We are in I the midst of the greatest exercise 01 the -flpwer of this country that has ever been witnessed or forecast, and . a single day of relaxation in that ef~ | fort would :be of tragical damage alike to ourselves and the rest of the world. | Nothing has happened which makes it safe or possible to do anything but 1 '-push our efforts to the utmost.

Wj I? Memory of Br. W. E. Pelham, Jr. ! ff Death is sad at all times, but in - this particular instance it eren seems sadder, for when we lose one that was doing so much good in relieving the suffering we cannot un- 1 derstand why he was taken; still we . dare not question God's wisdom, for ?? Wo all thine3 for the - wc &uun ??v u~?? w "best. In our home. and in many others his sympathetic smile will be tenderly . missed, for he was erer ready to respond to the call of duty. The lifs that was given, has been_taken away and is now "free from its prison of 1 pain, for sickness is no affliction, pain no curse, death itself no dissolution." j Comfort and heal the aching hearts i of bis loved ones and let them re- . memi>er that though they are sepa rated here on earth they will soon j Temrited in a happier home, where j sorrow and si-ckness is unknown.
