Why We Ought to Go to Church

- N the good olden days the Sunday sermon vas the inteIectua treat of
n the week, the main topic of conversation from n Sabbath to another
- That day is forever past. Books, magazines, daily papers, entering every
home, are preaching ermons or the moral issues of life every day Of the year
still speak with authority on the sprf tuala aspects of truth. The pulpit plat
the preachers personality, can make a n appeal to the emotions. the imagina-
ton, the willis such as cannot come from HI printed page.
But aside from the sermon ITSELF, be it inspiring or otherwise, people
ought TO go to church to worship God Should there ever arise q genera
that forgets to worship 1T appointed times and places, moral advance

this instinct. The church has always been too closely Identified with the

A Question of Carfare.

Dear Margery Doom:
Nearly every morning I travel on the
same car with a young man friend. He
always pays my fare. which makes me
uneasy. Should I let him do so? He
is on the a when I get in, and I feel
like sitting somewhere else for that very
reason, only I know he will be offended.
PERPLEXED.
The best thing to do is to have your
fare ready to hand TO the conductor
the moment he appears. If the young
man protests, tell him, as nicely as
possible. that 1t makes you uncomfort-
able to have him pay your fare.

THE ELUSIVE WAISTLNH.

In the many forms assumed by the
corselet the tendency is now toward the
waistnne being once more relegated to
it's normal position.
It is likely that the spell which the
charm OF the empire gown has woven
around us will continue to affect the
place of the waist for some time, and
that the high waist will not be entirely
forgotten for many months, but its
adoption is no longer universal, and in
the modified forms of the princess
especially the waistline Is normal.

Curious Mourning cu,tor.

complex system of rites and ceremo.

dies. the widow paints herself all over
with white pigment, and for the space
OF year must not exhibit herself to a
male member of the tribe on pain Of
death. For the rest of her life, unless
she marries again, which is sometimes
allowed, she must not speak, but com.
municate with the other women bv
means Of a sign language. CONSISTING

Explanatory Letter.

Explanatory Letter.
Lewis Penwell, secretary of the
company, today sent out letters Civ
ing detailed account Of the affairs
of the company, which is self-ex-
planatory. 1t follows:
At the meeting of the board of di-
rectors of the Montana Wool Crow
ers' Commission company, held in
Helena, Montana, Wednesday, Sep
tember %, 1909, the replies received
from the stockholders of this company
to the circular letter which had been
previously mailed to them were can
holders wished to have the company
cease business and distribute its assets
among them. Complying with the ex-
pressed wishes of the stockholders, the
board OF directors authorized dis
tribution to the stockholders of the
assets of the company. The total
paid in capital stock Of the company
amounts to $l0,145, or LOLA IL shares.
The net earnings to date are $2,880. As,
or net earnings of 2848 per cent on
the capital invested. There being no
debts, the assets amount to $l3,03405,
being equal to the capital took plus
net earnings.
Serves Its Purpose.
1t is believed by your directors that
this company has met with full
measure Of success; and that it has
served in an unqualified manner the
purpose for which it was organized
1t has been in existence for two and
a half years, but actually transacted
one years business only-the wool
clip of 1908. During that season it
handled 100000 pounds Of wool for
its subscribers at very moderate cost
both in commissions charged ship
pers and in office expenses, SO that
the stockholders and shippers re-
ceived every possible advantage. 1t is
believed that nearly all Of those who
shipped through this company during
1908 were we'll pleased with the re-
turns received; many have written the
company so expressing themselves.
Chicago Endorsed.
Tt has been thought by many stock
holders, however, that the formation
Of the National Wool Warehouse &
storage company at ChlcagO rendered
the further existence Of this company
unnecessary and this is the most
cogent reason for disbanding. The Ma
tional Wool Warehouse & Storage
company has opened up under very
auspicious circumstances and is ex-
pected to serve every purpose for
which the Montana Wool Growers
Commission company was organized
and probably do further and more
extended service than could be done
by this company.
1t is hoped that the members of this
company will give the National Wool
Warehouse & Storage company all
encouragement possible, as it would
seem to offer great protection to
the wool grower, and assist him in
realizing the best possible returns in
| his business undertakings.

REWARDED FOR HIS TRUSTING.
Shoemaker's Faith in Providence Ev,.
IDENTIFY Was Not Misplaced.

The pastor of a negro church in a

his weekly visit, when he dropped in
upon a member of his congregation
who was a shoemaker The preacher
was surprised to find that his parish.
oner, usually of a bright and lively
demeanor, was on this occasion in
an extremely respondent mood.
"Well, doctah," explained the shoe
maker, sadly, in response to the di.
vines question, Use just got a rival
shoemaker dat's set up ag'nst me

Come, come, man." expostulated the
clergyman, "you mustn't allow your.
self to be cast down like that! Meet
your trouble like a man, and, above
ali, trust to Providence and all will
come right"
When, on the next round of visits
the minister called again on the shoe
maker, he was delighted 20 find the
cobbler as CHEEKY and gay as ever he

LIKED THE FIGHTING APOSTLE
Name Of St. Peter Appealed to Heart
Of Soldier.

It is we'll known that Elias Howe,
the inventor of the sewing machine,
not only enlisted as common soldier
in the ranks of the Seventeenth Con
necticut regiment, carried a musket,
and did full military duty during the
war, but at certain juncture, when
national finances were at low ebb,
he paid soldiers out of his own pocket.
Relative to this incident, P. T. Barnum
used to tell this story:
while Mr.. Howe was counting out
the money referred to, a stranger, who
was a clergyman, entered the tent and
said he had heard of Mr.. Howe's lib
erality and had called to ask him to
contribute toward building a church
for his congregation.
"'Church, church, said Mr.. Howe
without looking up from his bills he
was counting; building churches in
war times, when so much is needed to
save our country! What church is
it?'
est. Peters church, replied the
clergyman.
"'Oh, st. Peters,, said Mr.. Howe;
well, St. Peter was the only fighting
apostle-he cut a mans ear off. I'll
go $500 on st. Peter, but am spend
ing most of my money on saltpeter

THE ELECTION TOMORROW.

The election on the question of is
suing bonds for the proper equipment
of our school system in this city will
be held tomorrow. The matter has
been thoroughly discussed. and the
necessity for enlareinG our school IA
cilities is admitted by every citizen
of the community who has given the
subject any thought at all.
In the election tomorrow every
qualified elector under the State Law
will be permitted to vote and a city
registration certificate not being re-
quired.
The voter should remember that 1t
is not I matter Of personal interest
or benefit to anyone individual more
than another. No one should vote
for or against the bond issue think
inc that he is favoring any citizen or
not favorins any citizen. It is a
question which involves the entire
community. It not only affects those
who have children to educate but
those who have no children should be
lust as much interested in good
schools, we'll equipped, as those who
have children to place in the schools.
, The school does not belong to the
trustees nor to the committee of cit
nens appointed to cooperate with the
trustees in submitting the needs of
the school to the people Of the COM
munity.
Every citizen Of this community
should feel that the school is his
school as much as it is the school Of
any other one person.
It should ne remembered also that
in voting for this issue Of bonds
which is proposed, that the tax for
the bonds remains the same as it has
been since the erection Of the present
school building.
It should also be remembered that
if new buildings are, not put up the
board will be forced to rent school
rooms somewhere in order to accom-
modate the children who are apply
ing for admission.
We certainly hope that Newberry
will not put itself in the position OF
opposing the erection of the very
best and most modern school build
ings for the enlargement Of our sys-
tenn.
