It was an Ideal day. Nothing more
superb in the way of weather could
base been desired. The bright spring
day, with the sunshine tempered by a
refreshing breeze, added an additional
inspiration to the event. The services
were Interesting nnd impressive. The
oration was thoughtful, Instructive,
entertaining, full of wholesome food
for reflection, impressing on all the
part that education should and must
play In the development of high char
acter and Its Importance as one of
the corner stones of a democratic gov
ernment

school site, escorting Grand Master

lodge officers as follows:
Henry Banks, of Lagrange, M. W.
Grand Master.

THINK OF
Mustang' Liniment
AND WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU.
Relief from pain that might otherwise
cause j'ou hours of agony.
Tired out muscles eased up and made
ready for another day’s work.
Lameness in the back and shoulders
promptly cured and stiff joints limbered
up.
Burns, Scalds, Cuts and Mashes ren
dered painless and quickly healed.
Rheumatism, Lumbago and Sciatica
robbed of their anguish and banished
forever.
Ulcers, Old Sores and Open Wounds
healed promptly and permanently.
The first application of Mexican Mus
tang Liniment subdues the pain but it
continues its work until every quivering
nerve is soothed and quieted.
The great penetrating power of this
famous remedy enables it to do this
quickly and positively.
In all cases of Sprains, Bruises or Lame
ness, Mexican Mustang Liniment
should be rubbed in persistently.
The antiseptic qualities of this old relia
ble household remedy make it safe and
sure.

At 10:30 o'clock the croft and the
audience were called to attention and
Grand Master Banks called on the
Grand Secretary to read the Invitation
from the, authorities to the Grand
Lodge to lay the cornerstone. This
iwas follewed by an Invocation by
Grand Chaplain Burrows, and the
usual testing of this cornerstone by
the square, the level and the plumb.
When the proper officer; had attested
that tho craftsmen had done their

Commentlng on the Roosevelt-Vatl-
can Incident Dr. Bascom Anthony, pas
tor of St. Luke .a Methodist Church,
thus expresses his view to the Colum
bus Ledger. ,
“As to who shall be welcomed at his
house, the Pope Is competent to de
cide and nobody has a right to crlt!'
else him. In this he has the same
rights as other men. As to whether
or not they will accept his invitation
with all tho restrlstlons put upon it,
Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Fairbanks are
competent to settle, and both settled
It as you would expect an ( American
to do. In all this nobody has a right
to criticise either party.
"The real trouble Is found In what
lies back of It all. Tho Pope’s side
as given out by his representatives
Is that tho Methodists—and by the
way. It Is not my church, but the
Northern Methodists— have been
using means In their work offensive to
tho Pope. Two charges are made, first
that there Is a lot of poor and needy
people around the Vatican upon whom
the Methodists spent money and won
to their chureU and secondly, that
they exposed for sale, and did sell
books that were far from complimen
tary to the Pope and the Catholic
church. I have heard no plea from
the other side, but on general princi
pals I guess they plead guilty, both
sides agreeing on facts, but differing
on their Interpretation of facts.

It Is equally as difficult for an
American to understand why anyone
should Insist on his friends sneezing
when he takes snuff. Most of us will
agree that the Methodists and Catho
lics are able to fight out to a finish
without any outside Interference."
