The body of John p. A. Hughes,
who was killed in France in 1918,
near Brest, is expected to arrive at
Hoboken this morning, and will be
re-interred. next week as soon as ar
rangements can be made. 1t is hoped
to have the funeral as impressive as
any of those yet held. Delaware Post,
American Legion, will be in charge,
and invites the members of other
posts and ex-service mems clubs to
participate in the services.
Hughes, who was a very popular
young man, and lived in the western

fort will be made 10 have them act
in that capacity at his re-interment.

At its lest meeting, Delaware Post,
No. l. favored the placing of all Della
wares disabled ex-service men at one
hospital. where they could be attend
ed by those who have their welfare az
heart. The hospital would either be
one of the local sanatoriums or one
erected by the government and the
state. There are a number of dis
abled Delaware men who are scattered
all over the land. 1t would be a splen-
did idea to have them all located III

PLEDGE THAT SHOULD

Christian Endeavorers Remind

Have Taken.

Tho Christian Endeavor topic for
this week. Points In the Pledge We
Arc LIKELY to Neglect" Luke 9: 57-62,
is discussed by Everett II. Borton, as
follows.
voluntary. No one forces us 60 take
| 1t, but when taken. 1t should be
sacred AS long as We are active MEM
bers. If one has a tendency to lie in
bed all day, 1t is surely n good thing
to take pledge to get up I'm the
morning and do ones work. The
Christian Endcavor pledge imposes
no new duty; it makes definite old
ones. As the beginning of "a new year
is before us. 1t Is fitting to renew our
pledge and SO to revive In our minds
the old duties that are before MS as
Endeavorers. As the keynote of the
pledge is love 20 Christ and loyalty
to His Church, every believing Chris
tian can take the pledge and still
not tie ones self down to the doing Of
larduous tasks. The pledge merely
puts before us In concrete form what
we can and should do for the strength
ening of our Christian lives.
Trusting" That is often forgot

ficult, surely we forget that It is 10
be kept ''in His strength Then we
forget the name of Christ. lie is Lord
! He has all power in Heaven and in
earth. If we remember that we should

strenuous. Yet IL should be so. He
can cooperate with our effort, but
not with our idleness.
Perhaps the most neglected clause
OF the pledge deals with daily Bible
reading. No miss so much when VIC
neglect that Book In doing so we
starve our souls. Daily prayer is an
other point in the pledge which, ii
observed, can only bring gain TO tho
Endeayorer.
And i'm the pledge we promise to dc
our part at all times. Are we not al
prone to let someone else do our part
or TO find excuses for our failure?
