Bible Greatest Book.

"The greatest and most wonderful
book of all books in the world is the
Bible, but alas few people ever stop
to think what it cost William Tyn-
dale to give the English speaking
world its Bible II cost him life
of poverty wretchedness and social
.ostracism. 1t sent him into exile,
and drove him wanderer from city
to city and land to land; placed him
in prison often and finally burned
him at the stake. What the Bible
has done for the English speaking
race no man can ever begin to know.
It saved the English language to the
world. It made nation out of the
people and made the England of to-
day with its democracy and civiliza-
tion and so saved the world from
Prussianism. 1t gave the world Oil
yer Cromwell and his Pilgrims and
so ii gave to the world Plymouth
Rock and the Pilgrim fathers who
made America 1t brought our fore
fathers to the Revolution, and mad
us the United States of America, and
who can tell what that means to the
world? We are therefore, at the part
ing of the ways and are faced with
the necessity of making a choice be-
tween those things which the cloak
stands for and those which the books
stand for.
Do Not Despse Cloak.
'Do not despise the things of the
cloak. They are very necessary as
a part of life. Mankind owes no lit

Rev. J. D. Sater Shows Mankind Is
Ever Called upoR.to Choose Be-
tween Cloak and Book; Refers
to Trials of Paul.
BIBLE rs GREATEST OF
ALL BOOKS, SAYS PASTOR
Advises Not to Despise Cloak; Is
Necessity; Refers to Words of
Christ Lay Up for Yourself
Treasures In Heaven"

Showing that mankind is ever call
which is represented by the cloak
and that which is represented by the
book, Rev J. D. Salter chose for his
sermon subject Sunday morning at
the Methodist church, "The Supreme
Choice
The speaker said in part:
THE supreme choice mankind has
always been confronted with is the
choice between that which is repre-
sented by the cloak and that which
is represented by the book, On the
one hand is that which gives bodily
comfort, bodily ease and bodily vel.
fare. On the other hand is that
which enriches the mind, enlarges
the soul and gives man mastery o.
matter, and the way in which this
supreme test is decided does always
determine mans worth, both in him
self and to his felowmen.
'lf ever a man had a good excuse
for choosing a cloak instead of
book it was Paul at the time he
wrote the words of the text. He
was near to the end of his life and
knew it for in this same letter he
wrote also The time of my depar-
ture is at hand. | am ready to be
offered up.
Moreover he was in a Roman pri-
son and it was winter The prison
was open to the weather and with
inadequate heat. The prisoner was
fastened to the wall with a chain.
There was neither bed nor bedding.
Damp. cold and in need of clothes,
always hungry, Paul might very well
have esteemed a cloak as a greater
necessity than a book. Most men
would have. but most men have not
been what Paul was and the cause
lies Just here Early in life he chose
between cloak and book. The world
owes an unpayable debt to that COM
paratively small number Of the race
who have despised the things of the
body in order to become rich in the
things of the mind and soul. Such
have been most of our poets. Who
can read the matchless words of Ro
bert Burns without an enlargement
of soul, but who can escape the
shame that such a man should have
to live, labor and die in wretched

The Philadelphia Fourth of July
celebration of 1777 was a public dem
onstration, planned in advance. For.
tunately we have a short contemporary
account of what took place. The
Pennsylvania Gazette, published week
ly by John Dunlap, tells in its issue
of July 8, 1777, of this first Of a long
line of Independence day celebrations,
Here is the full account:
'Friday, the fourth instant, being
the anniversary of the independence
of America, was celebrated in this
city with demonstrations of Joy and
festivity.
about noon, all the armed ships
and galleys in the river We're drawn
up before the city, dressed in the gay
est manner, with the colors of the
United States and streamers displayed.
At o'clock the yards being properly
manned, they began the celebration
Of the day by a discharge of thirteen
cannon from each of the galleys in
honor Of the thirteen United States
"In the afternoon an elegant dinner
was prepared for congress, to which
were invited the president and su-
preme executive council and speaker
of the assembly of this state, the gen.
eral officers and colonies of the army
and the members of the several con-
tinental boards who were in town.
1.-THE Hessian band Of music taken
in Trenton the twenty-sixth of De
cember last attended and heightened
the festivity with some fine perform
ances suited to the joyous occasion,
while a corps of British deserters
taken into the service of the Cont
nent by the State of Georgia, being
drawn up before the door, filled up
the intervals with feux de joie.
"After dinner a number of toasts
were drunk, all breathing indepeud-
ence and a genuine love of liberty and
commemorative the memories of those
brave and worthy patriots who gal
lantly exposed their lives and fell glori-
ously in defense of freedom and the
righteous cause of their country.
Each toast was followed by a dis
charge of artillery and small arms
and suitable piece of music by the
Hessian band. The glorious Fourth
of July was reiterated three times,
accompanied with triple discharges of
cannon and small arms.
Toward evening several troops of
horse and corps of artillery and a
brigade of North Carolina forces which
was in town on its way to join the
grand army were drawn up in Sec
Ond street and reviewed by congress
and the general officers.
''The evening was closed with the
ringing of bells and at night there
was grand exhibition OF. fireworks,
which began and concluded with thir-
teen rockets on the common, and the
city was beautifully illuminated.
Everything was conducted with the
greatest order and decOrum and the
face Of Joy and gladness was uni
versal.
s'Thus may the Fourth of July, that
glorious and ever-memOrable day, be
celebrated through America by the
hosts of freedom from age to age till
time shall be no more. Amen and
amen"

all ready to vote on 1t. June 10, con-
gress postponed final consideration for
3 weeks. June IL, congress appointed
a committee of five to draw up the
Declaration of Independence. Lee
would naturally have been made chair
man, but he had been called home by
the illness of his wife. Thomas Jeffer-
son of Virginia was made chairman
and his colleagues were John Adams
Of Massachusetts, Benjamin Franklin
of Pennsylvania, Roger Sherman of
Connecticut and Robert L. Livingston
of New York. The committee in
structed Jefferson to write out draft
of the Declaration. Jefferson did so.
The committee made some changes
and Jefferson then made a clean copy.
Congress reassembled July 1, and the
Lee resolution was passed July ..
How this action was then regarded is
shown by John Adams letter to his
wife, in which he said:
'The second day of July, 1776, will
be the most memorable epoch in the
history of America. I am apt to be-
lieve that it will be celebrated by sue
ceedIng generation as the great ami
versary festival. It ought to be COM
memOrated as the day of deliverence
by solemn acts of devotion to God
Almighty. 1t ought to be solemnized
with pomp and parade, with shows,
games, sports, bells, bonfires, and IL
Elimination from one end of this con-
tinent to the other, from this time
forward forevermore."
Jefferson then presented the report
of the Declaration committee, the docu-
ment now known as the Declaration
of Independence. 1t was adopted the
afternoon of July 4. John Hancock,
as president of the congress, affixed
his signature. Charles Thompson
cOuntersigned as secretary. 1t was
then printed and sent off to the sew
eral colonies. July IS, the clerk was
instructed to prepare the document for
signatures. Properly engrossed, it was
signed by all who were present-5O
members. Others signed in Septem-
Der and one member, Colonel Mexican,
did not sign until 1881. Seven men,
bers, for one reason or another, never
did sign it.
Pennsylvania, being the first colony
to receive its Declaration of Inde-
pendence, was the first formally to
make public the action of congress.
July 8, a general election day in Penn
sylvania, was chosen as the time. A
crowd Of about 1000 gathered near
the platform erected by the Philosoph-
ical society seven years before
from which RittenhOuse observed the
transit Of Venus. Mounted upon this,
