Audubon School Election

The annual school election in the
Independent District of Audubon will
occur three weeks from next Monday
which will be the 8th of March. At
that time two directors must be chosen
to fill the vacancies caused by the ex-
piratlon Of the terms L. d. Phelps and
j. M. McKarahan. The former has
served nine years and the latter six
years. Mr.. McKarahan contemplates
removal and Mr.. Phelps is of the
opinion that he has served his time.
Both of these gentlemen have given
good service. We call attention to
this matter not for the purpose of sug-
costing any candidates, but to say
that the Office of school director is the
most important in the town, and should
always be filled by some of the best
men who will give the duties of the
place the time and attention they de.
serve.

WHAT is THE NATTER WITH
THE CHURCHES?
Cardinal Gibbons Says the Peoplt
Demand the Spiritual Gift IN
Preachers.

In response to the question: what
is the Mater with the Churches -
asked by Theodore Dresser, Editor Of
The Delineator. Cardinal Gibbons
says:
1t must be borne in mind that the
American people are at heart a re-
llgiOus people. In few countries are
religion and religious men treated
with more consideration. Almost ev-
cry public function is opened by an
invocation and closed with a benedic-
tion. Yet our people are falling off
in their attendance at church. There
is no gainsayine this statement.
What, then, is the cause? Many
of our countrymen do not consider
church-going as binding obligation
in any sense. Frequently it is assert
ed that we can worship God in our
onw hearts and home; we can inter-
pret the Bible for ourselves; and al
though, In reality they very seldom
do one or the other, the pretense is
sufficient to drug their consciences.
We must not lay the whole blame on
the laity. Almost any excuse would
seem to justify a man in absenting
himself from church services when
the subject Of religion, that is to say,
duty to God and duty to our neigh
Dor for Gods sake, is seldom incul-
Gated Finally, another cause can be
| traced to the fact that many societies
for the advancement Of education, for
the development of athletic sports or
for mere social purposes, have added
Sunday service such as many peo-
pie were accustomed to assist at for
merly in the churches.
What. then, is the remedy? 1t
will be found by giving to the people
in the churches something of God,
some spiritual gift, some good which
| it would be impossible for them tn
God speak as one having authority
| and our religiously inclined people
| Will throng the temples of Divine
worship. l may add that we have ro
reason to complain of our Catholic
| people. In the cities the churcho
are crowded at each of the five or sin
| masses offered on Sunday; in the ru-
raj districts, in good weather and ir
| bad, Catholics seldom find any diLi.
| Guilty so great, any condition so intol.
| cradle, as to have to dispense viii
thclr obligatory attendance at tht
| DIVINE services on Sunday"

River Graft Which Skfns Along tho
ThamoD.

Visitors to the CoYney Reach Of the
Thames at Cheswick recently, were
startled by the sight Of white and
gray whale-backed craft. some %
feet long. and not unlike an ordinary
motor boat In appearance, progress
ing at the rate Of 80 miles an hour,
with scarcely q ripple Of wash to
show her track.
This vessel marks a great step in
the practical developement Of the hy-
droplane. the principle Of which is to
attain great speed by skimming along
the very surface of the water. She Is
the embodiment Of successful expert
ments with models conducted by Sir
John Thornycroft In the course OF
last year. and Is fitted amidships with
petrol engines of some fifty horse
power. The vessel has q fiat bottom.
and under the forward keel there is
q horizontal plane to keep her
steady.
Tho most fascinating Of sensa-
tions." was the verdict of a passen-
ger as he returned from a trial spin.
AT a slow speed she feels just like
an ordinary roomy motor launch. A
touch on the lever turns her into a
thing Of exhilarating speed. There Is
stammering roar from her engines
working at hfteen hundred revolu-
tions minute and at once she filings
her head high out Of the water until
she touches the surface only with her
forward balancing paines and the
middle Of her nat stern. You feel as
II you were sitting in the stern of a
giant Canadian canoe.
"As you look back you SEQ a white
line of ruined water In her wake but

skinned past some scullers at 80
miles an hour they did not even
