GORHAM.

The Gorham Normal school enjoyed an
other rich treat in their Thursday lecture
course yesterday, when the Rev. DR.
Blanchard OF Portland gave an address
on the subject "Enriohing the
Memory" The lecture was replete with
questions illustrative OF the points made
The following is brief outline Of the
address The speaker emphasized the
idea that we ought to revere our minds
because In the words OF David 1--WE are
created little lower than God" yet he
would have us remember that the
great minds of the world are few. The
poets and prophets have had greater
thoughts and given them nobler express
sion than can any OF us. The following
three reasons we're presented for enriching
our memories, first that we may enlarge
and ennobie our thoughts, second that
we may enlarge our vocabulary, and
third we may use our store to help
others. The last point presented was the
necessity OF acquiring the power to give
natural expression to memory gems. To
illustrate the points of his address the
speaker in closing delighted his audience
py reolting three beautiful selections Of
differing types. lie speaker showed
wise discrimination in selecting his SUBJ
ject for the two reasons that his audience
was composed OF those whose memories
most readily add to their stores and of
those who still have many years to make
use Of their acquisitions. The entire
address was not only pleasure to the
senses of his audience but tonic to their
wills. Principal Corthell in thanking
DIR. Blanchard for the pleasure and profit
of the hour told the school that they had
not only heard words OF counsel and in
spiration but that they had heard them
from one who In himself illustrate d
every point he had made.

Coming in from the warehouse that

Miss Anna and Frank still there, and
standing together at the window; then

looked rather subdued and thoughtful.
"He deserves it," Frank said, "and l

She turned like a flash and said:
"Why are you glad for my sake?"
"Well, because it means so much to
you"
"And why should it mean so much
to me?" she demanded

then said softly, 81 was in love, but
not with him."
Her eyes were gazing dreamily out
of the window, but there was some
thing in her face that made Frank
take a sudden bound toward her and
cry out: "Anna, [ have a right to
know. Who was it that you was in
love with ?"
Then Miss Anna dropped her CO.
quettives, turned those beautiful eyes
to his, and held out her hands. "It

The Ascendency Of. Hope.

"Who bids me hope, and in that charming word
Has peace and transport to my soul restor'd"
By many of my readers, perhaps no
word is spoken with more import than
the word hope, and is often the con-
ISOLATION by which he abides his time
with some degree of patience and
peace of mind. What a cheering
thought it is to the weary and down.
hearted! What courage it gives him,
what patience, what strength to en-
dure. [ can imagine nothing more
dreadful than its loss-loss, in the
general acceptance of the term, for
hope, in various degrees, is innate in
all mankind of whatever rank or
station.
Hope, in its general usage, 1 would
describe as gift of nature which has
its foundation on the virtues faith and
love; the desire for good: the wishing
for, expecting, but yet doubling. It
is the forerunner of every endeavor.
Without this active agent, we can con-
ceive of no activity existing or per-
sisting.
While it carries most force in Chris
tianity, many characteristic examples
before the Christian era are also in
evidence. Amorc such, need but re-
fer to Socrates, Plato and Aristotle.
Socrates, whose ever aspiring soul
reached the greatest height ever at
tanned without the aid of Christianity,
or the promise of a hereafter, but
aided only by his intuition and reason,
clung to hope of future life while
the deadly poison was rapidly convey
ing him to eternity.
Plato hoped to find ultimate good in
wisdom and scared into the dizzy
heights of metaphysics where the
human race yanishes in a mist of
atoms
Aristotle bends his great energy in
another directioa and hopes to find the
truth in the pu.s activity of universal
abstract thoughS.
In our day we see the farmer enter
tanning the hopes Of harvest and
Herewith encouraged to till the earth
and sow seed. We observe the student

as he delves into volume after volume
with hopes of obtaining knowledge.
We see the business man stock-up,
with anticipations of profit in the
sale of the merchandise; the specu-
lator as he stakes his wealth, in ex-
pectancy of doubling it.
The influence of hope is confined to
no class or sect of society, nor to the
philosophy of learned men; and may
be characteristic in the life of the
most humble plebeian or exalted king.
Through hope, Napoleon Boneparte,
notwithstanding his blebeian birth,
placed himself at the head of great
empire. By it, Washington, Jefferson
and the other trainers of our urgovernment
reared this grand republic. AS with
force, it impelled Moses, Lycurgis and
Solon of old. Thus its authors are
establishing liberty, equality and fra
ternity.
With religion hope is in its strong
hold; and were no other thought than
abstract hope interviewer with re-
ligion, that in itself would bring a
large following, for man is ever ready
to flee to the solace of hope. In the
words of Goldsmith:
Hope, like cleaning taper light
Adorns and cheers our way;
And still, as darker grows the night
Emits brighter ray.
Many men. animated by divine hope,
have staked their lives for the emanci-
patton of the human good from medi-
eval thraldom. OF such, 1 would
mention Huss, in Bohemia; Calvin, in
France; and Luther, in Germany. But
following the introduction of printing
and the distribution of copies of the
Bible, it sprang in triumph before the
world, and like star set in the firma-
ment of our lives is ever leading US
onward and upward.
To hope, we may attribute the fur
therance of much of the religious
federation, political freedom, intellec-
tual progress and elevated morals that
bless our people. Every reform and
government is indebted to it. Make
man hopeful and you have conferred
to him one or the greatest blessings of
life. Withhold it and he becomes de-
jected- becomes deranged men,

of a failure as all its predecessors had
been. Then the present system was
put into effect; and it is, though far
from what it should be, vastly superior
to all previous ones. 1t is more hu-
name system. A criminal is not classed
as one of an inferior species, but is
given a chance to obtain education. to
reform and become a good citizen.
The result has been an astonishing
decrease in crime; and of those COM
mitted ingenuity has taken the place
of brutality.
The social conditions of today are
hardly such as to eradicate crime.
Wealth is the popular idol. He who is
possessed of large fortune wields
power as great as that of some old
time monarch. 1t is notorious fact
that in this country rich man can
buy everything from immunity from
arrest, to seat in the senate.
TO reach this envied position, there
are those who will not hesitate to COM
NIT any crime. In the struggle for
wealth and power amidst the fierce
heat of competition, the weakest are
ruthlessly trampled under foot. Food
products are adulterated with deadly
poisons, sacrificing valuable lives to
the greed for gain. Rather than meet
defeat on the commercial battlefield
men will construct ramshackle tene-
ments, veritable death traps, will flood
the market with shoddy clothing, the
product of sweatshops, will endanger
the lives of their fellow men in a
thousand ways if thereby they can
reap profit.
We do not make it as an assertion,
but we believe the true solution of the
criminal problem is universal social
democracy. Not quite so utopian as
that depicted in "Looking Backward"
but perfect enough to do away with
the "bulls" and the "bears" of Wall
street. To do away with the slums of
great cities where children are raised
amid an atmosphere of crime and sem
suallty, in ignorance, without any
ideals or aspirations except those of
the lowest kind. A social democracy
that will assure to each inhabitant a
sufficient stipend. But to che who will
not work, neither shall he eat," that is
if he is capable of working. A system
that will enable each one to retire, if
desirable, after contributing a just
share toward the wealth of the state.
Much more could be said, but we
will close our article simply stating
that the above named condition of
affairs will hardly appear in this
generation; but we believe the day is
not so far distant when "equality, fra
ternity" shall be fact, instead of
hackneyed quotation. LEO.
