At the Federated church Sunday morning a special service was held for H. H. Osgood lodge, l. O. O. F.. the members attending in a body. Rev A. w. Burdon delivered the sermon. taking for his subject The Links That Bind His text was taken from the Nth chapter of I Sam, verses and 4. Rev. MT. Burdon said in part: F'rater- nalisG has it's blessing in the home and the community, and unless extreme care is taken its purpose and power will be defeated. F'raternaIisIn is ouIlded on esteem and respect The truth. The first link, friendship. of which the chief essential is generosity. This generosity is not the material kind but the kind that is spiritual and makes one willing to help and give moral support to the man who is liv- Ing his life away from the right pants Love is the second link and love is friendship outgrOWing friendship and hndlng an outlet in this higher duaI- lty called love. Love when broken uu into it's component parts will be found to be made of the nine essential eIa- ments, patience, kindness, generosity, humility, courtesy, unselfshness. good temper, guilelessness and sincerity Love thinketh no evil This brings us to the third link, which is truth. Truth IS the greatest of many virtues and is like the keystone of an arch the absence of which lets everything depending on it fall like a house of cards. So it is with our lives. the b. sence of truth leaves our chara cter a hollow shell. These three qualities are the fundamental principles of frater- nalisn.

tration at Washington was severely criti-
cized last night by Senator Henry Cabot
lodge in an address during which he an

| In my own opinion, he said, with the
exception of the administration OF Blu
chanan, there has been no administration
i IN power which has been so injurious to
the United States, both at home and
abroad, as that now in control at Wash
ington
After condemning the tariff and taxa
ton legislation enacted by a Democratic
congress, Senator Lodge turned TO the for
eign policies Of the administration He
said that the plans for national defense
suggested by President Wilson proved on
Iaraylsis to be partly shams and wholly in
adequate. Continuing, he said:
The responsibility for the conditions in
Mexico rests largely ON the government
Of the United States.
The result Of the Presidents war
against Gen. Huerta was the destruction
Iof the only government that offered any
prospect OF order or peace or responsible
lily. The murderers and bandits favored
by the administration in preference of
zen. Huerta, who was also murderer,
have been desolating the country and fight
ing among themselves ever since. Out of
this miserable tragedy. one thing com
gands our attention above all others
americans have been murdered in Mexico;
Isoldiers wearing the American uniform
have been shot on the soil of the United

Mexico We're entitled to orr protection
