SHORT METER SERMONS.

The life rejects the love.
Lazy folks never have any leisure
Greatness is revealed in gentleness.
Every soul either serves or shrinks
You do not acquire moral muscle by
lodging duty.
Consecrated ignorance is only sloth-
full blasphemy.
Working for men Is the best way of
waiting on God.
This is a sad world to him who looks
at it with sour eyes.
A man must be judged not alone by
his attachments, but by his ideals.
The chesty man seldom has accom-
modations for full grown heart.
The sermon of the Man is mightier
than even his sermon on the mount
There is a world of difference be-
tween tender heart and a soft head
People who always have bones to
pick go through life looking famtshed.
Every time you do a worthy thing
you make it easier for others to be
worthy.
Many men who are talking about
their visions are referring to night
mares.
Many a door of opportunity IS closed
TO a man on account of his imagined
chest measure.
A great many who think they are
building forts for the faith will find
they are but barricading the pathway
Of progress.

Answers Plea of Missionary in Japan, AS
sorting No Japs Were Excluded"
Despite What President Said.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Dec 21.--
Mrs. Flora B. Harris of Toxic, and
widely known as a missionary, addressed
communication to the local school
board. in which she deplored San Fran
cisco's attitude toward japanese in pub
lie schools. The board has framed a re-
ply. 1t asserts that the japanese have
not been excluded" from the schools,
despite that no less than the President
has employed similar assertion i'll Il
message to Congress. 1t is added:
The fact that the President of the United
States, basing arguments upon erroneous
assumptions frames against a loyal people
scathing criticisms regarding a matter
which is purely one of local concern, does
not in the least deter the people of the Pa
cific coast.
Neither do the misleading deductions and
recommendations of q politician high in au-
thority, when voiced through a document
which plainly sought the light of favor and
not of truth, impress the people of this To-
cality. The board of education will not re-
cede from it's position.

These well remembered incidents I'M
doubtcdly are responsible for much of
the prophecies Of future war between
the United States and Japan. There
are other factors, of course, but the re-
membrance Of the Japanese protest
against the annexation Of the Hawaii
al Islands, In which action Russia was
usually regarded as a kind Of abettor,
and the generally believed report that
the 'Bushis" had offered the American
government 5000, 100000 for the Philip

Spain, have undoubtedly prejudlced

Among all the nations of the world

nunciation of the doctrine of brutaIism
than our own blessed America, the
haven of the prosecuted and oppressed.
1t protested against the butcheries and
sayageries of Spain when inhumanity
threatened to decimate the Cuban prin-

that a decided stand is going to be
taken by this country against the say
age brutalities practiced in the Congo

spoken out in this matter long ago. 1t

sible have some international action

GODS IDEAL MAN.
By DR.. PoIemus II. Swift

BY Dr. PolemuS II. swift.
We are to. think not of Gods ideal
angel, saint or divinity but just about
Gods ideal man. He is in the world.
He is flesh and has red blood in his
veins. I am sure that David was a
man after Gods own heart not because
every event in his career and every
moment of his life was pleasing to
God but because the great gulf stream
of his inner life was pouring onward
toward God, because the great deep of
his soul was in sympathy with Gods
plan and program. Gods ideal man is
Lot now at the summit, but he is al
ways yearning for and struggling to-
ward it. He has not yet conquered
all his enemies, but he keeps up the
fight. He does not sometimes fall but
he gets up, rubs the dust from his eyes
and presses on toward the goal. He
does make mistakes, but he tries to
learn from his failures never to make
the same mistake twice. He does some
times yield to temptation, but he hates
the sin that he falls into and when he
gets vision Of 1t he turns his back
upon it.
