REV. 7. N. HURST
IN EUROPE
Writes Interesting Letter From
Italy Where bis Party is Hav-
ing a Good lime.

Our party is spending the
night in Cortina d'Ampezzo
Austria amad the most beautiful
Alpine scenery in the world. In
the very heart of the Dolometes.
IL you don't know what Dolom-
tie means read Stoddards work.
Your neighbor will lend it to YOU
if you haven't got a copy. Look at
the pictures as you read and when
! tell you that even Stoddard
with the pen and the camera
could not describe this scenery
you will surely excuse me if | do
not try. We left Oberammer-
gau last Monday in an automo-
bile after seeing the Passion
Play and went to Mittenwald.
Bavaria. there we took a break
drawn by horses over the noun
tain 10 Zirl where we got a
train to to Imsbrech Austria.
Thence by train to Tablach
where we got Landaus through
the dolomites and we are tired
IN night Tomorrow we have 80
miles in Landaus to Belluno Italy
where we get a train 10 Venice
in time to go to church Sunday.
This mountain scenery is grand
but some of our folks shiver
with cold. We are up where it is
showing to beat the band and
for two days the snow fell in a
regular whirl wind at intervals,
but whan Iwe get to Italy we
will pay up for it as it is as hot
as the old version. Last night
we had tyrolean trout for dinner
and it was fine. These cold
rushing mountain streams are
full of fish and as We drove
along and saw others angling
for them | wished. for a day off
to try my luck. When | left
home | meant TO write about the
Passion Play, but ] cannot do it
Justice. 1t must be seen. No
preconsieved notions, no read
ing or lecturing about it can
give one any just conceptions of
! il and | am sure that a hurried
written newspaper article, writ
ten on the fly would do it no cred
liz. Think of an entertainment
that can hold $500 people in
silence for 8 hours on a cold raw
day with $500 people asking for
tickets and failing to find room
and you have it. This in a town
smaller than Marion and located
! in the mountains at an inacessi-
bic point. Over 100 actors and
all nations of the village. Per-
sonal | was entertained in the
home of the man who played the
part of James and was intro
duced to the man who took the
part of Nicodemus. He speaks
good English but the other man
does not tho his wife is studying
English. | saw Anton Lang
but did not speak to him though
| / hired an automobile from his
brother and paid him 16S marks
and he seemed about as well
pleased to get the money as the
average American even if they
do say that an Oberammer gum
does not care for money.

MONEY MoNoMANIAcS.
By EDWIN A. NYB.


A Missouri man pretended to be era
" and was sent to the insane asylum.
When he arrived one of the doctors
recognized him as a man who feigned
insanity over in Illinois in order to get
into an asylum. Confessing. the pre-
tender said:
mo, am not crazy. but the cost Of
living is so high ! thought l could get
my bed and board cheap in the insane
hospital"
Not crazy. Why. the man had one
of the worst phases Of lunacy.
He was well fixed financially, but to
save paying out money he was willing
to undergo 1.-The hourly horrors Of a
madhouse.
And there are others.
Recently upon his invitation went
to lunch with a wealthy man He
wntched my orders TO the waiter, as If
they hurt him. They did. He ordered
sparingly. When the bill was present
ed he fumbled in his pockets and said.
Il declare. 1 haven't any money with
mev Don't mention it." said as
paid the bill.
The man looks mean every time he
sees me.
He is a money monomaniac.
know a woman who is demented
concerning fashionable attire She
stints herself and almost starves her
husband and children to get money to
buy stylish new gowns and hats and
shoes. She is the best dressed WON
an" in the village where she lives
and one Of the most miserable.
She has gone daft over styles.
/ And you and l know men who
while they are not so crazy to save
money, are lunatics about making
money. They will jeopardize theil
health. their families. even their honor
to pile up useless dollars.
There is no meaner mental diseas,
than money madness.
Economy and thrift are well enough
in their place. but not at the expense
Of friendship and charity and the plair
duties Of life And the making O.
money is all right in it's place. but no
at the expense of health and integrity
and honorable living.
Yes
There are a lot OF people outside th'
insane asylums who OF right should b.
locked up.
