Baptist Notes

A Sunday School Missionary social
will be held in the social rooms of the
church on Friday evening. The public
are cordially invited to attend. The
program consists of a most attractive
exercise in costume by eight girls of

nese, games, refreshments, etc. A
good social time is assured ALL Those

fering for the missionary budget of
the church.
Next Sunday is Denomination Day
and will be generally observed by
Baptist churches. Both morning and
evening addresses will emphasize our
Baptist work for Christ, the truths we
hold dear, our responsibility to God
and humanity. All friends of the
church and especially all Baptists liv-
ing in this community are urged to
show their love and loyalty by at
tending one or both services.

Thouqht He Was In India.

When Rudyard Kipling reached Lon
don from India in his search for fame
and fortune he lodged in some small
rooms on Villiers street. One morn
ing friend called. and when he found
himself in Kipling's sitting room he was
surprised to see a handsome mirror
which stood over the fireplace smash
ed to smithereens."
Snakes" said Kipling. noticing the
look of astonishment on his friends
face. 81 was doing in my chair yes
terday evening. and my foot slipped
out of my shoe. which for comfort
had unlaced. Half waking. felt with
my foot for the shoe and began slip
ping 1t in when my toes touched the
leather tongue. 'Snake!' flashed across
my sleepy brain. l gave one desperate
kick, and when the shoe struck that
mirror | realized that l was In Lon
don and not in India"

CHURCH FEDERATION IN AN IDAHO TOWN

enrolls 500 members. All except II
of the on-Catholic children of the
town, of school age, are members OF
the school. There are over 100 more
persons on the roll of this Sunday
school than are attendants upon the
Potlatch public school.
Such facts as these are cited by Mr..
Scafe when the point lis raised as TO
the stimulating advantage of COM
peting Protestant church. Incident
ally, the relations between the Protes-
tant and Catholic churches have been
uncommonly close and cordial.
One rock upon which union church
es often split is the question Of INNER
sion Mr.. Scafe was trained in
the Moody Bible Institute, Chicago,
and so was qualified to take rather
view of the situation So
he gave both views of baptism, by
and by sprinkling, and then
left IL TO each new member of the
church TO choose the method of his
own baptism. This has worked salts
factorily.
There have been many candidates
for baptism. The church has been
vital one, and has made many CON
yerts.
The Union church has its own
reed, simple statement of six Ear
.icles of faith" to which the mem
1ers subscribe. These articles are
relief in the Triune God, in the in
piration Of the Bible, the sinfulness
# mans natural state, the redemp-
ion work of Christ, the free offer of
Aviation TO all and the two sacra-
nents Of baptism and the Lords sup
er.
Both home and foreign mission
york are served by the gifts of the
'otlatch church, through interdenom-
rational agencies The pastor, Mr..
cafe, was intensely missionary.
In more practical ways the mem
ers showed their missionary spirit.

Splendid, but LadyIike Golf.

says writer in the Glasgow News
Two young ladies entered our com
partment at Whitecraigs, and. having
placed bag of shining clubs on the
rack. one of them said to her compan-
ion. DO you know. you played really
splendid golf today" "Oh. how could
you say that?" exclaimed the other in
pleased tones. You know | haven't

explained the critic in tones that clear
ly left no doubt in the mind OF the
criticised one. Didn't you only miss

Improved Bee Hives

Harry Titus is manufacturing an
improved hive for bees which apiar-
lists say possesses features far super
Tor to any others on the market. The
improvement is very simple, but is
permitting free passage of
the bees to any portion of the hive and
the removal of the honey
frames easy, Bee keepers should in
vestigate the Titus hive before buying.

A unique instance of union church
with members from a full score o.
denominations, all bonded together il
one harmonious organization is re.
ported from Potlatch, Idaho, says the
Statesman The conditions out OF
which it grew are common throughout
the country; and the experiment
shows what may be done when COM
mon sense and Christian tolerance
prevail.
When the town grew about the
works Of the Potlatch Lumber com
pany, the firm itself said, Eve are
going TO erect building for our
Roman Catholic people; and if the
Professionals can get together we will
build church for them also. But if
they want separate UNCONVENTIONAL
churches, they will have TO build their
own" That was the beginning, about
eight years ago. The Potlatch Union
church organized with SO members.
Like most industrial centers, Pot
latch brought together great di-
versity Of persons. When count of
the denominations affiliations of the
Union church was made it was found
that no less than q different eccles-
iastical bodies were represented on
the roll These ranged from South
ern Baptists TO Protestant Episcopal, |
with Presbyterians, Methodists, Con-
gregationalists and Lutherans repre-
sented.
Significantly, this Union church has
never been INSTRUMENTATION Rev.
C. K. Scafe, now Presbyterian pas
tor of Spokane, but long pastor of
the Potlatch church, steadily taught
the important work done by the great
denominations. He says that when
moved away from Potlatch
they and their families returned to
their former UNCONVENTIONAL affilia-
tons with undiminished zeal, but al
ways with greater breadth and toler-
anee. II

The School Leaks

The income of the state and all iii
subdivisions, being in round number;
ten million dollars, it is interesting Ia
note that the amount Of funds col
lected in counties for the public
schools amounts to S3,40S,142
The pupils Of school age are 114,-
367 in number, of which it may be
estimated 10 per cent attend schools.
This makes an average cost of about
$40 for each pupil in attendance
But it does not take into considera-
ton the cost of maintaining state edu-
cational institutions.
There are some districts in various
counties where special taxes are paid
equal to 500 and 5000 per pupil
There are some districts that levy
double the amount needed for their
expenses.
Education? Certainly, but not
waste.
Let's look up the school leaks

The Presbyterian church choir gave
a dress rehearsal of "The Tale of a
Hat" musical comedy, which is to
be presented at the church for the
benefit of the choir on Friday even
ing, March 10. The cast is composed
of Misses Verna Smell, Eva Mingus,
June DeClark and Mrs. Blackler, Mr..
Lou Burton, Vern Munday, C. L. Gam
age, Harry Shropshire and Fred
Brown. The play is of recent compo-
sition and is said to be different from
of the kind ever presented
in Emmett and will, no doubt, draw
a full house.

YOUR MISTAKES.

and Go Ahead.

and 40 Aneao.
Study your mistakes.
There are two kinds Of mistakes.
Those that happen from ordinary hui
man misthinking and those that come
from carelessness and petty unthink'
ing.
Study your mistakes.
No one ever gets too big to make
mistakes Tie secret is that the big
man is greater than his mistakes. be-
cause he rises right out of them and
passes beyond them.
After one of Henry Ward Beecher's
sermons in Plymouth church, Brook
Ign. young man came up to him and
said. Mr.. Beecher. did you know that
you made grammatical error in your
sermon this morning.
"a grammatical error? answered
Beecher. I'll bet my hat that | made
forty of them"
Half of the power of the forceful
man springs out of his mistakes of one
sort or another. They help to keep
him human.
Study your mistakes.
But the mistakes that tear away the
power of man. weaken him and
make him fabby are the stupid, the
reckless mistakes. The clerk who for
gets. the stenographer that doesn't
care. the worker who neglects-these
are the ones whose life blood and vi
tally are Slapped and sucked away
into failure.
Study your mistakes.
One of the great things Of each day
for you is to do your best, unmindful
Of mistakes. But after your work is
done and you realize your blunders, |
don't shirk, don't whine, don't de- |
'pond. but
Study your mistakes.
Then profit from them, and go

CRITICS AND GENIUS.

Carlyle Denounced Spencer, and Rus
kin Ridiculed Whistler.
The good critic must in some way
begin by accepting literature as it is,
just as the good lyric poet must begin
by accepting life as it is. He may be
as full of revolutionary and reforming
theories as he likes, but he must not
allow any of these to come like a
cloud between him and the sun, moon.
and stars of literature The man who
disparages the beauty of flowers and
birds and love and laughter and cour-
age will never be counted among the
lyric poets. and the man who questions
the beauty of the inhabited world the
imaginative writer's have made-a
world as unreasonable in its loneliness
as the world of nature-is not in the
way of becoming critic of literature.
Another argument which tells in IA
vor of the theory that the best crit
icism is praise is the fact that almost
all the memorable examples of critical
folly have been denunciations. One
remembers that Carlyle dismissed
Herbert Spencer as never ending
ass" One remembers that Byron
thought nothing of Keats-Jack Ketch.
as he called him. One remembers that
the critics damned Wagner's operas as
a new form of sin One remembers
that Ruskin denounced one of Wits.
