CARPENTERS AFTER
APPOINTMENTS

As the result of an incorrect article
printed today, the lighthouse engineer s
office at the old Federal building, Sixth
and King streets, was besieged with
applicants for positions as carpenters
in the service OF the government. The
article stated that about thirty men
were needed at $3.50 a day and travel
ing expenses. and that the examination
would be held to-day. As a matter Of
fact the examination viii not be held
until February %, and application
blanks must be in by the day before.
There will, also only be from two to
four positions filed about March /.
In order to be eligible for these posi-
tions applicants must possess the fol-
lowing qualifications: Must have SER
we'd regular apprenticeship as carpen-
ter must be able to perform carpenter
work from drawings. and specifications
prepared in this office: must be able
to make a written report Of work done;
must be especially familiar with house
carpentry. and must be physically
strong and active.
About forty men applied at the engi-
neer's office to-day for the supposed ex-
animation, and the employees Of the d.
partment were much disturbed by the
continual stream Of men going IN and
out of the office.
The large number of men who are
making application for positions is un-
usual, but is due no doubt to the exist
ing financial depression.

construction Of a movable wharf. which
will be built at the Pier during the spring

In an unique manner. Piles win be
driven in such a manner as to form a

Across the end Of the wharf will be
placed a third float, which viii constitute
a landing place for passengers from the
steamers which viii make daily trips be-

During the winter months ice that has
formed in the river has carried away the

when the season is over and replaced the
following year. David c. Mcclure, pro-

CRISIS OF THE CHURCH

'"rhe Chrisis OF the Church: the Need
of the Church to Define It's Attitude To-
ward the Formative Forces Of Society,""
was the subject Of discussion at the mon-
thly meeting Of the Westminster Club
OF Hanover Presbyterian Church last
night. The principal speakers were the
Rev. r. L. Jackson and DR.. Victor d.
Washburn.
Mr.. jackson defined the crisis as the
church's desire to leave many Of the prin-
clples to which It has clung for princi-
pies in accord with modern ideas. without
leaving the foundation Of the Christian
faith The church could very we'll assume
an indifference to the questions arisins
between the church and society," he said
If it desired to avoid the responsibility OF
adjusting them. II the church was 70 take
its proper stand, however, he said. It musl
seek to remedy it's differences with so
ciety.
DIT. Washburn attributed lack Of lib.
erty in the pulpit as the Feason for pres.
ent indifference to the charch. He thought
also. that there was a tendency on ths
part Of the pulpit to be self-satisfed and
unprogressive. The popularization OF
scientific knowledge. he believed, tendea
to unsettle the faith Of the people and he
thought st most important that the clergy
should assume new arms OF defense in
combating writer's who ignored the
church and religion as sosial forces.
