LOCAL MENTION.
Suspense

The saddest Job on earth is
waiting, for good or ill-it's Just
the same; at other times the
hours so skating, but when we
wait they re halt and lame. Some
dire misfortune we arc dreading ;
the waitings worse than is the
blow we say, Wed think it bet
ter shedding ii grief would do its
worst and go. The man who's
waiting for the sheriff to lead him
TO the gallows floor, and there re-
duce him to a seraph, is glad when
all the waiting's DER. We wait
for some expected blessing, with
hopes that buoy, and fears that
rack: and waiting for its SO dis
tressing that when it comes we
send it back. We wait and wait
for dinner. and when it's dished.
some two hours later, our appe-
tite. that was a winner, has
jumped its job and pulled its
freight. When we are kids we're
sadly waiting for limping years to
make us men; when manhood
comes its cares we're hating, and
wish that we were kids again.
We're waiting always, waiting
ever, for something foul, or some
thing fair; the end will come to
waiting never. until we wait for
harps up there

BISHOP THINKS LAYMEN
SHOULD EXTEND WORK
DR.. Harding Declares Labor Within
One Parish Inadequate, Dis
cussing Missionary Meeting.

Declaring that the lay churchman is
beginning to realize that interest con-
fined to one parish of the church is not
only selfish and unchristian, but quite
unworthy of the modern mind, and in
adequate to layman's full possibili-
ties, Bishop Harding last night issued
statement analyzing some of the rea-
sons why SO many of the Episcopal
laity and clergy are devoting attention
to plans for the big missionary mass
meeting to be held at Continental Me-
mortal Hall next Thursday night, un-
der the auspices of the diocese of
Washington.
The statement is as follows:
Interest in the cause of missions
nowadays is probably prompted by
practical consideration. although very
worthy ones, rather than by consid-
eratlons of faith. The ardent church.
man hopes that the latter appeal will
come again.
In this very material age it is prob
ably true that the PRACTICAL argument
introduces missionary interest to the
average mind quicker than bare faith.
welfare of his own parish is beginning
TO realize that interest confined to one
mere parish is not only selfish and un-
christian, but quite unworthy of the
modern mind and inadequate to a lay
mans full possibilities
Christian Stimulus.
THE laity of any parish who really
takes an interest in the growth of
Christendom finds a greater stimulus
for Christian effort in the Christian
work done elsewhere than they do in
the work done III their own parish. 1t
is something like the precocious child
stirring the tired parent to a greater
and more joyful effort.
THE war in Europe is promoting the
study of geography and of nations and
peoples. People never get SO well ac-
quainted as when they are fighting.
There is picture in a recent number
of an illustrated English newspaper
showing German and English soldiers
fraternizing over the barbed-wire en-
tanglements. Thus it is that men even
on battlefelds have natural instincts
that knows no national boundary, and
a desire for the friendship of the
world
To-day. the civilized world thinks of
everything in terms of the world The
religious interest displayed among the
soldiers on the battlefieIds shows that
mans true interest is pointed toward
God, although his muskets are pointed
toward his brothers.
Examples of Interest.
THE thousands thronging to hear Rev.
Mr.. Sunday preach, the recent au-
dience of 400 Chinese students in
