To Hon. J. B. Sullivan of De Molnea
was assigned ths memof liU address, and
rarely has a mors eloquent effort been
heard In Council Bluff. Taking tor hts
subjeot. "Doing Good for Others," Mr. Sulli
van spoke In part as follows:
" 'That the man of Ood may be perfect,
furnished to every good work.' The read
Ing of the sortptures contains passage after
passage with reference to man. It Indicate
clearly that' man was the handiwork of
Ood In which the Omnipotent 1 Is welt
pleased. We read of the good and perfect
man, ths man whose days will, be an any;
tha man of strength and Joy. ' tt remained
for the Apostle Paul to give expression to
the true criterion of man that he should
be good and perfect and furnished to every
good work. In his epistle to his beloved
Timothy he Is writing of ths ttme In which
he lived, warning him to shun the convert
satlon of those who swerved from ths
truth, describing the character of those
with whom he dwelt, and Informing him of
his approaching death and. wishing his
presence, and then . summed .It - all up la
these beautiful words: That the maa of
Ood may be perfect, furnished to every
good . work.' As we, oomteraplate the
thought of thla gathering, what , mors
beautiful scene can' animate thla hour .than
the memory of the good and perfect manf
"Here at this period of the year when the
sober hues of winter have taksa the place
of the delicate tints of fall, when spring
and summer have given' away ths rife that
onoe flourished and all nature Is dark and
dreary; when th church has laid aside its
vestments of Joy and plaoed on tta altar
the purple robe of mourning, calling upon
her children to prepare for the oomlng of
the Messiah. It is Indeed opportune that
at such a time man should stop and Join
hands with his brother and thing, of these
gone before. It Is ths one hour when the
heart In the fullness of sorrow proclaims
the good and perfect man. It Is ths one
hour when sympathy and love- erystalllses
Into Joy and goodness all th nobler feel
ings of our nature. The good aad perfect
man ever haa been and aver will be, the
orownlng act of human destiny. W have
a hope, and we have an Ideal. To' live up
to the hope, and be. worthy of the ideal,
ha been the animating thought of ages.
Tt Is not the records of life spent In the
accumulation of wealth, that will answer
the question of ths apostle. It Is not the
record of a life given to control (he des
tinies of nation, .or to bring within our
grasp th profits of th hour, that answer
the proposition so eloquently announced
by th great martyr. It la the good accom
plished for other . that will remain un
tarnished and uncancelled a the so roll of
ttme records the doings of tha day.
'This afternoon, what more magm lft cent
tribute can be given of ths charity of ths
human heart, than ths object of this meet
ing. In every city of our U$d.' yea. In
every land claiming allegiance to our flag,
slmllsr exercises are being held. In which
a great organisation whose flag Is Ameri
can, and upon whose altar rest the book
of life, meets to remember those who have
gone In advance; no klndtter, sweeter
thought can be had thaa to think of him
wha yes tarda ws by our aide In the full
neas of life, and who, today from some
pearly gate unseen by human eyes, unite
with the spirit of this occasion." ,

the fact that a reward of $100 for Impure
candles made by the National Confec

for years without the reward ever having
to be paid. There are cheap candles, but
