The recent lecture by the
young Galvestonian in behalf of

trated the brilliant gifts which
nature bestowed on this young
man but proves what great tai
ent combined with hard work
and lofty ambition can produce.
What a glorious example he sets
to our present youth, who, I am
sorry to say, too often think of
rushing through the school in a
hurry, thinking that they can
acquire a depth of knowledge
and command of their thoughts
without hard work-and mag
lining that life is only worth liv-
ing for the monetary results that
can be achieved. But what a
serious mistake; brilliant re-
suits can only be achieved by
tenacity of purpose, high aim
and that logged persistence of
preferring study to play. Well,

of which meeting was the acqui-
sition of my life-companion. AT
that time the lad, eight years
old, impressed me very deeply
with his jovial nature and sensi-
BILE talk, and in later years, his
father, who by the way was a
highly educated and very pop
ular gentleman, pointed to me
the little study room where his
son loved to pass his time when
other boys of his age were at
play. No doubt the fathers great
love for science and art (the two
daughters being we'll educated
and excellent musicians), and
the open house he constantly had
for company of the most refined
people, were an excellent slim
illus for the boys ambition and
developed his oratorical gifts
and laid the early foundation for
the fondness of deep study of
philosophy and psychology-the
result of which we have had
an abundant chance to see loom
up significantly Monday night
before our eyes, and which show
what Judaism has gained in the
acquisition of such a worthy rep
resentative of her cause.
In conclusion | wish to say
that five years ago | stopped
over in New Orleans to meet my
daughter coming home from Chi
cago, his father with intense
feelings of happiness told me of
his achievements while at Column
bia College, and read to me a
sample of his letters he used to
write to his father. That letter
was nothing else but an essay
on philosophical studies which
he submitted to his father for
criticisms. | am glad to see the
success-the we'll deserved sue

cross. The stars shine peaceful
ly when the great ship goes
down amid cries of agony. The
flowers care no more for brides
than they do for the bier, where
the babe sleeps the sleep of
death. Reasoning thus, vast gen.
erations of the pilgrim host have
stumbled across the desert with
out leader. The poet looking
toward the silent stars has ques-
toned, whether there was any
hand to tend and fill those lamps
of night. The peasant and the
herdsman has asked, 'Does God
hear mans cries; does he pity
mans tears? Does he see mans
red and bloody footprints ?" And
all the voices of the generation
sob the doubt and question, 20,
that we knew that God cares for
u.s."
1t is the certainty of God that
makes men brave. In our bet
ter moments, reason speaks of a
great abiding presence in the
world, and men endure as seeing
him who is invisible. Twenty
centuries ago an old Greek stud
led the mental operations of a
bee, with brain no larger than
a pinhead. He found that the
little bee organizes a city, builds
ten thousand cells for honey and
twelve thousand cells for larvae,
and a holy of holes for the moth
er queen. He found that the bee
observes the increasing heat and
when the wax may melt and the
honey be lost, it organizes the
swarm into squads, puts sentin-
els at the entrances, CLUES the
feet down, and then with flying
wings Greats a system of ventil-
alton that makes our electric fan
seem tawdry. This is the wis
dom of a little honey bee that will
include twenty square miles in
the field over whose flowers it
has oversight, But if a tiny
brain in a bee performs such
wonders providential, and exer-
cises such minute oversight and
personal supervision, who are we
to say that the mind of God finds
the task too great when we would

who found the people upon
farms and left them living in
towns and villages. Soldiers are
proverbially reticent men. But,
coming to the end of his life,
Joshua reviewed his tumutlous
career. He was a Scared old
hero who had fought upon a
thousand battle fields. He had
known all the horrors of the
march across the desert, and he
could remember the slavery of
Egypt, the pastoral epoch in the
region of Sinai, and the new
agricultural civilization in the
promised land. In retrospect
he saw that the promises of God
had matured and had been paid
in full. The harvest of happi-
ness promised had been garn-
cred and slowed away. In the
thrilling emotion of that hour,
the lifelong reticence of the SOL
dier was broken, and he spoke
to the people. God has never
forsaken u.s." he said. "When
we were hungry, he fed us;
when we were thirsty, 10, the
water gushed from the rock; in
the day there was a pillar of
cloud, and in the night the fire
cloud beckoned us with arms of
flame. Ye know in all your
hearts and all your souls that
not one thing hath failed of all
the good things which the Lord,
your God, spake concerning you.
All have come to pass unto you,
and not one thing has failed"
And after that came silence and
the eternal rest of God.
For various reasons men ques-
toned the personal providence of
God. Some are disturbed by the
largeness of the task. Science
has reduced our earth to the di-
mansions of a grain of sand, ly-
ing on an infinite seashore, and
man has been reduced to a mi
croscopic animalcule. Why
should God exercise a minute
oversight and a personal super
vision over creature who is a
mere leaf on a tree of time, a
leaf that wakes green and fades
and falls away, S blown as dust
up and down the aisles of time
and then forgotten? Another
