If the preacher has no higher
conception of his duty than to
undertake to please a lot OF
men who don't know when they |
are pleased may be sure he has
missed his calling. If the church .
is a divine institution for the
civiIizing, enlighting and saving
the world, its standard must be
set by God Himself and men
must conform to its te ching.
The generally prevalent idea
that the church is a place to
dress and 90 out for an hours
entertainment is a low concep-
ton Of its mission and this leads
Ius to the inevitable conclusion
that men are Indifferent about
attending because they have not
studied the great principles that

fair minded man will admit that
he ought to attend church if for
no higher motive than that its
incumbent upon him as a good
citizen to set a good example be-

cannot be controverted that the
best people of any community
are it's church goers. Any man
that will study the history OF

WHEN YOUR DAUGHTER WEEDS.

At this time of the wear when the
brides never fail to be numerous, the fol-
lowing sensible words that appeared in
one ofour most valued exchanges will be
read with interest. The editor uses the
question, us there a mother who does
not feel a little sinking Of the heart as
she sees her daughter 60 out of her
home as a bride?"
"Most mothers delude themselves IN
the belief that by some alchemy of fate
their children will be saved from all of
the ills of existence-physcal or mental.
How much better it would be If we
taught our children to look life Squarely
in the face, SO that when troubles come
they will bear them bravely.
IF your daughter is to be happy in
her welded life, she must have learned
from your precept and practice the duties
of home maker. She must be able to
care for house properly, with or with
out servants; she must be well verSed in
the arts of cooking and plain sewing
but above all she must look at life as it
is, sanely and logically.
'After you have taken your last coun-
sci with your daughter before her mar
rage, you might say to her: From to-
night shall not interfere in your affairs,
as | know that husbands and wives
makes the laws, of their own households.
What might be right for me and your
father might not be at all practical in
your case.
"Neither is it good idea to tell me of
all of the little annoyances that come
between you and your husband, as the
retailing of them ouly makes them seem
worse Do not think for a moment that
| will not be near to help you IN any real
trouble when | am needed. but you
must remember from now on you have
elected to take up the reality of life, and
if you truly love your husband and he
truly loves you nothing will count in the
balance.
"Your mother, my child, has done her
best to prepare you for happy mar
rage. My real work is finished; yours
has Just begun. Make me happy by car
rying it on to fuller fruition than have
been able to carry mine, and | will feel
that have not lived in vain.
eco my child, and may Joy and peace
60 with you. ;"

Killed on Way to Picnic.

]. A. Coscley aged about az, of near
Woodbine, and Nathan Snowden. aged
about az, of near the same place, both
colored, we're instantly killed Saturday
afternoon about one O'Clock. supposedly
by being struck by the west bound Balti-
more and Ohio way train, between Bar
tholows and Monrovia. They are said TO
have been on their way to the picnic of
the colored people held near New Market
and known as the Gallean Fishermen's
picnic. Sheriff Conard was notified of the
accident and went to the scene, accom-
panied by Justice Posey, as coroner.
Deputy Sheriff Jones and DR.. B. o.
Thomas also made the trip. 1t is said
that the negroes were intoxicated.
AT Molesworth's store, at Bartholows,
it was stated that about 100 negroes got
off passenger train to go to the picnic
Many OF them took the road to the
grounds while others went down the rail-
road. Reports state that a number of
those who went down track were intoxi-
Gated and it is believed that the two who
were killed were under the influence of
liquor.
In going to the same picnic an over
loaded wagon containing eleven colored
people, driven by white man, collapsed
while descending hill and all the occu-
pants thrown out. The driver was cut
rather badly about the face while a negro
boy had his leg broken at the hip.

Creagerstown Begins to Rise
From it's Ashes.

Saturday morning marked the begin
ming of Creagerstown's rebuilding of the
area DESTROYED by the fire. The fret
building was the barn of Mr. George
Stevens. By noon, on Saturday, August
22nd, the heavy oak timbers of the barn,
46 by SO in size, had been placed in po-
sition as well as the rafters. During the
evening the weather boarding was put on
and by night the barn was almost COM
plete. Mort & Son, of Woodsboro,
have the contract for the barn. Abont
rs men assisted Saturday morning in the
raising.
Foundations are about completed for
the new Clarence Valentine Hotel,
which will occupy a ground space OF 80
by 90 feet, and will be three stories
high.
Robert L. OgIe is also pushing the
work upon the foundations for his new
residence and store buildings, and Geo.
Stevens will soon begin work on his new
residence.
1t is the general opinion that within
month Creagerstown will again look like
the old town.

Arthur D. Willard, OF the Frederick
Bar, recently received word that Judge
John c. Rose, of the United States Court.
in Baltimore, who is spending the sum-
mer in Maine, has appointed him referee
in bankruptcy for this section. The APP
pointment was made on August 8, but
Mr.. Willard received word only recently.
Mr.. Willard stated the appointment
was a complete surprise to him. as he had
not applied for the place and was not
aware that his appointment was contem-
plated. He stated he would accept.
The late Edward S. Eichelberger, of
Frederick, was appointed referee in bank
ruptcy about year ago to succeed Major
E. Y. Goldsborough, whose failing health
caused him to resign the position. Mr..
Eichelberger. during his term, conducted
several important cases.

Auto Goes Over Emban kment.

The handsome Franklin roadster. be-
longing to George E. Roulette, of Hag-
erstown. was badly damaged as the result
of running over an embankment on the
mountain near Dahlgren, Saturday even
ing. Mr. Roulette and party were re-
turning from Frederick and as they were
going up the mountain the car got into a
soft ditch on the right hand side of the
road, which was being repaired. They
got out and pushed the car back into the
road and the car ran away from them and
chased over steep embankment where
it struck large tree. 1t was necessary
to secure several horses to pull the car
back on to the road again. The car was
too badly damaged to proceed with it.

ACT WELL YOUR PART.

Our happiness in this life depends not
so much on circumstances and surround
ings as in onr determined efforts to do
our best in all conditions in which we
are placed. Our common heritage is
more or less allied to sorrows and pain,
but we have an antidote within ourselves
the sunshine of the heart that will ale
viate, if not remove many of our troubles.
But we persistently reject the means Of
happiness that lie within our reach. by
ignoring present small pleasures in hopes
Of enjoying greater ones in the future
good time that is coming, and which
ALWAYS keeps just ahead, and is unat-
tainabe. We cultivate the little cares I'M
til they some times attain enormous
growth by constantly dwelling on them
and dolefully rehearsing them to our
friends when we should do our best to
rise above them. In the most difficult
and irving conditions there will often be
a brighter side.
The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1914-08-28
SING AT YOUR WORK.

At this season of the year one can
learn a lesson of cheerfulness from the
birds that MARBLE their cheerful songs
from morning until evening. Another
lesson that they both teach us is that the
bird that has its nest in the small and
thorny bush sings as sweetly and is as
happy as the one that calls the stately
oak its home. So it is with families. In
the little cottage you often find the
mother singing and more happy and con-
tented than the one who dwells in the
marble front Let us learn a lesson from
the birds and be cheerful in our homes,
be they great or small. One wiser than
US has the following lesson of the canary
and inquiries what is more cheerful IN
home than canary bid warbling runs
and thrille of song all day long?
To be joyful and to impart his fine
spirit of contentment to others seems 10
be the canary's chief business in
life. And how does he take it? No
grouching, no skipping, no hungry
watching of the clock for him. But head
thrown b~ck and throat ripping, he
pours out his message OF cheer with
zeal and heartiness and complete dedica-
ton in which there does not seem to be
an element of selishness or a particle of
stingy reserve.
Why do you not, also sing at your
work?
There is a lot of value in the habit.
1t unkinks the snarls and ruffles in your
own mind and soul and it is mighty
good example to others.
One audibly happy person in house
hold, office or workshop is often able to
infect all of the others, for nothing is SO
contagious as an emotion. 1t is next to
impossible to stay grouched alongside of
a person who is singing or joking. And
unlike the one rotten apple which cor
rupts the basketful, the most contagious
of all emotions is the emotion of happl
ness.
You could do this, too, by just taking
a tip from the canary. To see the
bright side, to impart Joy instead of
gloom, to be throughout life time an
infectious center of happiness-of song
have show. You, with all of the adj
vantages of mind and soul ought easily
to be able to beat a dumb canary il you
would really try.
He who can create his own happiness
in the sphere in which he finds himself,
has within him one of the real elements
of success in business and success in
winning happiness.
