Lincoln was born had been taken
north for show purposes and was
housed in q Long Island basement.
This was rescued from the blight Of
cOmmercialism, like the farm, and
sent back from it's wanderings to rest
in honor in it's own place. The jour
ney to Kentucky was one of triumph.
The little one room log cabin was es-
corted to it's destination in greater
state than most kings and conquerors.
The railroads carried it free; the
Wanamaker store in New York dec
Grated the car; the governor Of Ken

militiamen to eescort the old logs
through with safety; Mayor Weaver
Of Philadelphia received it with hon

had to pass in secret to keep from
being assassinated, greeted the cabin

his utterances shine with the light Of

have their origin in the spiritual.
Men are not equal outwardly, but only
in their fundamentals and in the inner

Here is the model for human govern

Abraham Lincoln worked. His code Of
principles consisted in the doctrines Of
the Nazarene crystallized into politics
We need both them and him. We can
have him only by looking through his
words and acts to the soul beneath.
To find that and. give It forth univer-i
sally to humanity would be a centena-
~ worth while, would be Of more help1
than all the birthplace farms, all the
formal programs, all the panoply and
trappings and state. Not that we IN
derrate these. outward things. They
are necessary, but they are not pre-
scious in themselves, only for what
they represent 1t is the mighty, the
majestic and the merciful spirit Of
Lincoln that gives them life. It IS that
which we honor and that which we

which Lincoln met the crisis Of his

him; otherwise all our praise becomes
but so much lip service that insults,
rather than honors him.

An exchange says they have invented
a new kind of social amusement. It is
called an "avoirdupois party. y All
the girls are weighed, and the weight
of each written on a piece OF paser
and put into a hat. and the. young
men must draw. The young man
must go to supper with the girl whose
weight he draws, and must pay for
her supper at one half cent per pound.
It is very exciting. so far as the Young
men are concerned.
There are some young men in Little
Falls, so we've heard, who can quite
accurately guess the weight Of some
damsels, and didn t get the informa-
tion from scales or. an avolrdupDls

not lone .a man for one crisis but foE.
'sall His fidelity to the public good,
I his refusal to permit private consider
SatiOns to stand in the way Of duty and
principle his tender soil itude for the.
poor and humble and his placing Of
man above wealth, Of humanity above
things and OF opulars ri ghts above In

devotion to the doctrine Of equality
and Of the rule of the majority all OF
these things are needed now and ever
in the republic. What splendid OPP
portunity this centenary presents to
study Lincoln's spirit, II the innermost
OF the man that gives him his hold
On the people Of his age and all ages!
While associations are making beau
tiful memorials of the material spots
that knew him and are arranging pro-
grams to act as the machinery Of
praise, the form and shell that carry
the substance and life, why should not
the millions of men and women who
love Lincoln devote their leisure to a
study of his life and utterances and
an attempt to define the genius that
animated them? Then why not crown
all by resolve to give to the affairs
Of the nation the same unselfish devo-
ton, the same high regard for truth,
the same love Of the rights of man,
the same spirit of Righteousness, the
same hatred of tyranny, fraud and
sham and the same faith in God and
the common people that he gave in
such full measure, even to the sacri-.
fee Of life itself?
If this centenary, this dedication Of
the birthplace farm, this worldwide
ceremony in his praise, could beget
"a spirit like that it. would be of I'M.
told benefit to the nation and to the
race. Could this people once truly
comprehend Lincoln and follow the
lines he marked out, they would make
of this such a republic as has never
been known in the files Of time. We
have never had democracy as yet.
We have never incarnated in a gov
eminent the principles Of the Golden
Rule and the sermon on the mount.
