customs. They're old and they're good
and if we should change them every
one would be so confused. Just think
of the fussing and fuming and con-
fusion there would be. They would
see a mandarin duck with his gay
plumage and they would think he was
two years old and if he was not two
years old and had them everyone
would be terribly mixed up.
"We must follow the mandarin duck
ways as they've been for years and
years, and the dear old mandarin
duck ancestors, or grandmothers and
grandfathers and great-grandmothers
and great-grandfathers wouldn't have
started such customs If they weren't
right.
"You see, little duckling. we come
from China and Japan. Those are the
countries i'm which the Mandarin
ducks live. They have always been
called the mandarin ducks too-that
Is our family name.
Snow the colors of mandarin
duck are very fine. There is touch
of green to the top of the head. there
are reddish brown and green colors to
be seen in the back and about the body
as well as blue and all other colors
fancy At least don't know the names
of all the colors. But we have most
of them!
"Under,eath we care for white. nice
and simple and pretty. and white
makes a nice contrast in the front Of
our costumes to the gay goats and
hats we wear!
"And when l speak of the coats and
hats we wear mean the gay feathers
on our backs and heads. Now take
our neighbors in the zoo-the Aus
tralian stubble quail. They're brown
and they've speckled feathers.
They're safe here. for in the coun-
try they come from they are often
sought after by men with guns. They
belong to small-sized family. But
while they're all right in their way
how dull they are compared to us!
"We're SO gay and bright with our
plumage. Everyone wants to look at
us. And my little duckling you must
be patient. For colors such as we
have can't come at once. We must
be patient when ahead of us there is
such glory. If we only were going to
have speckled brown coats it would
seem absurd to wait for them, but It
doesn't seem absurd for us to wait
for such beautiful feathers does it?'
NO." said the little duckling, "for
beautiful and glorious plumage is we'll
worth waiting for"
''That is the right idea," said Moth
er Mandarin, land it is the same idea
as people have who are willing to
wait and be patient for success and
such things. If they can't get it in a
hurry they won't give up at once, but
they'd wait until they do get it
they'll wait and work.
"And so will we wait for our plum.
age. And while we don't have to work
we won't get discouraged and behave
badly but will wait with the righ'
kind of spirit. eh. my little duck

You're right. Mother Mandarin" !"
said the little duckling. "The glorious
plumage of mandarin duck is worth

THE DEATH RECORD.
REV. JOHN CALVIN ELY. DID.

The following tribute to the memory
of the late DIR. John Calvin Ely, DID,
is taken from a recent issue of the
Presbyterian Herald and published in
The Republican by request of one of
DR.. Ely's parishioners in Oakland:
Zone of Gods most untiring serv-
ants has gone home, after forty-four
years of arduous work in the gospel
ministry. After the funeral at Oak.
land, Nd, DR. Ely's body was brought
to Washington, Pa, where services
were conducted at the home of his
nephew, Dr. A. E. Thompson, in the
presence of many of his old friends,
college classmates, boyhood acquaint
ances and relatives Rev. w. E. Stem
mons, ID, of the First Presbyterian
church, assisted by the deceased's
cousin, Rev. James B. Ely, DID, of
Akron, O., was in charge of the serv-
ices. DR.. Ely was twice married, first
in 1881 to Miss Anna Duff, of Pitts
burgh, who lived but short time, and
in 1887 to Miss Flora A. Brooks. of
Columbus, O., who survives him. To
them two sons were born, Rev. John
c. Ely, Jr, who died in the late war,
and Captain Albert E. Ely, of Glas-
gov, Ky. Two small grandsons,
Brooks and Warner Ely, live with
their widowed mother in Pittsburgh.
DIR. Ely was consistent minister
from beginning to end. His was
steady, growing ministry, ever fasten-
ing the vital and fundamental truths
upon the hearts and minds of an ever
growing host of friends, with whom
he came in contact in his various fields
and offices of activity.
"Men knew him as a true man: chill
dren loved him as happy and gener-
Gus friend; sinners, hearing his mes
sages of Gods Word, regarded him as
faithful preacher Of the Word of God;
the sick were strengthened by his
presence and prayers; the lonely were
comforted and the tempted were made
strong; the aged felt their lives quick
ened in his presence, and the poor felt
themselves richer by his touch and
counsel.
"His love and interests were world
wide in their scope and most tender in
their application to local needs. For
him to live was truly Christ and to die
was gain. The multitudes who knew
him and were blessed of God through
him will only mourn in the glad hope
of the grand reunion beyond the
grave. Many will join in sympathy
and prayer for one another, and es-
pecially the bereaved wife, son, daugh-
tiers and grandchildren, who feel the
loss most keenly. His gain will as
suage their grief and all shall look
for him again, with Christ at His COM
ing, and remain in the faith and COM
fort of the glorious appearing of the
great God and our Savior Jesus
Christ" ]. B. ELY.

USE OF MONEY
IN ELECTIONS
Practice of Spending Large
Sums Condemned by Re-
pubIicans and Democrats.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 29.-Use of huge
sums Of money to win congressional cleo
tions was condemned by Republican and
Democratic reports on the Ford New
berry election contest, submitted to the
Senate today by the special committee
investigating the case.
Ousting of Senator Newberry, Michi-
gan, on the grounds that his credentials
are stained with fraud and tainted by
Illegal expenditures was demanded by
the Democrats on the committee.
Although admitting that S195,000 was
spent in the Newberry campaign the Re
publican report denies the charges OF
Illegal use of money and says the Michi-
gan Senator did not have direct knOwl-
edge this large amount was being raised.
Newberry should be allowed to remain
in the Senate, the Republican majority
report says.
Three reports-one Republican and
two Democratic-were submitted, but
rome recommends the seating Of Ford.
The reports are certain to cause a
spectacular political battle when action
is asked in the Senate and indications
are the Democrats hope to make a big
issue for the next campaign out Of the
case.
The Republican majority report sub
mitted by Senator Spencer, Missouri, al
though condemning the use OF big sums
in Congressional campaigns. justified the
expenditure OF s1e5, 600, admitted by New
berry's managers, on the ground that
Newb9rry practically was unknown in
Michigan while Ford's name was a house
hold word.
Newberry was charged with conspiracy
to violate the Michigan law, which lin
its the expenditures of Senatorial can
didates to $3.50, in the two minority
reports. one signed by Senator Pome-
rene (Ohiol and King (Utah) and the
other by Ashurst (Arlzona)
Whether Newberry had knowledge of
the financial management of his campaign
was holly contested in the two reports.
