dress at the annual banquet of the
Presbyterian Alliance of Washing
ton, held recently, administered a
singing rebuke to Sabbath desc
orators in the capital city. Among
other things he said Here in Wash
ington you can find trangression of
the Sabbath everywhere you look.
1t is shame that certain people
from New York with big bank rolls
should be allowed to come to our
beautiful city and give Sunday din
ners and suppers parties when that
day should be devoted to the work
of God. I wish there were some
way to stop this unwelcome influx
into the capital. 1t is, an outrage
that dinner parties are given by
these predatory rich persons on Sum-
day evenings, which should be devot-
ed to higher and better things"
This utterance from so high a
source has caused stir through
out Washington. The clergy laud
the sentiment, while those whose
conduct has caused the censure are
indignant. It is we'll known that
President and Mrs. Taft have held
to the full observance of the Ameri-

frowned upon. The French national
assembly by vote of 575 to z. leg
ally restored Sunday as day of
rest. In Germany many cities are
following suit. In Italy there went
into effect Lords Day Act en-
forcing weekly rest day for en-
ployes. In England an American
newspaper man sunk million
dollars in vain attemt to establish
a Sunday newspaper that the public
declined to buy. Samuel Gompers
says that the workingman without
Sunday is white slave, and his Or
ganization demands Sunday not as
privilege, but as right. A million
railroad men have begged for re-
lease from Sunday labor. Postoffice
employees have cried out against the
hardship. The funeral directors,
the druggists. the actors. in their
national conventions have urged the
restriction of Sunday work.

After having been under the able
Management of Bro. Aiken for the

CHEER up!

It is time the atmosphere Of fin
ancial hypochondria that has hung
over this country like a dull, gray
pail for months were dispelled by a
spirit Of optimism and courage.
And there are plenty of reasons
to stimulate this spirit of cheer and
enterprise.
The long-awaited decision of the
supreme court in the Standard Oil
case is out of the way, and it con-
tains nothing to alarm even stock
holders in the oil trust, and much
to reassure honest business in all its
branches, be they great or small.
There is an ocean of accumulated
capt. al ready to be loosed into the
CIldIlIlSlS VI III duSs
There is an approaching shortage
of commodities due to curtailed
production, so that speedy resump-
ton of industrial activity will soon
be an absolute necessity.
And in the Northwest, at least the
crops, which are the basic essential
to good business and prosperity, are
in an ideal condition. If wise mer
had devised climatic conditions fol-
the production of rich crops, they
wo:ll haye arranged them about as
nature has done it.
Cheer Up! Also. get busy!-

seemed to lay like lead in my stomach
producing heaviness and dullness and

this rendered me more or less unf
