R. N. McMICHAEL, Pastor Wiliam Allen White, in a recent article, says that America is still two hundred years behind the idealism of the Declaration of lindeppudeuce which was signed by the colonial patriots a hundred and fifty years ago. We commonly agree that it took real courage and patriotism to sign that historical document, in the midst of the uncertain turmoil of 1776. And we will agree in view of the geographical, industrial, national, social development, in America in the past, century and a half that tht signing of the Deciartion of Independence was a progressive and beneficial act. But when we think of the fine spirit of patriotism motivating the men wjio signed the Declaration of Independence, making it a great dynamic Golden Rule, we wonder is William Allen White correct? There will be no church servicenext Sunday. Sunday School at 9:30. Watch for announcement of place. i PERSONALS Wilbur Crane of Chicago is visiting with his uncle, Emanuel Sawyer. Mr. and Mrs. J. M.

Son Sends Congratulations to His father The following letter was received by one of Nappauee s venerable residents just before Father’s day. It carries a line sentiment a till one that was truly appreciated by the recipient. We are glad to reproduce it for the benefit of our reuders:, June 18, 1926 My dear Father: . Well, Sunday * is--Father’s day and ,ve wish we could be with you, but since that probably will not be possible, will send you a lino of greeting. Am glad someone originated this special day in recognition of the father’s place in the great activities of this world for I think we are enitled to a place in the appreciation of the world equal to that of mother. Mother u place is a big one in the .marts of ail true children and no tonor is too much to the one who gave us birth and cared for us so ‘slthfully. But on the other hand ihe fattier who has the great burden of providing the comforts with which, to build- a home for the mother and children and the ’wherewith to supply the physical neds of all dependent on him is worthy of a very large place of honor as well. I want to therefore express to you at this time my very deep appreciation of your love and concern for my well being all through my life, not only in providing for us and giving us a good home while we were still all together, but also for the great concern you have always had for our spiritual welfare. That was the most important and the" older we grow the more clearly this part ot your fatherly care becomes the more apparent. You were unusually blest in having such a large family born to bear your name and spared through all these years so you, have never had to endure the sorrow of burying your own flesh and blood, but with this came great responsibility in the rearing of them all in the fear of God and you certainly did your part well and with great credit. No doubt God has spared you these many years because you were so much needed for this and because you were so faithful to your obligation and I personally greatly honor you in my heart and appreciate you more than I could express in words. My prayer is that you may yet be spared to us many years and that your remaining years on the earth may all be filled with the peace of God and much happiness in your posterity and your many friends. Your life has been a signal success and I pray this may continue without a mar in any way to the end and then blend into the more blessed and perfect life beyond with phrist and mother and all of us.

Most sincerely, Your Son. MITSCHELEN FAmTIY REUNION The Mitsehelen family reunion was held Sunday at the home of Mrs. C. A. Mitsehelen, three miles southeast of Nappanee.

Freak Rock Sculpture Work of Dame Nature ’ On the Cornish coast of England, Dame Nature has excelled In the art of the sculptor in the number of faces ■he has carved In the rock by means of wind and wave and weather. Every visitor to Land’s end is taken to a certuin point of vantage where can be seen the rugged fentures of Doctor Johnson, but In this case a little imagination Is required. Far better Is the remarkable likeness of Queen Victoria on the north const of Cornwall. At Redrutlien steps, the Queen Elizubetlrroek rises mujestlrffTiyAUt Os the sands. Every motorist through the Lake district sees the lion and the lamb, on the. summit of a mountain near Grasmere. The lion especially looks as well carved as one of the Landseer lions In Trafalgar square. Strangely enough, approaching from the othef side, two or three tnlles beyond, another rock on the same mountain- takes precisely tiie same form, and on coming closer this rock changes to wlmt Is called “The Lady at the Organ.” This Is a great rock In the shape of an organ, at which sits a woman with outstretched hands, as though producing "the sound of a greut amen." Exposure to Cold Not Harmful in Still Air Professor Barcroft’s heart beat and blood flow test on naked persons in the extreme cold of ten degrees below the freezing point suggests the question : What degree of cold can the unclad liuntun body withstand? Perhaps the most surprising experiment In this direction was made during the international circumpolar. expeditions In 1882-3. The officer in charge of the northern Siberian station, clad only in his nightshirt, left his tent for a stroll In the open ulr when the temperature was 72 degrees below the freezing point, and he was none the worse for It! This result was explained by the fact that during the promenade not a breath of air was stirring. Had there been a purga (the terrible blizzard Os that region), with its dense, blinding, and suffocatlflg cloud of ice needleg, it would have meant Instantaneous death. Organ Built of Bamboo Tuneful melodies of sweet, wellrounded tone still flow from the pipes of a bamboo organ built Into the church at Las Pinas in the Philippines more than 110 years ago by the Augustinian fathers. This instrument is constructed wholly of bamboo cut from a Jungle near the church. The builders treated the bamboo to make it impervious to the elements. The pipes were burled in sand for six months for seasoning and hardening as a protection against both the atmosphere and white ants, which attack nearly all wooden articles in that climate. In 1863 and again in 1882 the organ was damaged, the first time by an earthquake and the second time by a typhoon which blew off the roof of the church. It wus silent for 29 years until in 1917 Father Fanlei, a Belgian missionary, had it repaired and since that time It has been in constant service. History of Suez Canal The Suez canal, 92 miles long, connecting the Red sea and the Mediterranean, was built by a stock company organized in 1854 by the French engineer, De Lesseps. Work was commenced in 1859 and November 16, 1869, the canal was opened in the presence of the emperor of Austria, the empress of the French and the khedive of Egypt. The cost of the undertaking was somewhat more than $100,000,000. The canal is a sea-level canal and its completion reduced the sea voyage from London to India more than 3,500 miles. In 1875 the British government purchased the khedlve’s Interest In the canal for about $20,000,000, and now owns the controlling interest —Kansus City Times.

Seal the Bargain The young plumber had proposed to the girl that evening and had been accepted. Several hours later they parted and he went home. At three o’clock In the morning a loud ringing of tire front door bell of the girl’s abode was heard. Her father, roused from slumber, went to a window and, sticking out his head. Inquired who was there. r ‘‘lt’s John,” said a voice from below ; “I asked Agnes to marry me and she 8a Id she would, but I forgot to kiss her.” Weaving Is Ancient Trade Although gardening is generally looked upon as the oldest trade in tha world, weaving runs it very close. ' In a case tried In England In 1821, the plaintiff claimed damages for the Infringement of his canvas-weaving patent, but a witness for the defense asserted that the method had been , known and practiced for over 2,000 years. To prove this he produced some cloth from an Egyptian mummy, the thread of which was spun and twisted just as the plaintiff's was. Where Flu Comes From David was playing that one of the dolls was seriously 111. He was heard to remark to Nancy,- ‘‘This doll has the ‘flu’ so bad. She caught It from the back bedroom." “Oh,” laughed mother, “1 didn’t know you could catch flvi from a bedroom.” “Why, of comas," answered David, “that's where tktlsf hole is.”
