who is afraid or ashamed to stand
for his cause is utterly unworthy. We
have said before and we are going to
say again that the person who leaves
his own church and joins another be-
cause it promises personal advantage
earns. and generally receives. the con-
tempt of the church he leaves and the
one to which he goes: and likewise
the man who will compromise his own
principles, which may happen to be
unpopular, as a stroke of policy.
makes himself the laughing stock OF
the community and fails entirely to
attain the end he seeks. The more
unpopular the principles q man holds
may be, the greater the opportunity
for showing himself every inch Il nan.
The weakling yields, but the man of
strength braces himself against the
tempest, and like the oak tree that
strikes its roots deeper because it is
rocked by the storm. the opposition
that he meets only serves to harden
his moral muscle and make him more
of man. Polite and courteous he
ought always to be- and kindly al
fectionatc toward all men, but cou"-
tesy and craven cOwardice are very
different things.
1T is claimed by the Russians, both
in that country and i'm this, that tho
tide of sympathy and sentiment is
turning in their favor. Perhaps 50,
but we see no reason for it. the
cause of the Japanese is as lust rs
when the fight began but some folks
cannot stay on any side long at a
time.

And while the Corporation Com

The Presbyterians come next to the
Moravians lin their gifts to foreign
missions. This is a crown of glory
that other denominations may well
strive to obtain. The foreign mission
spirit is the very spirit of Christ.
The News and Observer of last sun
day contained a very fine sketch of
Methodism. We do not know who the
author was but he showed consum-
mate skill as a descriptive writer. We
honor the old Methodist pioneers who
did not parley with flesh and blood,
but went bravely forward in the face
Of q frowning world, and smiled at
Satans rage. They toiled and suffered
and denied themselves, but they built
n highway for those who followed
them. They were not SO cultured nor
so elegant as some of the brethren
who sneered at them. but they went
after the folks and got them. The
world honors men who do things.
The strongest men of Wake Forest
College have been the poor boys. and
this is true of every other college; but
the spirit of the fraternity is against
the boy who must battle for his bread
and for his education at the same time.
In fact. as a general rule such boys
arc ruled out of the fraternity which
soon oyershadows the society and be-
comes the dominant factor in the col
lege life. OF course the advocates of
the fraternities will say we are ignor-
ant. but we have had that charge
thrown at US until we are used to it.
We may remark in passing that our
information rs TO the fraternity in
tluence comes from pretty good au-
thority. If these organizations are al
lowed to fasten themselves on the
college life the glory of Wake For
est will be thing of the past 1t will
not only destroy the influence of the
societies but il will transform the de-
mocracy and honest worth will no
longer be the basis of a boys standing.

Letter to chas. 3. Townsend,
Barre, vt.

Dear Sir. But few OF the men who sell
the hundred different paints in the mar
ket know much about them. All Devoe
agents have state chemists certificate
telling just what it's made of; they know
a good deal, not only about Devoe but the
rest: we see that they do We buy every
paint, that has any sale, and analyze it.
Our agents find out all about it.
When we know what paint Is made-of,
we know how 1t will act; we know how
far it goes, and how long It wears
Devoe Is the standard; call It 100. The
best Of the rest is about 10; the worst
about 25; the rest are between.
Bnt the men. who sell them, don't know
any better. They know what the maker
tells them. That Is they know that he
tells them. They don't know whether he
tells them the truth or not.
The business Is not conducted on knowi-
edge: the less they know, the more com
Portable they are Yours truly,

pected At N EAriy pste.

Consulting engineers, Arthur P. Davis
and George Y. Wisner, attached TO the
Office OF Professor Newell. chief engineer
OF the reclamation service arrived at
Montroee Tuesday for the purpose OF
making Neutrality-suspicious. regarding
every possible phase OF the great Gunni-
son tunnel irrigstiDg proposition.
A big reception was held at the OF era
houee 10 Montrose Wednesday evening
in honor OF the committee. About $50
special train which had been chartered
especially for the occasion, to attend the
reception.
The crowd from this place was accom-
panied by the Delta band. The train
consisted Of cars and while not com
pIetely filled when leaving here the
crowd that poured on at OiatLe put
standing room at a premium. The opera
house vas jammed and many were
unable to even secure standing room.
During the evening II. NJ. Hogg
made short speech and the members
OF the commission explaining just
what the irrigation act for the reclama-
ton OF arid land required thoee living
under these projects TO do. they stated.
for the first time. that the project has
been found 10 every way feasible. and
that il the PROPER chauGes were made
regarding signers. within 30 days. that
actual construction work would be un
der-way by next fall.
The only change to be N ide is that
no signer can secure water for more
than l6O acres. while many OF those who
have already subscribed have consider
able more. This can. however, be rem
edied. PARTIES having more than l6O
acres can. by skiing a deed OF trust, OF
all over this amount to the Association.
put in their full acreage.
II these parties cannot dispose OF all
lanas above the lSO acres, by the time
the tunnel is completed. then the Asso-
citation will have the right to sell at
public auction such land, the money OF
same to be turned back to owner.

They explained that q shorter route
had been selected which will make the
project cost 100000 instead OF 5000
700 as heretofore estimated. The tun-
nel proper is to be let in either one or
two contracts, while the building OF the
canals will be divided up so as to give
farmers and those in this section 4
