There has been some talk more or less

hama are thoroughly loyal TO President
Whitsitt and 20 the Seminary. Many q
these hold that DR.. Whitsitt In his recent

Gated his position historically. whilst
others think that the question is entirely
unlmportant. and that the extensive con-
tention about Il is utterly useless and
damaging 20 the Baptist cause. IL is be-
ueved and freely stated that the most
liberal contributors 10 tho Seminary are

bled, "the gas meter is machine found- ed on scientific and mathematical prin- ciples. If ever it gets out of order it registers against the company the consumer The man who reads the meter once a month is founded on the same principles. He can make no mis- take in the quantity consumed unless he guesses at it instead of going down cellar, and then he always guesses in favor of the consumer. The clerk who makes out the bills was never known to make mistake in favor of his employ CTS, and the men who receive the bills at the windows are selected for their patience and humility. Nothing can be wrong with the gas-bill-absolutely nothing-and yet the gasman lives to be abused and dies to be forgotten. In my long years of experience 1 have made a reduction on thousands of gas- bills, and I have kept silence while tens of thousands of consumers have abused me personally, but old age has come and I have no friends. Were I to live my life over again I should start out as a professional highway robber, and spare neither man, woman nor child. There would not only be more profit in it for me, but my victims would fear if they did not respect me, and l should escape personal abuse. S
