AN ABLE ADDRESS
synopsis of Rev. = L Lotz's Address
Before the Students of the En-
poria Business College
Last Night

The students of the Emporia Business
College had the pleasure aud profit last
Tuesday of listening to very able ad-
dress on Political Economy" by Rev.
r. L. LotZ. He spoke Of God as being
the greatest economist in the universe.
God never puts forth more power Than
is necessary, and be never performs
miracle when he can accomplish his
purposes by natural mems. Christ
taught the great lesson of 'cost and com
pensation." Cost is the father and com
pensation is the mother of progress
Everything costs something, and most
of the meanness in the world comes from
trying 10 get something for nothing.
God has commissioned nature 10
pay men for everything he
does for Fer Expenditure
and compensation are the great motions
of the world Man Is constantly ex-
pending his forces upon the earth ADD
the earth as faithfully rewards his la
hors. That which costs nothing is
worth nothing. y nations prosperity
depends upon her paying for what she
gets, and The same is true of an Individ-
uai. Man gives and gets, and gets oaly
by giving; giving Alright will not impoy-
erish hin. If man wants learning he
must pay for 1t. The first thing we have
to exchange for wealth Is time, and he
who wastes it wastes the best gift
| of God. The second thing man posses
ses IS vitality aud like time it can be ex-
loss The third possession of man is
ease, and it must be sacrificed 10 obtain
the highest coed. No expenditure of
any of these possessions, honestly made,
can fail To bring compensation. It's
| not economy to give all fer a moments
| pleasure, yet str giness is net economy.
The hardest les on the student has 10
| learn is 10 labor aud wait for the result
Economy is the harvest when waste
| brings strength, ami The death of one
ter Expenditure on those ibings which
are TO sustain moitiltY, education
and homes ty, are mothers of
economy. Finally, give and
get, sacrifice and win, expend and grow
rich, help. and thus be helped are the
lessons of tue lecture These are the
first lessons 10 be learned. in order 10
social, individual and national progress.
God puts Us al on 4 business footing
with himself, and SAYS. Help Me and
| viii help you" No man "wnts an
other anything unless he earns il. The
world owes NO man living Do some
: thing aud live, or Do nothing aud die,

nations
