Forth In Lecture by DR..
w. J. Eby.

DIR. w. ]. Eby secretary of the Y.
NJ. G. A. at Connellsyille gave lee.
ture at the First United Evangelical
church Wednesday night, on the sub.
jeot "A String Of Pearls" His hum.
orous stories illustrated the points
that he wished TO bring out, as well as
to furnish amusement.
DR. Eby emphasized that many prec.
lous stones aud all the wealth would
not make a being content. He showed
the value OF education and compared
the methods Of educating 30 or 40
years ago with the principles Of teach.
Ing today. Also. that one lnrortant
thing Is overlooked in modern ways OF
education, that is in developing the
memory. About 90 years ago the pu.
pills were required to learn many diff.
hcult verses, and q marked degree OF
development was shown. To-day, said
DR.. Eby, when n pupil Is called upon
to recite something that is not fresh
in the mind, he says, 81 did know. but
| forgot"
Memory Is n power Of the soul, and
that having the things Of the past in
memory, It helps solve the problems
of the future. A person without mem.
ory is an object Of pity for the
thoughts Of school days and days OF
childhood are the things which stir
the inner soul OF man. II creates a de-
sire for purity and jovial times which
were once enjoyed in their youth. II
is not the wealth OF a person but the
thoughts Of things that are free from
all troubles that make men happy.
The richness Of people lays in their
memories.
