Therefore, be it Besolced. Tliat by his death this Lodge has lost one of its most efficient members, the- commuuity one of its best citizens, and the church one of its most dovoted and zealous members, liesolved, I’liat in his life and character were eminentiy blended all the morals and so cial virtues which teml to make life useful and happy ; therefore it becomes us as Masons, citizens and Christians fo earnestly endeavor to follow his noble example and ever cherisli his memory. Besolced, 'rimt whilst we greatly deplore our loss, and feel that his place can never be fitlial, yet it becomes us to liumbly submit to the vi’ill of Him who doeth all tilings well. liesolved, That we tender our deepest sym pathy to the bereaved family of our departed Brother in tlii.s their great affiiction ; that a cojiy of tiiesc resolutions bo spread upon the record of the Lodge, and a copy sent to the Biblical Becorder and Orphans’ Friend for publication, and also to tlie family of our de- cea.scd Brother.

Tluit St. John’s College shall be made an asylum for the protection, training and education of indigent orphan cliil- dren. 2. That this Grand Lodge will appropriate $ annually for A distinguished author says: I resolved, when I was a child, never to use a word which I could not pronounce before my mother without otfending lier.” He kept his resolution, and became a pure- minded, noble, • honored gentle man. His rule and example are worthy of imitation. Boys readily learn a class of low, vulgar words and expres sions, vvliich are never heard in respectable circles. The utmost care on the part of parents will scarcely prevent it. Of course we cannot think of girls being so much exposed to the peril We cannot imagine a decent girl us ing words she would not give ut terance to before her father and mother. Such vulgarity is thought by some boys to be ‘smart,’ the ‘next thing to swearing,’ and j’et ‘not so wicked.’ But it is a habit which leads to profanity, and fills the mind with evil thoughts. It vulgarizes and degrades the soul, and prepares the way for many of the gross and fearful sins which now corrupt society. Young reader, keep your mouth free from impurity and your ‘tongue from evil,” for ‘out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.’ WILMISGTON & WELDON RAIL EOAH MAIL TllAINS.
