IMMIGRATION AND DODD LA TION According to the Bureau of Immigra tion the total number of immigrants landed in November was 117,076, against 117,476 in the same month of 1907 a decline of two-thirds in number. A table prepared by the bureau shows thatduring twelvemonths from Oct. 1, 1907, to Oct. 1, 1908. the number of im migrants was 681,809, and the number of "non-immigrants” who arrived was 142,112 persons. On the other hand, 899,181 persons classed as immigrants and .'118,680 classed as "non-immi grants” departed from these shores a total of 717,814. So, by these figures, the actual increase of the population of the United States from this source was only 6,298 during the twelve months ending Oct. 1, 1908. The details of immigration and emi gration are given month by month in the report. During the eleven months ending in November last the total im migration amounted to 364,316, against 1,334,166 in the twelve calendar months ol 1907. The Philadelphia Record, commenting on these statistics, says: "When accounts of immigration and emigration for the last ten years are I ally made up people who talk of a p filiation of 90,000,000 in the United Slates will be apt to be disappointed by the returns of the next eensus. This is becoming in some degrees a migratory country, as well as one of the countries in which the growth of native population is not increasing in its former ratios.” The duty of the young man toward bis future self iH the greatest duty he has, says David Star Jordan. It is greater than his duty to parents, friends or society, for it includes all of these. We should so live that our fu ture selves have shall nothing to re proach us for. Keep clean. Keep the body clean from vice, from drink, from drugs. Keep the mind clean. Don’t till it with poor jokes, with cheap mu sic or foul thoughts. flic Hogc>--Wynn Wedding Wednesday Weal Point IIithIiI. i : •• >(’clock Wednesday evening the handsome and Spacious auditorium of the First Methodist church, which had been tastefully and beautifully deco rated lor (lie occasion, was crowded with friends lo witness the marriage 1 ’: i , don Wvnti.
