was not well born. His mother. King
David's wife. was the daughter Of a
heather king nearby; and her son had
the disadvantage of being a member Of
the royal family and not required to
labor with sweat of face.
Absalom is first brought prominently

to receive his son
into his presence.
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1915-07-02

All these influences were unfavorable
to the young man, but none Of them
can excuse his treachery to his father.
AbsaIom's Conspiracy.
There were judges throughout the
land Of Israel to decide ordinary causes
of discomfort; but when their decisions
were unsatisfactory, appeal was made
to the king. David was busily engaged
In preparing materials for the Temple,
which was not to be built until after
his death. This may to some extent
have hindered his work as superior
judge, so that some cases. as In every
court, were delayed of a hearing.
We are not sure. however. that any
thing was lacking respecting King Da-
vids administration OF justice. We
merely know that his crafty son Alb.
salon very graciously heard the peo-
pies complaints. and very cunningly
expressed sorrow for their delay, say.
ing. would that l were king. 1t
would be different" Thus by decep-
ton, intrigue. falsehood. he ''stoe the
hearts Of the people" from his father.
They really began to think that if Alb
salon were king. they would be i'm
mensely better off. They seem to have
overlooked the fact that God was their
King, and that King David merely sat
upon the throne Of the Lord.
Absalom knew of his fathers reli.
giOus sentiments. which apparently he
did not at all share. He realized that
he would not probably be his fathers
choice for successor; and that ii
would soon be time for a new king. as
King David was aged. Following Sa
tan's course Of ambition and disloyal-
ty to God. he became disloyal to his ia
Their the king. He recruited an army.
proclaimed himself king. and did the
matter so quickly and so thoroughly
that King David and his army and his
loyal cOurtiers fed for their lives. Our
lesson recOunts the battle between Alb
saloms superior forces and King Da.
vid's smaller army, which. however.
were better trained soldiers. King Da.
vid was victorious. Absalom was slain.
notwithstanding King David's urgent
request that his soldiers should not
kill the young man.

PLAN EXTENSION
CLEARING HOUSES
FOR RESERVE BANKS

Washington, Feb. 1-Conferences
between members of the Federal Re-
serve Board, governors Of several Of
the reserve banks and some reserve
agents have developed definite plans
for the extension Of clearing house op
erations by the II regional reserve
banks. One feature OF the plan. il was
learned Saturday provides fund Of pos
sibly s25,000.000 10 be held in Wash
ington TO the credit of the reserve
banks, 20 take care of clearing opera
tons between them.
The results OF the deliberations,
which lasted several days. will be laid
before the entire Federal Reserve
Board next Monday. Since the plans
have the approval of ". P. G. Harding
and Paul II. Warburg. TWO members
experienced in practical banking. it
was believed tonight that they would
be Endorsed.
According TO information Saturday
the central fund in Washington is to
be gold and made OF deposits from
each of the u reserve banks. AS now
contemplated, each bank might put up
about 10 per cent of its reserve funds
in the central fund.
1t was understood that the secretary
Of the treasury might place some OF the
government money now OF deposit with
national banks in the fund to the credit
Of federal reserve banks. Such action
would allow reserve banks to make
smaller deposits in the central fund from
their own resources. This part of the
plan was said not to have met the ap-
prevail of Mr.. McAdoo as yet. and ic-is
possible that it will not be adopted. Its
rejection will not affect the general pro-
posal however.
In connection with clearings within a
district, the conference laid plans which
will not force member banks to clear
through their reserve banks. but which.
1t is hoped, will prove attractive to bank
ers and show the advantages Of general
intradistrict clearing. At first the plans
contemplate clearances only for such
banks as accept it. but eventually it Is
believed that all banks will come in.

DRASTIC CHANGE
IN P. 0. BILL SET
BACK PATRONAGE

Washington, Feb. I-Drastic changes
in the postoffice appropriation BILL
through one Of which the position Of as
sistant postmaster in first and second
class offices will be retained as at pres
ent, were made Saturday by the Senate
committee on posto.Rces and post roads
The Dill as it passed the House carried
about S325,11,0p. and this sum, il is said
in the Senate committee, will remain
approximately unchanged in the forth
coming report. although some OF the in
dividual items will be increased and 9TH
ers will be cut down.
Probably the most important change
proposed for the original measure, how
ever, is that to strike out the new office
OF superintendent of finance and to re-
tain the position OF assistant postmas-
ter. Many assistant postmasters In
Massachusetts would have been liable to
demotion under the House bill while a
way also would have been opened for
postmasters to appoint an equal number
OF new men TO the new Office at virtual
~ the same pay as that drawn by the
assistant postmasters
This would have provided a bountiful
tire country. OF which each postmaster
was expected TO partake with great ap-
petite.
Whether the present system of assist
ant postmasters shall be retained. or the
House plan Of substituting "superinten-
dents Of finance" shall be adopted, how
ever. depends on two things: The ac-
ton of the Senate on its own committees
report. and. if that be adopted, the action
of the conference committee from both
chambers.
On and after July !, 1915, the Senate
committee will recommend carriers at
first class offices shall be promoted sue
cessively to the fifth grade and carriers
at second class Offices to the fourth
grade. The item of pay for letter car
riers. substitutes. clerks in charge Of
substa tions, and tolls and ferriage, rural
delivery service, probably will be cut by
the Senate from So, 5000 to s52co, co..
Suggestions Of one-cent postage for
first class mail and for increase on sec
ond class mail. except newspapers, found
no favor in the Senate committee. which,

". S. Heath Post, G. A. R., Sons of
Veterans, Spanish War Veterans and
the LADIES' Auxiliartes affiliated with
each, attended the services Sunday
morning at the Unitarian church,
when the pastor, Rev. Frank L, Pha-
len, preached very practical, inter-
esting and inspiring sermon in mem
DRY of the greatest OF Americans,
Abraham Lincoln. 1t was not a trib-
ute. II was not a eulogy. II was rath-
er the exposition Of remarkable Ca
reer with its remarkable characteristic
that one might fashion his or her life
along the same pattern; and begov-
erned by the same instincts that ac-
companied every act Of the martyred
President.
Mr.. Phalen dwelt on Lincoln's sagac-
ity Of forethought. his tenacity of pur-
pose, his wit, his charity. his kindii-
ness, his love. his sense Of justice and
every great asset that placed the Ken
lucky rail-splitter on the highest sum-
NIT ever given to an American. The
sermon was an impressive lesson in
right living and right doing by reason
Of its excellent examples Turning from
the nation Of half a century ago, he
compared it with the present one. and
asked anyone who did not believe that
she country had progressed 20 look
back 50 years. Mr.. Phalen believes
that Lincoln was the greatest factor
in bringing together public spirit,
morality and intelligence. without
which the country would go to smash.
