Annual Report of the Young Peoples
Society of the Union Church
of Palisade, N. J.

1. Financial.
The year 1915 was started with
balance of $24.23. At the present
time we have $29.69 on hand. Our
sources of revenue are Sunday even
ing collections, rental of the stere-
optican lantern and small balances
from parties given by the Society.
2. Devotional.
Meetings have been held on all
Sunday evenings during the church
year. During the spring the devo-
tional meetings were led by the Rev.
Mr.. Erickson. The fall services have
been led chiefly by the Rev. Mr.. Bar
sam. The attendance has dropped
from about twenty to about twelve.
A good revival of the Society has
been planned and the new devotional
committee of Messrs. Barsam, Hol-
linger, and Berkey will have charge
of affairs for the coming three
months. Each meeting will be care
fully worked out under able and en-
thusiastic leaders. Those who come
to the meetings will be sure to re-
ceive good deal of help and inspira-
ton.
3. Home Missionary.
The Society is now raising funds,
by subscription list, to support the
boy, Eugene Lewis, at the Berkshire
Industrial School for the year 1915.
This money $3.50, must be turned
over by February l, 1916. A Com
mitee is at work getting subscrip-
tons and will appreciate your aid in
the work.

Several changes have been made
during the year and these have af-

classes.
The attendance of the School is
slightly increased and the regularity
of attendance is considerably i'm
proved. There were twelve pupils
with essentially perfect attendance
during the past year, as against seven
for the previous year. Special at
tention should be drawn to the at
tendance record of Mrs. Phillips
class which has held the lead through
the year, and to the increase in num-
bers in Professor Crawford's class.
I should also call attention to the
fact that the Adult Class under Pro-
fessor Rautenstrauch is now firmly
established, and although it varies
materially from Sunday to Sunday,
there is good, live interest shown
in more advanced studies by con-

While TO one can tell what the season
may bring forth it has certainly been a
hard year for farmers up to this time,
and the middle of July finds planting,
hoeing and haying going on. In some
cases, and with certain crops, planting
had to be given up. In other cases plant
1ng was so deferred by continued rains
That only an unusually late fall can en-
sure results. Grass has grown wonder
fully, but needed more sunshine to give
it substance, and the value of the hay
crop will depend upon the condition in
which it is got into the barns. The worst
case of hard luck of which we have
heard is that of farmer in Anlroscog-
gin county, whose corn was all pulled up
by crows and whose garden was des-
troyed by woodchucks. The garden had
had close attention and was furnishing,
but one morning it was found to have
been stripped of every growing thing.
Aroostook was spared from the almost
continuous rains that prevailed in other
8 ections of the State; was enabled to
plant as usual, and the potato crop,there

The Boston Transcript in the article
printed OF another page correctly sizes
up "The Carranza Proposition. Mexico,
like Germany, has found this country
"easy." julius Chambers says. in the
Brooklyn Daily Eagle:
The whole problem of war between the
United States and Mexico turns upon the
control Carranza is able to exercise over
several millions of utterly incongruous
inhabitants of the great peninsula, and,
secondly, upon the reliance to be placed
upon his assurances. In neither respect
has Carranza justified confidence hereto
fore. His orders to General Trevino to
ambush the members of the Tenth Cav
airy, after he had consented to the pass
age of United States troops through
Mexico in search of the Villa bandit,
were as cold-blooded and malicious as
any act of Indian warfare. Punishment
is yet to be melted out to perpetrators OF
that Carrizal outrage. Carranza has not
even taken the trouble to disavoW the
acts of his commander.
And the Eagle says, editorially, that
"watchful waiting cannot be resumed at
Washington" that
Anything but a settlement that settles
would not be worth the sacrifice of
single life. With the right kind of set
Element, devastation in Mexico can be
translated into development, privation
into prosperity, chaos into order. With
the wrong kind would come calamltous
addition to the long list of mistakes, re-
sponsibility for which cannot be disclaim-
ed. There is species of laundering that
is criminal
The Republican journal. [volume] (Belfast, Me.) 1829-current, 1916-07-13

We doubt if people generally are aware
of the humiliating and embarrassing
position in which this country has been
placed through intermeddling with Mex
lean affairs and the "watchful waiting"
policy with regard to that country.
Every move thus far has brought us
nearer 10 a war in which this country
would have nothing to gain and every
thing to lose. The sending of troops
into Mexico in pursuit of Villa, the ban
dit who had invaded our soil, murdered
our people and destroyed their property,
is resented by the Central and South
American republics, while this and other
moves by the administration have array
ed all classes in Mexico against US and
intensified their haired of the Gringoes.
If we blunder into or are forced into
war with Mexico, we are pledged not to
retain any part of the country, and the
acquisition Of the whole of Mexico would
not be worth what it would cost to con-
9uer and control it. Nobody wants a
war with Mexico, but everybody wants
our people and their property protected
at home and abroad.

While we have not seen copy of the
New York Sun since it was bought by
Frank A. Munsey, owner of the New
York Press and numerous magazines, and
who has consolidated the two newspapers,
we infer from the comments of contem-
poraries that the Sun of Charles A. Dana
is no more. AS reader, and admirer, of
the Sun from the time when it was a
four page paper, with distinctive indl-
viduality, we regret this total eclipse of
a Journalistic luminar After the death
of Dana the business management of the
Sun devolved upon VIM. M. Latin, man
of education, brains and originality, a
connolsseur and lover of art, possess
ing many of the characteristics of Dana,
with whom he had been intimately as
sociated. In the editorial department
was E. P. Mitchell, whose work on a
Maine newspaper attracted Mr.. Dana s
attention and he was called to New York
for service on the Sun. Both Latin
and Mitchell were thoroughly imbued
with the Sun spirit and true TO its
traditions, and and the literary style
and policy that characterized the pa
per under Dana were maintaine d. The
death of Mr.. Latin was followed by a
change of ownership, but the paper went
on much as before. Now, although 1t is
said that Mr.. Mitchell will remain on the
editorial staff, it Is no longer the Sun
that Dana created. Perhaps something
different was needed, but many will re-
gret the change

in severely criticising President Wilson 8

the current issue of The Independent is
specially outspoken and emphatic. And
this is the opening paragraph of an edi-

of Buying Peace in Mexico"
No price is toohigh for the Administra-
ton to pay the de facto government of
Mexico to hold off formal declaration of
war against the United States until after
election day. Swallowing insults long
