Many of US would gladly when the

heads in the loving arms of mother and
pour forth as in babyhood our per-
plexities of the day. We are all alike;
we all have had mothers and we love
her best of all. Her hand did more for
us than any other-her love was ours
before we were born; she planned our
future and sacrificed and suffered as we
who have become mothers ourselves
can realize.
We love our tiny babies; we never
grow weary in caring for them and as
we work we dream of their future, and
plan and save, giving up all our outside
pleasures sacrificing everything so
that our children will be well cared for
and happy; and we watch and tremble
as the little toddling feet go so uncer-
tainly about and they stumble and fall.
Then as they come to young manhood
and young womanhood we tremble the
more for their safety, for there are so

THOMAS c. FRIEND.

lhOIlAO y. / MENU
Thomas C. Friend was born at
Friendsvile, Md, and died at his home
at Lake Ford, Md, April q, 1916, aged
SO years, II months. and days.
He leaves a wife, two sons. and four
daughters to mourn their loss, while
a son and one daughter preceded him
to the spirit world.
Obituaries of good men need not be
written. The attempts to eulogize the
life and character of the faithful and
true are feeble indeed, compared to the
grandeur of the life itself.
Good men write their own eulogies.
Write them indelibly upon the hearts
and minds of those with whom they as
sociate and mingle while here, there to
remain as the years come and go, in
centives eyer to beckon US onward to
lives of noble endeavor and christian
living.
We all appreciate beauty, and wor-
ship at the shrine of the beautiful The
opening bud, the full blown rose in all
it's tints and shades of color; the sun in
his splendor, the landscape, the forest,
all things beautiful delight the heart of
man, but the beauty of a life so spent
in allegiance to the doctrines and teach
ing of the most beautiful character who
ever trod this beautiful earth of ours, -
the Gracious Saviour-far transcends
all other ideals of the beautiful how
ever loet.

only gone before. give US new aspira-
tons, higher ideals, and encourage

IT'S human to err, and whatever of
the evil or ugly we might have observ-

seems to be a trait of our natures to
throw the mantle of charity over 1t all

beautiful. IT'S well it is so. We could

The Mining Engineers.

Arizona is primarily a mining and judging from the extent value of her mineral resources will undoubtedly be ranked one of the worlds greatest mining districts for few score centuries to come The sooner this fact is seen and taken at its full face value by citizens of Phoenix, the better it will be for Centrally located midway between the copper districts of the south and east and the equally rich copper and gold dis tricts of the north and west, and immediately sur rounded by Arzonas largest and most fertile agri- cultural valley this city lacks but one thing to make her the acknowledged mining center of the southwest Here is wonderful inland empire, willing and ready pay rich tribute to those who will best serve its needs. Here is a condition where every prospect pleases" and only is apathetic and in different There has been great improvement in Phoenix the past two years in this respect the money from the mines has been forced upon us, and many Phoenicians, almost against their will, have recently participated in successful mining opera tions Gradually We beginning to learn that min ing indeed a legitimate business, and that every new mine in the state a better, bigger and more satisfactory market the products of this valley.
 The mining interests have asked little of Phoenix. but for some reason, Phoenix seems to have always expected more from them than she gave, especially in the past Today happily this condition is rapidly passing away and we and more prosperous Arizona than dreamt of a few years ago, shining forth with a spirit of genuine play. The Salt River valley will find it's marketing prob lem we'll on the a satisfactory solution when it shall have made intelligent study of the re- qurements the mining camps of the state, and educated it's farmers the production of the right of crops the right seasons in order to meet those requirements. First of all need co-opera- ton home, and then the entire state needs operation between its various great interests When more of home people are stockholders in the mines of Arizona we shall hear less complaint of outside control and political interference and shall have a better and sympathetic under standing of the minetax problem
 Today Phoenix extends a hearty welcome the visiting members of the American institute of min- ing engineers, who will arrive here this evening" 15O strong It is to be regretted that they allotted so short a time their stay in this city, but are sure that Phoenix will make a most favorable impression upon them, if their visit is limited but few hours. As Arzona's largest city and the commercial center of the state Phoenix should give location the headquarters offices many a big mining company That many such will be attracted here the next few years certain, and in this connection should leave nothing undone properly impress distinguished and influential visitors of today the mining engineers with the advantages Phoenix offers.

CONTRACT LET OV
 NEW BANK BUILDING

The contract has been let for the erection of the new Salt River Valley bank, a photographic outline of which appeared recently in The Republican. Clinton Campbell, of Phoenix, secured the contract, which calls for two-sto- ry full basement reinforced concrete building, 60X75 feet Lescher and Kib- bey are the architects. The ground floor will be divided into ample quar- ters for the bank, and still leave room for two store rooms, one opening on Main, the other on Mcdonald street The interior bank enclosure will include a solid marble base and marble cornice Windows sufficient to accommodate the public with no unnecessary delay, are included in the upper work. The upper floor will be divided into office rooms, every room well ventilated and lighted with partitions soundproof. The entire building is to be steam heated and no expense is being spared in mak- ing it an up to date and thoroughly complete structure. The strength of the building is assured in the placing of steel girders under both the ground and upper floors, with the outside col umns of reinforced concrete, filled in between with the best quality of brick
 Work will begin as soon as possible and pushed as rapidly as safety and sound construction will permit.

REVIEW

Golden Text.-"We look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; hut the things which are not seen are eternal" ? Cor. 1: IS.
 The lessons of this quarter extend over period of but six years, from A. D. 52A D. 5S. They are all about Paul, his life and his teachings. It is somewhat difficult to review them in a logical way because of the order in which they come in the lessons of the quarter. The lessons skip about a good deal from the story of his life as recorded in the Acts of the Apos- ties to his Epistles, and the passages from the Epistles are not always in- troduced in their exact chronological place. However, the lessons can De profitably reviewed under two heads "The leading events in Paul life" and The prominent points in his char acter." We get here a few prominent points in his character as brought out in the lessons of the quarter: In Lesson 1 we have his untirine activity and his persistent use of the Scriptures
 In Lesson II we have his unwaveT- | ing interest in those converted through his ministry, and his unceasing pray erfulness.
 In Lesson III we have his tact ant wisdom in preaching the Risen Chris and the need of repentance.
 In Lesson w. We have his untirins activity in preaching Christ in tn, midst of great Encouragement an. bitter opposition.
 In Lesson V we have his persisten determination to know nothing and tC preach nothing; save Jesus Christ, ant Him crucified.
 In Lesson VI We have his emphasi upon love as the supreme gift.
 In Lesson VII we have his wonder full exposition of the duty and blessed ness of cheerful giving.
 In Lesson VIII we have his daunt less courage.
 In Lesson TX we have his humility compassionate love and fearless dec laration of the whole counsel of Goo
 In Lesson X we have his joy i suffering for Christ.
 In Lesson XI we have his forgetful ness of self, and eagerness to preac the Gospel on every possible oppor tunity; even when threatened by wild mob.
 In Lesson XII we have again hi forgetfulness of self. and his cage selzinng of every possible opportunit to preach the Lord Jesus.

MT. Hughes His Own Boss.

While MT. Hughes was still in the west there was a growing impression in the of the country was not arousing great enthusiasm had been anticipated After his speech of acceptance says the St. Louis Globe eDemocrat. MT. Hughes confined his attention to his immediate work. Belief in certain myths about him had been carefully fostered. He had to dispel these. He did his 14OOO-mile tour. Correspondents of such papers the New York Times editoriay supporting MT. Wilson, admit that he convinced his hearers everywhere that he was a red-blooded man. capable intellectually honest coura and bent establishing efficiency in public service. When he said he would veto extravagant appropriations it was not taken idle campaign promise. People knew he meant every word of it. Some remembered that he had vetoed items amount ing to $5,000,000 the last year he was governor of New York and that he had disapproved of over 200 bills that were wrong in principle deficient respects When he said he would the whole peo- ple his hearers believed him. They knew that he had never been bossed, that he had never swapped patronage for support of his measures and that he was not under obligations any machine, individual set of individuals for his nomination He concluded his tour in Maine and the election last Monday showed what Maine voters thought of Hughes after seeing and hearing him. They saw that he was every inch and not weathervane, shifted by every Vagrant breeze. They knew that whatever gency might arise he could be trusted to do what was right. without giving a thought the effect his personal fortunes.
 MT Hughes however is political novice. He reserved the detailed discussion recent legislation until congress adjourned and president had set his seal upon it. He already shown the fimsy character of of it and iniquitous principles of other parts of it. He will not all his ammu- milton at once however for interest until November. On subject he remained dis creety reticent, with high purpose expects to be elected president and to have deal with our trou- bles with certain European belligerents. He wants to be able to do this without any handicap of preju- dice, and the opposition, which would make political capital out of anything under heaven, cannot goad him into saying anything that might cause any coun- try to look upon him its enemy He is running president.

STEWART TELLS CLUB
 ALL ABOUT BICYCLES

Bicycles, from the oldenest to the 1916 models were explained by J. NJ. Stewart to the Rotarians yesterday at luncheon. Stewards service talk was illustrated in a novel way
 As an example of what a bike of the current year is. he had one of the latest models set up in the hall at the Rose Tree. To show the development from the original crude types, he showed charcoal cartoons, made by Bob Boardman, of the Y. M. c. A. His talk was very interesting to the busi- ness men, who had come to take bi- cycles as a matter of course, and not as a commodity that runs into the millions.
