amples are given by Corporal P. L.
King of the Second Life Guards in the
Household Brigade Magazine.
A Tom Clarke is a swab. and 1t is
also kiss. Hence, one may hear a
soldier refer to Tom Clarking his
straight missus, which means kissing
his prospective bride. Nobody knows
who the original Tom Clarke was.
A touch of the Lawrence means at
of laziness.
A pennyworth of bread and cheese is
known as a 'rimer" for some inscrut-
able reason, and tea is dirty ot." Meat
is saddle flap."
To put half a gauge on" anything
is to do work for man for sixpence.
which may have some connection with
the fact that half-gallon can is known
as half a gauge"
A man wearing a mufiier Is in burg

will heating make 1t wholesome? II

Bowen, pastor of the First Methodist
church, and Rev. d. A. Thompson of
he First Presbyterian church, being

ing of the club, October 7.
Bishop Morrison's subject was "The
Relation of the Church to Modern
Thought" and during an interesting
discourse of about an hour he discuss
ID the changing ideas of religion,
pointing graphically to the influence
t has exerted on many who have
never gone to church and picturing
from that the extent of it's iE4iuence
on present-day civilization.
The club elected new officers for
the year. choosing Eagle Freshwater,
editor of THE WASHINGTON STANDARD
