practically all that Jesus ever said
about marriage was incidental to the
discussion Of the divorce question. He
said that the marriage relation was
not matter of expediency or of con
venience, but an actual union of the
two lives that could not be dissolved
in life except by the unfaithfulness OF
one of the parties.
Press HeraIds Freaks.
Much Of the divorce evil and mari
tai unhappiness comes from illadvised
marriages. We some times read of the
marriage of two persons who had
never heard of each other before the
day of their marriage. A transaction
under the same conditions involving
far less in any other department OF
life would be considered crazy, but in
this most serious and sacred of all
things it Is often considered smart and
heralded through the press as some
thing for others to emulate. Too often
young people marry unwisely through
fear OF not getting married at all
There are many things worse than not
getting married, and one Of the worst
Of them all is a mistaken marriage. A
parent who urges a daughter into a
marriage with an unfit man on &C.
count OF his name or his wealth is as
guilty as the white SLAYER. Young PEG.
pie of conflicting religious beliefs are
counting trouble when they marry.
They will find that they not only have
to encounter the difficulties Of their
own differences. but they will also be
tormented by the meddlesomeness OF
all their relatives.
One Of the chief things needed in
marriage is sense-just sense. God in.
tended the man and the woman for
each other, and when they, starting
out on the way of life alone, come to
the place where the two roads meet.
and he takes the hand of the one and
places it in the hand Of the other and
sends them along the journey tOgeth-
er, there is nothing better in all life.
1t was to this union of man and wOm-
an, it's love and it's confidence and its
inseparable relation, that God COM
pared the union Of his Son and his
Church when he would convince men
of it's delights and its sublimity."

Turning to the members Of the class
he said:
Your college believes that it is not
an empty boast that you, her children.
are at least somewhat unafIaid. We
do not believe that you will look for
signs and wonders in the heavens;
that you will tremble at comets and
turn blanch at falling stars. We ask
you not to hang cOnsecrated bells in
steeples to ward off lightning. We
grant you the privilege of using light
ming rods If you will. but we ask you
to stand up straight and not to cringe
or shrink even in the face of ugly duty.
We ask you not to join the ranks of
those who would exercise demons or
burn witches or trust talismen. We
believe your training has fortified you
SO that you will not be inspired by
dread of the unknown or horror of the
new. We hope that in the stress and
strain of life's struggle you will not
be cajoled or stampeded by any evil
threats.

scrutinize results, then who of all peo-
pie will do SO? Having a mind freed
from a multitude Of fears; thrilled
with the epoch of making discoveries
of this day; flushed with the glow of
cooperative effort, which you have al
ready put to the test in a definite,
tangible way for your college; with a
feeling of security born of a faith in
the orderliness of the universe and the
benevOlence Of God, We ask you to
fare forthe to fight the fitful fevers of
humanity which threaten their bodies
and minds and souls. To open up the
jungles To clear away the plague
spots and to raze to the earth existing
walls which separate and divide. We
ask you not to assume the role of ma
giclOns, but we do ask you with
the delicate instruments Of Christian
sch olarship to exercise human fear"

COUNTRY IN NEED
OF GOOD LEADERS
Rev. B. E.. Parker Says Com
potency and Motives Sub
ject to Question.

Not more leaders, but leaders of
higher moral standards are needed in
this age, Rev. B. Il. Parker told his
congregation at the evening service
in the First Methodist church last
night.
He spoke on 1.-The Symbol of the
Shepherd as Illustrative of Christ's
Relation to the Individual" In speak
ing of the Shepherd as the leader of
the flock he said, 81 have a conviction
that the present age is suffering from
a lack of proper leadership. We do
not lack leaders, but their competency
and motives may often be called into
question. In the industrial and social
world, in the moral and religious
spheres the crying need Of the hour is
not for more leaders, but for better
brand of leaders. We need men at the
head of our present day movements
who have the qualities of a good shep-
herd. Men who understand the better
possibilities of human nature and who
are actuated not by thoughts of per-
sonal gain or distinction but by the
thought of the common good.
But there is bright side to the
picture. The leadership of Jesus in
miral and spiritual matters was never
more vigorously preached or sanely
followed than today. He is the dom1-
nant figure in our present day life.
The CLEAN Of his life has fallen
athwart the scholars desk, the states
man is following in his lead while to
His social conceptions the submerged
elements of our modern life are look
ing as the ultimate court of authority.
He is the Good Shepherd today in a
vaster sense than at any previous
time. The man who is confused In
his thoughts about God, the man who
is at loss to understand his own duty
and perplexed over the problem of
destiny is turning to Him with rever-
end heart and saying in the words Of
the familiar song, Saviour like a shep-
herd lead us, much we need thy ten
der care. In thy pleasant pastures
feed us, For our use Thy folds pre-
pare"

COUNTY CONTRACTS
FOR FARM LIGHTS
Commissioners Arrange for
Supply From Centerville
and Private Line.

Signatures of members of the board
OF county commissioners were Satur-
day appended to the contract for cleo
tricity from Centerville for the county
infirmary. Commissioners for ten
years have been trying to rid the farm
of oil light now in use.
The line from Centerville will be
run across private farms instead of
on poles Of the I. H., l. 4 E. Traction
company. 1t will be the county's pri-
vate line and will be maintained by
the county. The distance is shortened
by half by using private line.
Bids for the erection of poles and
stringing of wire will be received by
the commissioners June 81. After the
contract for the work is signed, the
line will be rushed to completion, and
the lnfirmary connected with the Cen
terville electric supply.
The rates in the contract are 10
cents kilowat, from one to fifty kilo-
watts; cents from fifty to 100; ce
cents to five hundred kilowats. The
farm probably will get the 9-cent rate.
The county council met Saturday
and decided that superintendent re-
quest for two silos is justified by con-
ditions at the farm, and passed in IA
vor of constructing the silos at cost
of $500.
Mr.. Petro is feeding a large number
of cattle and hogs and believes the
feeding conditions should be improved.
He believes the county will be repaid
for the silos in a short time by getting
results in better winter stock.
