him who pays the interest and divi-

road stocks and bonds now? Un-
doubtedly the people who travel over
the railroads and who consume prod
ucts shipped over them. But govern
ment credit is better than the credit
OF any private corporation. no matter
how big 1t may be; hence, Uncle Sam

His daily life is one of honest toll;

And emulates the Christ-life every day.
Who is Christian? He whose soul
is clean
Or thoughts unworthy and of actions

Who lives as Jesus lives: the golden
rule
He NAL es his teacher, and the world

Behind him lie the centuries of wrong;
He aids the weak and helps to crush
the strong;
He sees on every hand the power

He breaches right and truth as his
sole creed.
Who is Christian? He who tills the
soil
OF sin, and asks no guerdeon for his

And has the sunshine of an honest
face.
To him the rich and poor are all the

Of slavery and brutality that the present
day knows rnoth1ng about. $685.; II y tts
This action BY the school authorities
has provoked Widespread discussion.
Some cay these officials have acted wisely.
They argue that it Is O waste Of time
for lad to read about evil conditions
that have ceased to exist, especially when
q reader Is likely to estinats these condf-
lions as blacker than they really were. A
new South Is springins up. New ideals
