Bishop's Letter Quoted. The resolution criticising Bishop Nuelsen and Editor Wallace was in- troduced by the Rev. Frank D. Sheets, district superintendent of the Jollet district. After a brief but heated dis- cussion it wss passed, following the reading of part of the objectionable article by the Rev. Mr. Sheets. The part objected to reads'as fol- lows: "War Is no Sunday school picnic and no dress parade. War is hell, pure and simple. And when an army is waging war it has no use for, kid gloves. Unspeakable barbarities have been committed by the glorious allies of England, the Russian Cossacks; dark deeds of vile treason have been done by French and Belgian civilians upon thei Instigation of "officlati. Se^ vere punishment has been meted out by the German army." "The Methodist church stands for absolute neutrality," said'the Rev. Mr. Sheets, "and I do not think we should let the publication of such a breach of our country's neutrality go unnoticed In a Methodist publication. We can- not blame Bishop Nuelsen so much Tor the Writing of theletter, because he is a German and has keen living in Germany, but we should condemn the publication of the letter." Bishop McDowell put the Question to a vote, and the resolution wss passed. Its exact wording could not be obtained. ♦ May Change Boundaries.

P; Wvst had been returned to Ev- anston. * No one bad any doubt but that he would be returned, but they felt easier when officially informed ot his reappointment.

The ad- dress of the evening was delivered by Rev. James K. Shields of New Jersey, his subject being, "The Hobson Amendment to the Constitution of the United States," providing for the pro- hibition of the manufacture snd sale of Intoxicating liquors. In spesking of the progress of prohibition to gen- eral, Rev. Shields said that over half of the one hundred and two counties In Illinois are now prohibition terri- tory. Virginia snd West Virginia have just voted dry and four other states are now considering the proposition of abolishing such destructives to mankind. Jttit now the time seems right to push the amendment to the national constitution, but It requires three- quarters of the states in the union to enact it. ±__: ; : l _±r WILMETTE WHEEL TAX LAW VALID o. |n^n70ak Park Cuyler Avefioe C S.
