keeping with the ideal of Westminster
Church were the services there on
Sunday last. Both services bespoke
the Christmas theme and the vesper
service. though simple was extreme
ly dignifed and inspirational. The
music was especially pleasing
Adding TO the dignity of the service
was the music of the harp played by
Mrs. Emma Rous and the accompani-
ment of the violin by +. William Mar
tin, which in trio with the organ, lent
the desired impressiveness to the ser
vice. Tho work OF the Doubt quar-
tet was especially good. The trio OF
harp. violin and organ in "Minuet." by
Beethoven, added just the note of sub
Unity TO that portion Of the service
and again the offertOry anthem
"Sleep Holy Babe" by Matthews, in
which Miss Ruth Wilson. contralto
took the solo part, with the chorus anC
obligato. was weIf rendered. A feat
ure was the quartet closing pOstlude

SERUM FOR FOOT
AND MOUTH disease
Is Subjected TO Severe Tests
by German Expert
menterS
PROTECTION
IS OBTAINED

CHICAGO. Dec. Discovery of a
serum for foot -and-mouth disease is re-
ported from warning Germany. This
news of vast interest to stoclmen is
contained in the translation of an ad-
dress of Prof. Frederick Loefiler, OF
Griefswald. before the Economic Society
Of the Kingdom of saxony. in Dresden.
The translated text of Professor Loef-
ilers address has been received by the
Breeders Gazette, Chicago farm
paper, which discusses it at length edi-
torially,
q "While the water seems to have pass
ed over the dam. so far as America Is
concerned for the present" says the Ca
zette. "our experience has been so dearly
bought that every fresh conclusion OF a
scientific nature concerning this plague
possesses a keen interest,"
1T is singular" the editorial also
says "that information concerning a
protective serum for foot-andmoutn
disease brought out two years ago in
the laboratory of the Prussian minister
of agriculture and indorsed by so emf
ncnt an authority as Professor Loefller
should have been unknown TO our live
stock sanitary authorities. Or hav,
they information which discredits tho
claims made for the serum? ?"
According 10 the Gazette's informa
tion. the foot-and mouth serum hal
been subjected to severe tests by Ger
man cXperimenters for the last tw'
years The results Of these tests show
ed in the opinion of Professor Loeiller
"bevond the shadow of doubt the prac
tical usefulness OF the serum" Tn
professor declared that protectioi
against the dread stock disease is i'm
mediatelv obtained.
The announcement in this country o
the discovery of the serum and its au
ih0rtHtivc Endorsement comes after tn
eminent scientists death, which wa
told ia cable dispatches of April Q. Pro
fcSsor Loeilier was the discoverer of tn
diphtheria bacillus in 1884. and wa
conspicuously quoted as an authority o
foot -and-mouth by Department of Ag
licultme officials at the recent meetin
,f the United States Livestock Sanitar
Association.
