New Ensland's Negro Poet.

To the genius Of singer OF allen blood
who is not yet in his thirtieth year, the
spirit of New England owes no slight rec
ognition William Stanley Braithwaite is
In a certain sense the rara avis among
our real bards. OF full negro blood, he
has yet entered the high tournament of
song and borne away the prize, among a
race that have been slow enough TO hail
his compeers Born in British Guiana,
Mr.. Braithwaite has lived an his life in
Boston, and here amidst the only genuine
literary tradition OF America, he has
woven his songs. In the thin volume
nrst bay leaf plucked from the slopes of
the sacred Hill-surely he has given I'M
questionable evidence of his true calling.
His work has been hailed by general as
sent as the most unquestionable evidence
OF the genuine lyrical spirit that has yet
appeared from one OF his race in our
modern era. Mr.. Braithwaite's second
book, with the loyalty which is the chief
characteristic OF his race, will reflect
directly certain phases of the life and
character of New England.-[Joseph

A Chicago Electrician Makes Ascent Of
$500 Feet with Infested Ship.

With the daring of a man who faces
death for the mere excitement OF It.,
Horace b. Wild, an electrician OF Chi
cago. for the first time in his life made
flight Dec II in an airship. He scared
to a height of $500 feet above the ground.
After a series of thrilling experiences
he returned to the earth safely three miles
from the place where he started on his
trip In machine which never had been
tested before.
The trip through the air was made
under difficulties. Wild's greatest peril
was the danger OF losing his hold on the
machine on account of the cold Twice
his numb fingers slipped from their grasp
Of the frame Of the ship and twice he
caught himself by hooking his heels into
a groove in the cross beams. Once the
engine operating the propeller stopped be-
cause the supply of gasoline was ex-
hausted. Realizing that he was going
higher and higher and had no means of
propelling the ship in the direction of the
earth, Wild climbed into the net work Of
the filled bag above him and holding
on with the fingers of one hand, almost
frozen, with his teeth unfastened the
cord that held the escape valve, permit
ting the gas to escape in sufficient quanti-
ties to allow his floating to the ground

HOW TO FIND HIM.

There is deep truth i'm the beatitude
which declares that the pure in heart shall
see God. The world Is full of men and
women who are striving to see God with
the mind to find him by searching among
and into the secrets of visible things, to
discover him by some fresh observation
of nature, some occult process OF reason
ing. some unusual and esoteric method of
approach. And the world Is full of doubt
ing. cropping, skeptical cynical, despairing
people whose search is unavailing and
whose quest ends where It began. 1t is
always easier to believe I'm the interest
and nobility of the things which are re-
mote and unfamiliar than in those that
are close at hand, in magical and mys-
FERROUS processes than in simple and OBJ
vious ones and II is vastly easier to use
the mind as an organ of discovery than
to develop the nature into the purity,
sweetness, and sanity which make God
credible and bring him near
The secret of life is an open one to the
pure In heart; II is mysterious to all who
strive to uncover II by knowledge alone
God is discovered, not by a process of
searching, but by process OF living; he
Is incredible, remote. inaccessible, because
people take the wrong paths of approach
to him. To the unselish, the self-forget-
full, the loving. and the pure, God is not
only credible, he is inevitable. If he did
not exist the gentle, the kindly, the
numDle' ana the pure would create MIN
for themselves The qualities which be-
come dominant in them affirm and. in a
sense, compel his existence. He is the
great objective reality to whom they move
like the tides by primal impulse, an ire
sstible law. The world does not find God
because 1t is not willing to pay the price
Of clear vision; It wastes its time and
strength on all manner of expedients. ex-
periments. spiritual labor saving devices
The most rigorous intellectual methods
the most reconcile practice OF the mys-
teries, are easy compared with the labor
and pain OF casting out pride. vanity. self
consciousness, self-love. impurity of mo-
tive, thought. and impulse. Access to
God Is open to every man. is close at
hand, may be found at any moment in
any occupation; but the approach is made
through denial of self, a subjugation OF
self. a casting out Of self which men and
women who are willing to search the
heavens and travel to the ends OF the
earth are not willing TO effect in them
selves. God is always visible; it, is we
who cannot see. Blessed. therefore, and
happy among the children OF the world
are the pure in heart. for they see and
know.-tRev. DR. Lyman Abbott i'm the
outlook.

Property Owners Petition for Building Of

Property Owners Petition for Building OF
a Line from Greenfeld-cost Is Estl-
mated at s225,ooo.
Mortified people are showing a de-
cided interest in the building of a street
railway between that town and Green
field. II there has been a doubt about
their attitude it Is removed by the num-
Der of signatures obtained to a petition
to the officers of the Connecticut Valley
street railway company, asking them to
consider the project favorably.
Fully two thirds of the proparty owners
on the Main street of the town have sign
ed the petition. w. NJ. Moore, one of the
towns most substantial and active men,
circulated the paper and has devoted his
time and energy to making the people of
the town see that the connection with
the towns of Bernardston and Greenfield
would be a great benefit and the linking
of the school ends of the town would be
a great public convenience.
The route that is proposed for the
road is across the new bridge at the
south end of the village, then over private
land, to avoid severe grades, through
pastures, and near the Mount Hermon
school, in an almost direct line to the
road from West Mortified to Demands
ton near the Nelson Burrows place, then
by the highway to Bernardston and from
there to Greenfield.
1t is estimated that the road can be
built and equipped for 1925, 900. It's bonds
for half this amount could be readily
placed. The problem would be the plac-
Ing of the stock. 1t is believed that
Greenfield would subscribe for a con-
siderable part of this in small amounts
among the business men. Mortified
would be able to contribute something
and Bernardston people have assured
their encouragement of the project.
Some of the most conservative Of
Greenfield men, when asked their opn-
ion. have expressed themselves as con-
WINGED that the road would be a great
benefit and would stand a good chance
of proving rohtable.-GGreenfield Re-

NEWS IN BRIEF.
OVERLOOKED $1,000 IN CASH.
Away 100000 In Unnegotlabe Securities
Waterman Gagged.


The savings bank in Sufied, Conn,
was robbed early Sunday morning by
six masked men, who bound William II.
Jones, the towns night Waterman, and
carried away 100000 i'm non negotiable
securities. The thieves overlooked $4,000
in cash and several thousand dollars in
negotiable securities. They came to town
in carriage and drove away in the same
conveyance. The safe was blown open
with nitroglycerine. Five OF the cracks
men visited the bank. the sixth standing
guard over Waterman Jones and his 12-
year-old son. After the safe had been
rent the five men returned to the rail-
road station, in which Jones was secured,
and announced breathlessly: "The job
is done and we didn't get cent"
Cautioning Jones that If he attempted
to escape before daylight they would re-
turn and blow his head OFF, the men
departed in the direction of West Sufied.
Ten minutes later one of the burglars
returned to make sure that Jones was
still there. The principal loss to the
bank will be several thousand dollars
damage to the vault and counting room
by the action Of the powerful explosive.
