SCARCITY OF MINISTERS
THIS WAS ONE OF THE IMPORT.
ANT MATTERS UP FOR .coNsID-
ERATioN-NIcHoLsoN IN AN
ADDRESS. Il

The annual session of the committee
on ministry and oversight of the
cighty-ninth annual Yearly Meeting
of Friends, which convenes tomorrow,

responsible work of the Yearly Meet

Is the question:" he averred, that
must have the earnest thought and
careful analysis of the ministers and
overseers. .,
Have No Pastors.
1T Is fact he continued, that
twelve large meetings have no pastors.
The cause must be found and we must
be able In measure, to satisfy these
things. But we must be careful" he
declared. that we do not crowd the
women out. N-
eve have often heard the remark,
the poor Quaker minister In large
measure that is now SO. The young
people are told that it is a hard life
and rough road, but that is not al
together true. 1t is place where we
must be tested. We must keep out
the men and women, however, who are
in the ministry as profession and
living"
The substance of his talk was salts
factory to many of the ministers and
laymen as expressions of assent were
spoken by several. Timothy Nichol-
son added the following brief COM
ment: ut is also the duty of the cid
ers and overseers to lend the pastors
their thorough support"

Now one does not have to go into

in the sketch is made of a wooden

and the cretonne to cover it was 30
cents a yard. Sometimes one finds
very pretty cretonnes for less-per-

not as fine. but are quite as effective.
The packing case may be bought at
any small shop. Paint the case with a

Story Of How cosnomen Of President

Washington.-The following order
was issued recently:
The secretary of war, by direction of
the president. has instructed the chief of
engineers of the United States army to
take the necessary steps 10 restore the
name of Jefferson Davis as secretary of
war TO Cabin John Bridge.
Cabin John Bridge is a grea.. stone
arch, until recently the largest in the
world, spanning a picturesque gorge in
the upper Potomac valley, seven miles
west of Washington. This arch sup
ports the aqueduct through which the
water supply of Washington flows and
also serves as highway bridge on
that much-traveled way-the Conduit
road. The mutilation of the arch has
been commented on by millions of peo-
pie and although the subject is an old
one the real story of the erasure of
Davis name has only lately been told.
The erasure has been yariously
charged TO Gen. Montgomery C. Meigs,
chief engineer of the construction of
the Washington aqueduct, and TO Ed

der President Lincoln Neither of
these was responsible. The order for
the erasure of the name was given by

THE CRACKING OF PAINT.
Property Owners Can Save Money
by Learning the Cause.

Do you know what is wrong when
paint peels, or cracks, or otherwise
necessitates premature re-painting?
Well. sometimes it hasn't been
properly applied-the surface being
damp or there being too much turpen-
tine or too much drier.
But, nine times out of ten, the
trouble is caused by adulterated
white lead.
To avoid all such trouble, every
houseowner should know in a general
dition to receive paint, what kind Of
primer and finishing coats different
surfaces require. and how to avoid
adulteration in materials.
A complete painting guide, includ-
ing a book of color schemes, specifi-
cations for all kinds of painting work,
and an instrument for detecting adul-
terations in painting materials. with
directions for using it. can be had
