WASHINGTON DAY SERVICE

Services n the Methodist churci 'ast Sunday evening were in commen ,ration of the birth and life of Georgi
 Wilmington. The text chosen by Rev
 ?arter was from the book of Genesis A message had come to Abram urg' ing him to go out from his fathers house and seek . home in a land ye, unknown to him. As an incentive thii promise is given him: T will make o1 thee a great nation, and I will bless thee and make thy name great; and be thou . blessing"
 Rev. Carter called attention to the fact that in the history of nations h remote ages certain men stood ou, as great characters and around these central figures the histoy of the m. ton was witten. The people were only a background to enhance the great. ness of the central figure.
 There is one statement in the text often over looked, but is really . con. dition upon which the fulilment o1 the promise depends. The promi1ej ! will make thee . great nation. Tho condition is, be thou . blessing. ;
 The Hebrews referred with pride tc Abraham as the father of thsif na- sien. The blessing of his life was not limited to the Hebew people, but iz felt even today by those who sympa- thetically study the history of the pee pie of whom he was tho central fig ure. Abraham was . great man.
 We refer to George Washnigton as the father of his country. We often quote the phrase, "First in war, Arst in peace and first in tho hearts ot his countrymen." He, too, was . great man, but his greatness hinged ppon his being blessing to his people, Hi greatness is felt and appreciated now far moro than his own day fpd sener- atioh. His name l. soken with rev. srence even in far-on China q .hs awakens to new life. s.sro

Losing no time as to how they should get rid of the body. Burger suggested to his mistress tEat they cut it up. Clearing the dining,room table, they put Jo. bins body on it. and, whil.

 As soon as Burger returned they set to their ghastly task, witnessed only by little Madeleine. too mortified to say anything. That same night, at midnight. the three left their flat, each carrying bundle containing. one the headless body of the victim, the others on arm clch, and made for the nearest bridge where the remains were thrown into the river.

 A few weeks later the trunk was found some twelve miles out of Paris in the river, and the next day the arms appeared. II was not till eigh- teen months after that the murderers were found and. with them, the head and legs, for they led the police au. thortes to the spot where the latter had been buried.
 Burger, when asked about the crime, threw most of the blame on the woman and immediately denied her story that she had had nothing to do with the crime, being in an adjoining room while Burger cut up the body.

FUTURE WAR WILL
 BE BETWEEN WHITE
 AND YELLOW RACES

LONDON, Dee. l3. The dread picture of World war in which the yellow races of the East will strive for domination with the white people of the West was painted by the Bishop of Chelmsford recently in a sermon to the English Church Con gress at Birmingham.
 Do you know" he asked, that the whole of the Christian community in England. the Church and the Noncom- formist bodies together, gave in a year toward spiritual work what was less than would keep the British Army in the field for six hours?
 This country last year" he added, spent St.S00, 100000 in drinks. more , than $4OOOO0,OOO in tobacco and only l2,9OO,OO0 on foreign missions
 q am not a pessimist but in few years we shall have peril moving out from Asia, from China, from India and Japan. What is going to be the result God alone knows.
 The next war will be the yellow against the white races. Think of the last war and its horrorsl It will pale into insignificance before a war of color!
 There is nothing that can prevent such war except that the principles of Christianity be made 10 undcrlie in- ternational and national life. if the world does not give it's sons and daughters to the cause of the church, venture to predict your grandchil. dren will have to fight in this great World war of color
 "Only Christ can cement the ma. tions. The true solution" concluded the bishop. Ties, not at the Confer ence in Washington. or in the Coun- clls of London and Paris, but on Cal. vary"

BEFRIENDED MAN WHO MURDERED
 HIM LATER

PARIS Dec 13.-"He did not love his country but, on the contrary, was always full of praise for the Ger mans" was the only excuse EstelIr Jobin could find when together with her lover Charles Burger, she was brought before examining magistrates on the charge of murdering her hus- band and heldping to cut up the body, throwing parts of it into the river and burying the remainder in park out side Paris.
 The husband Ernest Jobjn, was em- ployed at the Grand Hotel here as first floor waiter and had been for some ten years Two years ago, a va cancy having occurred on the same floor, Jobin introduced one of his friends, Charles Burger to the man. agement, and he was given a job. Burger having no home Jobin offered to share his with Burger and his little girl. Madeleine, aged six. Burger was d widower. and intimate relations soon developed between him and JO- bins wife. Conversations in the household often drifted to the war. Burger had served as q private and was wounded JObin had done every thing possible to evade military ser vice and was not very enthusiastic about the feats of the Allied armies. The two men would often come very near to an eAshanse ot blows Burger, furthermore. was enyious If Johin's position at the Graul HcteI, wI.ete he was we'll liked by the management and patrons He had succeeded in saving 6o,OOO francs Burger knew this. as did his mistress, and they planned what they would do had they such an amount
 ROW ENDS IN MURDER
 From then on Burger thought only of various ways of getting this money. He could not induce Jubin to part with it with q view to investing it. What he considered was his chance came one night, however, when a more than usually heated discussion took place between the two men Mat ters went so far that Burger exas-
