you later, if you do not learn the
things which you will need to know when
your school days are over, you will suffer
the consequence. So any nation which in
its youth lives only for the day, reaps with
out sowing, and consumes without hus-
banding, must expect the penalty of the
prodigal, whose labor could with difficulty
find him the bare means life.
"A people without children would face
hopeless future; country without trees is
almost as hopeless; forests which are so
used that they can not renew themselves
will soon vanish, and with them all their
benefits. A true forest is not merely
storehouse full of wood, but as it were,
factory Of wood, and at the same time a
reservoir Of water. When you help to
preserve our forests or to plant new ones
you are acting the part of good citizens.
The value of forestry deserves, therefore,
to be taught in the SCHOOLS which aim TO
make good citizens of You. If your Arbor
day exercises help you to realize what ben
efts each one of you receive from the for
est, and how by your assistance these bene-
fits may continue. they will serve a good
end. THEODORE ROOSEN ELL.

YOUNG FISH TO EARN $15 WEEK.
Asks for Job Without Fathers As
siStauce

CHICAGO. April 15.-Stuyvesant Fish, ir,
has new railroad Job, which is said to
pay him fully $50 a month. He landed the
place without recommendation or assistance
of any kind from his father, but it is
doubted here whether he will live at the

Mr.. Fish went to w. B. Biddell, vice

and now want to learn something else
I'd like to know how the traffic Of rail-
road Is handled"
Mr. Biddell pushed a couple of buttons
and presently F. Reilly, general freight
agent of the Eastern Illinois. and H.
Cover, freight traffic manager of the Rock
Island came in. Both wanted Mr.. Fish,
Mr. Gowan asserting that by going into the
Rock Island he would get much more va
ried and a much larger and wider expert
ence, while Mr.. Reilly said that the East
ern Illinois being the smaller road, he
would come more quickly in touch with
the details of traffic business.
1t was decided that Mr.. Cover was right
Stuyvesant Fish, jr., is determined to make
a thorough railroad man of himself with
out asking any assistance from his father.
