in this part of the world 200 years

that our difficulties and problems

all accounts, these early missionaries
faced difficulties that would have
staggered most of us today. and they
faced them cheerfully and bravely.
To this fine courage and sturdy
loyalty and burning zeal we owe,
under God, the laying of the foun-
dations of our Communion in these
parts. Imagine what it would mean
to travel from New Hampshire to
South Carolina in 1902, through a
wild country, over what we're called
roads but which were in fact nothing
but trails through the forest. 1t was
necessary to go on horseback for no
wheeled conveyance could survive
these trails-nor would they have
been safe. There were few inns: a
traveller slept in the lonely farm
houses. Imagine the difficulty fac

our present life of endless meetings.

business. These good men had time
to think, time to pray. and time for
the cure of souls. This kind of mis-

been intoxicated, started a commo-

the police. Fearing that serious

by their culture which has become
theirs from years of research and
thought, physicians are especially
qualified to understand human need,
but in the fascination of this study
of the individuals disease, in this

they have not too often been led
away from their larger duty to the
public as a whole.
'Too long has the medical pro-
fession allowed this state to be
guided by laymen in matters OF, pub

are qualified to act. All laws to be
truly beneficial must be based on an
understanding Of psychology and
physiology as we'll as customs and
principals. To disregard this is to
invite disaster.
"What did they mean by being Il
gentleman? How old fashioned 1t
sounds to us. But although we sell
dom use the term, down in u in
ner consciousness we still mean a
man who has character, who has ed
ucation, and is truthful and honor
able IN his dealings, not only with
others but with himself. He must
possess culture and a certain %fineness
of thought and action which dis
tinguishes him from the others.
THE Chinese have a custom.
When they enter into a contract the
man does not sign his name to the
contract but makes q memorandum
of the contract on a piece of paper,
which he puts in his W posket and
keeps it, thus making a contract with
himself. A man who will fulfill such
n contract is a gentleman. And every
day every member of the medical
profession, every member of the
clergy, must make and fulfill such a
contract. For they are the custo-
dams of humanities personal trag-
edies and these must be forgotten
the next moment.
"These are the ideals which the
profession in spite of changing times
still must hold before 1t. Manners

Qualified experts, after careful
scientific analysis, have declared
that Father Johns Medicine is one
of the most valuable nutrients
Known and is made of ingredients of
the highest quality.
Confident of their ability to prove
every claim made for Father Johns
Medicine, the makers engaged Sell,
Putt &c Rusty, three eminent re-
search chemists of New York City,
to make independent tests of Father
Johns Medicine purchased in the
open market.
DIR. Harvey A. Sell, who was a
former government analyst in the
Food and Drugs Division, also visit
ed the laboratory at Lowell, Mass,
where Father Johns Medicine is
made. took samples of every ingred-
ient and of the completed medicine
and at the same time made a thor
ough examination of the proce of
compromising.
So thorough and complete was the
analysis that it extended over near
ly a year, and at its completion GER
tificates of analysis were issued
which are now on file and may be
seen at any time. The report States:
''The ingredients are all of the
first quality as determined by the
standards of the United States
Pharmacopoeia."

New York, and S. Peters Parish,
Perth Amboy, were not only founded
about the same time, but the first
rector of Trinity Parish, the Rev
eTend William Vesey, D. D.. knew
the first rector of st. Peters and
conducted services in the building
first used as a church in this place.
William Vesey was Commissary of
the Bishop of London and had some
oversight of the beginnings of this
Parish; and the friendly relationship
so early established continued
through years, and today I hope may
be renewed and strengthened.
The ambitious settlers of this
town, though many were Scotch, yet
must have belonged to the Church of
England, for they applied to the
Bishop of London for a clergyman
to come and settle among them. Ed

Under the watchfrl eyes of experts
who have had years of experience in
making Father Johns Medicine, the
various ingredients are subjected to
the most exacting tests. BY means
of specially designed apparatus and
by our own special process, these in

that they form what has come to be

RECORDS OFTEN MISLEAD.
Statement Relating to Mileage of
Makes of Tires.

Tire mileage records are often mis-
leading. 1t is actually possible for
a given lot of a few tires to run
farther than the average and still be
poorer tires than others. 1t is not
the point that the use Of average tire
mileages Is wrong, but rather that
the average mileage test, with no
knowledge OF actual running condf-
tions, may be entirely misleading.
Unless something is known of the
facts behind tire averages ii Is diff
ficult to make reliable decision on
such tests. The fact is well known
that, under normal conditions, front
tires will outrun rear tires. II a
large portion of the tires to be tested
are applied on front wheels it Is very
possible that they may equal an aver
age mileage of previous tires used on
rear wheels and still be poorer tires
1t Is necessary to know on what
wheels the tires arc run. Also to
take into account the running condi-
tons overlooking, wheel alignment
and accidents. Other influencing fac
tors in addition to- natural tire ia
tigue are imitation. peak loads. cuts,
repairs. etc.
an efficient basis for determining the
make of tire to be used should be
discouraged, say Miller tire experts,
unless the. figures are carefully an
alyzed and understood In this way
only is 1t possible to determine rela-
tive tire service. Miscellaneous
averages without qualification and
analysis are dangerous figures upon
which to compare tire performances.
