representatives had assembled a few
minutes before, and at the door the
vice president received him and at
tended him to the chair.
The vice president then said, @Sir,

the oath required by the constitution,
which VIII be administered by the
state Of New York" The president
answered, Il am ready to proceed .
The vice president and the senators
led the way, and, followed by the rep

lodgings to the capitol by body Of

Jefferson's second Inauguration on
March 5, 1905, was simpler, if possible,
than his first.
A ceremonious Occasion.
The in&u ugu-ation Of James Madison
was the first ceremony which was
made a great occasion. The day was
ushered in by a federal salute, and at
an early hour the volunteer corps Of
militia began to assemble. So great
was the crowd that the oath Of Office
was administered in the old hall Of
representatives, now statuary hall, at
the capitol. For the first time in the
history Of inaugurations the various
branches Of the government were ush.

pomp and parade.
James Madison was inaugurated the

POWERS OF the Imagination:

PIANIST and the afternoons program
was carried out as published.
President Cooper introduced Rev
Haupt with a few words of welcome
the subject of the afternoons discourse
being "The Power of. the Imagina ton -
Rev. Haupt took the character of
Joseph for his Bible lesson, saying,
Far away, hundreds of years ago,
there lived a Syrian family, not pre-
possessing, judged by modern standards.
polygamy existed there and much that
was bad. Joseph did not get along
well with his brothers, he being a
pure minded child could not endure the
evil deeds of his half brothers. The
Bible is a marvellous book and tells
just what men were, while history s
portrayal is often unreal but of all
the characters, in the Old Testament.
the one of Joseph stands out in dis
tinction with no blemishes attached to
it. Joseph dreamed and in his dreams
was able to see a. vision of better
things, and God used, him as medium
to reveal his will to the world Joseph s
brothers hated MIN and called him a
dreamer, and cast him into pit.

Jubilant my feet,

This is ecstacy, vision, prophetic rap
ture call it what you will but it is
true. infinitely more true, infinitely
more In accord with eternal virtues
than any mere realistic description of
struggling camp. If we would arouse
the loyalty of men we must learn to
see in their commonplace struggle the
dignity and reality and worth of the
eternal. We need seers, men and wo-
men who can see back of the present
and visible the glory of the unseen and
the eternal. Men who in the progress
of truth can see the glory of the
coming of the Lord. Who can see him
in the watch fires of hundred circling
camps" IF only we have eyes to see
AL ground is holy ground and every
common bush afame with God" We
must find our cause, we must decide
and give ourselves irrevocably to our
cause, we must see in it "The glory
of the coming of the Lord" We too,
must be true unto death. For after
all loyalty must be learned by actual
toll, and endurance for our cause There
is no other way to gain glory, honor
and immortality. A mortal man can
make no greater mistake than to seek
an easy time by refusing allegiance to
any cause. We stand at the begin
ming OF new era, a wealthy prosper
Gus people. All history teaches us that

gain the blessings of good government.
Our mission is not merely to enjoy
but to preserve our inheritance for
unborn generations. As we bow and
bare our heads this day in sincere
veneration for the work and worth Of
our fathers; as we commemorate the
valor and loyalty of the past: as
we tenderly strew with flowers the
graves of our heroes, moved by all
earths halLowed memories and sacred
loyalties we lift our hands as one man
and solemenly swear:
"Thou too sail on, o ship of State
Sail on, o Union Strong and great !:
Humanity with all its fears,
With all the hopes of future years,

We know what masters laid thy keel.

In what forge, at what heat,

And not rent made by the gale.

The question mas Deen ASKED why
there should be so many fires In our
American forests when there are so
very few or none at all in the forests
of Europe The answer is this, says
Outing When the trees are cut in
the forests of Germany, France or
Switzerland, the entire material in
the tree is marketed and removed,
leaving no infammable litter on the
ground In our American forests, ow-
ing to lack of market for such mate
rial. fully one-haIf Of the tree-the
limbs, smaller branches, twigs and
foliage-are left upon the ground,
where they soon become dry and fur
nish material for a forest fire.
In the European forests every part
of the tree, including the smaller
twigs, is sold. The sale of this minor
product constitutes over one-half OF
the revenue. Hence, when the for
ester is through with his tree cutting
no infammable material is left upon
the ground Now, If our Adirondack
Iumbermen could sell the limbs and
tops of the trees instead of allowing
them to go to waste for lack of a
market, they would not be obliged to
leave the ground encumbered with the
infiammable debris and litter which is
such a prolific source of fire, and
which when ignited is SO diflcuIt 10
