arranged for the officers and their
partners, the young miss who has
been chosen for the attention OF one
of the handsome young men has good
reason to feel proud. Charles Nor
earty and Leonard Burke have charge
of arrangements.
This afternoon at the home Of Mrs.
James c. Wrath sixty women gath
cred for benefit card party. The
proceeds will be used to buy materi-
ais for use in making hospital sup

There is not that thing In the world
If more grave and urgent Importance,
throughout the life Of man, than -
discipline. What need I instance7 He
that hath read with judgment OF ma
lions and commonwealth. of cities
and camps, of peace and war, sea and
land. will readily agree that the -four
ishing and decaying Of all civil socle-
ties, all the movements and turnings
Of human occasions, are moved to and
fro as on the axle Of discipline. SO
that whatsoever power and sway IN
mortal things weaker men have attrib-
uted to fortune, burst with more
confidence ascribe either to the vigor
or the slackness Of discipline. And
certainly discipline is not only the re-
moyal Of disorder . but the very
visible shape and Image of virtue ;
whereby she Is not only seen In
the regular gestures and motions OF
her heavenly PAGES as she walks, but
also makes the harmony of her voice
audible to mortal ears.-Milton.
