scented in the 18th annual convention

the district covered by Philadelphia

the sessions by one or more dele
gates from the denominations rep
resented in the association. That
the greatest amount of good could
be received by the individual school

during the convention, reaching all
the different classes of Sunday school
workers, were held. Many of the
prominent leaders of Sunday school
work in the country were present
and made addresses.
One of the leaders in Sunday

BLINDED FOR LIFE.
Dover Girl Has Tube Full of Red
Pepper Blown i'm Her Face.

Miss Lucy Burton, a young society
woman of Dover, N. j., will probably
be blind for life as the result of the
practical joke of youth, the son
of a neighbor.
Miss Burton was ascending in an
elevator at a local dry goods store
last week when the practical joker
blew tube full of red pepper into
her face. With a scream she sank
to the floor of the elevator. She
has been unable to see since the oc-
currence, and occulists hold out lit
tie hope that sight can be restored.

sunday, Day Of Lost Talsnts.

Sunday is the day for revisiting
the ancient shrines. for going back
to the fountains OF our strength,
back In our racial past, for ex-
cursions to our ancient abode by
stream and wood and seashore. for
the revival of the Joy of war, OF the
chase, and of intense membership as
found in the great team games.
The true Sunday will be partly
different for different men. The
artist condemned to office work VIII
turn to his carving, the musician to
his violin. The born teacher will
spend his Sunday with the children.
The Nimrod will to the woods, the
poet to the hills, the soldier to some
athletic contest. That which he
should have been and is not In his
daily work, each man will diligently
seek on the day given him for this
very purpose.
The forbidding OF such plous pill
,grimage on that one DAY of the week
consecrated by nature. and by the
wiser portions CT our law. TO the end
that such pilgrimage may be made,
is not truly Sunday law but law
to the effect that Sunday shall not
exist.
Even those whose goor fortune
has placed them among the express
sive trades, the lawyer, the doctor,
the business man. require some avo-
cation to keep them fully human and
alive. To the clerk, the factory hand,

Of life. their day of standing erect,
OF resuming the form and stature OF
a man.
Sunday is the day of the lost tai
ents, OF unfulfilled possibilities. the
day for keeping alive some little
fragment Of the original gift that ma
ture made. And this one day our
Sunday laws take from us, or at
least greatly impair.--Josep Lee in

Walk-in-the- Water.

FROM IaSS1er MdsdZiDe
The first steamboat to ply regularly be-
tween ports on the great lakes as me-
chanical and commercial success to the
extent of paying dividends to its owners
was the walk-in- the-water. This siHgu-
lar name was sussssted BY an incident
related by an Old naIg1tc. of the lakes:
when Fulton firStES5eamed.lis boat. ihe

Walk -in-Water.'' The man of the forest
saw the boat stemraing the current UNI

observed the paddle wheels revolving
slowly, and intuitively comprehended that
when a paddle struck the water there
was step forward The name Walk-in-
the-Water, however, being SO long, was
not generally used either in converse ton
or print. Being the only boat of her class
on Lake Erie. where she piled regularly,
she was usually designated as The
steamboat.
The historic vessel, which well earned
the title of pioneer steamboat on the
great lakes, was built early in 1918 at
the mouth of Sea jaguada creek, in the
village of Back Rock.
