Mr. Chitcherin made another at tempt to gain the floor but was re fused the privilege by the chairman, who Insistex the discussion had gone far enough and ruled that the agenda must Im? followed. The keynote of the conference was sounded by Mr. Lloyd George when he outlined the "only conditions on which wo can consent to deal with others." this supposedly referring, specifically to the Russians.

Rut It was In his own home, where he was known lest, that thn sterling qualities of his character were most evident. No one ever crossed the threshold but they frit that one resid ed there who npprocluted hht that' sacred word 'home' means. Our beloved brother realized that his Illness was serious, and faced death rulmly. Hnrlng the last days of his life the assurances lw gave of his simple trust in Gml wero comforting t his bereaved family. It was my pleasure to Ih with him often: and one night, when the physician thought he could not last until morning, he quoted tt few words of that old hymn Just As I Am." Then I tried to sing It for him. Commanding all the strength he had. und by sheer force of a suisTtor will, he controlled his breathing and joined me In singing several verses. When we had sung: Just as I am. thou wilt receive. Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, rellern; Pecause thy promise I believe, k Lamb of God, I come! He said, 'Ameo! Amen!' Again, he used the words of Christ on the cross: "Father, into Thy hands I commend my spirit.' "On one occasion the nurse heard bim talking and went into his room, asking If he had called. He replied. t) no. I was Just talking to my best friend. "His faith and trust were implicit, hence this is a glorious Earner for his soul. The corruptible has put on In corruption, the mortal has been clothed upon with Immortality, and mortality has been swallowed up of life." Thn profusion of flowers sent from far and near acclaimed the fact that Mr. Roberts leaves a host of friends to miss him, and to share the grief of the bereaved family. , S Notice Modern Woodmen take notice: Mr J- Lawrence will Is? the clerk and give out receipts while I am away nt corner Main and Fir streets. 17 A.
