Washington. Sept. 2s.-The forty
ninth annual encampment Of the
Grand Army Of the Republic reached
its climax today when 20, 900 Yeterana
marched from the Capitol grounds up
Pennsylvania Avenue just as they did
fifty years ago last May, past the
White House and were reviewed by
the President.
1t was an inspiring sight. The ma
tional flag was everywhere In evidence
The blue uniforms and the weIl-worn
battle flags OF many regiments car
ried in the Civil War were predomin-
ant. The veterans In the parade were
for the most part feeble. their steps
were heavy and slow. but their en-
thusiasm was unrestrained.
Confederate, TOO. Falls In"
One of the marching veterans today
appeared clad in the faded blue uni
form and service cap that he wore
on the grand review march OF 1865.
Some of them sang their war songs as
they trudged along and repeated the
battle yell. Unable to curb his en-
thusiasm. one ex-Confederate veteran,
CARRIED in his uniform, fell into line
and marched over the entire course
with the Pennsylvania veterans, carry
ing the Stars and Stripes and cheering
as lustily al anybody. In front Of the
Presidents reviewing stand he halted.

A most important feature of what

that In some instances conversation

The clearness Of the transmission OF

ton or remode1fng. Mr.. Embury finds
the public buildings, especially the
church buildings, of the colonial era
exhibiting a design more homogene-
GUS, more free of sectional differentia-
ton than is the case in the architec-
ture of dwelling houses And there
was less change in the principles of
design in all the years between 1888
and 1880 than in the next quarter of
century. If there was in church
architecture, as between the North
and South, any appreciate difference
in respect of Puritan simplicity and
aristocratic luxury it is said to have
been, in reversal of reasonable expec-
tation, in the direction of ornamental
ton in the North and severity of de-
sign in the South Probably" says
the author, ''the richest and most or
nate of all American churches were
Christ church and st. Peters in Phila-
delphia, midway between North and
South" The regional comparison is
not particularly Illuminating.

TAKING CREDIT FOR SUCCESS
ers May Have Been Helpful in
Ones Upward Climb.

Success means to the average per-
son merely the reward of merit; but
to the few who understand it's sig
ni1cance it means a great deal more.
1t stands for much patient prepare
tory work, the foundations of which
are often laid by others but which it
is left to us to make use Of. We can
not get very far in this world without
the help of others, and it is this fact
that we SO often lose sight Of when
prosperity begins to shine upon US
and life is opening up with brilliant
promise. We like to feel the pride of
achievement because it seems in some
way to enhance our self-importance,
and the latter quality is one that
many of us find very stimulating in
it's effects. We like to succeed, first
of ALL and then we like to feel that we
deserve all the credit Indeed, it often
happens that the very weakness of
human nature deludes us into tenn
porary belief that we are solely re-
sponsible. We consider only present
conditions and do not concern our
selves with certain facts that to 9TH
ers appear self-evident. Success
sometimes turns our heads; it fatters
our self-importance and before we
know it we grow by leaps and bounds
in our estimation.-Charles News
and Courier.

ABSENT-M MINDED, BUT LUCKY
ing With Systematic and Hon.
est TradespeopIe.

There's an old adage that guardian
angels always protect children and
fools. Absent-minded individuals
often have it brought home to them
that SOME higher power keeps an eye
on them also.
She went into New York shoe shop
to buy pair of slippers. AS she was
in a hurry to catch train for the
country she said she'd take them with
her. The slippers were eight dollars.
She gave the clerk a twenty-dollar bill
and walked out.
Late the next day messenger boy
arrived at her apartment and left a
small sealed parcel for her. 1t was
her change from the twenty-dollar bill.
'But how did they get my name?"
she pondered. She went to the shoe
shop and explained her curiosity.

There is a published report to
the effect, that munitions of war to
the value of $3.50, 900, 900 has been
shipped from this country to the
Allies in Europe to be used in
slaughtering, in this in the end OF
the twentieth century. If .uch has
been the case, ou1 neutrality has
been farce and a disgrace to our
civilization and professed christian
ity. The terrible war now raging
across the sea between nations
claiming to be christian, is a sad
travesty on the gospel of love
taught and preached by the best
men that ever trod the globe, God
pity the men. responsible for the
slaughter of millions of men, the
misery, wretchedness and devasta-
ton they have occasioned by their
ambition, greed and revenge.

Guy FaWkes Funds.

The English still celebrate the fail
ure OF the gunpowder plot, but most of
them are unaware that several SER
mons are even to this day preached
on the subject. In 1880 a loyal citi-
zen of Nottingham-Peter Jackson
died, and by his will left 40 shi1lings
per annum for the preaching of two
sermons in st. Peters church in his
native city-one on July % and the
other on November 5-"acknowledg
ing Gods mercy and giving thanks for
the deliverance of this land and peo-
pie from the invincible armada ESQ
called in 1888 and from the gunpow-
der plot in 1905" The sermons are
still preached in spite Of the passing
of centuries.-Pall Mall Gazette

1t must have been pleasing to
those who attended the inaugural
yesterday OF Gov. E. L. Phillip,
the first real republican governor
that has been inaugurated to that
high office in this state, for 10, these
many years. The chief executives
we have had for a long time, it
seems, were just masquerading in
the political habitments as repub-
licans, but their hearts did not beat
IN unison with the music of the
party to which they had attached
themselves for office.

Fox Terrier Model of Bravery,

The effective valor of the fox ter
rier against odds is again proven by
the achievement of the Bloomingdale
IN. j. dog which chased a gray fox
into hole in Federal hill and killed it
after a desperate encounter. All for
lorn hopes look alike to the gay little
white dog with the large brain and
the fighting jaw. He has the elan of
the French soldier, the cheerful pug
nacity of the German and the forti-
tude Of the Russian. Unfortunately
for him sometimes, he does not know
when he is beaten, and he is as eager
to renew a conflict as to resent an in
suit If of the true breed, fear is as
foreign to his temperament as calcu-
lation of the risks of an adventure.
He never turns his back upon the
bristling enemy and he never DULLES
the weak. Brave to a fault is a de-
scription that fits the fox terrier better
than any of the human kind.

All Outdoors Their Enemy.

These Korean children, living in
mud huts and playing in yards circum
scribed by bamboo paling or mud
walls, have not a square chance at
cleanliness. Sanitation is unknown in
the ordinary Korean household Fresh
air is considered an enemy rather
than friend, and all apertures
through which little air might enter
are carefully closed. The smoke from
the fire, where the family rice is
cooked, runs through a pipe under
meath the earthen floor of the living
room and finds an exit on the side of
the wall, and not upon the roof, and
these blackened exits are a part of
the side-wall decorations of Korean
homes.-Christian Herald.

Outdoor Odors.

Lafcadio Hearn describes smelling
party in Japan, at which the guests
undertake to name a large number
of scents by smelling the burning in
cense sticks. Here is an effort in the
land of outdoor doors to develop the
sense of smell along with the sensi-
tiveness of the other faculties of
sense. How important is the sense Of
smell when one walks amid the path
ways and avenues of the wide open!
What an added delight if one is able
to detach the more pregnant from the
multifarious elements of incense of
the flowers and trees and vegetation
in general. This should be a power
commensurate with that of the trained
musician to detect the quality of in
strumentation Of every player in an
orchestra. 1t should, in fact, be a
mark of culture But it is not so. Yet
the absence of trained powers of
smelling does not prevent enjoyment,
even if it denies discrimination in the
enjoyment of the odorous out-of-
doors. The magnificent gardens of
nature are regal in color, but they
are regal as well in perfume.

CameIs in Warfare,

Camels are, as might be expected,
no new feature of warfare in the East.
Basar was in the year 656 the scene
of fight known as the battle of the
camel, in which Ayeshah, the wife of
Mohammed, headed the charge mount
ed upon one of these beasts. And
down through the centuries Arab
hosts have been led by a girl riding
on a blackened camel, singing songs
of encouragement to her own side and
insult to the other. According to the
strict rules of the game her capture
or death meant the flight of her tribe,
while in the event of victory she led
the triumphal march.
