Resolutions.

Whereas, Brother J L. Strader had
for years been superintendent of the
Baptist Sunday School, having been
faithful in all things, loved and honor
ed and respected by all at all times,
using his influence for the church and
Sunday school, and the up building
of the Masters work.
Whereas, we his friends and CO.
laborers feel that his departure fir ON
among US is a great loss to the COM
munity; among the young people he
had a great influence, and the Sunday
School has lost a useful Bible teacher
whose influence will be long felt and
his memory ever cherished.
Resolved, That We extend to Bro.
Strader and family prayers for a
successful and prosperous future, and
may the Lord bless him in his work
wherever he goes.

HAVE taken a very humble part in
many national campaigns. They are
always %engrossing and exciting, and
sometimes very bitter; but for imagin-
alive statement and vituperation the
opponents of Woodrow Wilson may
be truly said to ''take the cake" I
do not now allude to those little fell
lows who may be always depended
upon to go the limit, on the score that
tall is fair in love and war''-which
is in itself a lie, by the way. A small
mind is imaginative in its W behalf.
But of big men-men of trained
intellect and broad vision-we reason
ably expect something higher and
better. Senator Lodge of Mas
sachusetts has long posed as the ex-
ponent of intellectual ir-dealing
and dainty righteousness; as above
the grosser NEAR employed by us of
the common mould. Yet we find him
retailing a campaign canard 80 pitt
fully absurd that an intelligent man
lowers himself in giving it the value
of refutation. He says that some
body told him that President Wilson
added a postscript to his note to
Germany in regard to the Lusitania
murders, saying, in short, ''pay no at
tention to the above; we do not mean
1t to be taken seriously, and only put
1t forth to satisfy our people," The
able Senator says he didn't see the
postscript, but was told "it had disap-
peared.n Does the statement | n ques-
tion being given him warrant his re-
failing 1t without the cleareet proof?
The Cabinet members who would
have Q the pretended postscript II
1t had been added, deny the story,
but that 10 unnecessary. The wonder
10 that so palpable a falsehood should
have been put forth. The fact that
Germany acceded to the demands Of
the note 10 sufficient proof that no
qualifying crawfishing postscript was
written.

READ the proposed Prohibition
Amendment carefully, brethren. 1t
denies your right to obtain wine, beer
or whiskey for any other purpose
than ''sacramental." Why this ex-
ception? Is the Demon Rum neces-
sary to salvation through the church?
Why not use grape juice, vinegar or
water? The Master not only drank
wine, but miraculously made it to
grace a certain wedding feast; utthat
was long ago and we are wiser and
better now. Not only do we who are
within the pale eschew the fermented
fruit of the grape, but we're going to
make everybody else abstain-not
from conviction, but by force of
statute made at our pleasure. The
use of the liquor is not to be allowed
even in sickness or exhaustion. Ii
you charge US with being unreason-
able in this we cite you to history and
tradition for our warrant. The saints
of old, through statutory penalties,
forced all men into uniform religious
practice for their good; shall we not
for the same eason lay down for our
neighbor a simple sumptuary rule?
Yea. verify! Later on we can tackle
the heresies which divide the faithful.
After the body, we'll look after the
soul-by statute. The n will follow
the other as naturally as night follows
day.
