This is a famous old church and includes among it's mem bers many of the summer colony most wealthy society and famous peo. pie. The steeple is lS0 feet high. Mir.

The unusual part of this contract lies in the fact that Tom not only painted the steepie l3 years ago. but also giided the ornaments at the top of the towering pinnacle. IL is not often that a steeple-jaek, after l3 years have elapsed, gets the chance Go do his work over again, chiefly be- cause in too many cases the steeple- jack, during the intervening l3 years. has been injured or has met death while working on some job at great height
 The other task that Steeple Tom will tackle shortly Will De the work that is to be done on the chimney Of the Stevens mill at Webster. He will put his rigging up through the use of a box kite.

 The prize puddings were kept on display for several days, and chefs from many of the leading hotels in New York city visited the ships to look a, the results. One of the prize winners represents a monument sur- mounted by glorious American eagle; the other, and one which makes tremendous hit with the general public. represents a tree stump with protruding branches, on which squirrels made from confec- tions. munch acorns, The compe- tition demonstrated. among other things, the wonderful skill of the chefs on the United States Lines. The chefs are not only competent cooks but are artists in their line of endeavor As result of the pudding contest. keen rivalry has been de- veloped among the various chefs on the various vessels of the fleet. all of which works to the interest of the travelling public.

Depict Chris { s
Last Seven Days

Jesus the Way, the Truth and
the Life, was the subject of the
discourse delivered at the Passion
Week services on Thursday night by
the Rev George a. Hartman. The
preacher read most impressively
John II, which repeats the words Of
comfort spoken by Jesus to His
disciples on the very eve of His
death H. told them He was going
to prepare for them a home in
Heaven and He promised the Com
forter, who would dwell with them
till He comes again.
The preacher said that Christ is
the way, and that the way leads to
Heaven and joy and peace. That
Heaven is but another room and
that the road thereto is everlasting.
As an illustration, the speaker told
Of going over the Apian way in
Rome while with the A. T. F. Tenn
pies and houses and castles were in
ruins, but the great Roman road
was there clear as the time of its
building centuries ago. So viii
Christ the Way, endure as viii His
Light and His Truth
The Rev. 4. +. Schultzc sang
solo as the special music feature.
The Rev. G. T. Flanagan delivered
the closing sermon of Passion week
services last night at the First Pres
bvterian church. - \ Night and
Day with Jesus was the subject,
the preaching picturing Jesus III the
Garden, His betrayal into the hands
of His enemies, His trial before the
Jewish authorities and PLATE and
other incidents leading up to the
crucifixion and the burial in
Joseph s tomb.
1t was an impressive discourse,
well delivered. The speaker used
the dial of 4 clock in his illustra-
ton, depicting the events of the
tragic period, hour by hour, and
giving to each its full significance.
1t was fitting close to the series
of sermons bearing ON the events
of Christ s last week, beginning
with the busy day on Tuesday, de-
tailed in the sermon by the Rev.
Schultze; the scene in the Upper
Room and the institution of the
Last Supper, by the Rev. Worthy;
Jesus comforting His disciples which !
