GERMAN CHRISTMAS TREE.
A Unique Device Thai Suspends From
lhe Ceiling.

A Christmas tree that stands on
its head, as it were, is novelty at
Germantown, and a curiosity to all
who have seen it, and many of whom
want TO see il again.
Instead of standing On the floor ,r
ground, as most Christmas trees do,
this one is suspended from the cell
ing. 1t is said to be strictly German
fashion for Christmas trees to stand
on their heads in Bavaria, whence Mr..
and Mrs. Garrison came. at whose
home this typical German Christmas
tree is trimmed. The tree is most
unique. A series of graduated hoops
each trimmed with cedar and holly and
tinsel. is suspended from the ceiling
to form q bell 500 candles light it..
From this is also suspended large
glass balls, and handsome clapper
for the bell made OF tinsel. The effect
is novel and pleasing, and quite hand
some. 1t is understood the manage
ment of the Christmas entertainment
at ST. Martins Lutheran Church
would like the loan of this German
Christmas" tree for their entertain
ment.

No Krag'' could have had more

NJ knock formation" as in days

the Naval Academy, so its seems,
and all things have become new, even
to the elimination of the mock for
nation Christmas morning. This
means that the order of things is re-
versed that the plebes are allowed
"just this once" to take the place of
first cIassmen, to give orders, etc.,
etc. The poor plehes were figdrativs-
" given a slap in the face this
C1istmas morning, because there was
no mock formation" or mock orders,
and the dignity AMI serenity of the
usual course of daily events at the
Naval Academy was not disturbed,
much to the disgust of those who had
anticipated an event as old as the
navy itself.

and state, and the persecution of dis.
senters: therefore.
RESOLVED, That we respectfully,
but earnestly, demonstrate against the
passage of this bill, or any other bill
requiring the observance of Sunday
as a rest day which may come before
the Senate.
Similar resolutions were passed in
every one ofth 1000 Seventh Day Ad-
ventist churches in the United States,
thus showing that about 10000 mem
bers in this denomination alone are
strongly opposed to any kind of Sum
day legislation.
Elder MacLafferty said the reason
Seventh Day Adventists are so vigor-
ously opposed to the Johnston Sun
day bill in Congress is because the
passage of it would be the first step
towards the union of church and state,
which would ultimately bring perse-
cution upon dissenters. 1t was stat
ed that not only are Seventh Day Ad-
ventists opposed to Sunday legisla-
ton, but also thousands of others who
love religious liberty.
In giving further reasons why his
denomination is opposed to Sunday
legislation, Elder MacLafferty said:
"Our denomination has always stood
for the entire separation of church
and state, and has earnestly opposed
all attempts at religious legislation.
Sunday laws we believe to be reli-
gious laws; therefore we are uncom-
promisingly opposed to all legislation
in behalf of Sunday observance. Sun
day is a religious institution; it's OBJ
servance is a religious act; law en-
forcing that observance is religious
law; therefore we believe it should
not exist in this country. We would
be uncompromisingly opposed to any
legislation for the enforcement of the
seventh day of the week. The Sab
bath is a religious institution, and
it's observance is a religious act, and
from our standpoint it would be en-
tirely wrong for the state to attempt
any legislation for the observance of
the seventh day of the week. The
same may be said regarding baptism,
prayer, or anything else pertaining to
religion. We believe that Christ, the
founder of the church, taught the
complete separation of the church
from the state; and this, we believe,
should be the attitude of every pro.
fessed follower Of him
"Now, as to our attitude regarding
a law to close the saloons on Sun
day: It is we'll known by all who
know anything about Adventists that
they are uncompromisingly opposed

NOTED SINGER
TO CIVECONCERT
Sebastian Burnett, Visiting
Brothers, Has Consented
to Sing in Concert

Definite decision was reached last
night by Sebastian Burnett, noted
European tenor, now visiting in this
city with relatives to listen to re-
quests of friends and appear in con-
cert here. Mr.. Burnett has agreed
to sing the evening of Thursday, Jan
uary 80, at the Grand theater and is
now arranging program for the ev-
ening. This program will consist in
numbers in French, Italian and Eng
lish, with offerings in the latter lam
guage predominating. Mr.. Burnett
believes that the American and Eng
lish ballads which he makes part OF
his repertoire will be more apprecia
ted than the intricate arias from
foreign operas, though he will not
slight operate music by any means.
To small circle of friends one
evening this week, Mr.. Burnett sang
several numbers and all were delight
ed. Mrs. w. Y. Croxall, teacher of
voice, and we'll known for thorough
knowledge of voice culture and music

read as follows:

character, in that it is designed to
foster the religious observance of
Sunday, and.
WHEREAS. the exemption clause
attached to one of the sections of
this bill indicates most clearly its
religious character, by exempting
from the application of this section
those who belong to a religious So

Of the week than Sunday as Sabbath,
