mission on Episcopal Prayer
Book Recommends
UNFAIR TO CLASS
THEM WITH INFIDELS

The Protestant Episcopal Church
will cease praying for the Jews. by
name, after next month. If the Spe-
cia Commission on the Revision OF
the Prayer Book has its way This
commission will make such a recon-
mendation at the tliennlal General
Convention OF that communion. which
opens in St, Louis October II and
continues the rest Of the month.
Tho uamo hody also viii recon-
mend that no more special PRAYERS.
as q part of the regular ritual. he
offered for the Turks. Aside from
nationalities. IL is proposed TO omit
specific petitions for "infdels and
hcretics.".
The reason the commission would
eliminate the Jews in the formal
prayers is because is feels IL is an
insult to Gods chosen people 70
classify them with 'infdcls and
heretics."
The cause of leaving out the
Turks is mainly because all down
trough the years this has caused
them TO be synonymous in the minds
( churchmen with MOhammedans.
The clause was inserted in the Book
If Common Prayer OF the Church of
ENGLAND at a time when the Turks
we're i'm control OF a large part Of
Europe and when Mohammedans and
christians were at strife.
The Protestant Episcopal Church
D tho United States adopted this
prayer along with many others from
tho Mother Church. II is felt tha
aow there is no more reason fol
,alling out the Turks by name than
.here is specifying Chinese. Japan
&C. Flipinos or even Americans
"The infidels and heretics" go out
the prayer. if the report of the
commission is accepted, not in the
least because the Episcopal Church
kinks they do not need praying for
hut simply because it does not feel
Jews and Turks should be classed
with unbelievers. It is noted that
the Jews worship Almighty God and
that there are now many Turkish
Christians.
Tradition says that when the
prayer was written what was meant
was not Turks but Mohammedans.
and that the insertion of Turk"
was because the words at that time
were almost Synonymous.
Tho prayer which is offensive 20
so many occurs in the second collect,
which is read on Good Friday.
In place OF Jews. Turks. infdels
and heretics." the special commits
sion will recommend: Have mercy
upon all who knew Thee not as re-
yealed in the gospel OF Thy Son.

W ashington Starr

On completing fifty continuous years iii the government service this afternoon, and having decided to retire from his position, Warren C. Bickford of the treasury depart ment was presented with a gold watch and chain, the gift of numerous friends.
 Mr Bickford was born in York county, Maine, May 2 lS45, and at the beginning of the civil war enlisted in the Sixteenth regiment, Maine volunteers. He was se- verely wounded at tke battle of Fredericks- burg, and because of these wounds was transferred for guard duty to the war de pertinent in this city. Bickford was on duty one night at the entrance of the war department when he heard footsteps ap- preaching the spot where the sandstone steps had been removed to permit new ones to be substituted. The man was close to the steep jump-off, and Bickford sang out Look out, old man, CT you'll break your dern neck
 The next morning Bickford was sum- moned before officials of the war depart ment and tcld that he had saved the life of Secretary Stanton of the war department, who, forgetting the steps had been removed, was just about to step into the opening. As a reward he was named as private mes senger, and later as a mounted messenger to carry telegrams received at the war de parment. For forty-seven years he has been in the division of printing and sta tionery of the treasury.

THE SWEETEST SONG

His battle song the warrior sings. Where banners proudly wave. Midst martialed hosts it grandly rings, A ballad for the brave. The sailor sings from shroud and spar A song that's wild and free, To please his mistress from afar, Who's waiting OCT the sea The lover all his love outpours In heart song to maid, To woo her like the troubadours, With moonlight serenade. The maiden sings, with tender tone. The notes that softly tell How close within her heart alone He shall forever dwell. The matchless queen of opera fills The heart and soul with song That with an inspiration thrills
 A great applauding throng. The choristers an anthem raise,
 In plaintive minor chord, A Christmas carol full of praise
 For Him, the risen Lord. But there's a song that always brings Dear memories to me. It is the song a woman sings
 The mothers lullaby. No sweeter song I'll want to hear, If the chance am given Some day to stand and listen where The angels sing in heaven.
