]. R. Spurgeon, an agent for the
southern Pacific company at Turner,
was arrested last night upon a COM
plant charging him with a statutory
crime in which Mrs. Hal Wright, also
OF Turner, is named as the other party.
Spurgcon was taken before Justice
Webster here today and pleaded not
guilty. Justice Webster placed his
bond at $1,000 and, failing to furnish
it, he was committed to the custody of
the sheriff. Hal Wright, who is a
leading business man in Turner, is the
prosecuting witness. The hearing of
Spurgeon will be held in the justice
court tomorrow.

IN GOD WE TRUST

At frequent intervals some one
arises in the halls of congress and
offers a resolution asking for a re-
moval of the 'In God We Trust
from the United States coin. The
newspapers of the country then take
the matter up for and against, and
by the time the subject gets well
lined up for debate, the resolution
and the resoIuter are forgotten and
we go stamping the bright money
with the fine old phrase.
For it is a fine, old phrase and
away down in the hearts of the
American people, it is honored.
Nor is it a phrase that men are
ashamed to use A refreshing re-
turn to old-fashioned, fiat-footed
religion in noticeable throughout our
national life and the most eloquent of
scoffers are silenced by the eagerness
with which men listen to the defend
ers of the faith"
Not long ago William jennings
Bryan said:
Man needs faith in God to strength
en- him to his hours of trial and he
needs it to give him courage to do the
work Of life. How can one fight for a
principal unless he believes in the
triumph of the right? How can he be-
lieve in the triumph of his right if he
does not believe that God stands back
of the truth and that God is able to
bring victory to truth? The minister
of faith, believing that every word
spoken for the truth will have it's in
fiuence, and that no blow struck for
righteousness will be struck in vain,
fights on without asking whether he
is to fall in the beginning of the bat
tie or live to join in the shouts of
triumph. He knows not whether he is
to live for the truth or to die for it,
and if he has the faith he ought to
have, he is ready to die for it as to
live for it.
And, somehow, this seems to be
acceptable doctrine-the country
wants just such rugged belief in the
country's motto: IN God We Trust"

STORY or a COMMENTED
FARMER

/ In the current issue of Farm anc
Fireside a contributor tells, as fol
lows. about a farmer who comes as
near being contented farmer as any
one he knows. Following is an ex
tract:
I'm south central New Hampshire
lives a farmer, his wife and three
children who are the nearest to be
ing absolutely -contented that we
have yet discovered. We will not
call them by name, but it is a real
family and we have known them
long enough and well enough to be
sure of our ground in saying they
are contented.
1.-THE head of the family was for
merly a storekeeper in a small town,
later a carpenter, and for the last fiji
teen years has ,farmed it. He and
his wife are in ripe middle age. The
son who married three years ago,
lives in the next house, helps run the
farm, and is still considered one of
the family. There are two young I'M
married daughters-one teaching a
nearby school, and the other helping
with the house work. No hired men
are kept to break up the family circle
through outside help is sometimes
hired by the day.
1.-THE wife is a woman Of high ideals
and refined tastes. The house reflects
her personality. 1t is comfortably but
not extensively furnished. The meals
n such a home are Of course good.
Running spring water is provided in
the kitchen. The living room contains
a piano and phonograph. The son
plays the violin, both daughters play
the piano, and the father is an expert
with ire photograph. He can put his
hand on any OIL the two hundred and
fifty records in his musical library
All the family have good voices, and
use them. The head of the house en-
Joys an evening or two week over
the checker-board and plays strong
game.
" But they don't want to move.
They want to stay where they are.
They could succeed anywhere, but
they aren't anxious to try. The air
is good. the water is good, and this
farm agrees with one pretty well,
says this man, and besides, l have
plenty of elbow room. III live here
as long as live and then I'll be
buried here"
