WE WIN!

To the calm eye which looks from
a philosophic, disinterested distance,
is there any one thing more inex-
plicable than the transport of mui-
titude over victory in play?
Eleven young boys unknown be-
yond the bounds of a campus, meet
with eleven other youngsters from a
sister State for an afternoons game
Fifteen thousand spectators forget IN
the intense excitement of that hour
that there are nations to be governed,
finances to be managed or mouths TO
be fed Five thousand of these have
come with the visiting team. TO no
one of the multitude does there for
the time obtain either the battle of
life or the struggle. for existence.
Every rise or fall brings its whole
hearted joy or misery to each of fif-
teen thousand full beating hearts.
Tomorrow there is the same world
of yesterday. Today, nothing but the
game No detail of tomorrow's work
is changed. No circumstance in the
material affairs of the fifteen thousand
is effected either by victory or de-
feat Yet every throat is in play, tears
fill the eyes of the old men and young.
All-consuming glOat or grief is every
where-because twenty-five young
college boys are having little game.
Surely there is nothing more battling
than the isolated emotion of the spec
tators of young struggle.
Yet the spirit is world-old. 1t means
the survival in man of the determina-
ton to win. 1t is the expression of
time-old pride, Cf the glory of COM
bat. of the supreme joy of knowing
oneself the better man.
Carolinians Wept at Norfolk Thurs
day in an excess of realization. They
had travelled far with hopes uncertain
but with a patriotism that could not
be stilled They followed the course
of the struggle with avid eyes; they
forgot in the moment of victory the
years of defeat; they triumphed like
gentlemen and warriors, gaining in
their satisfaction of peace which lives
only in the doing of a perfect thing!
Carolina won, Let us all be thank
full

SAVED HIS LIFE

ing letter:

key was disappearing. / felt better than

one month L mad no more desire for
whiskey than if l had never tasted it.
1t has been twelve years since | left
there, and / have never tasted Whis-
key, brandy or any other intOXicant,
and never expect to take another
drink. 1t relieved me from all desire
for strong drink or drugs, restored
my nervous system to it's normal con-
dition, and reinstated me to my home,
family and business. | was q physi-
cal, moral and financial wreck when

from all desire for strong drink, am

Thou Shalt Not Bear False Witness.
Newell Dwight Hills.

Thou Shalt Not Bear raise Witness.
Newell Dwight Hills.
The root element here is truth-loV-
ing, truth-speaking and charitable
judgment. This is a coI.rmand against
robbing men of their reputation. Our
age is become very harsh and brutal.
In private life we believe that it is
wrong to libel a man, unless he is
running for office, or is a President,
or governor Or reformer, when, of
course it is perfectly proper to use
barrel of ink to publish statements of
which there is but a little grain of
truth! No man judges an autumn by a
single dark and cloudy morning like
this one. No one judges the great Par
thenon by the rent that the cannon
ball hath made. We make allowances
in looking at an old statue for the
crack made by some soldiers blow.
One wormy apple does not condemn
tree forever and forever. 1t is only
man that misjudges and bears false
witness against his neighbor People
will search out mans career with
lighted candles, find out one bad thing,
lift it up, enlarge it and insist that
that is the man. They Will take one
mistake, one sin, and use it as a stone
with which to sink the youth into an
everlasting abyss. Why, the very sun
has spots on it! The whitest saint has
his dark hours Even Paul would
gladly have forgotten his past. God is
exceeding pitiful and of very tender
mercy. God forgets mans sins; it is
only man who remembers his brother
mans transgressions. For some reason
our proverbs have gone sadly aWry.
Witness this one, speak only good OF
the dead" Why the dead do not care
what you say about them! The pro-
verb ought to read. Speak only good
of the living False witness against
ones neighbor is a species of canni-
balism, a kind of savagery, a form
of barbarity that belongs to the wolf
and the jackal, that bite and rend.
But as for men, "Be ye kind, tender
hearted. forbearing one another, and
forgiving one another, even as God
for Christs sake has forgiven you"
