feeble; our consciousness will be
kindled again and our Jewish youth
will be reinvigorated from Jewish
sources. Since it is to be Hebrew
university the question hardly arises
as to its language. By strange
error people have regarded Hebrew
as one of the dead languages, whilst
in fact it had never died off the
lips of mankind. True to many OF
us Jews it has become a secondary
language. But for thousands Of my
people, Hebrew is and always has
been the sacred tongue and in the
streets of Tel-Aviv, in the orchards
of Richon and Rehoboth, on the
farms of Hulda and Ben Sheman
it has already become the mother
tongue. Here in Palestine, amid
the babel of languages, Hebrew
stands out as the one language in
which every Jew can communicate
with every other Jew in spite of the
technical difficulties connected with
Hebrew instruction.
"It is unnecessary for me to dwell
upon these difficulties at this NOM
emit. We are alive to them. But
the experience of our Palestinian
schools has already shown to us
that these difficulties are surmount-
able. There are all points of detail
which have been carefully examined
and will be dealt with at the ap-
propriate time I have spoken OF
Hebrew university where the Ian
guage will be Hebrew just as French
is used at the Sarbonne or English
at Oxford. Naturally other Ian
guages, ancient and modern, will be
taught in their respective faculties.
Amongst these we may expect that
prominent attention will be given
to Arabic and other semitic Ian
guages. The Hebrew university,
though intended primarily for Jews
will, of course, give an afectionate
welcome to the members of every
race and every creed! MY house
is a house of prayer for all nations.
"Besides the usual schools and in
situations which go to form mod

branches of science which will be

of the stnte had TO appeal TO the legls-

Our community was shocked, Satur-
day last, December 20. TO learn Of the
death Of Elder w. Fl. Hardman, which
occurred at his home in this city.
While Elder Hardman had been in
failing health, his passing away was
not looked for so suddenly. He and
wife and daughter had only returned
from n holiday visit with his son. nj
Joplin, and had been nj home but a
dav or two when his summons came.
He was veteran Of the Civil War
having served in the Gath Ohio Infan.
try, and took his place in the ranks
at the battle Of Shiloh and Stone
river.
On coming out Of the army he en-
tered the theological university at
Lexington, Kentucky. and was lis first
graduate In 1867. Leaving that fhsti.
tuition in 1863, he at once entered the
ministry OF the Christian church, TAX
ing his first charge nj Carmi. Ills, and
Mount Vernon, Indiana. He was of
the pioneer class. and filled various
charges in Illinois, Iowa and Missouri.
Elder Hardman was in every sense
an earnest, jealous minister of the
gospel; he loved his Master and was
happy In serving Him. He went wher-
ever he felt duty called, and gave tho
best that was In him that he might
advance the cause Of the true and liv-
ing God. He was so simple; so kind.
" and unpretcntious. 40 earnest and
devoted that his people loved him for
his many Christian virtues.
For many years he had been q resi-
dent OF our county, living IN Oregon
IN recent years, but by reason Of ad-
vancing years and failing health. lie
had practically retired from his min
istcrial labors.
He was born October 90, 1874, at
Hagerstown, Pennsylvania, and died

There nrc two methods Of increasing
the production OF poultry products IN

number Of fowls kept on the fnrmi
second, by increasing the production

The second is the true. method OF m
crcasing poultry production unuer

production Of the flock the country
will not only have received the bene-
nj Of more food supplies but the farm.
