A Pleasant Surprise.


An interesting ceremony was con-
Quoted at the close OF the devotional
services at the church last night.
Three ministers of the district, Rev.
j. Nuesch Of this city, Rev c. Naurth
of Burlington. and Rev. j. Fisher of
Hartley, observed the twenty-fifth an
niversary Of their ordination.
Standing before the altar they were
addressed by the president general,
Rev Pister, who presented each OF
them with set Of books as a gift OF
the conference. A feeling response
was made by Rev. J. Nuesch in which
he stated that all of the twenty-five
years of his ministry were spent in
the Iowa district, sixteen of them as
pastor of ST. Paurs in this city.

PRAYING FOR PREY.
The Mantis Seems to Be Doing That
While Awaiting Victims.

The Mantis Seems to Be Doing That
While Awaiting Victims.
Most persons know the praying
mantis-that large, greenish, grass
hopper-like insect which holds up
adoring arms us if generating some
deity of the woods or making an in.
Socation-an oracle among insects,
as the old Greeks thought it. But
these attitudes of prayer conceal
the most atrocious habits. These
supplicating arms, to fall into
Fabre's picturesque phrasing, are
lethal weapons. These fingers tell
no rosaries, but exist to seize the
passerby. Although member of
vegetarian family, the mantis feeds
exclusively on its living prey. 1t is
a tiger in ambush, and if only it
had sufficient strength its ogrcish
appetite and its horrible facility
of concealment by color and form
among the green leaves where
peaceful insects travel would make
it the terror of the countryside.
At first glance it does not looh
very terrible. Its neck is flexible.
and it can turn its head and look
with sharp eyes in all directions.
but no formidable jaws alright IA
victim. In its powerful uplifted
fore limbs lies the hidden danger.
the cruel trap. Each long thigh,
shaped like a flattencd spindle, car
ries on the forward half of its lower
face a double row of steely spincs,
alternately long and short, and
three needlelike spikes, longest of
all, rise behind the parallel rows,
between which the fore leg lies
when folded in prayer" This
fore part of the leg is similarly arm
ed, but with smaller spikes, and
terminates in a hook with a blade
like pruning knife and a tip as
sharp as q needle. Handle the in
sect incautiously and this armament
discovers itself to you instantly,
thrusting its needles and blades

singing wise and forcing you to
crush it to get free.
When the mantfs is in rcposc
these weapons are folded and press.
ed against the chest, showing moth
ing of their ferocity. The bandits
sword is sheathed, and it seems at
it's devotions. But let a victim
come within reach and the ruse-
if ruse it bc--is abandoned like o
flash. The three long joints of the
deadly fore limbs straighten and
shoot out their talons, which strike
the victim like the unsheathed claws
of cat and drag it back between
the saws of the thighs. The wise
closes with an upward motion, as a
man would bring his hand up to
his shoulder, and no cricket, grass
hopper, beetle or spider can strug.

FACE TO FACE,

IF my face could only promise
That its GOODNESS would re-
main.
1t could hide the moments
pain.
I would meet you and would greet
In the old familiar tone.
And naught would ever show you
The wrong that you had done.
II my trembling hand were steady,
If my smiles had not all fled.
II my eyes spoke not so plainly
or the tears they often shed,
1 would meet you and would greet
you
AS years ago we met.
Before our hearts were shipwrecked
On the ocean OF regret.
II the melody OF springtime
Awoke no wild refrain,
II the autumn's golden burden
Awoke NO living pain.
I would meet thee and would greet
thee
AT the old sweet trysting place.
And. perchance. you'd deem me
happy
II you saw me face to face.
II my woman's soul were stronger,
II my heart were not so true,
l should long have ceased Ec:nem-
bering
The love had for you,
But ! dare not meet or greet thee
In the old familiar way
Until we meet in heaven,
When tears have passed awny

EDITORIALS
THE COLLEGE GRAD
UATE AND BASE BALL

Hundreds of college ball players
at this moment face a most per-
picking question. Shall they take
the $50. 500 or more a week that
the insinuating league scouts offer
them? Or shall they return to
every day emrloyments, in which,
for a few years they may not be
able TO earn their own board?
Shall it be the cheers of the null
titude. and black lies in the news
papers? Or shall it be dull prosaic
addition and subtraction in an
Office, the grind of producing cloth
or boots or shoes?
Formerly when Mother heard
that her loved boy, destined for
law books or the brick trade had
become a professional ball player,
she almost wept. On the ball field
she thought. sporty men swore,
gambled, and adjourned to the sa-
loon.
Now there are absolutely clean,
high minded fellows in all the big
leagues. A man must at least be
temperate to hit a swiftly curving
ball.
Probably the average player in
the big leagues earns more than
the average college graduate for
the same period in business or the
professions. Probably also, the
average big league player quits
with less money laid aside than the
average college graduate has at
the same age in his business or pro.
fession.
The atmosphere surrounding the
ball player is not one conducive to
thrift. He is subject to the adula-
ton of the sporting fraternity.
But they are more than willing to
smoke MS cigars ana accept his
provisions for their thirst.
So it is hazardous as a business
proposition for a fellow to go into
professionaAb base ball permanently,
unless he is the master uf his own
will, and can be satisfied to live his
own life. And he knows that in
10 to 20 years he has a great big
break to make. While his former
classmate has reached substantial
success, he must learn the A B e
OF some business, though he should
be assist ed on his way by a sub
stantial capital (Which he may
lose.)

energies and efforts to further the in
terests OF the whole people to the best

II moon IN ECLIPSE

During the year 1913 there will be
three eclipses OF the sun and two oil
the moon, but for the most part the
people OF the United States will not
see them. The first of these phe
nomena is total eclipse of the moon
due tonight-Easter eve. 1t will be
seen by the inhabitants of North
America, western South America and
the eastern portion of Asia. The
shadow may be seen leaving the moon
in western North America, including
the Pacific coast.
A partial eclipse of the sun on April
6 will be visible to the northwestern
portion OF the United States, but will
not carry any particular significance,
The same will be true OF a partial
eclipse of the sun on August 81. II
will be seen only by inhabitants OF
Greenland and the maritime provinces
Of Eastern Canada.
One OF the most interesting eclipses
in the year will be that of the moon
on September 16, which will be a total
observation and will be visible in Aus.
tralia and the Pacific ocean. Most of
the United States and Asia will be
able to view the eclipse at its begin
ming. Its ending will be visible to the
northwestern portion of North Amer
lea.
