near the foot of the Blue Ridge

Civil War a costly tunnel, for nearly
mile, was cut through the noun

tied In 1850 by German colony

a Beautiful Poem.

Inc autnOr or the following poem,
Rev. j. T.. Bushnell, D. D., attended
the sessions of the Lutheran Synod
in Walhalls, last week. His visit was
a source of much pleasure to all who
met him. The poem was handed us
by friend to whom he gave it. We
are glad to publish it because of the
fine sentiments so we'll expressed, and
because it will appeal especially to a
large number Of our readers who are
adherents OF this faith.
The Reformation Church.
What! leave the Reformation Church,
Our fathers and our own!
Desert, betray and wound the breast
On which our strength has grown?
No! we may leave our land and
tongue,
Those near and dear we've known,
BUT not the Reformation Church,
Our fathers and our own.
What! leave the Reformation Church,
Our glory and our pride?
Forsake the faith that Jesus taught
There is no truth beside!
No! on this Rock 'gainst every shock
Though proselytes assail,
Well stand secure, with promise
sure,
They never shall prevail
Our dear old Reformation Church!
We love her ancient name;
And God forbid that one Of us
Should ever do her shame.
The mother OF true Protcstants.
4 mothers love has shown;
Nor can We now deny her cause,
A strangers claim to own
Our own dear Reformation Church!
We've heard the tales of blood,
OF those who loved thee to their
death,
The true, the wise and good;
The faith of Augsburg they have
kept,
They burned, and bled, and died,
And shall their children's children
Be traitors at her side?
O, dear old Reformation Church,!
The love cannot grow cold,
That coursed like streams Of living
light,
In martyrs veins of old;
That cruel Thirty years of war,
Mid persecution's flame,
Has warmed the blood in every heart,
foi lioSS VI LuIucIdu name.
We love our Reformation Church,
For she reveres her Lord;
She teaches naught, confesses naught,
But from the written Word;
Her voice Is like our Saviour's voice,
Compassionate and kind,
She teaches us the Gospel pure
Thus we salvation find.
We love our Reformation Church,
Because she leads us on
TO Heaven and God-the Church
above,
Where Christ our Lord hath gone:
We follow In the steps Of Him,
The Life, the Truth. the Way,
The Morning Star that lights the
path
From darkness unto day.
Then with our Luther, bold and true,
And loyal to each VOW,
Well stand with Christ and for His
Church,
AS God doth call ns now;
In protest strong, 'gainst every
wrong,
Proclaim His truth alone
This faith shall still be dear to us,
Our fathers and our own.

 VILLAS CLASS
Lecturer Collins Declares COnstitutiOnalist Chief Is Not Supported By All MeXicans; Condemns Di- vOrce As Worst Evil

"CarranZa is a bigger bandit than Villa" declared Peter w. Collins eminent lecturer who is touring the country under the auspices of the Knights of Columbus, yesterday.
 Mr Collins who is great advocate of harmony and planes all the evils in the world to lack of it. was re- gently in Jaurez and says that he voices the opinion of the people of the border when he says the United States made mistake when it recOg nized CarranZa.
 "Carranza," they say. "Is supposedly while in reality he is playing politics. 1 find that the decent Mexicans will not stand for certain conditions that CarranZa advocates, after Villa has been cleaned up
 MT. Collins did not deny his infer ence was that Carranza should receive the same treatment from this country.
 He disagrees with the head of the constitutional government of Mexico on many things, primarily on divorce, one of the reforms introduced by Car ranZa in his own country.
 One of the most far reaching evils in the world today is divorce. While there are other wrongs that seem more terrible they come only at intervals while divorce is continuous. It is the cancer of America today"
 Mir Collins believes that legal serar- atiOn is disintegrating society. It is because men and women have not learned to look upon marriage as any thing but a bargain and if all goes well, very good, if not. there is the open door.
 There are no two people in the world who are compatible at all times. If the door of escape were not wide open, however, there would be fewer differences" and more sue cessful marriages. Overcoming oh stacles develops character: fOrebear- ance, to a certain extent. is part of marriage 'I can understand how in rare instances a condition might exist justifying legal separation but not a divorce.'

Phoenix ranks with Dayton as an example of managed cities" accord ing to Nathan C. Redwood. associate editor of Engineering News. foremos. technical journal of America. who is visiting the Salt River valley. Many cities. especially those of Texas, are progressing under the commission form of government, but examples of the managerial form are very rare yet. de- clared the writer.
 While we don't devote ourselves much to the examination of cities. and while I came here to study the irriga- ton system, I was compelled to look into the method of governing Phoenix, said ROCkwQod. Most city managers are or have been engineers, and their methods of managing are those of en- gineers. Therefore. we are interested"
