Unitarianism.

These are days when it is apparent
that interest in Religion is on the in
crease. From across the seas where
European nations are engaged in des-
perate warfare, come the reports of the
quickening of vital religious thought
and feeling. In this country the vari-
Gus denominations are carrying on
campaigns Of publicity. Revivals are
being held, and in every way possible
the truths and practice of the various
branches of the Christian church are
being proclaimed to meet the demands
Of the hour. 1t is all good work and
there Is need that it should be done.
1t is a pity that there must be so
many sects. SO many branches of the
Christian church. but if their efforts,
combined or not, will lead our great
Nation into the paths of righteousness
and good will. then no one should COM
plain. Let each church then set forth
its rule of faith and order, its affirma-
tons respecting Religion, and let the
worshippers choose the way they will
follow. This Is no time for men to
quarrel about Religion. But it is a
time for everyone to support some
church, to become Christian, or g.
better Christian, by the route which
most appeals to mind and heart.
With this in mind, special sermons
will be preached in the Unitarian
church from time to time during the
winter months, setting forth the great
aff1rmations of its faith. and of Chris
tianity, as laugh thy Unitarian lead
ers. The aim of the course is simply
to show what Unitarians believe to the
end that those who wish to know and
appraise its faith may hear and weigh
the evidence-not to criticise other
faiths. If you wish to know about
Unitarianism, you are cordially invited
to attend the church where services
are held Sundays at 1890 A. M.
If the faith you now believe in, salts
fies you. stick to it, make it part Of
your life. If it does not, possibly the
simple. reasonable faith of Unitarian
ism may be just what you need. and
these special sermons may help Won.
But above all, have some church home.
and go to 1t.

MUNICIPAL COURT.
Woman Gets 80 Days Suspended SEN
tence on Intoxication Charge.

The only business before the NUM-
cipal court Friday morning was that
of Mrs. Clara Boucher. whom the
police arrested Thursday afternoon
crazed from the use of intoxicating
liquor. The woman has been arrested
several times before and as had been
the case on previous occasions she
gave the police a lively time before she
submitted to capture. When arraigned
before the court she claimed that she
was not intoxicated at the time OF her
arrest but the evidence was over
whelmingly against her and she was
found guilty. She was given SEN
tence of 30 days in jail but as she had
infant three months old sentence was
suspended. She was admonished how
ever that she must leave liquor alone
or that the infant would be taken from
her.
