THE INFLUENCE OF CHURCHES.

The following editorial clipped from
the Bel Air Times is well worth a place
in this paper:
There is much discussion nowadays
of practical religion and the influence
exerted by the churches of today in
comparison with the past. In the cities
today, many of the churches are adver-
Using and it is not uncommon on Sun
day evenings to hear discussions on
social topics, an unheard OF proceeding
IN former times. In the country dis
trlcts the churches are unquestionablv

lifting in the community. Some are
scarcely alive but all WELD a more or
less powerful influence over the lives
of the people. Under whatever name
or denomination, man counts for
what he is and not by his church affilia-
ton. Today the church is making a
serious effort to vitalize religion by
emphasizing the practical side We all

something different. The church to-
day is holding up the ideal obedience to
known duty and the application of the
principles of Christianity in our rela
lions with our fellow-men. 1t is a good
sign to see the public at church services
but the influence exerted by them the
other SIX days is what counts today as
never before. All mankind is seeking
happiness but awakes sooner or later
to the realization that it rarely, if ever,
comes from seeking. The life that is
busy doing deeds of helpfulness, bring
ing good cheer and sunshine, living
simply and honestly, may not be rich in
dollars but is rich in character and in
all that is worth while. Sorrows NAV

distress may abound. but the soul that
is IN harmony with God and lives in the
spirit. finds JOY and felicity that is I'M
known to those who have not found
the true wav of life. The church
needs the people, but the people need
the church much more. In these times
when so many do not go'to church at all,
and when the invitation to come is so
cordially extended, when the church is
SO confident that it has a message so
important and helpful to men and wo-
men, non-church goers should put them
to the test. Billy Sundays methods
may not be to the liking of some but
his message thrilled thousands of Phila-
delphians and more than 10000 agreed
to try the new life he told them of.

THE ODlOUS COMPARISON.

Former Senator Elihu Root, IN an ad-
dress before the Union League of
Philadelphia, where he was hailed as
the first citizen of the Republic, "
drew comparison between the condi-
tons of the country under the McKin-
ley administration and the disordered
state of affairs under the present Dem
ocratic President. The distinction was
sharply drawn, showing that the in
fiuences that prevailed during the ad-
ministration of President Mckinley and
started the country on an unexampled
period of prosperity were not only
Stunned by President Wilson, but re-
buffed when they had the temeritv to

lated to encourage and help business
and industry. 1t was the business men
of the country who were mainly instru-
mental in electing President Mckinley.
and his administration was conducted
along lines that were helpful to bust.

until the accidental election of Wilson

tons encouraged and fostered the pros

that prosperity.
In comparison with the prosperous
days, Senator Root pointed out what

A GOOD FRIDAY SERVICE

An opportunity to attend a Good Fri
day service will be given to the people
OF this city in st. Matthew's Episcopal
church. The service will begin prompt
ly at IL O'Clock noon and lasts until 8
p. m. This is day that christian
people of all denominations should
recognize and observe. 1t is the aim of
the rector to make it popular service
for all people. Addresses will be made
on the seven words from the cross.
Popular hymns will be used. Easter
cannot be appreciated unless we recog-
nize in some way the meaning of the
Cross OF Good Friday. 1t puts pain and
love together, death and resurrection.
1t brings to US the Fatherhood of God
as exemplified in the death and the ris-
ing again of His Own Son. 1t is victory
out of defeat. light out of darkness. 1t
brings to all of US who have burdens
grievous to be borne the thought that a
cross is carried in every life, but that
an Easter dawning appears over the
horizon.
Those who attend this service are at
liberty to leave the church at their own
pleasure. Come, if it is only for few
minutes. and in so doing make Easter
more glorious festival of Christianity.

TURNING TO ECONOMY.
[ Knoxville Journal and Tribune. I

Knoxville Journal and Tribune.
The statement is made that President
Wilson will turn his attention to the
question of economy in public expendi-
lures. 1t comes a little late, but
better late than never Had he given
that question some consideration during
the sitting of the last Congress it might
have saved Uncle Sam a good many
dollars.
But he has said once himself that he
had "a one-track m nd" and the track
upon which his mind was running has
not been an economy track. For some
reason or other. best known to him
self, he has shown a more strikingly
sympathy for what has been called pro-
gresslveness since his election than he
showed before He was looked upon
while president at Princeton as a con-
sentative, as president of the United
States he has shown himself to be
about as progressive as his Secretary
of State.
If in his pursuit of the trusts and of
big business with his tomahawk, he
overlooked the fact that his party in
Congress was taking dollars out of
Uncle Sans pocket instead of putting
dollars in, why with one track mind,
it can be understood that things were
happening of which he knew not. 1t
probably gives the President pain now
when he sees that appropriations were
made larger than ever before; but it is
too late to afford remedy; the milk
has been split, and it wouldn't pay to
cry over it.

THIS week, throughout Christendom

of the Christ is told, of his death, res
direction and ascension into the heavens

they were parties of interest. The
same is true of manufacturers, bank
ers, ship owners, merchants, men of all
lines of trade. And these same men of
business and trade who are prosperlng
under Republican rule were told by the
autocrat of the White House that the
reason they did not get along now was
that they didn't know how to run their
business. And so it has come about
that experience and knowledge of the
business affairs of the country have
disqualified men from taking part in the
conduct of the government, all under
the elusive name of the New Freedom!

TREATMENT
FOR OILY SCALPS

Men and women whose hair and
scalp are excessively oily suffer more
in the warmer months than at any
other time. The summers dust and
dirt mingle with dandruff, cling to
the oily hair and scalp, clog the scalp
pores, stife the hair roots and make
proper cleansing almost impossible.
Partisan Sage is an ideal treatment
for this trouble. Wash the hair not
oftener than once a week, but use
Partisan Sage twice daily, pouring a
little into the parted hair and rubbing
briskly right into the scalp with the
finger tips. 1t drives out dandruff,
dissolves the excess oil and stimu-
iates the scalp into healthy normal
action. Sold by F. D. Pierce and
leading druggists everywhere.
Sold and guaranteed in Orleans by
F. j Kinney.

the Vermont state fair at White River

The only competition they will have
this year will come from New Hamp-
shire and Maine. Therefore, only
New England stock will be on exhibit
ton The idea seems to have prevailed
in some quarters of the state that
cattle from other states should not be
allowed to compete with native stock
at the state fair and this policy of
open competition that has governed in
past years has prevented many Yer
mont farmers from making entries.
With the field limited to but three
states, Vermonters are expected to
exert themselves to win the prizes
