that there should have been more of j

Mr Featherstone made a mighty y
fine address and those who were not i
present missed something that wovld
make them sit up and take notice, |r
He had spoken twice during the day
on the same subject, but was earnest
and forceful in the presentation of i
j
the matter at Central.

He said that there were big prob-;
lems to be solved by the world at
Uii's time and sometimes when one!
sat down and looked at the future he ?
almost became pessimistic, but that t
f
if the church would wake up to its
1
duty and responsibility and its real
mission all these problems would be j
? easy of solution. Sometimes he al ! i
I ,
most was forced to the conclusion c
that the church was getting away
from its real mission, which was to
I
serve humanity and *'n serving hu- j
manity it would serve God. j
It would be an easy matter to c
raise the money if every one would "
realize his opportunity and do his 1

Speaking incidentally of the talk j

f the world for which our boys had *

he spoke a great truth when he said

ied to all the peoples of the world 1

hood of God and the brotherhood of (
in was fully understood and practiced.
There must be the right sort ]
; peace in each heart of each indi - 1
'C.ual before there could be any real 1
::1 lasting peace. What the great
* *:d of the church expected and
wanted was not protestations of loy- j
i,.ly but service in the interest of hiu
uanity, and tdia( i? what ranlJy
ounts. The people had tean loyal
o their country and responded to
very call and he did not expect they
vould be lesa loyal to the c*Ul of

would act in a way that effectively
would remove the cause of the suffering.

that they had, the poor shared their

TRUE TO TRADITIONS OF SEA
Blue/ickets Would Accept No Reward
for Their Part in Aiding Injured
in Wreck.
Several Indianapolis men were passengers
on the New York Central train
wrecked near Bat a via. X. Y. One of
them, in describing the wreck, told
tin? following story:
"When I got into some clothes and
?*? * 4 w/.n 1 \1 a woc T
got our to see wmii mc uvu.
was surprised to s-.-f dozens of sailors
as busy as bees helping en re for flu
wounded and making people as comfortable
as possible. It developed that
our train was carrying two day coaches
filled with bluejackets, and a few seconds
after the crash came they
were out of the cars and making themselves
generally useful.
"Some time later representatives of
the railroad company came through the
crowd settling with the passengers for
slight damages. Some asked $50, others
$100, and cheeks for the nmoun*
asked were forthcoming. One big man
said that J?l(JU wouiu IIIMMll Mjimn
filings willi him, but added that Ihe
check should he made out to "those
sailors out there." Accordingly the
check was drawn in favor of rhe men
who had been working like Trojans
ever since the crash, But?
"The sailors refused to accept the
money.
"The check was then turned over to
the Red Cross to be used in naval relief
work."
Uncle Sam Returns Glaeses.
As several correspondents have already
revealed by means of apprecii
ative letters, the field glasses which
the government was forced to "borrow"
for the use of its sailors when it
went into the war are beginning tc
come back to their original owners?
and to come back almost infinitely Increased
in value by the murks of hard
handling which lkiost of them bear.
For thus these once prosaic utensils
have been made into precious relics
and souvenirs. Every mark and mat
and stain on them is proof that they
have helped to win the groat victory,
and to have one of These war-worn
treasures is also evidence thnt Its possessor
made a willing sacrifice, small
but real, when a need of his country
was brought to his attention.?New
York Times.
