STRUCK BY FALLING POLE. eman Philip Whaley Was Scratched and Bruised Saturday Afterncon. who 1is y, had injury Philip Whaley of Norwich, employed as 2 lineman by the ¢ a marrow escape from serious Saturday afternoon shortly after 4 o’clock while working on the new pole line from the light station to the J. B. Martin_company’s velvet mill at Taft- ville. Mr. Whaley was assisting other linemen in putting up a pole on North Main street near the tammery. The heavy pole got away from them as the: were raising it up and it swung arour and fell on ‘Mr. Whaley, knocking hi down and rolling over him.

Prompt service day or night. SIGNIFICANCE OF PALM Theme of Sotmn Preached by Rev. Dr.‘-nfmanlk Methodist Church. At Trinity church Sunday morning there was a large congregation to hear Dr. M. S. Kaufman preach upon the theme The Significance of Palm Sun- day. His text was John xii, 12-13 and M?gk xi. 9:10. During his sermon he said: The last Sunday in Lent is known as emblems of victory. For many cen- turies it has been observed by large di- vision of the Christian church in com- memoration of Christ’s public and tri- umphal entry into Jerusalem. It is the certainty of his ultimate victory over all opposition throughout the whole universe and to all eternity that throws back up the event we celebrate on Polm Sunday its com- manding significance. It is prophetic of that splendid time, undoubtedly fast approaching, when he, the Prince of Peace, will ride triumphantly into ev- ery nation, into every city and com- munity, and all the multitudes of earth will intelligently shout “Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest.” The armies of this globe will ground their arms, they will beat spears into plowshares and swords into pruning hooks, and unite in the pursuits of peace, waving palm branches in honor of him who merits the homage of angels and of men. Arbitration is fast becoming the policy of Christian nations. Many of the wisest men of our noble Anglo- Saxon race and of other leading races, are saying with emphasis that war is Jjustifiable only after all resources for a peaceable settlement have been ex- hausted. Let up hope that the sub- lime lesson of every human being's essential dignity and worth in the sight of God is being too well and too rap- idly learned to admit of men being again swept like cattle into fields of slaughter. Some better use can be found for men made in God's image than that of shooting them down in battle. Dispute it and doubt it as we the fact still stands out in bold relief and radiant outline that love is conquering the world. Christ is eter- nal love incarnate, dying love, divine love—suffering, falling, rising, tri- umphing. Let us not be deceived or disheart- ened by appearances. Let us not be su- perficial in judgment. In our short- as Palm Sunday, co-called because of the prominence given to palm branches and late who ponnits Christ to hang upon the cross. But the majestic Lord who converted his cross into a throne from which he is ruling the ages. Would that ‘we might heed the teachings of the cen- turies! Are we toiling, striving, strug- gling for the temporal or for the eter- nal? Are we wasting our energies in seeking to win a crown of laurel leaves that will wither the mofnent they touch our fevered b or for a crown . that is forever less? Palm Sunday says to us: Live victoriously! Conquer self, unholy desires, the per- verse will, and place the entire per- sonality in loving subordination to the victorious Christ. He and he only is worth Hving for with all our powers. ‘Whatever trials and troubles, storms and battles may beat upon us, no €x- perience of ours can ever equal the severity of those that swirled and seethed about our Lord. He overcame that we might conquer. Availing our- selves of what he was won for us, we may realize Lord Tennyson's ideal of manhood, found in obedience to the law of conscience, adhesion to duty, self knowledge, self control, self rev- erence, clearness from the soil of evil. “wearing the white flower of a blame- less life.” This is no easy achievement. But the battle is inevitable. It cannot be escaped. All must fight. Better fight on the side of Christ, with the abso- lute certainty of success, than to fight against him with the absolute certain- ty of defeat and failure. To him “ev- ery knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess him Lord to the glory of God, the Father.” If we are faithful we shall witness that glorious consummation and be permitted to sharé in its magnificent celebration, to wave our palms in hon- or of Christ’s universal and eternal tri- umph. We shall form a part of that wvast multitude which no man can num- ber, of all nations and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne of God, saying with genuine gratitude and thrilling joy: “Blessed is he that hath triumphed. Hosanna in the highest.” attended to it, since when there has been no more trouble. Attended Birthday Party in Blissville.
