Tile Plant.
George and Charles Lower, of Canton,

of locating a tile plant hereabouts.
Goorgo Lower was here week before

for such a plant, that he brought his
brother here to look over the grounds.
These gentlemen are now interested in
a large plant at Canton. Tholr present
plant makes a specialty of drain tile,
hollow brick, and terra cotta ware.
Their plunt employs forty-five men or
more. They would require six acres of
land. The gentlemen loft here yester

build a plant here or not. If they do

Hats Off in Church.
At a meeting of tho Helping Hand
Society of the Methodist Episcopal
church lost Wednesday, the members
of that society voted unanimously to re
move their hats at the preaching service
in the church, the new reform to be in
augurated at the morning service Sun
day. True to their promise the mem
bers of that society sit under the sound
ot the gospel with uncovered heads at
the morning and evening services Sun
day. For two years The Star has ad
vocated the removing of big hats at
publlo gatherings, and" of course we
commend the ladles of .the Helping
Hand for the step they have taken, and
hope the time Is not far distant when
big hats will not be seen in halls and
churches after the exercises begin.
The removing of bats may prove a
trifle inconvenient for the ladles, but
it removes a great annoyanoe from
people who ebanoe to get behind jt big
hat.
Baccalaureate 8ermon.
John H. Harris, Ph. D., LL. D., pres
ident of Bucknell Ulvorslty of Lewis
burg, Pa., preached the baccalaureate
sermon in the Methodist Episcopal
church Sunday at 11.00 A. M., U the
high school graduating class. The In
terior of tho church was nicely dec
orated with the class colors, gold and
purple, and with potted plants. Tho
church, which has tho largest seating
capacity of any building in town, was
taxed to Its utmost, and then some had
to stand during the entire sorvlce and
others went homo rather than Btand so
long. It was a union service. Rev. Rum
bergor had chnrge of tho services and
Revs. Reber and Dean assisted in the
opening and closing exorcises. After
tho congregation had assembled the
graduating clnss, with Profs. Lenkerd
and Madden, marched into the church
and occupied the sents that had been
reserved for them.
Dr. Hnrris selected his text from
Mat. 28: 20, "Lo, I am with you always,
even unto the end of the world." His
sermon was a masterly one. It was one
hour long, but under the sound of such
an Inspiring and uplifting sermon the
sixty minutes quickly passed away.
He spoke of gl vt ng 1 ibrarles, fon n tal ns,
statuary, &c, to towns or cities, and
said it was not within the power of
every person to make such gifts, but he
said tho grandest gift to a town or city
Is a pure and noble character, which
lies within the power of all to bequeath
if they desire to do so. Those who
heard Dr. Harris' sermon, If they gave
it any thought, could not help but feel
that a noble life is worth striving for.

An Explanation.
Fortheconvenienceof many Inquirers,
Mr. Dean requested the publication of
tho following:
At the request of Rev. J. M. Dean I
make the following statement: Dr.
Harris' time here on Sunday 'last was
not ongaged by mo beyond the morning
address. After tho baccalaureate ser
vices Dr. Harris' time was entirely at
his own disposal. I hod made no agree
ment with my brethren of the Metho
dist church beyond saying that I would
use my Influence to secure Dr. Harris
for them in the evening as a partial re
turn for tholr kindness in giving their
church for the use of the public schools.
My Invitation, to Dr. Harris to preach
for the Methodist pastor was declined
by him because he had previously made
an engagement with Rov. Dean. After
the arrival of the speaker on Sunday
murnlng, Rev. Dean, tho matter being
entirely in his own hands, very kindly
released Dr. Harris from his promise,
at my request.
I regret to hear that Mr. Dean has
been misrepresented and trust that all
concerned will see that there tsnocause
for 111 feeling, misunderstanding being
largely the cause of the conflicting re
ports. Respectfully submitted,
Q. W. Lenkerd.
