or less veneration and respect for
the teachings of their childhood,
and no matter whether or not they
attend divine services regularly
they would feel very badly if the
religious observance Of the Sabbath
should be done away with. And to
thousands the announcement that a
minister Of the gospel had conde-
scended to give his sanction to a Sum
day evening dance by attending
and conducting short religious SER
vice between the numbers, came as
distinct shock. The proportion of
the religious service, about fifteen
minutes in all, to the dancing, was,
as the Oregonian has aptly expressed
it, about the same as that of SINGER
ity to pretentious folly in the affair.
A church service should be made en-
tertaining and instructive. 1t should
not be made vulgar and common.

On Tuesday next it will be the
privilege as well as the duty of the
voters of the county to go the polls
and select their choice of candidates
for the various offices to be filled at
the November election. Each voter
should consider carefully the quail
fications of every candidate whose
name will appear on the primary
ballot and should use his best judg-
ment In casting his vote. The No
vember election, SO far as concerns
this county. is simply matter Of
form, the nomination Of any candi-
date virtually meaning his election.
The Islander urges that every voter
cast his ballot in order that there
may be a full expression Of opinion.
Don't stay away and later complain
about the result. Every vote counts
and yours may be, the one to elect
the man you believe to be the best
fitted for the office sought.
