The crowded life Of a boy who at
the age Of twelve could neither read
nor write and was placed in a special
school for backward boys was told
by Councillor Black at a meeting Of
the Brighton (Eng.) Education COM

rine tender, transferred to the Glory,
and went through the fighting at Cal

service throughout the war, and is
Just nineteen now. Councillor Black

L'entente cordiale as a phrase was

Louis Philippe was king of France
and Queen Victoria was queen of Eng

cherished an illusory hope of strength

entente. the now discredited principle
of the balance Of power in Europe.
Queen Victoria was induced. by way
Of oiling the newly devised machinery,
to pay a six days visit to the French

p%erience drew from her the naive COM

THE PEOPLES FORUM
GRATITUDE OF soLDIER-BoY

o the Editor of the Tclegrdbh:
Miss st. Peter of 1919 n. Penn is
IN receipt of a letter from a soldier
boy, named but unknown, belonging
TO a detachment of the Aviation Sig
nal Corps stationed at Camp Han
cock. During the fall of last year
MISS st. Peter in a spirit of kindly
feellng for the boys who are making
so brave sacrifice, knitted sweat
ers with the intention of relieving
somewhat the austerities to which
they are exposed in camp. The eX-
preston of gratitude now from the
lucky one more than compensates
her, we feel sure. for the many hours
spent in the laborious task. The
tone of the letter leads us to suppose
that were it not for Miss st. Peters
thoughtfulness some one would have
been neglected-this of course is
inevitable where hundreds of thou
sands of men have to bestaken care
OF. 1t furnishes an added incentive
to us not to abate any effort to make
the boys as comfortable as possible
The letter bears with it the assur-
ance that there is no missmanage-
ment-the authorities see to that
Our every little bit registers to the
benefit of our boys and our boys are
decidedly grateful.

LONGER PASTORATES

! o the Edit0r OF the Telegraph:
One of the advance steps taken
by the United Brethren Church dur
ing the last twenty-five years, is the
longer pastorates. In the early his
tory of the denomination the GUS
tom of sending pastors for a term
of only three years prevailed. The
change to longer pastorates has re-
suited in the building up of strong
er churches and enabling the pas
tors to bring in better financial re-
ports from their respective fields of
labor.
Especially is this advance move
ment noticeable within the bounds of
East Pennsylvania Conference.
which includes all the United Breth-
rem churches in this territory. At
the head of this list stood the name
of the late Rev. DR.. d. d. Lowery,
of Harrisburg, who served nearly
twenty-five years as conference sup
erintendent BY his aggressive lead
ership he was instrumental in bring
ing the conference up to a high
standard in every respect.
Some of the pastors whose names
appear at the head of this list are
the Rev. DR.. j. A. Lyter, of Harris
purg, who Is serving his eighteenth
year; the Rev. II. E. Miller. of T,eh-
anon, his fourteenth year; the Rev.
IL. M. Miller, of Penbrook, his elev-
enth year; the Revs. G.. d. Batdorf.
OIL Lancaster, $. Il. Rupp, of Harris
burg, and o. T. Ehrhart, of Leba-
non, their seventh years.
All of the Bishops of the demonia-
tlon favor this advance step. and do
not hesitate in appointing the min
lsters without any respect to the
nuinper Oh years they have served
on the same field of labor.
o. G. z
