While the technologian was dispen-
ssing commissary tea in iron-stone china
cups to his two guests in the "dinkey'

Hence the enforced journey to Carbon
ale only anticipated an inspection trip
which he had intended to make as soon
as he had seated Adams firmly in the
track-laying saddle.
Not TO miss his opportunity at the
first curve beyond Argentine he passed
his cigar case to Biggin and asked
Toerpission to ride on the rear plat

this run tomorrow of my own accord
TO have a look at the extension grade.
You will find me on the rear platform
when you want me.
Good enough" was the reply; and
Winton went to his post of Cbserva-

Greatly to his satisfaction, he found
that the trip over the G.. & G.. r. an
swered every purpose of preliminary
inspection of the Utah grade beyond

Don't care if l do. Say, that old

car has got a mighty pretty gal, amt

Winton, wishing that Mr. Biggin
would find other food for comment.

TO the establishment of this institution

that will endure when all the monuments
erected by man have disappeared. The
things that are seen are temporal, the
things that are unseen are eternal. 1 am

towards the upbuilding of our nation and
civilization. My friends, 1 want this ma
ton to be great nation. No one goes be-
yond me in his idea Of what this nation
ought to do for the world. 1 want this to
be conquering nation. l want it to con-
over all the world; not with the force of
arms, but by the power of a high and
holy example; and let me say to you, that
this nation today is doing what no other
anton in the world is doing; yes, more
than any other nation In the world has ever
done. Go around this globe and you will
find centers of Christian civilization that
have been established by the philanthropy
and generosity of American Christians. I
found these all through the Orient. Yes,
my friends, If we cannot say that the sun
does not set on our possessions, We have
prouder boast, that the sund does not set
on American philanthropy; that before 1t
goes down on one center of civilization II
goes down upon another No nation in
the world has ever shown such disinter-
ested affection for the people of the world.

wonderful that we stand by the side

use OF the electric current speak to peo-
pie 10000 miles away, but the achievements
of the heart are more wonderful still, for
the heart that puts into operation some
movement for the uplifting of the human
race will speak to those who will live 10, 900
years after all our hearts are stilled and
this is more wonderful than speaking to
people 10000 miles away. Generations will
come and generations will go, but in all
the infinite generations of the future the
influence that was started by the question
of the little boy will never die. Mathama-
ticians can tell US how far it is from the
furthest star to the earth, but no human
being can calculate the infinite influence
for good of one kind word or one kind act.

Gross Abuses of Billboards in the United States

land anywhere may be public nuisance"
Courts have sustained this view The New
York supreme court decided in favor OF
the attempts Of Buffalo and Rochester to
regulate advertising within their limits. In
Massachusetts, wayside advertising Is
strict regulated and any person is au-
thorized 10 remove illegal advertising at
will Some cities forbid advertising on
fences OF buildings In the course OF cree
ton or repair But the reform movement
is not merely prohibitory. An exhibition
devoted to artistic advertising was recently
held by the New York Municipal Art So
ciety, and in Boston the Copley society, to-
gether with the civic league of Massachu-
setts will make a similar display form
of public education familiar in Europe.
The freedom from taxation and regula-
ton Of the billboard fraternity in the United
States is one of the most glazing absurdi-
ties in the country. France taxes every
billboard above the size of an ordinary
store sign In the cities OF Germany and
elsewhere on the continent the outdoor ad-
yertising is restricted to pillars that bring
in a large income and at the same time
prevent placard nuisances. Berlin gets
Sss $50 a year from its advertising pillars
In I.eyden the city itself directly manages
all city advertising. German cities pro-
hibit any placard offensive TO good taste or
morals. But in the United States, as
rule. the billboard system is go as you
please. and pays nothing in taxes. The
power TO tax is the power TO regulate.

what Il was twenty. or even ten, years ago.

Thus you present to the student here the
Christian conception of life and the Chris
tian conception OF life fits the individual
and it fits the nation. There can be no
greatness in man that does not rest upon
morality and there is no morality that does
not rest upon religion. You cannot find a
basis of morality except religion. 1 have
read some efforts by scientists to build
morality upon material foundation. II
cannot be done. Until man recognizes the
relations between him and his Creator, he
does not understand life or his relation to
his fellows. Morality has the power of en-
durance in men, and young as l am am

~ANE of the important events during
N the month was the laying Of the
cornerstone of the new building
It4IHHI for the Kearney Military acad-
SaAAaA~ envy on the afternoon Of Decem-
Der Is. last. The exercises brought to-
gether a notable gathering Of church and
civil dignitaries and were witnessed by a
large throng. Apart from the distinct nov
city OF laying a cornerstone on an after
noon in the middle Of a winter month. the
event Is noteworthy as indicating the
growth OF the educational movement in the
state. Bishop Graves of Laramie, in whose
diocese the school is included, told Of how
the academy was established. 1t was sug-
gested to him by the remark OF a boy Of
IA, in the fall of 1890. when the bishop was
visiting at the home of the boys parents.
From the serious remark OF the boy grew
by degrees the institution that is now part
of the educational work Of the Protestant
Episcopal church in the west Aside from
the address OF Bishop Graves the speech
of the occasion was made by Mr.. William
Jennings Bryan, who was the orator for
the occasion. Mr.. Bryan spoke extensively
OF the necessity OF religious training in
connection with the work of education that
the moral as Well as the mental and phys
zeal nature of the boy may be developed
along right lines. Mr.. Bryan said:
81 have believed for many years that
We have overestimated the heads part
and underestimate the hearts part in
the shaping of human destinies and in
bringing human happiness. l have some
times had occasion to remark that great
as were the achievements OF the mind, the
achievements Of the heart are greater.

that will shine more and more unto a

1T is these schools that blend religious
teaching with mental instruction, gives us
ideals of citizenship that leads this nation
and recognizes its mission among the ma
lions of the world. Every individual can
justify whatever attention he puts upon
himself that will make him stronger TO do
less wrong, and so this nation can justify
any development OF itself that makes It
stronger to do the work that the world
calls for. but just as the individual must
lift others up by an example that inspires
them, so this nation must lift the world
by an example that will be inspiration
to the world, and l believe that the Chris
tan civilization that has sent teachers and
missionaries all around this world will act
through our civilization and make our ma
ton the light of the world that it may lead
all the other nations in the gradual prog
ress toward higher ground"
