Father and / entreat my children TO
maintain and defend at all hazards,
and at any cost of personal sacrifice,

atonement for sin through the blood Of
Jesus Christ. once offered and through
that alone"

flowers from the crowned heads of
Europe, was, fortnight later,

day was borne to its last resting place
at Hartford.
! As to the amount of the estate,
which is one of the first questions
! the public naturally is asking, there
! IL nothing in the will to give any ac-
/ curate idea, and the executors de-
clare that no announcement will be
made on this point until the appraisal
has been made for determining the
stae inheritance tax.
The amount of bequests and trusts,
named by specific sums is under 500
100000 but the entire residue of the
estate is left to ]. P. Morgan, Jr.,

usual in many of its features, and, ac-
cording to those two or three inti-
mate friends who have already had

A social event of dual nature made
last Monday evening a memorable one
for those who were interested in the
production Of the recent home talent
musical comedy, The College PEN
nant" The affair was a banquet and
dance given by the Pendleton lodge OF
Elks, NO. 2SS, as an expression of its
appreciation and gratitude to those
who, by participation in the show or
by other assistance, helped to make
the annual dramatic venture of the
lodge such a great success. The BAN
quet was held between the hours Of
eight and nine at the st. George cafe
and was a most elaborate affair. Be-
tween courses, the United Orchestra
rendered selections and before the fl
nal course was served many of the
songs and choruses of The College
Pennant" were sung and some of the
principal characters were called upon
to make speeches. The toasts of R.
w. Fletcher (Timothy Stubble) and
Jack Urquhart (Adolph Vudelpuffer)
were quite as good as their character
work in the recent show and brought
hearty laughs from the banqueters.
Amid the jollity of the occasion all
OF the hard work undergone in pre-
pairing for the histrionic event and
the many "call downs" from the d.
rector were forgotten. Shortly after
the nine o'clock hour the Elks es-
corted their guests to the Eagle
Woodman hall where many other
members of the order and their ladies
had already assembled, and a delight
fully informal dance was enjoyed un
