Municipal Light he said is an Experiment and the desire is to show that the Borough with its own Plant can Light its streets better and cheaper than they were before when the contract for lighting was Given out. If Council goes beyond a reasonable limit however and undertake to flood every Corner with Light it will be impossible to demonstrate a saving and the most important object that the Boron go Hail in View will not be accomplished. He begged no lights be installed until after the expiration of a year from the installation of tie Borough Plant.

Governor Petin Packer yesterday appointed Charles a Wagner of Limestone township to be associate judge of Montour county until the first monday in january 1907. Vice s y. Thompson deceased the appointment seems to meet with Universal approval. Or. Wagner is not Only an intelligent conscientious Man of Broad Aud Liberal ideas but also a substantial and energetic citizen the owner of several of the finest farms in Montour county acquired through ins own efforts or. Wagner will probably take his seat during the special Coort that will be held today. The Rev. Joseph e Guy officiated sunday for the tire to time at the Shiloh reformed Church and preached two eloquent and helpful sermons. Rev. Gays last charge was at 3hep-Herdstown, West Virginia. The dispatch of that place has the following to say when Rev. Gay cams to this City a Prev. Joseph e. Guy who in fitly resigned the pastorate of the reformed Church in shepherds town to accept a Call from Danville left Here yesterday with his wife and after spending some time in Baltimore will take up the work of his new charge. Rev. Or. Guy Aud his wife have some very warm friends in this Community who greatly regret their departure and they will by missed by All our people. We Hope they May find their new Home a congenial and Happy one and assure them they will be remembered Here most kindly. A Rev. Guy is a Young Man with a Fine appearance and a pleasing personality. Tiie Fine weather yesterday brought out Large congregations at both the inborn aug and evening services. Appropriate music was rendered by the choir. Rev. And mrs. Guy both expressed themselves As being very Well pleased with to Weir reception in Danville. At the morning service Rev. Any took As his t Iesue a the example of Christ a preaching ins Sermon from the text Peter 2 21, a for Hereunto were be called because Christ also suffered for us leaving us an example that we Sli Ould follow his Rev. Guy said that christianity is not a Mere code of morals nor an abstract theory of theologians. But it is presented to us in the human form of Jesus Christ the living embodiment of the doctrines which Ile revealed. He is the example for All his followers. It is a false View of christianity when men place Christ so High that they dare not draw near him Aud make their lives the pattern of Christ a life. To so exalt Jesus is to degrade him. It shows an ignorance of his life and character. Jesus in his essential personality is with is As fully and As clearly As he was when he entered the Homes of the Pabli Caus and sinners. We Honor Christ ouly when we make his life his teachings his mind the potent Factor in our lives. Jesus can impart to us nothing so grand nothing so inspiring As his own mind and Only in the degree that we clothe ourselves with his divine excellencies Only in that degree Are we following his Steps. Patient self denial Earnest Endeavor for the glory of god and the salvation of our fellow Meu Hearty co operation with every Effort to Advance the kingdom of god on Earth these prepare us Lor the life that is to come when those who have followed his Steps shall be changed into his likeness. At the evening service Rev. Any took As his text romans 8 9, a now if any Man have not the spirit of Christ he is none of his the theme of his discourse was a the real Rev. Guv said a simple answer to this question a How May professing christians exhibit the spirit of Christ Aud evince that they Are really his would be by heartily imitating his example in efforts to save men and glorify this covers the whole Range of Christian doctrines and Dot. It we have the spirit of Christ we will be earnestly absorbed in doing the will of god. Yet How Seldom it is imagined that to be a Follower of Christ involves the same spirit of self denial that actuates him. Professing christians think too much of present ease and Mere worldly arguments forgetting that with respect to these a the that Tabeth not no his Cross daily and follow eth me can not be my the Joys of Conquest Are the Joys of christians. They must look for conflict Victory Aud triumphant Joys. Having the spirit of Christ involves personal responsibility. Christ never thought of self. He gave no Home in h ave adoration of Angels a throne of glory. Whether the Doty required was easy or difficult it mattered not. Christ never excused self because others were engaged in his work. Unto the end he acted out his own personal responsibility. If All men Felt this Aud this spirit prevailed in their hearts the Dawn of greater conquests for Christ would open up. Each would do his duty and do it now. Parent sunday school teachers Temperance advocates would each do what he could give what he could and do it now. The spirit of Christ also leads one to see his relationship to his master. The Friend of sinners would be the christians Friend. The morning Star would cast the everlasting beams up i on the christians the All sufficient sacrifice should inspire the Christian i to a like self denial. The sweetest of All lives is the life that gives of itself 1 to the encouragement of others.
