We have fallen upon times when
the admonition given in the foregoing
from ST Luke C:4l-42 seems to b.
somewhat in order. Mote hunting
is nearly always. one of the most at
tractiye diversions for many of us.
There are Sc many "motes" and they
take so many different shapes and
they cut so many curious capers
don't you know. 1t is an interesting,
even a fascinating occupation, this
mote hunting.
And then, aside from the zest or
flavor 1t gives TO our daily routine,
whenever we have found a new form
OF mote In a long afflicted eye, or
an old form In an eye where we hal
not hitherto discovered any at all,
there is also a secret satisfaction in
the feeling that, after all. our own
eyes can not be so very bad when
there are so many that, so far as we
can tell. are plainly worse.
.Hypocrites.| OF course, we are
hypccrites, nearly all of us. We are
born that way and are reared that way
