CLOSING EXERCISES
At Miss Catherine Murphy's School

The closing exercises of the Mid dle district school, taught by Miss Catherine Murphy, were held on Friday of last week. Quite a num- Der of the parents and friends of the school were present and were very much pleased at the progress made by the school and the satisfactory manner in which the little misses and gentlemen behaved themselves in the singing and recitations. Miss Murphy certainly has the work among the children at heart and they love her, so much so that it is hard work to get the little tots to stay at home. After the exercises, which were held in the school build ing, the children enjoyed picnic out of doors and had much fun. Blankets were laid for the children and the good mothers had sand wiches, cake and lemonade for all. MT Tiemann, who is an artistic photographer, took some pictures ot the scholars. The program, which was well rendered, follows: Welcome, eight children. Recitation, Helen Northrop. We little boys,' Francis Ray. Little ChatterboX,' Gussie Bremen The Big Bite," Millicent CaVanaugh.

MASONIC SERVICE.
Impressive Sermon at Trinity, Sun. day Afternoon, by Rev James
 II. George.

The Masonic service at Trinity church, Sunday afternoon, at 1 o'clock, was attended by Worshlpful Master Peale and about 35 members Of Hiram lodge, No. IS, r. & A. M. Rev 0. 0. Wright read the prayers, Rev Hardin George the lessons, and the sermon was preached by Rev James II. George, rector of Trinity MT George gave an eloquent and practical sermon from the text, Thus he showed me, and behold the Lord stood upon a wall, made by a plumbline, with a plumbline in his hand. And the Lord said unto me, Amos, what seest thou? And said, a plumbline. Then said the Lord, be- hold l will set a Dlumbline in the midst of my people Israel. will not pass by them any more." "The prophet Amos," said the speaker, lived in the latter part of the fisto- ry of ancient Israel. He was sent to reproye that people. He was q man living far from cities. This simple man from the country is Sent to one of the great gatherings of the people of Israel. There he tells them of Gods vision. A vision that could not be set aside. Gods character of eternal righteousness could not be set aside. Israel was set by a plumb line and so long as it remained true God would hold it fast. When there comes Il break in a wall it has to he pulled down and built up from the foundation. The plumbline indi- cates that which is true and upright. In the life of nations and individual men that which does not hold true to the fundamental laws of God canuOL stand. What means the plumbline? It means conformity to the great law of God But it is not simply judg- ment. It is a drawing. God draws our hearts to himself. Things that are merely of this world cannot hold the heart. There is another lesson of the plumbline. It is only by the plumbline that you can get the level. The level Undetermined by theplumb- line. You have got to have the up- right and then with square you get the level. The level shows that other people have their rights as well as we. You cannot tell what is your duty to your neighbor until you know what is your duty to God. The law of God underlies the whole of human life. I cannot do my neigh bor justice until I do it in conformity with the law of God. If we look into the law of God and then apply it to ourselves, then we understand how to erect the structure of life so it shall not go to destruction. We find these things continued in the Christian symbols. You find it in the cross of Christ, for here we have divine integritya and human sympathy blended. We are gathered here to commemorate the birthday of St John, the Baptist. Why did God give that man that training. He sent him to the people with message, His message applies to the humblest citizen and to the king himself. John, the Baptist, learned the mes- sage by studying the law of God gives us law and if we true our lines according to that law, no mat ter how tempestuous the pathway, if will finally bring us to eternal Rest.

THE MONTH OF JUNE.
By Mrs Helen M. Taylor.

Of all the months that make theyea For beautiful attractions dear, With roses, pinks, and sweet perfume It is the month of lovely June. The birds, then seeming at their best, With tuneful song, and beauty
 dressed, All Nature bright in shining sheen With lovely shades of lovely green; Ere comes the sultry days of heat When weary ones would seek re-
 treat In cooling shade, in quiet nook. Perchance by side of purling brook Or spreading branch of sturdy oak; For mute companionship, a book. To this our minds we can attune And comfort fore in month ofJune. Before the grass has grown too high And lingering violets still we spy, Before quite time for ripened cherry But in their prime the red straw
 berry. At twilight, say, in full of moon, What can compare with month of
 June. Then comes perchance across the
 Plain
 On softened zephyr borne thestrain Of music sweet from distant flute: We listen ewhile with pleasure
 mute, And thankful in our heart for boon, Of incense sweet from month of
 June.

HOME NEWS. DR GALE IN COLLISION. No One Injured, Although Two Teams were Badly Mixed Up.

Dr Gale, the popular physician of Newtown Street, was leading actor in collision which took place about 10 p. m., Thursday night, near the residence of Mrs I. B. Harris. In the intense darkness team driven by MT Read, owned by Henry B. Read, with Dr Gale as a passenger, crashed into the carriage of Allison P. Smith. MT Smith was returning from Oscar Pitzschler's, who had taken passage with MT Smith from Dr Gales office where the High School committee had been in session. Both horses be- haved splendidly. Dr Gale and MT Read were thrown over the dash board, but were uninjured. After a time the wagons were unlocked, a lantern was secured from Michael Scanlon's, and MT Reads horse was gotten back into the shafts. Dr Gale was able to go on his errand of mercy, and MT Smith continued the journey to his home. When the crash came it seemed at first as if all three would need a doctor early and after

"Brewster's Millions"

One of the most interesting at
fractions of the season will be
"Brewster's Millions" which will be
seen here at the Lyric on Monday
evening, Oct. 4th. The play is a
dramatic version of Winchell Smith
and Byron Ongley by George Barr
McCutcheon's famous and success
full novel. Frederic Thorhpson's
original company, headed by Robert
Ober in the stellar character, and
the splendid organization that ap-
peared during the long runs of the
play in New York and Chicago, will
be seen here. The production of
"Brewster's Millions" ranks among
the foremost stage effects of recent
years. Frederic Thompson is pro-
prietor and manager and in his lat
est efforts in stage effects he has
outdone his marvellous work in the
staging of the wonderful spectacles
in the New York Hippodrome. There
are thirty speaking parts in the play
which not only require capable act
ors, but also tremendous scenic, me-
chanical and electrical outfit which
has been furnished in the proverbial
Thompsonian manner. Some of
the effects are remarkable-notab
that in the third act depicting a
storm at sea, which is so perfect an
illusion that the audience is swayed
as if it were actually on ship board.
This illusion is produced by a COM
bination of mechanical and electri-
cal effects all of which owe their
origin to the genius of Frederic
Thompson and on which he holds
ten distinct patents. The engage
ment of "Brewster's Millions" here
should duplicate the enormous sue
cess that has attended it's phenomen-
al runs in the large cities of the
country.
