THE BOY SCOUTS
DOING HUMANE ACT

The boy scouts of Charles Oity
are making cages for the protec-
ton of the birds through the win
ter. 1t hiss been found that the
birds do not emigrate south in
the winter because of the cold but
because of the failure of the food
supply.
A benevolent gentleman, E. S.
Marrener by name furnishes the
lumber and wire for the cages, each
of which will hold enough food for
100 birds. and the boy scouts are
making them. They are construct
ed in a short time and it is planned
to have large number.
Late. when food begins to- fail
they will fasten them to the trees
and food will be placed in them. .
The cages furnish protection
from storms also and it is thought
that mary of the birds will take ad-
vantage of them and conclude to
spend the wintes in the vicinity. 4

PRAY FOR PEACE
IN EUROPE

On bellded knee next Sabbath, ON
Oct. 4 implore Almig ghty God to
hear you, while you breath a pray
er iDlploring divine guidance in re-
storing peace to the warning nations
of the earth, to stop the frghtful
carnage Of human life that is now
taking place. The thousands of Wild
ows and orphans that are being
made destitute through this gigan-
tic conflict have no comparison in
history. The brains that control
the military factions have no reason.
Butchery carnage and annihilation,
is their only theme Let a spirit of
supplication prevail in behalf Of
peace.
The most favored nation on Gods
Earth at this period of crisis in In
ternational history is the Land of
the Stars and Stripes. Never in
orr national history have we had a
Chief Magistrate to call upon the
names to perform more beautd-
full act of devotion to the God of
the nation, and one of fraternal
sympathy for afflicted sister ma
tions, than we have in the Procla--
nation of President Wilson calling
upon the God fearing people of this
LAID to assemble in their reSpec-
tive houses of worship and invoke
the great Ruler of nations to over
rule the wisdom of men and bring
to these storm bound nations.
sF'eace, perfect Peace.
We ilave been called by Procla-
nation to right great Internal
wrongs, we have been called to the
altar of supplication and Thanks
giving at the close of our annual
harvest, but never before have we
come as a nation, forgetting our.
selves, and with only a thought of
those under the flags of other ma
IONS When the smoke of battle
has cleared away, the cannon roar
hushed, the diplomatic hand that
will drwa these nations together
will be the diplomacy of the Star
Spangled Banner. For our task we
shall need the guidance of Provi-
dance and no true citizen should
fail to join the great prayer SER
vices next Lords Day, Oct. 4th.

The genius OF women in literature was
shown today in the lecture at the New
Ebbitt by Mrs. Clara Bewick Colby.
The part women have taken in develop
ing the novel was referred to at length
by the lecturer in her talk on Women
in. English Fiction"
English women writer's did for the
English novel what French women had
done in the preceding century for the
French novel," Mrs. Colby said.
They made it so pure in
thought and expression that, as
Bishop Huet was able to say of the
French romances Of the seventeenth
century, you'll scarce find an express
sion or word which may shock chaste
ears. or one single action which may
give offense to modesty.'"
The lecture win be repeated this
afternoon at 4:i5 O'Clock.

the holidays. resuming her course of
