Gus positions at the peniten,iary for the
past two months. He was doorkeeper oi
the house Of representatives some years

Mr.. Clark is q brother Of City Marshal

Let There Be Light,
THE SPIRIT

These are not the words OF a phil
osopher, an Aristotle, but simple out
pourings from the urn of experience.
Ii you were giving dinner, having
a few friends over to spend the even
ing, and your coed women had pre-
pared many a little dehcacy, would
mt you feel like doing a little some
thingf And nine times out of t.,
we'll, nine, yes, every time, you
would 60 around and turn a few
switches-son of brighten up the
place-let little light in.
You want your expected guests,
your true friends, 10 come to a bright
and cheerful home. In your earnest
hospitality you would turn on the
porch light. to guide their approach
ing steps. Your home would shine
far out in the night, resplendent, urg-
ing and drawing one on and in.
Hasn't this happened1 And prob
ably this very evening it will happen
again.
THE REASON
On bright day we all feel fine
real good. So in your home, and so
without on your streets, bright lights
make one feel cheerful and gay.
Light is ever the spirit OF peace, hap
piness and real true fellowship. We
all love tive seek it.

The Country Church and The
Glorious Fourth.

II the weather is wet and the corn
late in planting, and more grass grow
ing than stock to eat it, all over the
middle west, nevertheless the Fourth
Of July is coming, and will be here
promptly on time. 1t is worth while
for farmers just now in odd moments
to think about how it may be
celebrated.
The people in the cities and towns
will plan to go to the country to get
rid of the babel OF noise from fire.
crackers and other detonators, that
is, noisepakers. The people in the
country will like as not want to 60
to town to enjoy the noise which the
townspeople seek to avoid.
Now it has been favorite notion
with US for some time that the place
where the Fourth of July can best be
celebrated is at the rural church. In
fact, we believe and have advocated
that these rural churches are the best
places in which to observe Thanks
giving, Christmas. New Years. Mem
orial Day, Fourth OF July, and any
other holiday or special day.
Why should not the rural churches
begin early to plan for the celebration
of the Fourth OF July in the church,
or if the church is too small, on the
church grounds, or in some conven-
lent grovee The country is in a
happy state when patriotism and re-
ligion are cl ,sely allied; when relig-
ion becomes patriotic and patriotism
religious.
What are the usual exercises on the
Fourth of July' Opening with pray
er-somebody connected with the
church can do that. Singing the
church choir and the people OF the
church can lead in that. The read
ing of the Declaration of Indepen-
dence-every country congregation
has some man or boy who can do
that. An Grafton, possibly twisting
the lions tail, a custom which hap
pity is largely thing OF the past; or
pointing out the duties of citizenship.
Certainly none OF these things are in
consistent with religion. In fact,
with The exception OF twisting the
lions tail (or possibly now the lap
anese neck), they are all closely con-
nected With religion.
We believe a custom of this kind
would be good for the church, be-
cause it would enable the members to
get IN close touch with their neigh
bors and understand them better.
Il would be a good thing for the COM
munity, because i. is equally impor-
tan, tos the members OF a scattered
community to get acquainted with
the best people IN .heir community,
which, nine times OUT of ten are
found in the country church.

launch was noticed drifting before the
wind and threatening every minute to
swamp. Seeing that the course of the
launch would bring her close to the
schooner. Capt. Garrett made ready
and when the boat drifted by he threw
line to her which was caught and
made fast. Considerable skill was nee
essary to get the launch alongside the
schooner. but it was successfully done

He claims that one of the men now in
custody was seen with the same razor
that Lucas had in Bladensburg the night

the train. He further asserts that other
