In the last lesson for that year, we

his teachings about children, as about

unique among all religious teachers.

III. Angels In Disguise, 10:t3-16,
This attitude Of Jesus towards those
children about him (9:36) led others

Jesus extended his hands In blessed
benediction. What effect this blessing
may have had upon q baby's heart we
are not told, but we can imagine
that a sense Of responsibility for Chris
tian nurture must have remained with
these parents, Eph. ga. Those in

a good example In bringing them thus

Obituary..

Mrs. P. H. Morris, one of the we'll
known and highly respected citizens
of this city, died at the family home
on Walnut street, February 49,,
1914. Mrs. Morris death was caus-
ed from heart trouble, from which
she had suffered number of years.
Since the death of Mr.. Morris, two
years ago, she had lived most of the
time alone. But last October she
went to the home of her daughter,
Mrs. A. F. Bartlett, where she re-
NAMED until about three weeks be-
fore her death. She then returned
to her own home, her health much
improved. The deceased would have
been II years of age at her next
birthday, the 18th of May.
Elizabeth Francelia Whitney was
born at Wilton, New York, May ~,
1913. She was united in marriage
with P. H. Morris, December 16,
1868, in Racine, Wisconsin. Mrs.
Morris was member of the Congre-
gational church and for many years
was a Sunday school teacher. She
was an exemplary Christian woman
and a devoted wife and mother.
Mrs. Morris was the mother of
four children-A. F. Morris Of Bent
ly, North Dakota; Kittie, who died
in July, 1881, at the age of fifteen
years: Mrs. A. F. Bartlett of this
city and Mrs. Frank H. Shafer of
harrisburg.
Mother was tired and sleepy,
Weary with tears and with pain.
Put by the work and the rocker,
She will not need them again.
Into sweet rest she hath entered
No more to suffer or to weep.
After the few days and nights she
suffered
Mother has fallen asleep.
Flowers that she loved now enfold
her,
H hidden in their BOSOM she lies;
She will heed not the song of thel
robin,
Beauty of blossoms or skies.
Over her bed the green grass
Soon will so lovingly creep,
Out mid the daisy and clover,
Mother is lying asleep.
Oh beautiful rest for the weary,
Beautiful sleep for the true;
lying so peacefully ever
Under the sunlight and dew.
Floats through the hearts of the low
ed ones
like breath of a whisper sweet,
He giveth to his loved and true,
For mother has fallen asleep"

q. A. BransOn was down from

he is getting along nicely with his
logging operations.
He is now employing between
two and three hundred men, part
of them putting in logs, and the
remainder building logging
railroad.
In order to get at his timber it
was necessary, this spring, for
him to build about five miles of
railroad in addition to what was
already in.
He has already built two miles
of this and has it completed and
ready for use. This still leaves
about three miles yet to be built
and he has a large crew at work
ON it.
He is delivering the logs which
he is putting in now to the Mil

.FaVOrS
Unions
SAYS ANTITRUST BILL
But Does Not COuntenance Vic.
IenCe or COeFSiOd


Washington, June TO- There
is not "a provision i'm the antitrust
.hiil which can be tortured into
meaning that violence, cOeci H.
or counlenanced" Representative
Webb of North Carolina, chair
man of the house judiciary com
mittee, said in a statement today
regarding the house omnibus
trust bill now pending i'm the sen
ate. lie gave the official version
of the development of the labor
exemption clause.
''The trainers of the Sherman
law" he said, never intended to
place labor organizations and fan
mers' unions under the ban OF
that law The existence of a la
Dor or farmers organization
never has been unlawful, and is
not unlawful today, but it was
desired to place in the statutory
law of the country a recognition
OF the rights ofthose organiza-
tions to exist and carry out theii
lawful purposes.
After the original section Z OF
the anti trust bill was drawn cer-
tain representatives of labor con
tended that the section did moi
labor all it was entitled to ano
demanded that we should max,
the section provide that the ant
labor organizations.
THE acceptance of this ameno
ment would have placed labor or
ganizalions beyond the pale oil
the antitrust laws entirely, this
neither the president nor TIA,
members of the committee wOul,
agree to.
Finally after 10 days parley
ing we agreed To add To what ",
already had provided the labor
plank as adopted i'm the Balti-
more democratic convention thaI
such organizations or associa-
lions or their members shoul,
not be held illegal combination,
in restraint of trade under tn,
antitrust laws.
This does not give labor, far
mers or fraternal organizations
any more than they are entitle,
To- under the law today, nor an,
more than the federal courts
throughout the country have hel,
them entitled TO. This provision
will protect them from dissolu.
ton under the antitrust laws
but does not protect them from
penalties for violating the Grim
inal laws of the country.
