METHODISTS RALLY
FOR PREACHERS FUND
Good Progress Made in Raising $500,
900 in Vermont to Help Retired
Clergymen.

The campaign to raise 500 600 for
the retired preachers fund Of the Ven
mont conference Of the Methodist EplS
copal church, under the leadership Of
the field secretary, Rev. 4. W. Sharp,
is bearing fruit to the satisfaction OF
the commission, of which Judge Frank
Plumlev OF Northtield IS the president.
The educational feature Of the cam
paign was in operation from June, and
the intensive feature began on Sept.
70 and continued to Dee l. During
the first period more than 100000
pieces Of literature and personal let
tiers were sent out from the office. Of
this number there were 10000 copies
Of the Veteran Preacher, Vermont edi-
ton, i magazine Of much interest. civ
ing the pictures Of all the bishops and
several of the old ministers, with az
ticles from many Of the prominent lay
men and MINISTERS OF the state.
The second period consisted Of groun
meetings and personal canvassing.
Twenty Vermont men and four men
from Chicago were employed in the
personal canvassing.
Mr.. Sharp had his office IN Montpel-
Ter during the intensive campaign, but
moved back to BrattleDOf0 one wee X
ago. Returns have been coming to the
office every day in the form Of pledges
and cash. The receipts for yesterday
alone were $3,6S9.50.
St. .Johnsburv and st. Iohnsbury
Center were the first two churches of
the conference to come over at 200
per cent Of the pastors salary, includ-
ing house rent St. j ohnshury church,
with heavy debt on their new 49,
900 edifice, gave $500, which was
800 more than their apportionment.
Waterbury was the next to come over
with 42,445, or $42 more than their
200 per cent line, with several pledges
vet to be received. South Royalton
| comes next nearest Of reaching the
goal, and it is expected this church will
put their program over the top IN a
| few days The fact that this has been
| accomplished in the midst of the tra
| nendous drives for Liberty loans, Red
! Cross and Y. NJ. c. A. war fund, shows
Ithat Vermont is true to ner interests
both at home and abroad.

Shirt Company Begins Operations

The Webster Shirt Co. moved into
its new and commodious shop Monday
and began operations Tuesday after
noon. They are manufacturers of high
grade shirts, soft collars and pajamas,
which they are beginning to turn out.
They recently came here from Berlin,
\. Y. A scarcity Of operators in that
place caused them to look elsewhere
for a location, and after some nego-
tiating with one of the prominent bust
ness men of this place they decided to
locate here. They expect, when run
ming full handed, to employ eight or
10 women and girls. The people of
Williamsville welcome this small but
vigorous business concern and expect
to see it grow to larger proportions in
the near future.

The Earth's Surfacs.

The surface of the earth can Be
compared to the top of barrel OF
asphalt, hard and rigid through and
through. scanned and cracked on the
surface by the elements. For ten
miles in a straight line below the
surface the earth is probably dry
and hard, of rock substance. The
pressure of this substance upon the
heated center of the earth keeps it
from getting hotter than it is, Just
as you can keep water from boiling
by an appropriately suffice It pres
sure. The fact that there is steam
in volcanic eruptions is the leakage
Of the interior pressure OF heat In
the earth. The character of matter
in the center of the earth or its i'm
mediate environment must be some
thing like pumice stone-spongy,
porous, light-because when the
earth's interior matter Is melted In
the high temperatures that are
there it dissolves, and there is con-
siderable water in it that escapes
through volcanic craters in steam.

THE VOICE IN THE DARK.
4 Memory Of Plokett's Brigade and {
Night Attack.

Some years after the civil war Q
gathering of veterans Of both sides
was exchanging "reminiscences at
banquet given by the board of trade
Of New York, writes Mrs. La Sale
Corbell Pickett in Eppincott's.
The presiding officer was Colonel
J. J. Phillips of the Ninth Virginia
regiment, Pickett's division. He
was speaking Of night attacks and
recalled one in particular, not be-
cause Of its startling horrors, but
because of a peculiar circumstance,
almost resulting in the compulsory
disobedience of orders-the obey
Ing, as it were, Of q higher com.
mand than that of earth.
'The point of attack had been
carefully selected" said Colonel
Phillips, "the awaited dark night
had arrived, and my command was
to Are when General Pickett should
signal the order.
"There was that dread, indescrib
eble stiffness, that weird, ominous
sience, that always settles over
everything before fight. You felt
that nowhere in the universe was
there any voice or motion.
Suddenly the awesome silence
was broken by the sound of a deep.
full voice rolling over the black
void like the pillows of a great sea,
directly in line with our guns. Il
was singing the old hymn, Jesus,
Lover Of My Soul
II have heard that grand old
music many times in circumstances
which intensified its impressive
ness, but never had it seemed SO
solemn as when it broke the still
ness in which we waited for the or
der to fire. Just as it was given
there rang through the night the
words:
"Cover my defsnseless head
win tnc sndoO" oA my ~ihA'
Ready! Aiml Fire to the
left, boysp l said.
'"The guns we're shifted, the vol
ley that blazed out sgsrved aside,
and that defenseless head was Gov
ered' with the. shadow of his wing"
A Federal veteran who had been
listening looked up suddenly and
said:
81 remember that night, colonel
and that midnight attack which
carried off so many of my comrades
I was the singer"
There was a second Of silence
Then "Jesus, Lover of My Soul"
rang across that banquet board al

rung across the lines at Bermuda
