The Fireman's Dance

The Fireman's dance Thursday
night was one of the pleasant
events of the season and one long
to be remembered. The dances
given by the fire boys are the pop
ular kind, and the young people
are not chilled by any restraint of
question of social prestige or dress
suit, but all come in to have a Jolly
time, and they have it. The dance
Thursday night was no exception,
judged from this standard of sue.
cess. Between 40 and 50 numbers
were sold, and the fire boys, be-
sides having splendid time were
nothing out.
So successful was the event that
many of those present insisted that
another dance be given soon. The
dance was conducted in an orderly
manner, the floor smooth, the MT
sic and the prompting good, and
the welfare and happiness of the
dancers were carefully looked after.
1t was truly most enjoyable af-
fair. The Royal Neighbors served
splendid and appetizing supper
at small charge, which was highly
appreciated.

On the 22d of this month at
Washington, D. c., President
Roosevelt introduced Rev. Charles
Wagner, the author, to large au-
dience at the Lafayette opera house.
The president presented Mr.. Wag-
per to the audience in the follow
ing words:
This is the first and will be the
only time during my presidency
that | shall ever introduce, AMI I
am more than glad to do it, in this
instance, because if there is one
book which I should like to have
read as a tract and also, which is
not invariably true of tracts, as an
interesting tract, by all Our people,
it The Simple Life" written by
Mr.. Wagner. There are other
books which he has written of
which we can gain great good, but
know of no other book written OF
recent years, whether here or
abroad, which contains SO much
that we of A nerica ought to take
to our hearts as is contained in The
Simple Life I like the book be-
cause it 1oes not merely preach to
the rich and does not merely
preach to the poor. 1t is very
easy thing to address a section of
the community in reprobation of
the forms of vice to which it is not
prone. What we need to have i'm
pressed upon US is that it is not
usually the root principle of the
vice that varies with variation in
social conditions, but that it is the
manifestation of the vice that va
rles; and Mr.. Wagner has well
brought out the great fundamental
truth that the brutal arrogance of
rich man looks down upon a poor
man because he is poor, and the
brutal envy and hatred felt by a
poor man toward a rich man mere
ly because he is rich are at the bot
tom the manifestation OF the same
vice. The arrogance that looks
down in one case, the envy that
mates in another, are really exhibi-
tons of the same base and unlovely
spirit that happens to be in one
case in different surroundings from
what it is in another case. The
same kind of man who would be
arrogant in one, is precisely the
Alnd OF man who would be envious
and filled with hatred in the other.
Inc ideal should be just and gener-
GUS, the broad-minded man who is
incapable of arrogance if rich as he
is OF malignant envy and hatred if
poor.

of The Simple Life,' because that
has been the book that has ap-
pealed to me.
"Now, word with special refer
ence to his address to this audience,
to the Young Mems Christian ssso-
citation: The profound regard
which I have always felt for those
responsible for the work of the
Young Mems Christian associations
and the Young Women's Christian
associations is largely because they
have practically realized or at least
have stciven practically to realize
the ideal of adherence to the text
which runs: BE ye doors of the
word and not hearers only If
you come here with only the idea
of passing a pleasant afternoon and
then go home and do not actually
practice some of Mr.. Wagner's
preachings, then small is the use
of your coming. 1t is not the
slightest use to hear the word if
you do not try to put it into effect
afterwards. The Young Men 5
Christian associations have accom-
plished so much because those who
have managed them have tried
practically to do their best in bring
ing about what is expressed in the
phrase, The Fatherhood of God
and brotherhood of men, We can
act individually or by associations.
I intend to illustrate by couple of
examples what I mean by a man
acting individually, and what I
mean by man acting in associa-
tions with his fellows. I hesitated
whether I would use, as I shall use,
the names of the persons whom I
meant, but l came to the conclu-
sion that I would, because the
worth of an example consists very
largely in an understanding that
the example is real one.
Il have been interested for a
number of years in the working OF
the Civic club in New York, which
has been started and superintended
by Norton Goddard. 1t is club
on the East Side of New York City,
the range of whose membership in
cludes a big district extending
from Lexington avenue to the East
river. Mr.. Goddard realized that
such work can be done to the best
advantage only upon condition OF
there being hearty sympathy among
those doing it. There are a great
many people so made in this world
(I think most of us come under the
category that they would resent
being patronized about as much as
being wronged. Great good can
never be done if it is attempted in a
patronizing spirit. Mr.. Goddard
realized that the work could be
done efficiently only on condition OF
getting in close and hearty touch
with the people through whom and
with whom he was to work. In
consequence this Civic club found,
and it has gradually extended its
operations until now the entire
club membership of 5000 or 4,ooo
men practically form a committee
of betterment in social and civic
life: a committee sprea l throughout
that district, each member keeping
a sharp lookout over the fortunes
of all his immediate ueighbors.

Of Arithmetic in the Schools" Prof.
Hall advocates doing away 10 great

ing in the teaching of arithmetic, pre-
fering TO have the pupil taught TO solve
his problems by mental diagraming and
figuring. The pupil learns to depend
too much on written work, and, when
he comes TO the more practical use of
arithmetic, without these diagrams he
is helpless. Teach the individual
scholar if you wish the best results"

views.
