One OF Earth's Chief Blessings.
There are blessings in family life.
The natural life is the married lire.
Uuless there is some good reason peo-
pie should love and live together in
the heaven ordained way. The tend
ency OF young men to be satisfied with
club life and of young women with
commercial success is to be deploresd
One of the greatest blessings in the
world Is Christian home. Happy is
the man who has had a good mother
and mas good wife, for these are two
or earth's greatest blessings.-Rev. w.
w. Bastard. Baptist, Boston.
Hearing Gods Voice.
Whether We hear or not, God still
speaks to us. When we are disturbed
by the presence of elevated thoughts
surface of minds he would fain awaken
to attention. In the occasional hours
OF our profounder experience God
speaks to US from within u.s. Great
realizations throb through our minds
and staftle US with surprise which
no sophistry can quell and no art of
skepticism can exercise. All, believe
me! When the clatter of care is quiet
ed, and the evening shadows temper
our minds to meditation we shall. like
another Adam, hear the voice of the
Lord God walking in his garden of
creation in the cool of every day
Rev. DR.. J. G.. Van Slyke. Reformed,
Kingston, N. Y.
Peace of Soul.
There is nothing that men and wo-
men need today like peace of soul. The
worrying society has a large MEM
bership and IL continually repleting
it ranke. Men and women everywhere
are in need of peace and more quiet
temper of mind. It. is said that the
patron saint for women today is st.
Martha and the patron saint for men
st. Vitus. These unhappy conditions
of the soul are SHOWING themselves in
the peoples faces. There is already
the American type of face that re-
veals a worried, restless, unhappy con-
dition of soul. Men and women seek
for happiness and peace by absorbing
their thoughts on the outer world.
They establish a truce, but never es-
tablish a lasting peace. Peace ana
happiness will be found today just
where they have always been found,
and that is in Almighty God and in
Jesus Christ, whom he has sent.-Rev.
Albert J. Lord, Congregationalist, Me-
ridden Conn,

numerous fights. One night after

time the people we're taking a
hand in it, that be for one was not
going to stand for any more
rowdv business. A young man
with considerable reputation as g
bruiser said to the j. P. that there
we're men there that could tie bin
The j P. remarked to the young
man tnat II was not him. In the
meantime several we're holding The

Governor Sanders. who issued
such a fariDg platform during the
campaign, who wanted to I'll a

against a law signed by himself,

Was recalled when it was discover

That law requires the Governor to
call al election to fill such vacan-

Two arguments are said to

Two arguments are said to be
used against DR.. j. R. Olivier who
is now President of the School
Board and a candidate for re-elec.
ton, one is his stand in retaining
MIR. Hildebrsnd when he failed
to appear before the School Board
as notified to answer the charges
made against him, and his subse-
quent appointment as principal OF
the st. Martin High School,
against the wishes of a large ma
jority of the people of this town;
We do not care to 90 into the mer-
it's of the charges. but We know
the people of this town are oppo-
sed to the appointment of Mr..
Hildebrand. The second argu-
ment is the salary they are now
paying the Superintendent, which
was raised, We believe from Supt.
Cormier's salary which Was $1,000
to the present one of $500 for the
first year and $2lOO for the last
three years. The Doctor, it ap-
pears, has a hard fight on.
