MY LIFE MOTTO.
MY LIFE MOT TO. Rev. G. c. chappell of MontviIIe Spoke Sunday Afternoon at Y. M. c. A.

Rev. c. c. Chappell of Montville was the speaker at the Sunday afternoon service at the Y. M. c. A., his topic being My Life Motto" Tenor solos were rendered in a pleasing manner by Eben Learned and selections were given by Lang's orchestra. General Secretary Starkey led the meeting and prayer was offered by Rev. c. A. Ner- thrup.
 My life motto. said Rev. MT. Chap Dell, is found in the first chapter of Romans, 14th and 18th verses: T am debtor both to Greeks and to barbara ans, both to the wise and to the fool ish. So. as much as in me is, am ready to preach the gospel to you also that are in Ron1e." I have found two classes of people in the world-those who say the world owes them living and thase whe say they owe the world their lives. The first class is like the Dead sea which receives the waters of the Jordan but which has no outlet. The second class is like the sea Of Gallilee. which has both ap inlet and the Christ and to the world. We feel that we are able to pay this debt to mankind only as we try to pay one another
 Paul felt himself a debtor to all men, going from city to city in Asia Minor and Europe, preaching to all the gospel of Christ, enduring the hard ships and trials through the love Of Christ. Paul was man of refinement and intellectual ability, a man of po- sition and honor, yet he left all to preach the gospel.
 There are great opportunities for work to be done at home, and we need not look far to see the avenues of op- portunity for working for Christians and for those who are not Christians. Though our first duties are here, yet we are debtors to the Japanese, the Chinese. the Africans and the Hin = dus. As sons of the great Father, as disciples of Jesus Christ, we should each say: "As much as in me is. am ready to do the work which is allot- ted to me. Ones ability is the stand ard of his work, and many do not realize their own. abilities.
 There are two. texts, in these words: t'As much as in me is,' and T am ready" The first text, means whole heartedness. The church is in need of men fired with the unquenchable en : thusiasn for the cause of Christ; men determined. to do their part In the second part Paul showed his readiness to be used, which was one great secret of Paul's success. He was always ready to do as much as in him was. There is Christian work for all to do. In our homes, ip our business. in our church, let us do as much as in us fs- Here is real power. To say 4T am a Christian" is to say T am debtor-'' We can pay this debt; with money, sympathy. love, prayer and by touch : ing Christ. We can pay our debt by constant. faithful, undagging service to Christ.
 The announcement was. made that Jacob M Clinton of Tokyo Japan, Is to be the speaker at the Y. NJ. c. A mems meeting to be held next Sunday afternoon at the Davis theater. There will be selections by a male chorus

The burglary was first discovered when the store was opened Saturday morning.. A glass in the front door had been broken out with a stone, so that a hand could be put through to undo a spring lock on the door. The burglar went out the back door.
 One clue that was picked was shown in footprint. which from it's size in dicated that a boy had been around there. Sergeant Kane and Policeman Carroll got .te work on the case, and found reason te connect the. Gauthier boy with the burglary. With a little to work on at the start, the Greene ville officers cleyerly worked up the trail and made the arrest In a way that should warn evil-doers that that Is an unhealthy section to operate in. The boy at first denied knowledge of the burglary, but at length. after an examination at headquarters. confessed and said he had gained an entrance into the Bray place at about 9.15 o'clock Friday night. He will be pre- sented in the city court thhis morning.

sheIterina Arms Service.

There was evening prayer and ad- dress by Arehdeacon J. Eldred Brown, rector of Trinity church. at the Shell tering Arms Sunday afternoon. The text of the address was For We Are Members One of Another. This is a connective and social age, he said. when men feel their dependence upon each other and the need of working together for the common good. Christ expected that in His church men would learn to love one another and practice acts and love and goodwill as leavened out in the world. We are organizing now the many purposes of love and service in the world We should be more and more devoted to our church and get the spirit of love and goodwill from it, then in the com munity act for the benefit of childhood, health and do nything that makes for the bettefment of the world, for we are members one of another.
 The hymns were much enjoyed as rendered by Mrs. Walter Buckingham, Miss Florine Schofeld, Mrs Ranger and Miss Weller. The service closed with singing Blest Be the Tie That Binds.

the consolidation Of bureaus. a cut in
the salaries Of the higher government
al officials and finally urged self-denial,
patriotism and harmony.
President Wilson and Secretary Gar
rison have selected the following Fill
ipnos to be members OF the Philippine
commissions: Nictorino Mapa, Jaime c.
DE Eeyra, Vicente Iustro and Vicente
Singson. Mapa will he secretary of
finance and Justice. The fifth Filipino
commissioner will he Rafael Palma,
who since 1905 has been the only ma
tive on the commission. His rcsigna-
ton was not accepted The designa-
ton Of five natives to majority control
Of the commission OF nine, marks the
first step in the policy of the Wilson
administration aiming at self govern
ment and ultimate independence of the

son recommends the native commissions
