REV. MACCORMICK
, MAY ACCEPT OFFER
PASADENA PASTOR EXPECTED TO
SUCCEED DR.. WILKINS
Latter to Leave Pro=Cathedral to Take
Up Big Task of Raising Five
Million Dollar Fund for
the Aged Clergy

The announcement, made public yes
terday, of the invitation extended to
Rev. William MacCormick to succeed
the Rev. ]. ]. Wilkins as dean and
rector of st. Paul's pro-cathedral, has
caused much surprise in church cir
cles.
The successor to DR.. Wilkins has
been a topic of interest in Episcopal
circles since the announcement made
by the doctor of his resignation to
take up the work of raising a $5,000,-
900 fund for the aged clergy of the
denomination.
Although Rev.. MacCormick will not
decide for about two weeks, it is gem
orally thought he will accept the in
vitation, and general satisfaction is
expressed.
On presenting his resignation the
second time to the vestry, Dr. Wilkins
made it clear that he could not be
persuaded to remain in his local
charge, and the vestry of, the pro-
cathedral realized that it would be a
hard matter to find a successor to such
a successful worker and pastor as DIR.
Wilkins has proved himself during his
seven years of rectorship in the pro-
cathedral.
After much elaboration and consid-
GRAFTON the call was extended to Rev.
MacCormick, who has been rector of
All Saints church, Pasadena, the past
ten years, and who is one of the best
known clergymen of the diocese.
Rev. MacCormick has proved a sue
cessful pastor as well as an efficient
church worker and eloquent speaker,
and the vestry of st. Paul's feels con-
fident, should he accept the office, that
Rev. MacCormick will successfully
carry on the large work which will
be left by Dr. wilkins.
His Rectorship Successful
During his rectorship here, DR.. Will
kinS has seen the communicates of
the pro-cathedral parish almost triple
in numbers. He has also built the
beautiful and commodious parish
house, and has been instrumental in
raising more than $780, 600 for mission
airy and benevolent purposes, making
st. Pauls pro-cathedral in the front
rank of the Episcopal churches in the
matter of benevolence.
DR.. wilkins resignation takes effect
Easter Sunday and soon after that he
will go to st. Louis, Mo-, accompanied
by Mrs. Wilkins, to take up the large
task of raising the So 1000 900, which he
hopes to complete within the next three
years.
1t was DR.. Wilkins who put the
resolution before the recent general
convention of the church and success
fully carried it to a victorious issue.
At the close of the convention DIR.
Wilkins was named as general secre-
| tary and at that time it was feared
he would be compelled to give up his
| local work.
| His first resignation was refused by
the vestry, who endeavored to per-
suade the doctor that Los Angeles
needed him the more, and large Pc
tition was presented to Bishop John
son asking him to persuade the doctor
to stay. However, after due deliber-
alton, Dr. wilkins announced that he
thought it his duty to undertake the
work, and the resignation was ac-
| cepted, with many regrets.

Plain Words To a Young Man.

iOUbS AClAOW
The girl who works at your
slde-lf you don't watch out-will
forge ahead of you.
Honest, now
Girls are steadier, as a rule,
than boys. They are more de-
pendable. They do their work IN
best form. They are prompt and
neat. They can be trusted. They
do not loaf. They are consclen-
tious. They are pleasa MT IN their
ways.
The girls do not smoke.
They do not drink.
They do not gam BILE.
In PLAIN words, the moral char
acter of girls, partly because So
c.ety holds them to a severe
standard, Is higher than that of
boys, as rule. Is 1t not so?
Many a young man thinks char
acter Is an unlmportant factor In
business.
Don you make that error.
You cannot, must not, indulge
bad habits, blow IN your money,
keep late hours, dissipate, and
then fancy that because you show
up on time In the morning. you
will be none the worse for 1T.
In the long run you will lose
out.
You may be perfectly honest.
You may scorn to fitch a cent of
money from your employer. But
you are so made that you cannot
lose moral fiber and succeed.
You are built that way.
All about you are the wrecks
of men who shake their fists at
society and say they have not
had fair show. Most of them
have failed simply because they
have lacked MORAL BACK
BONE.
Remember, it is not simply
mice" to behave yourself. 1t is
absolutely necessary.
What does that signify?
1t means that women are to be
the cultured classes in the flu
ture. The boys stop in the
grades and go out to make mon
ey. The girls stay in school and
educate themselves. They do
not stop there. Some go to col
leges. Some join clubs and con-
tlnue their studies.
Now
Do you suppose the cultured
woman of the future can be
dominated by a husband less cul-
turedg In some cases maybe,
but
Unless present day tendencies
of education are changed trouble
lies ahead-for the men.
Oh, | know that we'll educated
girl of yours will think little of
this matter when you are first
married, and you may think
nothing of it, but the time may
come when you will be notorious
ly untitled for each other. That
way may lie domestic trouble
and divorce.
Get hump on yourself, young
man.
Or the girl will distance vdu''

The Moberg farm of 100 acres,
one of the first homesteads to be
taken up on Camas Prairie, was
sold Tuesday Of this week by
Moberg Bros. to Ben Won Tersch
for 5000, or $50 an acre. The
farm is a good one and is one of
the best known places in the
county, being located about 5
miles southeast of this place on
the Denver road. Mr.. Moberg
sold the farm, together with am
other place about a mile east Of
it, to his sons about six years
ago for $4,000 and the present
price paid for the place shows
how land has increased in value
here in the last few years. Mo-
berg Bros. still retain the best
farm of the two and will retain
possession of the farm sold until
next spring as they have large
amount of grain stored there
which will be fed this winter.
