The Church. and the Community.

There two kinds of church work, two ideals of religion. One of these is that religion is mater of doctrine; the other is that religion is matter of service. One kind of work seeks to divide people, to classify them and set them off into separate groups. The other kind of work seems to bring them together to have them join in work for the good of all The religion of separation is based upon the con- viction that 1 am right and ytu are wrong. The religion of union is based upon recognition of the fact that neither of us is as good as he needs to be, but that by helping each other we can make ourselves and other people better The one believes that it is the duty of the church simply to prepare men for a Kingdom of God in another life and another world the other feels the duty of helping the kingdom to come here on earth.
 We are not saying that matters of indi- vidual belief of no importance, or that a man needs to give up his convictions. But the man who holds in his own heart to his own creed, is by that very fact, if he is reasonable man, bound to concede the same right of fixed individual belief to the man who may disagree with him; and by the same rule, he should also be bound not to permit his individual belief to with the church life and social life of the community.
 We have always had in most of the coun- try and small town churches too much stress laid upon beliefs and too little on deeds; too much interest in church salvation and not enough interest in the welfare and salvation of the eommunity-too much selfishness and not enough real, broad brotherliness
 It should be the business of a church in to save and help elevate to a higher plane the entire community, not just a few in- dvIdual people of the community
 The church that lives in open antagonism to some other church of the community. and that makes no effort to put an end to neighbor- hood quarrels and dissentions among the peo- pie of the community is falling far short of full filling it's real mission, and it cannot square it. self with God and humanity by merely holding a so-ealled revival meeting.
 If there isn't anything more to religion than just merely going to church and declaring your belief in certain creeds and doctrines. re- llglon IS mighty shallow thing.

Speaking about that levee Newport wants but hsan't got. Nobody has said word about it, yet not a citizen of Newport but is thinking so hard about 1t that his thoughts are almost au- dible Everytime the river goes on a rampage we want leVee, but when it behaves itself we don't need levee, and there you are.-New- port Independent
 In other words you are like the fellow who lived in house with badly decayed roof on it-when the weather was fair he had as good roof as anybody, and when it raned, it was too blamed wet to fix the roof

THE SHIP OF STATE
LONGFEILOW

Thou, too, sail on, o Ship of State Sail on, o Union, strong and great! Humanity, with all it's fears, With all the hope of future years, Is hanging breathless on thy feet We know what Master laid thy keel What workman wrought thy ribs of steel, Who made each mast and sail and rope. What anvil rang, what anvils beat, In what forge and what heat. Were shaped the anchors of thy hope! Fear not each sudden sound and shock Ills of the wave, and not the rock; lis but the Tapping of the sail, And not rent made by the gale! In spite of rock and tempests' roar, In spite of false light on the shore. Sail on nor fear to breast the sea! Our hearts, our hopes, are all with thee: Our hearts, our hopes, our prayers. our tears Our faith triumphant Der our fears. Are with thee,-are all with thee.
