Hail, the heaven-born Prince of Peace!
Hail, the Sun of Righteousness!
Light and life to all He brings,
Risen with healing in His wings.
Mild He lays His glory by,
Born that man more may die,
Born to raise the sons of earth,
Born to give them second birth.
Hark! the herald angels sing,
"Glory to the new-born King."
Joy to the earth! the Saviour reigns:
Let me their sons employ
While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains
Repeat the sounding joy.

No more let sins and sorrows grow,
Nor thorns infest the ground
He comes to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found.
He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness,
And wonders of His love.
elec
tion for congressman from Montana,
has come forth and declared that he
will make no effort to contest the
.seat of his rival, Miss Jeanette Ran
kin, and if proceedings are instituted
in the national body and prove suc
cessful he will not seek to pi'ont
thereby. An eastern daily raises the
question as to whether^ this
is chivaliy
on the part of Mr. Mitchell.
Perhaps it is, but we do not look
at it in that light but rather the
using of good, sound judgment on the
part of Mr. Mitchell, who, no doubt,
possesses a sufficient amount ox
chivalry so necessary in the make-up
of a true, American gentleman. He
has no grounds on which to base a
contest and therefor refuses to be
little himself by bringing one against
a lady. Good judgment, not chivalry.

Tioga School Girl

The Williams county delegation of
school children, accompanied by Miss
Bertha Palmer, deputy county su
perintendent returned from the four
day boys and girls state institute held

the splendid courtesy and entertain
ment accorded the visiting pupils by

The four days, Tuesday to Friday,

onstrations. All subjects included in

LYRIC THEATRE
Screen Stars
Lenore Ulrich, whose Hawaiian
princess in "The Bird of Paradise"
was a countrywide sensation, is soon
to be seen as the star of a specially
1 a borate production, "Kilmeny,
which the Oliver Morosco Photoplay
Company will present at the Lyric
Theatre Tuesday, Dee. 26th.
Interesting in connection with the
many noted names included in the
support of Lenore Ulrich is a story
about Miss Victory Batieman who
gives a singularly powerful char
acterization of a gypsy seeress. Miss
Bateman was leading woman for Ed
win Booth and the elder Salvini in
her teens and was Richard Mans
field's selection for Roxane in his
famous "Cyrano," and for years has
been counted one of the finest Amer
ican actresses. One of her famous
roles is "Carmen"- in the dramatiza
tion of Bizet's famous opera, but
despite the hundreds of times she
played the part of the cigarette girl
who faithfully smokes her own wares
Miss Bateman never actually drew
smoke into her mouth until the gypsy
part in "Kilmeny." In previous
years she had got around it neatly
by having her various leading men
keep her cigarette going for her until
just time for going on the stage.
Then she would flourish the smoledr
ing cigarette as though she had just
smoked it, and would so time the
inevitable "next puff" that she could
always just prevent it by a speech.
Close as the cigarette came to her
lips so many hundreds of times she
had to actually follow Sir Walter
Raleigh's example.
ELDER STEWART MAKES
PROPHECY PLAIN
Dealing with the great prophetic
image of Daniel, 2d chapter, in his
discourse of Sunday night last, Elder
E. L. Stewart, made it a subject of
profound interest.
In his chapter the prophetic his
tory of the world is portrayed, and
in this particular prophecy rests the
key to all bible prophecy.
The Elder quoted 2 Peter 1.20
"Know this first that no prophecy of
the scripture is of any private in
trepretation" thus proving that we
must search God's Holy Word for
an explanation of prophccy. Then
taking up the intrepretation of the
image given in the same chapter of
Daniel, he outlined the four great
universal Kingdoms, beginning with
Babylon, to the present day, when
the stone which is cut out without
hands, or the Kingdom of Christ, is
to dash the image to fragments, and
"This stone is to become a great
mountain and fill the whole earth."
This interesting line of bible study
will continue every night at the little
brick church 143 East Broadway, the
subject for Sunday night being
"Signs of the times," 7:30 o'clock.
All are invited.
