Mating OF Town COUNCIL

At a meeting of the Town Council
Monday evening the question was
brought up as to the advisability of
looking into plans for the erection of
a suitable stone on or as near posi-
BILE to the point where the famous
sermon was preached by Gen. John
Peter Gabriel Muhlenberg.
The Mayor of the Town, Messrs.
H. Morrison. Jr.. F. s. Bowman and
Herbert Trotter were appointed a
committee to act on this subject and
report at the next regular meeting of
the Council.
The following paper was read by
Mr. Il. Morrison, Jr
John Peter Gabriel Muhlenberg
had been Lutheran minister for two
years when he was asked to take
charge of congregation in Wood
stock, Va.
This town was settled in greater
part by German Lutherans from Penn
sylvania, and they sought through
three Vestrymea of the Episcopal
Church, Col. Hugh Mercer and Mr..
Wood, of Winchester, Va. 1.-THE latter
afterward Governor of the STATED and
DR.. Peters, OF Philadelphia, Pa, the
services of some minister who could
preach in German.
AS the Church of England was the
only recognized religion in the Col
ony of Virginia at that time to have
the privilege Of the preaching and
benefit of the glebe land and living
1t was necessary that young Mullen
berg should be ordained Priest ir
the Episcopal Church. He went te
London and was ordained,-at th'
same time that Mr.. White, afterward!
Bishop of Pennsylvania and Mr.
Madison were-by Bishop Ely il
t1774. On his return, he took charge
of the mixed German and English
congregation here in Woodstock.
, The old Communion Service, tn,
large Bible and PRAYER Book h'
brought over are still in the church
at Woodstock.
81 In January. 1776. he preached from
! Ecclesiastes III s, and closed hi
sermon with the declaration that b,
thought the time to fight had come
Throwing aside his robe, he appeared
ia his Continental uniform and, Sun
r day, as it was, drums were beat ant
enlistmeLts commenced for his famous
Dutch regiment.
This incident has been WI itten abou
several times in the last or years
giving entirely fictitious names an,
loo alities.
The time has come to make thi
much OF history for General Mullen
berg for Woodstock, and the Revo
lutionary soldier by marking the spo
! with some suitable monument i

= scendents will not know truth fror

become to future generations myth.

s upon this matter now, and achieve
g definite object.

The Millennium.

Nobody has the faintest idea
when, if ever, the war of compe.
tition is to cease. It may be
that sometime men will live only
in thoughts, not deeds-in a
beatific contemplation of their
own ideals. Sometime the val.
leys may be exalted and the
mountains brought low, and we
shall live on a high plateau of
cooperative equality, when, to
supply his wants, a man will
have only to touch a button and
the machinery of government
will do the rest. "7rMh-Busness

Wealth. RING THE STORM OF
WAR.

WEh 1T KIM the STOkM OF
WAR.
The United States has everyI
reason for congratulation on the
condition in which it finds itself
financially, commercially and in.
dustrially after a year of a gle
gantic war that paral, zeI large
part of the worlds trade and ur-
settled all business
This is due chiefly, ne doubt,
to the wisdom and sanity of
American business men and the
inherent soundness of America Il
industries but few probably
will withhold a large share of
the credit from the wise and
helpful financial policy of the
Wilson Administration, which
has stood ready at all times tol
stay any disposition toward panic
aud to prevent any money strin-
gency.
For several years previous to
the war there had been a slack
ening of business all over the
world-a sort of lull and stagna-
tion that looks now as if the f.
nancial forces of the world knew
or suspected that the war was
coming. This idea is strength
ened when we remember that for
six months or year before hos.
tilities began Europe was drain
ing this country of its gold by
purchase.
In this country conditions we're
slowly improving, but were not
good. Then suddenly the war
cloud broke and the commerce of
the earth was paralyzed for the
time. The South was left with
a 5000, 000-bale cotton crop on
its hands and the price was cut
in half. All our immense trade
with Germany and Austria was
practically abolished. There was
no market left for many kinds of
American goods that had been
exported to the value of many
millions.
But there was an immense de-
mand at once for American food
Stuffs, and soon the orders for
tents. uniforms, shoes, hats,
blankets, automobiles and so on
began to pour in. and later for
guns, shells and ammunition.
All this has helped the situation
greatly, of course. but is not re-
sponsible for it.
The so-called war stocks have
made sensational gains in Wall
street, but it is reported that
there is hardly a stock or bond
dealt in on the New York Ex-
change that is not higher in
price than it was just before the
war began, including railroads
and industrials.
And America is fast becoming
the great creditor nation of the
world. 1t was foreign money
that to large extent built the
railroads of America and aided
in the vast development of the
country since our Civil War. We
still owed Europe a great debt.
1t is now estimated that such of
the debt as is left is more than
counterbalanced by the debt that
Europe owes us, and that isl
growing enormously.
Foreign exchange has dropped
to unheard-of figures. which
means, for example, that a credit
of I'll in London can be bought
alta heavy discount in Baltimore
or New York. Foreign exchange
is being largely reckoned in |
terms of dollars instead of pounds
sterling. as heretofore.
As the war goes on the war|
orders OF this country increase
beyond its capacity for the mo-
ment, and great plants are being
projected and built to supply tile
demand. If the war continues
much longer, Europe will have a
Tremendous reckoning to pay tol
Uncle Sam, who is likely to hold
the purse-strings of the world

such an awakening as must come to
arouse most every town before II

opportunity, it will be ready TO go

OF those who have never lost

future is going TO witness bigger
and better development than the
Northwest has ever seen before, per-

than has been seen In the past, and
the communities that are ready are
