THE Prayer of the Week
The evening prayer this week is by W. E. Orchard:
“Lord of the night as of the day, we thank Thee
that the gatherng darkness so often speaks to us of
Thee.
grow more conscious of the purer
It is when the light of day is done that we often
light that shines
within. The closing hours of day beget in us a tender:
ness towards eternal things. A feeling of homelessness
moves our feet to seek for Thee, our only rest.
The
memory of unnoticed sins comes back to mind, and we
long for nobler life. We become like the children who
put off their garments gladly, who wait to hear again
some oft-told tale, who feel they must unburden their
hearts to some listening and forgiving heart. Be near
us now, O Father. Amen.”

It isn’t even wise to let a
new auto stand idle too long
lest the cylinders grow rusty
and the human machine like-

‘Of This and
It was just a little packet
of yellowed letters, written
in a fine old-time script, but
they turned back the hands
of time and brought the past
to life.
In fact, the hands of time . .
were turned back some 105
years, putting us right in
the middle of the Civil War
—March 23, 1863°
The letters, written by WM.
Smith Malhorn, were addres-
sed to “Mrs. E. P. Anderson,
Lancaster City, Penna.,” and
were brought to us this past
week end by Charles Ander-
son, west Main street.
“l don’t know exactly
whose letters they were,” he
told us, “but possibly they
were my great-grandmother’s.
But I thought it was interest-
ing that Abraham Lincoln
was mentioned in them—and
Lincoln’s birthday is this
week!”
The letters are written on
official stationery of the
“Head-Quarters Ninth Army
Corps’, with one being dated
from ‘Opposite Fredericks-
burg, Va.,” and another from
“Lexington, Va’
They tell of the soldier's
wish to be back in Lancaster
County: “I would love to be
in either Lancaster or Har-
risburg for Christmas, but
I suppose it is impossible
EE how I would
like to visit Lancaster .and
hear you play on your piano
—why, I would be right at
home and would enjoy it so
much!”
Then he speaks of sterner
things: . “I wish you were
here just a little while to see
all the gunboats and vessels
and steamers on the James
River just in front of our
office — the single turret

CONTROL RATS
One rat can eat as much as
40 pounds of feed yearly and
contaminate nearly 10 times
this amount. Stanley G. Ge-
sell, extension entomologist
at Penn State university, says
there are a number of rat
baits on the market. When
used properly, they are efec-
tive and safe. Always follow
directions carefully.

number of others whose
names I do not know . . . .
the Minnesota is just now
firing. What an awful smoke
she raises—but no one hurt
. We are now embarking
from Baltimore; from there
to the western army under
Rosencranz , . . it will take
us two or three weeks to
get there, but when we do,
depend on it, the rebels or
we will suffer loss—for we
are fighting boys when we
get started.”
In another place he tells:
“We are nearer a fight than
the 122nd regiment for we
are within 50 or 100 yards
of the rebels and it is expect-
ed we will stay here the best
part of the winter . . . we
have conversation with '@ the
rebels every day and some
of our boys crossed over to
them and exchanged coffee
and sugar for tobacco. They
were treated firstrate by the
‘rebs,’—but ater they re-
turned, they were arrested
and put in the guard house.
Such acts go to prove that if
the privates had the doings
of this war they would shake
friendly hands and proclaim
peace through this once no-
ble Republic.”
He quoted a poem typical
of the day: “Our flag must be
respected, not {rampled in
