SUNDAY MORNING TALK
FIFTY YEARS AGO AND NOW.

The fact that just half a century has
elapsed since the north and south
first locked arms in deadly combat
will give special distinction and lend a
peculiar tenderness to this years OBJ
servance of Memorial day. Already
we are having many reminders of a
revival of stirring and inspiring MEM
cries. Anniversaries of the departures
of the veterans who in those days were
but beardless boys are being pictured in
the newspapers and their personal
"reminiscences are eagerly sought. The
school children are fortunate who can
hear their modest, but thrilling story
of their campaigns, their imprison-
ments and their escapes. Not too
much can be made of those relatively
few survivors, none of whom will be
here to celebrate the centennial of the
beginning of the war. Give them the
right of way in assemblies, positions
Of honor on the platforms, and lift the
hat to them on Memorial day as they
walk with bowed figures and some
thing suggestive of limp in their
gait.

ended in a string of "reminiscences, it
would fail to accomplish its largest
good. What we want is to recover, if
possible, the influence that made those
days in the early Sos great and glo-
rious. to feel the throb of the love of
country, as it touched young life at
the pillow or the forge. War is a. ter
BILE thing but there is some compen
sation for all its horrors in it's appeal
to that which is highest and most he
roic in the human breast. Those long,
four weary, bloody years witnessed
a tremendous subtraction of energy
from commercial undertakings. The
nation was poorer financially for 1t,
the development of the country in GER
tain directions was impeded and de-
layed: but over against this fact We
place the glorious record of daring as
saults upon the enemy's entrench-
ments, of patient picket duty, of I'M
complaining endurance of priVations
and loneliness, of the development OF
the spirit of comradeship and brother
illness in camp and on the field, and OF
the knitting of the country together
50 that sense of national unity at
last emerged from the conflict stronger
than ever before, so that today Massa-
chusetts and Virginia, Maine and
South Carolina are one in their devo-
ton to the flag.
Behind all this was the energizing
spirit of a great and unselfish conse-
Grafton. They were ordinary young
men. avera ging perhaps no worse or
no better than the same number of
Young men would today; they were far
from perfect, but they have to their
everlasting credit the fact that when
the crisis came and a chance to do
the heroic thing came. they did not
stop to consider whether the proposed
course of conduct was physically safe
or commercially prudent, or whether
eraf no ont Of the
transaction. Their one desire was to
show themselves loyal, to meet the
country's need, whatever the personal
issue.

). |. CABOOSE c 6 BURNED
Crew Lost Their Clothing and Mike
Padden $500 Diamond Ring

Tuesday afternoon smoke was
noticed comingH from a caboose
standing in front of the S. 1.
depot. One of the train crew rushed
in to see what the trouble was and
also TO get his personal belonging,
but the minute the door was OPEN
ed, the flames drove him back. The
inside of the caboose was all afire.
The caboose was hurriedly moved
by nearby engine several hundred
feet down the track, and all that
could be done was to throw water
from the tender of the engine,
which checked it to some extent.
The caboose belonged to the re-
gular freight No. 1896 running
between Standpoint and PASSPORT,
but for several days was evtra west
No. 26 running between here and
Eastport, The three brakemen lost
everything they had in the way of
apparel. In addition to this Mike
Padden lost 5000 diamond ring
that was in his suit case.
How the eaboose caught fire is
unknown. 1t was practically des-
troyed. No alarm was sounded,
and few people knew anything Of
the fire.

Senator Borah referred to the

Much discussion has been in
dulged in during recent years in
an effort to evolve some plan of
protecting depositors from loss on
account of suspension or failure of
banks.
The statutes of the state of Idaho
safeguard the public funds by pro-
viding that before a bank can be
designated as depository for state
or comfy funds. 1t shall indem-
Nifty the state against loss by Civ
ing a good and sufficient bond or
other collateral security, the most
acceptable form of bond being that
of responsible surety company.
The progressive management OF
the First State Bank of Bonners
Ferry believe that each and every
individual depositing monies in
their institution are entitled to as
full and ample protection as the
state and to that end have secured
bond from the Bankers Assur.
ance Company, capitalized at 500,
100000, guaranteeing each anc
every depositor against loss of any
funds while deposited in the FRS
State Bank of Bonners Ferry. Thl
company is accepted as surety TO
government deposits and befor
they will issue hond, a thorough
examination of the bank and it
assets are made and approved by

The bodies of the unfortunate

Rev. Father Kelly Delivers an In
teresting Sermon

At the services held Sunday NOR
ming, in the Catholic church, Rev.
Father Kelly gave an interesting
and instructive sermon, taking his
theme from the gospel for the Sec
ond Sunday after Epiphany: the
miracle wrought by Jesus at the
wedding feast IN Cana Galilee.
Father Kelly spoke eloquently
of the necessity for pure motives
and the grace of God in our hearts,
for success in any enterprise. The
indestructibility of any institution
built up on these principles is as
sured. while failure is the newt
able outcome when worldly motives
actuate us.
Let the. miracle of changing
water to wine, which was wrought
in Cana of Galilee, be symbolic o
the changing of the. worldly mo
tives in our hearts, to, pure heaven
ly ideals and resolutions, then on
life's happiness will be assured
even in this world.

Faith is faculty. Our bodies are
constructed with nicely beyond
description and yet each member
has distinct faculty, for you can
not see the harmony in music, nor
hear the beauties of a landscape.
No one expects us to hear a paint
ing or see melody. Our spiritual
faculties are as wonderful as our
physical. They each one have
their own work to do and cannot
do the work of the other. We can
not see love. Love, Joy and grief
are realities and yet we cannot
see them, although they exist as
plainly as anything in the physical
life. We cannot weigh hope with
a pair of scales nor measure grief
with yard-stick.
The victorious life is possible for
each one, and although darkness
may be in our lives, disappoint-
ments and all, we may rest assured
that il we will but put our hand in
the hand of the lowly Nazarie we
shall reach higher ground and be
overcomers.

THE VICTORIOUS LIFE.


Following is portion OF the SER
mon delivered at the Methodist
church last Sunday morning, by
the new pastor, Rev. Moore.
LIST John 5-4: This is the vic
tory that overcometh the world,
even our Faith.
There is tendency in the world
to give little thought to the subject
of Faith. There is cheap saying
(if you will permit the term) that
you cannot live on Faith. Now
want to make answer to that shall
low sneer by saying that you can
not live true live without Faith.
No man can live a successful life
without Faith, for it is the one
essential quality.
Some say Faith is such a SUPPLE
thing that we cannot see it or know
it if we did see it. How can we
consistently make such a distinc-
ton, for we admit that we believe
in, have Faith in the various forces
of life which are likewise unseen.
The wind, the thunder, the wireless
telegraph, the wireless telephone
and many other forces are ac-
knowledged daily, and I should
like to inquire how we can admit
of the presense of one and doubt
the existance of force that will
enable human soul to commune
cate with the throne of God and
receive an answer thereto.
The soul of man has faculties
that transcend the senses. The
mind can travel faster and farther
than the body, and yet the soul
can go deeper and farther than the
mind, and can say that my
spiritual nature is as great reality
as my physical nature. Brown
ing puts it like this" 1.-THE flesh
wear, the earth / tread, are not
more clear to me than my belief
PauPs life is good illustration
ofsthe transforming power of faith
and in one sentense he gives us {
glimpse of that power. "The lif,
that now live in tho flesh / liv,
by the faith of the Son of God who
loved me and gave himself for me-
AS we look at it this morning
there is real antagonism between
the life of faith and the world,
life, and just.her let me say tina
l cannot understand this, for {
business man does not show very
good business acumen if he doe
not expand, accumulate, and max
an honest effort to be ready {,
meet any reverses, and yet fails t.
. lift this vision of his eternal home
for faith is vision.

l want to emphasize and that
