CONVENTION NOTES.

For IS minutes the delegates and
spectators in the Republican national
convention wildly cheered for Presi'
dent Roosevelt. The vast throng In
the Coliseum was crazy with enthusi-
asm and some people feared that the
threatened Roosevelt stampede was
about to take place. The demonstra-
ton was started by Senator Lodges
speech as permanent chairman. The
credentials committee reported. seat
Ing all the Taft delegates. and the con-
vention voted down the proposition to
reduce the representation Of southern
states in future conventions.
At an all night session Of the cre-
dentials committee Of the Republican
national convention 110 contests
brought by the "allies" were consid-
cred, the decisions being in favor OF
the Taft adherents. A subcommittee
of the resolutions committee labored
over the platform. modifying many OF
the planks. Gov. Cummins Of Iowa
became the leading candidate for the
vice-presidential nomination, with
Fairbanks a close second.
The Republican national convention
was called to order in the Coliseum
at Chicago by Chairman New OF the
national committee. Senator Burrows
of Michigan was made temporary
chairman and delivered an address,
and the other officers Of the conven-
tion were installed The question Of
the vice-presidential nomination was
no nearer settlement than ever.
With the arrival Of most of the state
delegations in Chicago, the vice-presi-
Dental nomination became the chief
topic of discussion. Many asserted
that Dolliver was certain to be on
the ticket, but the chances Of Sherman
of New York and of Vice-President
Fairbanks grew better. 1t became
evident that there would be warm
contest over the platform as many
leaders urged that the prepared reso-
lutions be materially modified and the
Taft adherents insisted that they
would not permit this. Speaker Can
non made hurried trip to Chicago to
confer concerning the anti-injunction
plank.

Strawberries are delicious in fruit

this familiar fruit on the table with
out the usual accompaniment Of
cream and sugar, 1t Is very popular
In the new form and is combined with
nearly every other fruit in the list.
A grapefruit is especially good with
Strawberries. The core and fiber of

these dainty dishes.

sERMoNETTE.

According to the word Of the
Lord God Of Israel, which he
spake by the hand Of his serv-
ant Jonah, the SON Of Amittal,
the prophet, which was Of
Gath-hepher."
Jonah was intensely Jewish,
intensely patriotic. Love Of the
land Of Israel was next to his
love for God. Loyalty to his
country was measured by his
loyalty to his God. With him
there was no conflict between
citizenship and holiness. And
for this reason we find him
active In the restoration policy
Of the kingdom, and giving that
advice and encouragement which
undoubtedly united the forces
Of the nation and prepared them
for the aggressive campaign
which ended so splendidIy In the
recovery Of the coast Of Israel.
The obligation Of citizenship
Is increased, not Iessened, by
devotion to God.
Separation from the world
and the things Of the world does
not mean an escape Of social
and political obligations to the
world.
Service to God can only be
shown by service to the world.
II Is a wonderful thing to be
the mouthpiece Of God.
God chooses for special serv-
Ice those who by ability and
training and impulse are Pc
culiarIy fitted for such service.
Jonah was a close student Of
his nations history, he knew
the promises Of God concerning
II, he was jealous for the po-
liticaI as we'll as the religious
prosperity Of the nation, and
for this reason God used him
not only to speak the words Of
prophecy concerning the re-
covery Of the territory which
Israel had lost, but also to so
inspire and unity the forces Of
the nation as to make II pos
sible for King Jeroboam to
wage his successful campaign.
OF course we must not forget
that in addition to his natural
fitness for his mission as
prophet to the nation of Israel,
he also possessed that pity and
sense of vital union with God
which made him willing and
obedient to the purposes Of
God.
To be sure his intense pa
triotism and loyalty to his own
nation proved his one weak
, ness and led him to try and run
away from the command Of God
which directed him to seek the
good Of neighboring nation
whose revival and prosperity
he feared might threaten the
safety Of his own nation, but we
find him finally yielding TO the
discipline of God and obedientIy
going on a mission Of mercy 70

obedience to God trsnscenoec
any human obligation. Well 10
