MERITS PROMOTION
DIRECTOR ROBERTS LAUDS SERV-
ICES OF MISS KELLY.

A prominent government official it is said.
once went on record saying that no
woman was worth more than $75 per
month to the government. This has GER
tainly been knocked in the head by the fact
that Miss Margaret V. Kelly, who sits
across the desk from Mr.. George E. Rob-
arts director Of the mint. has just been ad-
vanced from the 81. 600 class to the 5000
class.
When Mr. Roberts recommended 10 sec
retary Cortelyou the promotion OF MISS
Kelly he did it because he felt she was en-
titled to 1t on account of her thorough work
In the position. In conversation with a
Star reporter today Mr.. Roberts said that
Miss Kelly was entitled to all she was
receiving or could get. He further stated
that without question she would be able to
fill the position of director Of the mint with
out any trouble. He said that she was
thoroughly capable. that she knew as much
about the business as any one around the
place and that she was moro fitted for a
business life than any woman he had ever
known.
A High Compliment.
Miss Kelly was reticent and would not
say much about her promotion. She stated
that her progress was due to Mr.. Roberts'
confidence in her. but this was denied by
the latter. who said that all he knew about

I cere desire. He was the friend, and
wanted to be regarded as the friend,
especially of men who were of about
his own age. And so he sought out
the poor man in his poverty, and the
rich man in his possessions; the man
who was a leprous eutcast, and the
man who sat at the head of the table
at the social banquet; the man OF
business, and the man who worked
at his trade; the government official
and the plain citizen; the capitalist,
and the wage-earner: the successful
man, and the man who had lost all;
the man of pride, and the man of
misfortune; wherever there was a man,
the Lord Jesus was interested in him.
He brushed aside the conventional dis
tinctions that count for so much
among men, and considered the man
himself. and always with the same
great end in view, viz: that he might
awake in every man a true sense of
his immortal value, and his present

Our Lord Jesus had a special inter-
est in men, and that, too. in men of
His own years, because they were of
His own class. They were the pro-
ducers. the burden bearers. the respon-
sible factors in the ebb and flow Of
the life about Him. He had Himself
known the privations of manhood, the
meaning of toll. the strain of respon-
sibility. There was no experience that
comes to men in the full tide of life
Unat had not been potentially present
in His own experience. And so He
was drawn TO men, and so He knew
how to approach men.
I am speaking of the human life of
Jesus However insufficient is the ex-
PLANTATION of His person that overloolls
the Divine in Him, he was certainly
and truly human. and in that aspect
of His personality makes His first ap-
proach TO our human souls. Else the
| incarnation would lose its significance.
Our Lord Jesus never failed to lodge
in mems hearts the conviction that
He was more and other than His hu-
manity could account for. but being in
( the form of a man He was also
man in reality. and so same closer to
men than God had ever come before.
