Miss Copeland.
Official in Charge

The special sacred song service
conducted by Miss Mary E. Copeland
Sunday night at the Congregational
church was well attended, and every
number on the program was rendered
with such efficiency and spiritual
power that all present pronounced the
service full and complete in spiritual
blessings, because the whole gospel
message, including the Divine mean
ing of the crucifiXion, resurrection, as
cension and second coming of Christ,
as biblically taught, was brought out
wildly, and some gave expression to
seeing the truth of the gospel in
new and fuller light Go Home and
Tell What Great Things the Lord
Hath Done For Thee" was one of the
most helpful numbers on the program,
and a fitting climax in the service.
The pastor announced that Miss
Copeland has only given a little for
taste of the best, as she will give a |
public recital at the city hall a |
week from tonight, Tuesday, June
the 2Sth This recital will include a |
arge number of the highest grade |
vocal pieces ever heard in Palestine,
and will be artistically rendered by
Miss CopeIand's specially trained
yoice, which never fails to charm the
musical ear. Tickets will be on sale

Will merchant who is wise
Ever cease to advertise?
Yes-when the trees grow upsid
down;
When the beggar wears a CROWN
When ice forms on the sum-
When the sparrow weighs ton;
When gold sovereigns get too cheap
When women secrets keep;
When a fish forgets to swim;
When Satan sings hymn;
When girls go back on gum;
When the small boy hates drum:
When no politician schemes;
When mince pies makes pleasant
dreams;
When it's fun to break a tooth
When all lawyers tell the truth;
When the drummer has no brass
When these things all come. TO pass,
Then the man that's wise
Will neglect to advertise.

RAILROAD COURTESY.

The announcement that the Union
Pacific is going to establish school in
which it will teach its employees the art
of courtesy to the travelling public is Of
interest as showing the growing belief
among modern railroad men that it is
to their interest to have the good will
ofthe public.
The day of the public-be damned
railroad man is over. 1t is a fact that
some of the old timers find it difficult
to realize, but it is fact, nevertheless.
The public refuses to be damned these
days. 1t has come to recognize that
it has certain rights which even cor
porations, and among them railroads,
must recognize. And as the years roll
by it becomes more insistant that those
rights shall be observed. An editor
ial writer in one of the railroad publ.
cations short time ago said it was his
belief that most of the feeling of the
public against railroads was due to the
treatment received at the hands OF
railroad employees with whom it came
in contact, and that if these men were
taught good manners, polite attention
and all that, much of this telling would
disappear. Perhaps it is this belle
that actuates railroad officials in lie
manding nowadays that their employee
shall be courteous in the treatment o
patrons. Express.

GREATER IRELAND.

A liner Just arrived from Queens
town includes in its freight several
boxes of Irish soil, which has been
brought over by Irishmen to be placed
where President Taft will stand when
he lays a corner stone at Chicago Oh
st. Patrick's Day. Accompanying
the soil were other boxes filled with
shamrocks. The Irish are people OF
sentiment and glory in the fact. AS
Americans they retain the trait and
are appreciated for their warm hearts
as we'll as manly courage, energy and
ability. A Greater Ireland has
sprung up in this country through I'M
migration. 1t is in the United States
that the Irish strain of blood has had
q fair field for the first time, and its
America history can be traced in the
biography of distinguished statesmen,
soldiers and captains of industry. A
reader of Grants memoirs will notice
that his RICH; hand in bringing about
the end at APpomattox was the son OF
Irish parents. When. in the early
spring of 1865. Grant had a personal
interview with Sheridan, and the lat.
ter agreed positively that the end
could be forced at once, the command.
er in chief gave his orders for final
effort. The general sprung from poor
Irish emigrants accomplished for his
part all and more than he had promis'
ed.
Whatever Ireland may get in the
shape of home rule the Greater Ire.
land must always remain on this side
of the Atlantic. Beautiful as is the
Green Isle, and filled with inspiring
traditions, it is a small bit of land com.
pared with the continent in which
transplanted Irishmen and IrishwOm.
en- have reached their best material
conditions and find their best broad
opportunities. When Thackeray
wrote his sketches of Irish travel in
1912 the famine in the island was near
at hand, but sharp as were his literary
perceptions he failed to see the Omin
Gus signs or to realize the catastrophe
that single bad harvest could bring
about. He was q student of character
not of economics, and vet he was get
ting close to the material affairs of the
people. Probably no Englishman ha:
ever understood the Irish, nor ha:
England ever been able to assimilats
the race giving it scope to make thu
best of itself. The United States ha:
afforded the chance, and it has beer
we'll improved. Irish-Americans hav'
their full share of what goes on il
America, and even ifthe population o
Ireland continues to decline the rac'
