Parental love, conjuval love, FL
ial love are the keystone to that
arch that supports the pillars OF
government and keeps our social
system secure. As a rule anarch-
lists have no children. No, nothing
to love but themselves. As rule
the poor love their children better
than the rich, for riches will in
time absorb man and absorb his
best emotions. With the poor the
children are first, with the rich
they are second. The law of CON-
pensation comes into everything in
this life. The good and the bad;
the joys and the sorrow are kindly
mixed by q wise Providence. Then
let Us all be content with our lot.
Let US not look over the fence to
envy our neighbor, for We know
not bis secret sorrows. Let us
not trouble our own houses fol
fear we shall inherit the wind.

sci you to hurry and get register

the next election rolls around you
will have an opinion regarding the
matters to be decided at the cleo
ton. but your opinion will not be
worth pinch of snuff, if for fail
ing to pay your poll tax, you can
not vote. When your friends in
vite you to vote you will have to
confess that your voice is nil in
the administration of affairs, be-
cause you do not hold a poll tax
receipt of your own. Would you
be thus humiliated? If you are a

being registered and having your

TRUTH

al churches referred to is typical of
! many others. On the improved roads
on Sundays are unnumbered automo-
biles. People who have been accus-
toned to drive to church, and put their
teams under sheds, do not dare to do
so now Their horses are frightened
by automobiles, condition the own
ers of which take little care to avoid.
The result is that the country people
do not attend service, unless near
enough to walk. AS few are, the
churches are going to ruin. What is
true of this cluster is true of thou
sands, wherever improved roads have
come, and in many localities where
they have not come.
I'm Bucks County, just north of
Philadelphia, certain roads, long well
known, are being macadamized. The
State of Pennsylvania is spending mil
lions of dollars on the work, and is
telling the farmers what boon i'm
proved roads will be. On the score
of this boon, the landowners are
asked to pay part of the cost of i'm
provement. There are on par
ticular highway lately improved, and
some miles apart, three rural church

tomobiles from Philadelphia come in
vast numbers, not alone on Sundays
nut on all days of the week. Farmers
who paid for the road are hardly able
TO use it at all Accidents
nnumerable have occurred. On Sun
lays people are afraid to drive to
church, and two of the churches have
closed their DOORS"
From. certain class of churches
comes another cry less likely to meet
With sympathetic response. Churches
depending largely on the summer

hese liberal patrons now spend the
lay in long trips instead of going
to church. Such a diversion is es-
,ecially attractive to the paterfamilias
Who comes to the country for the
Sunday only, and of course controls
the purse-strings. Widespread woe

If churches because of these changed
conditions. Even Roman Catholic

THE COUNTRY CHURCH MENACED
BY THE AUTOMOBILE.

Church attendance in rural districts
we are informed, is greatly decreased
by the prevailing "motorphobic fever"
The ever-incleasing use of the auto
mobile for Sunday touring on country

Digest, the churchgoer who
drives with his family to church. for
the horse is apt to take fright and
life become thereby endangered No

New York; of these charges against
the vehicle, though it receives them
with more or less skepticism, remark
ing that the smallest loophole, nc
matter how small it may be, always
seems to afford a large enough avenue
of escape by excuse where religion is
concerned" 1t gives considerable
space, however, to "the cry of Mas
sachusetts paper" in regard to the
question. We quote below some pas
sages:
"a cry of alarm comes from the
country church concerning the auto
mobile. For years an uphill propo-
sition, the rural parish declares its for
tunes to be far worse now than ever
before Pastors throughout New Eng
land, save in some parts of New Hamp
shire, Vermont, and Maine, and in al
parts of New York, New Jersey, Penn.
sylvania Maryland, and the District OF
Columbia, and in the middle west ir
the vicinity of the large cities, are
reporting to their denominations
headquarters the well-nigh ruin of thei,
work. Their troubles are due to the
automobile entirely, they say, and il
hundreds of cases they say that ruin
of their lifework and the end of theiI
congregations are practically certain
to be the outcome"
The case of an Episcopal rector in
southern Connecticut is particularized
He served two rural churches sly
miles apart. Between the churches is
an improved" state road that at
tracts numberless motor-cars. The
rector has been the victim of two
runaway accidents caused by these
modern pests and is now ''in such
state of mind that, after years of
faithful work, he is driven from his
labor and his living. The latter is a
serious matter, for he has saved
little" Elsewhere than in New Eng
land the complaint is raised. We
read:
"In one of the Hudson-River coun-
ties, not far from New York city, is
a cluster of what were until recently
prosperous churches. The State of
New York has improved its country
roads, and is about to spend several
millions of dollars to improve them
more. There is a general cry that
rural roads are bad. The automobilist
is prosperous and prominent, and his
voice is heard. Around Albany it is
said there are the worst roads in

why he should be sold yesterday for such price,
even though his racing days over. The big

while the auctioneer begged and implored for a
