day he and Leon A. Ransom, his
attorney. complained to a COM

est possible appropriation bill
which DR.. Corning said would be
the budget for 1886. Mr.. Ran
som said he would try to find
out a way it could be done in

the matter if possible.
Mr.. Williams, meanwhile, is
being named acting chief IL
brarian

he'll get pay boost of $11e

Star of Christianity at work. For
us: let us ask the question Where
Is He ?" Is He in the United Ma
tons Organization. His presence
would give offence to many things
in there, but He is the Prince of
Peace. Is He in our Government
and politics. Many who seek to
lead our government do anything
they please to on the SABBATH. Is
He in industry and business.
Sometimes we are more interested
in worldly wealth than Heavenly
riches. Is He in society. Noise of
merriment pushes aside the angel
song on Bethlehem. Is He in the
halls of learning. We seek to
soothe the feelings of unbelief, to
disturbinb them. Is He in our
churches, pupits. homes; is He to
be found anywhere. Can we say
we have Him in our hearts. Where
is He that is born, King of the
Jews, the saviour of all men every
