the Essential Condition of Progress"
and used appropriate illustrations
from the realms of science. art. pub

the helpful lessons which he brought
out. in all these spheres there is
the need uf the man who not only
secs things as they are, hut who
also has the power to see them as
they ought to be.
The speaker dwelt particularly
upon the value of vision to the young
people in our churches and to the
churches themselves. Vision is a
valuable asset in huffeting adversely.
in achieving results in the face OF
Obs$acles, and in preserving cor

values in life. His description of a

DafeARiaht of Carriers

Long litigation over possession Of a
loaf of bread at last has confirmed
the claim of q common carrier to
possession of articles left behind by
fergetful passengers, says the New
York Telegraph. BY such seeming
~ trifiing incidents are established
principles of law and equity often
brought to the attention of the pub
lie.
The issue grew out of the arrest of
a man who picked up a package left
by another passenger, on seat of a
New York subway train. The train
master demanded the package under
the company's rule requiring all
such estrays to be turned in at the
office. subject to claim by the owners.
Although it then was discovered that
the package contained nothing more
valuable than a scent loaf of bread,
the matter went to litigation.
Through all the devious ways that
such seemingly petty cases get up to
the highest court, the case reached
the Court of Appeals of The state.
There, after as solemn deliberation as
Is given to issues involving large
amounts of money and more mo-
mentous principles. the court held
that the rule of the company was
based on a well-established principle
of law.
The finder could have no claim to
the article as having been lost. 1t
merely had been left by the carrier,
who at once became bailee for the
owner. The other person, instead of
acquiring any right to it as finder
under the law. technically became a
thief If he retained it, netwithstafnd-
ing his expressed intention to adver-
tise for the owner.

Alderman Morse Explains Plans for

Alderman Walter \. Morse, recently

ment in regard to the plans for the
fire department.:
ITO the Citizens of Gardiner: mas
much as there seems to be miSunder-
standing with regard to the new plans
for the fire department, l wish to offer
this brief explanation. When / as
sumed Office an January | found three
men under regular employment with
the pumper at a salary of 81 a week
cnch. In the organization one of
these men will be dropped and the
chief engineer will take his place. The
chief engineer will receive "A salary of
$l5o0 The man whose place he takes
on the pumper would get $l092 per
year.. The salary of the old chief engi-
ncor was 1925, and the two added to-
gether would make $1il7. The city
under the new arrangement pays Slou0
and under the old $1i17. making the OK
ira cost to the city the sum OF SS5
]1ut we have also arranged to drop two
men from each of the five companies
making 10 less. These men receive $50
Il year each. This makes a saving to
the city of $500. Dcducting the extra
cost of the chief engineer of $50 leaves
a net sewing to the city of S217. be-
sides an increased efficiency by reason
of having the chief on the job for n
hours each day.

manuscript of an extremely interest
ing book intended for publication in

teresting eXpositions of the commu-
nifty church idea which he is engag-
ed in furthering in the rural sec
tons of the West and Middle West
1t is from this rural work of his
that Mr. Dana obtained the initial
idea and the inspiration for this new
book, which promises to be extreme
~ successful among devotional
works.
