SABBATH BELLS

| am no special friend to priests
Or creeds as / opine;
The thoughts by which they are in
spired
Too often clash with mine:
Yet awe and reverence in me
one churChly voice compeis.
lnditierenty / never hear
The sound o. Sabbath bells!
The cleric noisy datribe
| often hear in vain,
No more 1t moves me than the wind
Or rattle Of the rain.
Too often clerics discard truths
And hoard the musty SPELLS,
But never yet, mine ear stained
The sound of sabbath bells
The temple dome-the minister's
spire,
A certain charm convey;
But these are mute; the pealing
chimes
Go far and far away,
The church is sometimes, too a place
Where priest-craft weayes iUs
spells,
But concord, comfort courage mark
1 The sound of Sabbath bells!
There is magic in the tone
That every doubt dispels,
And leaves tranquility instead,
! The voice of Sabbath bells.
And Heavens hope and Heavens joy
! And Heavens mercy tells,
The call to all Earths men
That speaks in Sabbath bells.
Like as an echo from the host
In paradise which dwel,s.
1t seems to overflow my sole
The sound of Sabbath bells!
I And something searches all my heart
Like seraph song that swells
From Heavens far off parapet
The sound OF Sabbath bells!

Funeral Services for "chlnatowr

Funeral Services for chinatown
Gertie,"
New York, April 14.--All that was
mortal of Gertrude Merritt, known to
the lowly OF New York East Side
simply as Chinatown Gertie, was
laid at rest yesterday in the Linden
Hill Cemetery, Brooklyn. For years
an outcast in the streets and alleys
OF the Bowery when that thorough.
fare was the synonym of crime and
degradation, she became almost in a
single night ministering angel to
the suffering, an interceder for the
erring, a counsel Of the weak and an
ayenging shadow to those who had
broken their promises to follow the
straight and narrow path.
Funeral services for the woman
were held Wednesday night in the
little chapel OF the Midnight Mission
of the Rescue Society in Doyers
Street the heart Of Chinatown. Men
and women who knew her laughed as
a score Of speakers, hardened to the
ways Of the underworld told stories
Of Chinatown Gertie."
These had known her when she
was a pariah, even on the lower East
Side, and most Of them had been led
to better things by the woman
whose flower-covered coffin stood
before the little pulpit 1t was not
all laughter however for here and
there hands brushed away tears that
flowed down their cheeks.

ing Montn FOF faCtoT'
Although the Ford Motor Company,
Detroit, has been increasing the out
put of Fordsons daily since the first
Of the year, retail sales have main
tanned even a greater advance
April requirements necessitate the
building of four hundred Fordsons a
day, and production is being further
increased as rapidly as possible. This
is the Ford Companys largest output
since 1919, and it is expected that
production will have broken all prev
ious records before the end of the
month.
The increased buying of Fordsons
indicates that the farmers position
is better and also is the farmers en-.
dorsement of the Fordson price-cut
which created considerable comment
throughout the country.
Besides the Fordsons being sold
for farm use, many are being sold in

provided for them--cocOnut and the
pandanus fruit. They had no houses.
They lived under, matched roofs, sup

The natives are not so far modern

stir themselves to do any work. They
do not believe in work. They leave
work to the women. The hardest task
the men perform is to carry around
