AMMONIA.
BY REV A. LOCKE.

Along the Amazon and its tributaries in South America there Iare millions of Indians who know nothing about the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Who will go tell them? "Who will go for us?'' Isa. 6, 8. In the Amazon regions far in from the
 sea, Live unnumbered millions crying to
 you and to me, To teach them the way of salvation
 and peace, The highway of Heaven, through the
 Gospel of grace. They are groping in darkness asking
 for light, Calling for teachers to show them the
 right. The way of the Lord, His salvation to
 see, And ever His own and ransomed to be. Oh! Who will pity our desolate state Who will aspire to change our sad fate, And help us to place in Gods won-
 derful plan, Who died to redeem the souls of each
 clan. 0! Why should we wander all hopeless
 and dazed Amid heather darkness, the rest of our
 days; Are there no followers of God who will
 rise? And point us the way of the Christ to
 the skies? To the home of the saved where dark
 ness is OCT, Where shadows ne'er fall on the beau
 tiful shore; Where unsullied purity in full flowing
 tide And sin and its follies, no, never
 abide. 0, come to us soon, there's no time for
 delay, For our kith and our kin are passing
 away To an awful doom, a bottomless hell, For the want of the news Christ sent
 you to tell. Shall it appear that you cared not for
 our souls? That when you and are at the Judg-
 ment paroled We shall stand before you with our
 blood on your dress And you be sent to join us in the place
 of distress. Where both the unproftable servant
 shall be, Who became not a prophet of Christ to
 our need, But allowed us to die in our sin and
 guilt and shame Without ever hearing the Saviour's
 blest name. Will you, Dear Reader. join the Am azon Praying Band and agree to pray few minutes every day that God will open this region larger than the Unit ed States to the Gospel and call and equip men and send them forth into these parts? If so, send your name;for enrolment to Rev A. Locke, Easton, Conn, Long Hill, R. F. D. 5.

July 6. and s. The meeting will be un-

be the most truly national as we'll as

yention itself will be attractive enough
to repay every one in the least inter-

WHITMAN SOCIETIES
ENJOY Bis BANQUET

With some Is members Of the two
societies present, the Phrenokosmians
last night banqueted the Philolithians
in the Southern Cafe and the event
proved the most enjoyable function of
the kind ever given in the history Of
the Phreno organization.
After an excellent banquet, Prof.
William Worthington, father of the
society, arose as POSTMASTER and in an
able manner introduced the following
speakers who responded to toasts as
follows: Edward Mason, ITO the
Philos"; Maysel Cooper, ITO the
Phrenos"; Harold Ellis, when
Knighthood Was In Flower; Maude
Mallory, Dreams of Springtime";
Walter Eells, 1.-The Whitman of the

milan sprung a surprise on the Philos

from the apple tree planted by Mar

GERMANS WELCOME
AMBASSADOR HILL

REPRESENTATIVE WILL BE
WARMLY, RECEIVED.

BERLIN, May 15.-Despite the tenn
pest in a teapot that ragged in German
diplomatic circles following the an
nouncement of DR.. David Jayne Hill as
ambassador to Germany, there is every
evidence that he will be given an en-
thusiastic reception when he begins his
duties in Berlin. Highly f1attering
comments On DR.. Hills historical works
are frequent in the Berlin papers, and
one of the leading journals has de-
clared him to be "the profoundest
scholar contemporary America has pro-
duced." This is high praise, coming as
it does from a semi official newspaper
that largely reflects the opinions Of the
emperor.
Pending the arrival of DR.. Hill in
June, American diplomatic affairs are
being cared for by Secretary Garrett,
who is serving in the capacity Of
charge d'affaires. since First Secretary
Eddy left Berlin to begin his duties as
American minister to the Argentine
Republic.
Berlin real estate dealers cherish the
prospect that somebody will become
rich through the proposed purchase of
an American embassy building in the
ment of the project, the embassy and
state department have been deluged
with offers of property of every de-
scription, ranging from palatial and
princely establishments to suburban
tenement houses.

other lands are gathered today in the
little Umbrian town of Cubic, to wit

been of heather origin.
A Zero is a tall wooden pole or mast.
which passes through the middle of

and surmounted by the figure of a

Balancing a Flying Machine.

he could not satisfactorily master.
Many different methods were tried.
Some experimenters placed the center

belief that the weight would naturally

tended to seek the lowest point; but,

stability.
A more satisfactory system. espe-

broad V, TO form a dihedral angle.

elevated. In theory this was an auto
matte system, but in practice II had
two serious defects: First, II tended to
keep the machine oscillating; and sec
