from Mrs. Moore: "A month ago

swollen and panied me night and day.

it freely to the sprained ankle. The
swelling was soon reduced and the
pain vanished. In q week could
walk as usual My experience has
convinced Inc that Mysterious Pain
Ease Is a truly wonderful remedy for
sprans."

GRANITE GOING
OUT OF FASHION
BECAUSE OF COST
Granite Manufacturers Seek to
Reduce Wages
OFFER NEW WAGE SCALE
Granite Business Of Vermont
Has Been Getting Steadily
Worse For Four Years.

Barre. Nov. 25.-~For the past fouI
years the granite business has been
Hat and getting flatter. Both employ
ers and employees have been waiting
hopefully that the business would
come back, but 1t hasn't,
There Is small amount OF monu
mental stone being cut but the orders
are SO small and few that the outlook
is discouraging. 1t has finally come
to the accepted fact that the trou-
Bile is that the cost Of granite has got
ten so high that possible customers go
without or buy someth ng else.
The granite manufacturers think
that the cost Of granite should be les
sened by decreasing wages. The gran
tie workers want the cost reduced by
lowering transportation charges and
saving in other ways. Meanwhile the
business has been fading away.
10 try to make progress and bring
showdown the manufacturers have
made a proposition to the granite
workers.
Maintaining that the Retail Monu-
mental dealers Of the country. the ar.
chitects, engineers and owners OF
buildings, have served notice on the
granite manufacturers that they eth.
or would not buy or would buy as
little granite as possible until such
time as management and labor costs
had been reduced from war levels. ;"

lowing proposals to be answered by

THANKSGIVING SERVICE
CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH
Union Gathering Of Baptists, Metho'
dists and consregationaIIsts-
Sermon by MIR. Towart.

The union Thanksgiving service at
the Second Congregational church
yesterday, In spite OF the storm, was
well attended. The choir OF the
church furnished special music, az.
pIopriate to the occasion, and Rev.
VIM. G. Towart delivered the ser.
mon.
Among other things he emphasized
the fact that our nation Is at the cross
roads in its influence among the ma
tions OF the world. If we deal unset
fishly. and hold to spiritual and NOR
al grounds, we can change the face
of the whole earth for good. But let
the sordid and material interests
dominate our policies, and, regardless
of any temporal prosperity, we shall
have missed the worlds greatest OPP
portunity and started ourselves on
the way to ruin. The speaker quoted
"a noted Japanese statesman to SAD
stantiate his argument.
The nation being at the parting
of OF the ways relative to material
and spiritual affairs as related to her
foreign policies, brings a crisis in the
life of the church, for the church Is
the only agency which viii lead IN
the direction of unselfishness and
brotherhood. The question at bot
tom then becomes one Of the readi-
ness of distinctly spiritually minded
people, as banded together in the
church to carry public opinion in fav-
or of the more philanthropic and
christian attitudes. PHILOSOPHERS,
education, and high wages, all good
in themselves, are powerless TO
achieve the high goal our nation
should reach. Personally deyout
prayer-life, knowledge of the Bible,
and intense church activities. are in
dispensible to the whole program.
