Uniform Berry Packaues.

One of the striking facts OF the
berry season every year is tho aston
ishing variety Of fruit packages which
the consumer finds i'll the market.
Boxes and baskets Of both wood and
paper, square, fiat, oblong or fiaring,
some quart boxes Short, and some
shorter, combine 10 malre' medley
which is confusing to the buyer. 1t
is also a puzzle to the grower, end a
cause of positive loss, when he
changes his style of package.
Really the grower need not do this
If he makes proper preparations, but
sometimes he is forced TO when in
sudden need ne is unable TO find his
preferred style and, therefore, must
take whatever the dealer has TO offer.
Often in small shipping towns,
where there are only perhaps half a
dozen growers. there will be found as
many styles of packages as there
are men, This can be nothing but
detrimental to the business, because it
prevents the interchange of boxes and
crates which might often be of great
advantage. Such unnecessary diver
sity can be prevented by cooperative
buying. In many places this system
is now in practice.
Cost is saved by bulking together
orders for packages, and uniformity
of packers also improves market con-
ditions. If all the growers of even a
small neighborhood were SO well
organized that their supplies could
be bought through one agency, in a
course OF only few years it would
be an advantage of great value.

in His LEADING,

Gods leading is not intended to ex

Paul did not wait to be shown, in
some miraculous way, what his duty
was. He went straight forward in the
line of the great purpose of his life
trusting God TO arrest him or to divert
him. Such indications of duty as the
vision of the man of Macedonia were
exceptional. The normal course OF
the apostles life shows us man NOV
ing forward steadily along the line
which his judgment and conscience
approve, believing, with all his soul
that he was going in Gods way for
him, and confident that God would
check him or make his way plain if in
naught he erred. To all who do this
God plainly speaks, Il am the Lord

Gen. Kitchener Found Il a DiVertirs
Way to Put in Some Idle Time.
AS relaxation from the cares IF
his duties as British agent-general
of Egypt Lord Kitchener has taken
up snake hunting. A few days ago,
when it wa sreported that a 12-foot
cobra had been seen near the Gezira
Sporting clubs grand stand, the ma
tive police and keepers were ordered
to kill it. They made one attempt,
but fed before his snakeship. Lord
Kitchener heard Of it and sent for a
snake charmer On the promise that
the famous soldier would personally
attend to the snake when it should
appear, the native began his whis-
fling. Soon, to the horror of the by
ISLANDERS, not one reptile, but six,
crawled from under the stand. The
natives promptly bolted, but Lord
Kitchener, ,gith four of his aides,
waded in with stout cudgels, and
after an exciting night despatched
the snakes. Kitchener was SO pleased
with the afternoons sport that he
mas permanently retained the snake
charmer on his staff and has spent
many pleasant" afternoons hunting
cobras.

Fake Weddings Held Nightly TO De-
feat Jersey 5arroom Law.
By having fake wedding ceremonies
performed by professional brides and
bridegrooms, certain saloonkeepers in
Jersey City have been able TO hood
wink the police for many months,
and have dances every night. So
stated Frank Hague. director of pub
lie safety, in a report to the COM
mission government.
A crusade last winter against bar
room dances put stop to such ex-
cept in the cases where the dance
was the part of wedding celebra-
ton. Hague noticed several weeks
ago an unusual number of applica-
lions for wedding dances poured in
from the saloons in the Polish quar-
ter. He investigated and found the
number did not tally with the actual
marriage licenses issued. He sailed
forth to attend several Of the we'd
dings.
He found about fifteen young men
and girls whose nightly duty it was
to sit under fancy canopies in the
back rooms adjoining the various
saloons, and simulate the JOY and
shyness of the newlyweds. 1t was
worth IS cents a night to one husky
youth to be bridegroom" He had
been on the job about q month.

sale at one OF the nuptial fetes con-
WINGED the investigators OF the fraud
being practiced on the police The
saloonkeepers supplied wedding bells
of artificial bowers, white gowns for
the brides and evening clothes for
the "bridegrooms." The principals in
the fake weddings were not required
to pay for their drinks, and the
brides were supplied with artificial
bouquets.
Brides" were picked out because
of their beauty. Many of them be-
came real brides by reason of their
fake positions. One girl received
more than 20 proposals from dance
hall admirers. She finally quit her
Job because she had to wash her
wedding finery and replenish her nup-
tial flowers. In several instances the
mated pair sitting under the same
canopy did not even know each other.

Each grade in :the Central school will
have the use of the gymnasium twice
each week and the teachers will give
instruction in dumb-bell work, Indian
clubs, games and calisthenics. A class
will be organized for high school girls
and the boys will have an interclass
basketball league. Dumb-bell wand
and general physical training work will
also be taught in the West Side school.
Over one hundred students and
teachers OF the high school enjoyed the
game banquet at the X. OF p. hall last
Monday evening. The banquet was
prepared by the lady teachers and girls
OF the high school and was most excel
lently planned and served. Members
of the losing side in the game hunt act

MAN, THE IMAGE OF GOD,
r r r
az JuNIUs 8. REMENsNYDER.


r r r
Text-And God said; Let US make
man in our Image, after our likeness.
Genesis, l., 26.'
There are two theories of the origin
of man. One would bring him up from
the earth beneath, placing his genoa
logy with the worms. The other, the
Biblical, brings him down from above.
According to Genesis man was made
in the divine likeness" What are
the marks of this Image of God?"
First the gift of reason God is a
rational. thinking spirit, And, in dis
tinction from the lower creatures, He
has stamped upon us this likeness of
Himself, God has craven His mathe-
NAUTICAL thoughts upon atoms and
crystals and snowflakes and on stars
and worlds, and we can read these
thoughts and admire the wondrous
picture He has painted in the vast
gallery of nature because We have a
faculty of reason akin to His own.
The Image of Cod" again, consists
in freedom. God is free. He knows
no law but His sovereign will. He
does what He chooses TO do. Nature
is under the grip of law. Necessity
holds it with unbending hand The
animals obey their inevitable instincts.
But God has clothed man with this
divine prerogative of free will. He
is a sovereign. Ellis mind to him
a kingdom is" To Him pertains the
power of choice He is the architect
of His own soul. He is the fashioner
of His own destiny. In the exercise
Of this perilous power he can raise
himself to the angels or degrade Him.
self below the brutes.
The Image of Gedn further appears
III mans moral nature. As power the
pagan deities, so Righteousness and
goodness characterize Jehovah. He is
the Holy One of Israel" Thou lowest
righteousness, "Just and true are Thy
ways.p The seat of mans likeness to
this divine quality is in conscience. To
be pure in heart, to shun injustice
and wrong, to cherish noble and I'M
selfish ideals, to do good to fellow
men, this likens one most of all to
God, his Maker.
This unique truth should Undue
man with a sense of his greatness. 1t
stoop to the low and mean is to do
violence to his high nature and to
commit sacrilege against God, whose
image he wears. Only good and no
BILE ends are worthy of him,
Again, it shows that we are fitted
for divine fellowship Mans thoughts
can reach up and Gods thoughts can
come down and meet, because our ma
lures are akin. Hence we can have
secret speech with God. Prayer is
justified The whispers of our souls
are the voices Of sea that beats on
the shore of life, but Of a sea that
stretches away to shores where is set
the throne of God.
We are taught respect for our fell
low man. In every one, no matter how
fallen, we should see vestiges of this
divine lineage.
Hence, too, issues sure hope of
immortality. The supreme character.
istic of God is that HE liveth for
ever" If we are made in His image
we cannot die. We have the inbreath-
ing of an indestructible life.
Let no one then mar this Image of
God" but preserve its pristine beau
ty, and remember that He who made
us in His likeness made us for Him
self to serve not perishing, but the
noblest ends of being.

Ground foe Strawberries.

How hard should the ground
freeze before covering up the straw
berry vines? Well, if it will hold a
wagon up when driven over it you
may conclude that it is time to put
on the mulch. Don't put on too much
at first, however Increase the amount
of covering as the weather increases
in severity.
