DIR. II. M. Horton came down
from the mill Wednesday and
reports the forest fire well under

danger of another serious out
break unless a high wind should
come up in the right direction.
The fire so far has done little
damage to the standing timber
Of age, but has killed large
amount of the new growth of
pines. The fire is very bad on
land that has been logged as
there is much brush and rubbish
but in the green timber the
flames have nothing but the
grass and pine needles. therefore
does not assume proportions as
it does where much dead and dry
brush is lying on the ground.

so stay there, but the transgressor

TO KEEP SABBATH HOLY.
Secretary of Lords Day Alliance
Speaks at Two Churches.

Rev. Mr.. Schelly, secretary of
the Lords Day Alliance, occupied
the pulpit of the Presbyterian church
Sunday morning and of the BIetho-
dist church Sunday evening. His
theme was Remember the Sabbath
day to keep it holy" He explained
that the objects of the Lords Day
Alliance were to preserve the Sab
bath and to oppose all attempts by
legislatures to legalize Sunday desc
Grafton. He recounted the efforts
made by the enemies of the Chris
tian Sabbath to legalize Sunday
baseball playing by the various leg
islatures. He claimed the country
was destined to be the center for
the evangeliZation of the world; ;
that we have the greatest country
on the face of the earth in climate,
scenery and resources, and in the
magnitude of our manufactures;
that the secret of our wonderful de-
velopment and prosperity lies in the
fact that we are a Godfearing,
scripture-obeying people. He spoke
of the combination of 100000 liq-
uor dealers and 100000 baseball
enthusiasts who are anxious to have
a wide-open Sunday and whose eff
forts are concentrated on the leg
islature of this state to have it pass
laws permitting baseball playing Sun
day. Their rally cry, Personal lib
erty," is a mask under which they
would assassinate the best institu-
tions of our country and destroy the
prosperity and properties of our
country Sunday belongs to God
and six days to us. Mr.. Schelly made
a strong appeal to lovers of Sunday
observance TO rally to the support
of the Alliance, in order that the
bills presented to legislative bodies
may be watched and no bill per-
mitted to pass that will permit Sun
day desecration without a protest
being made.

New York to Scranton Flight Could
BE Seen BY Wayne County Folks.

James G. Shepherd, the Scranton
man who offers $1,000 for an aero
plane flight between New York and
Scranton, knows what it is to rise
from comparative poverty to great
wealth within the span of a single
life, reaching the competency that
makes his days happy while still a
young man, at a time when he can
enjoy it in best form. Mr.. Shep-
herd has a pleasing as well as an
aggressive personality and has done
so much along certain lines look
ing to the city's advancement that
his influence is constantly increas-
ing.
The route of the aeroplane be-
tween New York and Scranton would
be almost certain to lie across this
county and Wayne people, only a
few of whom have ever seen an
aeroplane, are anxious to see some
of the sky pilots take up with Nj
Shepherds generous proposition.

SATISFACTORY SETTLEMENT
Effected In Cases of Railroads Who
Kicked Over Valuation.

H. Railroad companies and the Penn
sylvania Coal company, from the as
sessment made by the county COM
missioners resulted in satisfactory
settlement to the parties concerned,
the companies agreeing that the as

coal lands in Clinton township. The
appeals against valuation in South
Canaan, Lake, Palmyra and Texas
townships and in Hawley borough
were withdrawn.

ANOTHER CHILDREN's SUNDAY
Day Appropriately Observed at Bap.
tist ChurCh-TaIk On Familiar
Hymn.

Childrens Sunday at the Baptist
church had beautiful weather,
sizeable congregation and pro-
gram that was excellently carried
out by the children, Rev. George S.
Wendell and Supt. Trask. The
form of exercise followed was called
Make the World Brighter" and be-
sides the songs "On Children's Day."
"Our Fathers Care" "Hark On the
Breeze" Every Little Daisy" and
Soldiers True" there were the fol-
lowing recitations: Gould We I'm

Busy Bees" was given by seven lit
tie girls, all in white but one, who
wore blue
Supt. F. H. Trask in his word of
greeting showed that the boys and
girls of today are a pretty import
ant proposition, for the boys are the
future citizens and some of the girls
are future mothers, and the word
! of God as taught at Sunday school
is bound to have powerful in
fluence for the betterment of So
: ciety.
/ Mr. Wendell had no sermon, not
even talk, but he explained DR..
Robert F. Y. Pierce's emblematic
exercise, Make the World Brighter, "
| that had for unavoidable reasons
to be left out of the program. There
was no Sunday school session.
In the evening Mr.. Wendell talk
ed on the hymn, Jesus, Lover of
My Soul" which is the masterpiece
| of Charles Wesley, who wrote 5000
hymns altogether. He briefly out
lined the life of the author and gave
three reputed motives for the writ
ing of this hymn. Some have held
that Wesley wrote it at sea, when
shipwreck seemed imminent; Others
that he threw off the immortal
stanzas when he and his brother
John had fled from a mob and found
refuge in the house of friends; still
others that his inspiration was q
little bird which flew through his
window and took refuge in the
bosom OF the writer's apparel.
Mr.. Wendell spoke at some length
of the influence of hymns and told
how a gambler was converted wheI
a fellow player at cards carelessly
sang a verse of "One Sweetly Sol
emp Thought"
Next Sunday night Mr.. Wendell
will speak on Rock of Ages"
Before the sermon the congrega
tion sang Jesus, Lover of My Soul
to the new tune of Collingside anC
at the close they sang it to the old
familiar tune of Martyr, which
most people like better.
