Laughter.

Worry stalked along the road.
Trouble sneaking after,
Then Black Care and Grief and Goad,
Enemies to Laughter.
But old Laughter, with a shout,
Rose up and attacked 'em,
Put the sorry pack to rout,
walloped 'em and whacked 'em.
Laughter frivols day and night.
Sometimes he's a bubble.
But he hath a deal of might
In a bout with Trouble.

companies his report Of its cond ton
at the close of business on July 81.
1t was DR.. DoWies wish that his
large possessions should always re-
main the property of the church VIII CHI
he founded. In accordance with this
provision Of the VII, the receivers III
most cases have used as an instru-
ment for the conveyance of the prop
Ierty under their management a lease
with many restrictions, which expires
January l, 5000.
Soon after his death, however. it
was found that an income proportion
ate to the true value of the property
could rot be obtained under those con
ditions, and former Receiver Hately
obtained an order from Judge Lands
authorizing him to convey lands Of
the estate by unrestricted deeds Up
to the present time this order has been
used in only few cases. While the
Zen lease contained almost countless
restrictions. the form of deed adopted
contains restrictions only as to liquor
gambling and such other uses as are
illegal according to federal or state
laws.
Mr.. Thomas letter to the investors
says that Mr.. Dowie's idea of having
every citizen of the city an employee OF
the church is evidently unsuited to
modern commercial conditions, and
that in the future deeds VIII be grant
ed wherever possible. The holders OF
the old 1,000-year leases may obtain
them at very little additional expense.
AS rapidly as possible the industries
belonging to the estate will be DIS
posed Of without mourning unwarrant-
ed sacrifices, and the estate will not
thereafter engage in business.
1t IS hoped that the removal OF the
restrictions of the church from the
property in Zion City will result in
the inflow Of new life from without
the community and a consequent bet
terment in every way.
