In the course of an article on
Hartman the April American Mag
azine says, editorially, of Elihu
Root. "A man like Mr.. Root in
the government is worth all the
Fairbankses and Shaws in the
world. His past career may seem
20 be at variance with this faith.
But Mr.. Root has the peculiar
merit of all great men, he is loyal
70 his job. Just at present his en-
ployer is the Government of the
United States. He has no other
client. And he as is much concerned
70 advance the interests of the gov
ernmentas heever was to further the
schemes of the rich men who said
about him: Other lawyers tell us
what we can't do. Root tells us
what we can do Nay, more con-
cerned, for his sentiments and
emotions are now aroused where
his intellect only was invoked and
finds in administering the affairs of
the State Department and advising
the President on multiple questions
of domestic policy, a job big enough
for the brain of any man. To see
him in action in his office at the
State Department is to see a much
greater Elihu Root than New York

our expenditures simply because
we have no State tax, lavishness
will run riot. The idea at Dover
apparently was to raise salaries all

poor policy. The last year was

So many of the little chafng
problems of married life could be
mastered, so many of the mists of
misunderstanding could be dissi-
pated by the sunshine of love, so
many of the discords in the music
of home could be translated into
harmonies if false pride did not so
often come between, writes William
George Jordan in the April Define
'ator. True pride is the guardian
and protector of what is best in us;
false pride is the sullen defender
and apologist of our weakness. Life
has so much real pain and sorrow
so many dark clouds floating over
the sky of home, care and trouble
that seemingly no human foresight
can prevent, that it seems almost
extravaganza to manufacture troub-
les merely to offer them as sacrifices
on the altar of vanity, this false
pride.

Now that Conference is over the
citizens of Smyrna have time to sit
down and in memory live over the
delightful events of the week. The
session of the Wilmington M. E.
Conference in Smyrna was a pleas
ure and an inspiration. Ideal
weather conditions remained thro-
ughout the week while the season
of pleasure greeting was charming
in every degree. The Conference
was given as hospitable welcome
as the good people of Smyrna knew
how to give and in turn they were
pleasure to entertain. Ofcourse
the entertainment of such a big
body cannot help but be taxing to
town the size of Smyrna but our
good people were equal to the oc-
cosion and there was nothing want
ing. Bishop Berry and DR.. Morri-
son the evangelist endeared them
selves to the hearts of many people
and their coming here has been an
inspiration to the people. 1t was
delightful conference session and
will be remembered with pleasure
for long time to come.

through which they seek to paralyze
their nerves and find freedom from
care. They are really frantic some
days until they get their drink. To
see any one approach the refrigerator
on the lower deck is signal for both
pigs to rise squealing to their feet and
scramble across deck to beg for cocaco-
la. They stand on their hind legs and
try to peer into the refrigerator. Su-
gar Babe succeeds in getting high
enough to peep over and squeals all the
louder because she sees the bottles.
Sims little nose comes only half way
up the box and he squeals louder be-
cause he can't see the bottles.
A bottle for each is usually taken
out, and when they see it the two
pigs stand promptly on their hind
had such shrewd and speculative
way of examining the boats as they
passed up and down the river that the
Joe Wheeler's crew could no longer re-
sist him and bought him, placing him
on the lower deck with Sugar Babe.
Here he, too, wanders about or takes
long maps in the sunshine-when not
sleeping in the arms of one of the deck
hands, where he nestles down with the
confidence and abandon of tired baby.
Sim hasn't known winter yet, for
he is only few months old, but when
the cold nights come and the frost nips
his nose, he may learn Sugar Babes
wise trick of finding place that is
warm.
Between landings on winter nights
the deck hands and rousters gather
about the stove on the lower deck and
often stretch out with their feet to-
the fire to catch wink of sleep. Su
gar Babe has found out that the stove
is the source of heat and also that it is
warmer sleeping between two people
than it is sleeping over on the side
where the wind blows in, 50 when she
gets cold at night she awakes squealing
Justify and goes over to the group of
sleeping negroes and roots them this
way and that until there is room be-
tween for her fat body. Then with a
sigh of great content she stretches her
legs, proping up their clumsy fore-legs
on boxes, barrels, people anything,
and open their mouths, waiting for the
bottles to be thrust between their teeth.
Each bllssfully drinks until the bot
ties are empty and then they trot awk-
wardly away to lie down in the sun
and sleep. And through the long af-
ternoons they dream wonderful pig
dreams, while the Joe Wheeler slips
down the river between walls of anne
thyst-colored rocks or banks edged with
willows and ferns that dip and sway
in the current. Anna B. A. Brown,
