The Testing
Time
BY j. G. OSBORN.

/ One of our own Americans. in a fine,
poetic frenzy. wrote these words. And
things are not what they seem" Illus
trations abound. Where shall we be
gin?
] a little paint" We are told. covers
multitude of sins Inferior material,
careless workman ship go into the build
ing or The machine; a little paint and
/ varnish make all fair on the surface.
/ Our jewelry is plated, our pills sugar
coated, our theology is diluted. our
wine likewise. In our amusements-
well. we don't expect much We skate
without ice. and think we are happy.
In our everyday affairs it is hard TO
tell where the reality ends and the
sham begins.
And also in some of the deeper
! things. In education we go through a
/ certain routine and assume the APP
pearance of wisdom. In our profes-
sional career we put up bluff; in pol
itics also In business we advertise.
We send our battleships around the
world. We have even heard of forts
defended by cannon made of big saw
/ logs with a round black hole painted
in the end
OF character we must speak more
carefully. and yet Ito be in the fashion
We al wear cloaks" We deceive our
selves quite as often as we deceive our
neighbors. And this is a sad error, for
we suffer most from it. Sam Jones
said if he wanted 10 know what kind
of a Christian Deacon So-and-SO was.
he would ask his wife. She knows.
Once in a lifetime. perhaps, we meet
a person of whom we can say, He is
an open book''-just the same inside
as out; no sham, whether bad or good.
And the most sacred things about US
we don't care to have public property.
Our hopes and fears, our loves, our
joys and sorrows, all our own. We
can not, we will not, share some Of
them, al least, with our closest init
mate.
An artist may paint a rose so per
feet as to defy the most careful in
speCtion, but the fragrance and the
honey are wanting. The bee Will fly
elsewhere. So there comes a time
when the sham will be exposed the
paint worn OFF. the gliding furnished,
the illusion dispelIed
All this applied To communities and
10 nations. History is little more than
a picture gallery hung all around with
images of greatness the inscription
of whose ruin is they We're, but they
are not -
To our nation a testing time came in
1861. Those who then were actors
need not be reminded how strenuous
was the trial, how II revealed to US
the strength of our devotion 10 the
principles of the founders OF our gov
eminent. And We recall with some
pardonable pride that We emerged
from under that trial a stronger ma
ton, with a better understanding OF
ourselves, and of our relations TO
other nations: and how, because OF
the way We endured that trial we have
been accorded a first place among the
nations, first among equals" both as
TO national prowess and in national
character.
Other testings viii occur 10 students
OF American history We cannot en-

has come TO US a national peril con

terrific thunderstorm and squall. which

George M. Dickson Opposed to
the Yearly Model Idea.

George ". Dickson. secretary and treas
urer Of the National Motor Vehicle Com
pany. says IN speaking OF the yearly model
idea:
American motor car manufacturers will
do well 10 follow the popular trend Of pub
lie opinion in disseminating the yearly
model idea. The automobile has ceased 20
ne a luxury. II has become a stable COM
modify, with just as much demand as
bread. clothing, pianos or sewing machines.
This market Is no longer dependent upon
the whims OF purchasers. In the early
DAYS the yearly model Idea was very use
full. as It showed at once the state OF the
Industry Epochmaking change In design
took place each year Then IL was only
fair 70 the maker and buyer that there
should be some system that would indicate
tbese changes. Now, however. there is a
verv different condition. Wheelbsse, horse

ideas that go 10 make UP the modern auto

went downstream almost as far as Milton,
and from there had practically clear four
mile course, with the finish mark al the

thirty-four most OF the way and the crew
went along very smoothly.
When the first signs OF the storm doomed

The Wisconsin boats let themselves out

spurts shot II up as high as forty. The
crew rowed raggedy. however. when the
stroke went up, and did not look as for

reasonable height. The freshman and four
cared crews had a much easier time OF It
