This also on himself: "One day I was stopped In the street by a lady who asked If her aged father might come in and visit me. 'He Is nearly as old as you,' she said.

We can only say that the change was brought about by public usage. If one were to adhere strictly to the laws of grammar, then one should still address a single person as thou Instead of you, and some people do this yet, but the ordinary custom has become to drop the second person singular, even when only one person Is addressed, and to use the second person plural. There is no law of any kind requiring this. It Is simply the custom.--Exchange. State Bank OF McHENRY Mtmk That Helps Yon Get Ahead* Rit«* of BaptUsi' Immersion is 'unquestionably the most ancient form of Christian baptism. The word "baptism" is derived from the Greek "bapto" or "baptizeo," literally meaning to Immerse, bathe, or wash. Baptism in the Latin or Roman Catholic chtlrch was originally by Immersion. That method prevailed until about the Twelfth century. In some places individual Catholic churches continued to baptize by immersion until only a few hundred years ago. According to the ritual now authorized by the Catholic church, baptism Is [>erformed by laving the candidate's head.--Exchange. ^€carl>y and F o d d e r • • • • : y T. T.
