marvel at the foresight which
laid the foundation of a western
empire so admirably that unex-

compare Washington as he sheath

of the same year attained his ma
jority and celebrated it with great
pomp. Clothes and titles have
their glamour; but glamour
passes. The quiet, unobstrusive
man, whose sword was clean and
heart also, is already more to the
world than all the four Georges
together. Our leader did not
have a cometic career of splendid
wickedness. His was a gray life
beside such one. Yet his told,
tells, and will forever tell the
value of moderation in all things
and devotion TO an ideal. In
this is a moral for us all. OF his

"Whether tonight or twenty
years hence makes no difference.

Good Providence" And when
the struggles of death were upon
him, he said, "Doctor, die hard,

thrown upon the mercy of the

who, from misfortune or neglect
of natural guardians, are deprived
of the happiness of home life,
should be taken away from their
old environments and placed
where they can make new ties,
and where they may learn by ex-
perience what are the daily cares
and joys of happy family life.
There can be no nObler charitable
work than to provide a home for
a poor child, in which it may re-
ceive kind care and moral train.

pious friend or neighbour to open
his or her door to one of our boys
or girlsg We are extremely anx-
ious, sir, to secure homes for

Hon. VIM. j. Bryan, the late
Democratic candidate for PreSi-

fOrrelul writer on national topics.
His latest penciling in the n. y.
JOWRal is entitled, "What
Next" an interesting treatise on
the Philippine situation, viewed
from the standpoint of an anti
imperialist and anti militariSt.
A few of his points in synopsis
are:
That the ratification of the
treaty has not terminated or set

the future of the Philippines;
that neither the President nor
Congress have yet outlined pol.

ends Spain'S sovereignty, it has

the door to independence, it
really makes easier the establish
ment of such a government in
that far away land; that Con.
gress Shonld pass resolution at
once promising self government
to the Filipinos and pledging the
United States to protect them
from outside interference.
Continuing further, he observes
that as we have purchased the
islands for a large sum of money
and have to practically go in with
fire and sword to claim our own
right to disputed title, that we
have a right to deal with the peo-
pie and islands as we see fit. and
