clothing and educating family, pro-
viding for sickness. and facing death
with an empty pocket on the morning
Of every payday.
And it is in that interim that the
manual training has its chance-and
gives his chance to the boy.
The Jews are admittedly successful in
their handling Of what has been called
the charity problem. They take care Of
their people amazingly well. one doesn't
often find Jew in the poor house. and
not very often IN the prison. Maybe it
is because they know what to do with
their children.
It is worth while to be guided a little
by the successful experience of others.
There are many boys here in Salt Lake
whose parents want them to complete
the High school course. The boys don't
care more than a whoop or two for the
higher branches. 1t is a matter Of the
most supreme indifference to them
whether plane geometry is on the level,
and they would a whole lot rather read
Mr.. DoOley than Mr.. Caesar any day.
But they can be interested IN the
work Of their hands. They can under
stand the value Of a box they have
made; and there is something immense
ly convincing in a machine.
Wherefore, when the new High school
shall have been built, let US all resolve
on the establishment Of the biggest and
the best manual training school here in
Salt Lake that has ever been housed in
any city of the west. In that school let
us help the boys solve their problem.
And in the after years they will rise
from the benches Of independent ana
well-paid artisans, and thank us-blow-
ing salutes to US with fat pay envelopes,
and recording the wisdom of our pro-
vision in their savings accounts.

It is not our province to preach. Tiff
has far too good a preacher to make
that necessary. But we beg his indul-
gence while we say that belief is some
thing more than words and forms. That
Mormon boy wasn't convinced by any
thing his father said-but by what he
had observed in the life and the con-
duct Of the father. Actions speak much
louder than words to young people, as
well as to old. Sacrifice proves more
than psalms. And there Is more logic
in service than in sermons. Which can
not be construed as a fling at DR.. Crane

and ninety deficiency.

AUTUMN.

IT'S all a myth that autumn grieves,
For watch the rain amid the leaves;
with silver fingers dimly seen
1t makes each leaf tambourine,
And swings and leaps with elfin mirth
To kiss the brow of mother earth;
Or, laughing mid the trembling grass
IL mods a greeting as you pass,
Oh, hear the raSn amid the leaves
It's all a myth that autumn grieves!
IT'S al a myth that autumn g1ieves-.
For list the wind among the sheaves;
Far sweeter than the breath Of May
Or stored scents OF old Cathay.
1t blends the perfumes rare and good
Of spicy pine ana hickory wood;
And with a voice as gay rs rhyme
1t prafes of rified mint and thyme.
on, scent the wind among the sheaYes-
IT'S all myth that autumn grieyes!
IT'S all a myth that autumn grieves.
Behold the wondr0us web she Weavesl
BY viewless hands her thread is spun
Of evening vapOrs shXly won.
Across the grass from side to side
A myriad unseen shuttles glide
Throughout the night. till on the asisht
Aurora leads the laggard light.

At Des MOines, Iowa, the president of
a college has raised a revolution among
his three hundred students by declaring
any boy will have to get permission Of
the faculty before keeping company
with any girl. He says "spooning has
gone too far" And both boys and girls
rise in their classes and declare it cant
so too far; and they won't ask any OLD
grOuches in the faculty for permission
to walk in the moonlight alone. And the
president says they viii, or they are not

From tine Improve ment Era, Dec 1903
When people think we're mad
Because they cannot see,
And we pity and turn glad
Is that not victory?
When we are sore derided
Through hate and Jealousy,
And then leave foes unchided-
Is that not victory?
When we can give the sighted
More aid than sympathy,
And then heal wounds unsighted,
is that not victory?
When We can make all discord
Strike tones for harmony,
And then hear one great concord
Is that not victory?
When we can see great visions
How all might happy be-
And then change world conditions
Is that not victory?
When last we see the greatest good
In strong pOsterity.
And then train youth for parent
hood
Is that not victory?
When everything for childhood
done,
When every one is free.
All then. the race Of God is won
Yes. then It's victory

CHURCH AND THEATRE.

Some kind friend has sent US three
copies OF a little paper called the Church
Trumpet. Tt is the weekly publication
Of Tiff Methodist church in this city,
and we are going on the assumption
that the person who sent these copies
is a friend Of the church, and also of
The Herald-Republican.
In one Of these papers, the issue of
December fifth, is found lifts monthly
statement Of account for November Of
the current year; and we feel at liberty
to reproduce il. Here it is:

erecting a business block. They missed
some of the very inviting chances; but
there are others just as good. And there
is no organization in the city more de-

is the Women's Republican club.

such another condition?
The Trumpet disclaims any desire to
attack the theatre; but the editor very
plainly sets the two assemblies-the
church and the theatre-in contrast; and
there is an undercUrrent of surprised
regret that the church should fare so
badly at the hands of the people, while
the people evidently have plenty of
funds for the theatre.
And, really. it does seem like a ques-
ton for the lift people themselves. That
forty dollars for the pastor is little short
Of amazing-when one considers the
ability and sincerity of DR.. Crane.
Where is the difficulty? Do the Tiff
people mean that there is no need for
their church organization? Is that the
logic Of the situation? Financial state
ments are pretty convincing documents.
/ They argue a good deal more than the
plain figures. They go back to causes,
and forward to effects. And the unex-
/ pressed declaration Of the financial
statement above is that there is no mis-
sion for Tiff. Figures don't lie-espe-
cially church figures. And no church
in the world-no institution, no matter
what the name-can go forward that
way. Bankruptcy-or a changes the

At the opening of the afternoon ses-
sion Clerk Of Courts c. w. Jones was
sworn and read from dockets of 1907
ard 1903 entries in regard to liquor
cases against William 7. Quinn, show
ing that he either entered demurrer
or pleaded nolo in each case. The case
was given to the jury at 3.25. and at
SIS the foreman reported that there
was no present prospect of agreement.
Tie court instructed the jury to bring
IN a sealed verdict at $50 today
The next case to be taken up was
that Of state VS.. John Copeland of Au-
gusta Copeland was indicted for liquor
nuisance as the owner of a building,
and Ernest l.. Mclean of Augusta APP
Feared as counsel for the respondent
The first witness called in behalf of
the state was William w. Shaw of Au-
gusta. who testified that he rented
building of the respondent and paid
the rent to him.
Deputy Sheriff George r. Vickery of
Hallowcll testified that he raided the
Copeland house in the neighborhood of
Togus run by William Shaw and
seized liquors. He also saw a number
of soldiers in the house with Copeland,
deputy Sheriff A. r. Bucklin OF
Litchtield testified to seeing Copeland
at the Shaw house upon one of his
searches of that place.
John Copeland. the respondent, took
the stand in his own defence. He testi-
fled that he did not own the house oc-
cupieG by William Shaw. He had the
renting of the house, however, and did
rent it to Mr.. Shaw for the purpose OF
running n restaurant business. he
charged Shaw $40 a month rent. pay
able in advance. He never saw any M
nor sold in the house and never knew
that any liquor was sold there, al
though he had heard there was. Wit
ness told Shaw that he did not want
airy liquor sold there.
on ross-examination Copeland testl-
fed that he originally owned the house.
but afterwards gave it to his wife. He
still collected the rent. He did not hear
a rumor until last Friday that liquor
was sold in the house since Shaw oc-
cupied it.
After the presentation of the evidence
and as Attorney Mclean was about to
make his closing argument the court
ordered the jury to bring IN Verdlct
of NOT guilty which was done without
the Jurors leaving their seats.
County Attorney Hildreth announced
that he was not ready to take up any
further matters until today. The next
case on the criminal docket Is that OF
