The program November 4th was

Poulson, D. D.: piano solo, 18th

DR.. Poulson was in fine voice and
delighted his audience with a most
interesting and edifying discourse.
He paid tribute to "Man' by declar-
ing he stood aloof and above all
other orders of creation. That he
possesses three natures-physical, /
intellectual and spiritual, and these
require three courses of education.
A complete human speciman is pro-
perly balanced, cultivated and devel-
oped with due regard to each of its
subdivisions A healthy body, sound
mind, and enlightened conscience are
essential to the building of character.
That man sustains three cardinal re-
lations-to himself, to society and to
his Creator. 1t is a common and
dangerous heresy that one has right
to do as he pleases with himself and
his personal property. There is no
individual right that collides with
the rights of others. No one has a
right to injure himself. selfpreser-
walton being the first law of life.
He must also hear his part in the
social circle and in the body polite.
So far as God is acknowledged to be
the creator of the race, He holds an
indisputable right to human wor-
ship. That man is responsible for
three potential streams that issue
from the fountain head of his being
example, influence and opinions.
One pessimist in neighborhood can
counteract the wholesome influence
of a whole colony of optimistic help
ers, as one grain of Methylene Blne
will discolor five hundred times its
volume of clear water. The wise
Solomon affirns that as a man think
eth so is he. One rarely, if ever,
does wrong, if he has not first thought
wrong. If he is philanthropist who
causes two blades of grass to grow
where only one grew before, wha

Vessels Escaped Damage Despite

All along the Delaware Bay shore
a wintry blast or early blizzard Fri
day brought snow. ice, hail and slush.
The oyster fleets were driven in with
some damage by the heavy north
wind. The schooner frankie was
reported as aground in the bay, with
her yawl detached and her crew
therefore ma-ooned. but later
report said that all the fleet had
made the shore without serious dam
age. The sight of mantle of snow
over the orchards still bearing fruit
was seen for probably the first time
in Delaware; as some of the Keiffer
pears, allowed to ripen on the trees,
and some tardy winter apples are still

are nothing but barren wastes. Prac'
tically all the fields of corn are

therefore, did little financial dam
