There has been a lot Of laughing
over young John D. Rockefeller's as
sertion that what the poor need is
sympathy rather than money. But,
after all, it Is not such a very laugh
able matter. 1t Is pregnant with
wholesome truth. It might seem to the
unthinking that II sympathy is what
the poor need, they must have plenty
of 1t. Sympathy seems cheap, and so
much easier to give than money. But
the fact Is that the poor do need
sympathy, and that they get precious
little. Sympathy is not more easy
to give than money. It Is the hardest
thing in the world to give genuinely,
and the most helpful when so given.
Can any sane mind imagine that it Is
easy for young Rockefeller, born and
raised in the midst Of more money
than he can count, to put himself into
real understanding Of any sympathy
with the struggles, privations, suffer
ings. disappointments and despair that
comes of want Of money? 1t Is a
hard thing to do, even when one sim
| cerely tries. And few would try It,
Few would enter into such unpleas-
ing study. Most rich people are con-
tent to spend their money for their
| own enjoyment, leaving the poor to
live their unknown lives as best they
can. Some other rich people blindly
give sums Of money now and then for
( Hz hot
or to flip their own pride of superior
ity, not knowing or caring where the
money goes or what purposes for good
or i'll 1t accomplishes. 1t Is far easier
to give money thus than 1t Is to give
sympathy. for sympathy involves thor,
ough understanding of the conditions
of the poor. of their aspirations, their
real needs and their possibilities
Sympathy is not mere pity. It is sou
cSmpanionship. Sympathy does not
separate itself from material helpful
ness. Money goes with it freely anc
wisely. But the real treasure is the
sympathy, not the money, just as the
real soul Of friendship lies not in acts
but in feeling. When the feeling IL
right the rest follows naturally. As
Stunning that young Rockefeller Is sin
cere in his belief, he is to be en-
couraged in 1t and helped in his eff
forts to extend 1t to other rich men

the beneficiary. The Daughters of
the Confederacy had collected 1000
toward the cost when the Southern
Educational Congress, at a meeting
held a year ago, offered to contribute
half of the additional $4,000 which was
needed. This left only $4,000 to be
provided. and that fund is now practi,
cally completed.

Europe is frequently called the Old
World, but this does not mean that the
governments there are old. On the
contrary, some Of them are new.
France has been republic for little
more than thirty years. The German
Empire and united Italy are of about
the same age, whereas Belgium is
proud of the fact that 1t is approaching
the seventy-flfth anniversary of its Sc
cession fFem the Netherlands. Ar
engagements are making for celebrat-
ing the anniversary in 1905. A fair
is to be held In Liege In honor of the
occasion, King Leopold will add new
wing to his Brussels palace, and other
public buildings will be rushed to COM
pletion In order to make the capital at
tractive to visitors.

Five more States are to be honored
in the navy. The battleships authoriz-
ed by Congress are to be named after
Idaho, Kansas, Minnesota, Mississippi
and Vermont. The navy has already
named thirty-four ships after States.
When the FIVE just authorized by Con
gress shall be atioat there will remain
unused the names Of only six States
The Navy Department consequently
intends to ask Congress to change the
law which requires State names to be
given to battleships. 1t would like a
new Constitution and another Cum
herland, to mention only two ships that
have made history.

Perhaps you never heard Of John
Schooling, Jr. He is worth knowing
Down in Mayking, KY, the women
smile at him and the men are glad
to clasp his hand. That is because the
public Is always ready to pay tribute
to bravery and honest worth. School
ing Is an engineer, and a good one,
It means q good deal to be an engineer
1t means more to run locomotive
ON q mountain railway. where the
crew is always within speaking dis
lance of death. SchooliHg's train was
being made up in the yards, and II
got away from the crew and dashed
down the mountain side. There was
passenger train coming at full speed
on the single track. You couldn't
have blamed the engineer If he had
jumped. Life Is sweet. Few monu'
ments are bui1ded to the men who have
met death under their engines. But
these men who wear their lives out
at the throttle are naturally brave
Tney do not measure duty by the
standard of dollars. lime and again
they have been roasted, crushed, torn
and broken, simply because of de-
sire to save lives, no matter how great
the personal sacrifice. They do not
jump. Schooling didn't jump. He
hung on to the throttle. He used every
art Of his craft to lessen the speed of
his train. lie blew =. hundred blasts
Of the whistle. and just when horror
seemed inevitable somebody threw a
switch. the runaway train shot onto
siding and the passenger train went
whizzing by. A moment later greasy
hero was down by his machine. filling
cups with oil, looking for hot boxes
and doing the things that are done
daily by 10000 other engineers. A
reward? Yes, there is to be one. John
Schooling, Jr., is to have better posi-
ton, fatter pay envelope, and an
easier time. But you can't buy .-ero-
ism or pay for 1t. 1t Is spontaneous
1t comes from the heart. 1t is gift,
and not once in a thousand times is
there a thought of personal benefit
when a man risks his life for others.
John Schooling, Jr., has done well.
