SKUNK HOLDS CHAPEL.
Withstands Onslaught of Bibles and
Hymn Books but Suceunnbs to Shovel

Sioux City, Ia, Jan. 13.-One lonely
animal Of the species of skunk in the
chapel of Morningside college here held
more than 100 students at bay this
morning and finally routed them, not
withstanding the fact that he was
bombarded with hymn books and Bibles
and had hurled at him language which
usually does not accompany such lit
erature.
Although Sir Civet refused to yield to
the onslaught of the scriptures, he
finally gave up the ghost when at
tackled with shovel in the hands of
the janitor
Sir Civet already had possession
when the students arrived for morning
convocations, and seemed disinclined
to yield to threats, persuasion not be-
ing attempted. The melee ended with
the death of the animal, but the morn
ing services were not held in the
chapel and will not be held there for
a month.

The S. S. MEET
At GRAFTON, N. D.
SEVERE WEATHER CUT THE AT.
TENDANCE OF THE SUNDAY
SCHOOL WORKERS.

Grafton, n. D., Jan. 13.-The.very Sc
we're weather has had very noticeable
effect on the attendance at the annual
convention of the Grand Forks District
Sunday School association which was
held at the First Baptist church in
Grafton this week. The city had pre-
pared to entertain 100 delegates and
there is much disappointment over
the actions of the weather man.
However, six counties of the dis
trict, Grand Forks, Walsh, Pembina,
Cavalier, Ramsey and Nelson, were
fairly well represented and the work
was carried on with spirit of
interest and enthusiasm. Dist. Pres.
c. w. Moses of DraytOn presided and
the first afternoon the delegates heard
three very excellent papers. Rev. r.
w Walker Pugh and r. b. Griffith Of
Grand Forks were unable to be present,
but the paper on The Sunday School
Teacher and Bible was very ably given
by Rev. A. L. Fehlandt of Lakota.
The Spiritual Aim OF the Sunday
School, delivered by Rev. o. D. Smith
of Grafton, was one of the finest adj
dresses on Sunday school work that
lldS ever bGtll ISdlu III lAlN SNoINs Il AAN
complete paper will appear in an is
sue Of Live Wires in the near future.
The last address of the afternoon ses-
sion was that by Rev. Ross Adair Of
Larimore, on Boy Scouts. Reverend
Adair is one Of the most ardent work
ers in this new cause and he gave much
valuable information on the subject
as well as the growth Of the move
ment in this state.
The evening session was opened
with a short praise service conducted
by Rev. J. Opie of ST. Thomas and
Rev. B. S. Bates Of Forest River de-
livered his paper on The Sunday
School in Social Service. DR.. c. e.
Hemans, North Dakota's new Baptist
state missionary, gave very eloquent
and inspiring address on The Purpose
Of the Sunday School.
The paper on Teacher Training, pre-
pared by DR.. w. n. Stearns of the
university, was read at yesterday
mornings session. DR.. Stearns, how
ever, was not able to be present. The
devotionals were led by Mrs. r. Nc
Fadden Of Tyner and Rev. Walter A.
Snow of Fargo, international Sunday
school worker, spoke on The New
Graded Lessons.
Yesterday afternoons session in
cluded a paper by Thomas Porte of
Grand Forks on The Adult Bible Glass,
an address by Mrs. Snow on Primary
Department Work and a paper by
Mrs. N. J. Nelson Of East Grand Forks
on why Teach Mission in the Sunday
School?
Adjournment was taken last
evening.

The question as to how long you are

Dorothy Dir On When 7,n !, o., ,

II HE Madrid papers have been hav-
ing very entertaining discus
sion of the subject of a mans
age, and asking its readers to decide
how long man is entitled to be called
young.
The answer that won the prize was:
"A man is young so long as he can
make women Jealous.
Another competitor thought that a
man was old when he could no longer
stoop down and tie a beautiful wo-
mans shoe, while a woman contended
that all men were young until they
! ceased to think Of marriage.
"a man is DID, wrote another COM
petitor. when woman kisses him
with cold lips"
OF course any discussion Of a mans
age is purely academic. 1t really
doesn't matter at ALL It's bit OF I'M
important statistics between him and
the family record for he is literally as
young as he feels, and may do as he
pleaseS.
II man feels like wearing pink
neckties and red waistcoats. and max
ing love to chorus girls when he is rs,
he may do so with impunity. II he is
charming and entertaining, people don't
quit asking him to parties because
he has turned 60 Age isn't a tragedy
to him. as it is to a woman, where, no
matter who she is, nor what she has
done, her years become an actual re-
Election on her character.
She poor dear has to always be
guarding against dressing too young.
and nobody invites her to their parties
after she has got beyond a certain mile
stone except those benevolent souls
who are laying up works Of superero-
cation.
OF course all sensible people recog-
nize that there is no other way Of
reckoning age that is so inadequate
and so little TO be relied upon as by
the calendar Age is a matter Of spirit
and temperament and body, not OF
years. There are people who are super
animated in the cradle, and others who
are still mere boys and girls at so.
Yet TO most Of us. and especially to
women. there comes some fine dividing
line. on one side of which we are
Young. and on the other side of it we
are old. and this line isn't a birthday
mark
When does a woman cross this Rubi-
con? I think:
A woman is no longer young when
her husband begins to call her
Mother"

created equal, II will suffice TO say
that they are all created equal, under
standing the word equal in the sense in
which the authors of that document
employed it, whatever may be the
meaning which Mr.. Eliot pIeases to at
tach to II.
Here is One Sense in which All Men
Are Not Equal.
All men are not alike In the sense of
being alike able to be presidents of
Harvard university. They are not all
equal in the sense Of being alike able
to go about the country plausibly de-
nouncing accepted doctrines of peda-
gogics and theology
But they are equal and identical in
this. that there is In them that same
personal basis Of intrinsic significance,
distinctive of the race. that makes them
to be duplicates and brothers one of
another.
Mr.. Eliot does not appreciate that.
He is an intellectual aristocrat He is
brainy. and 1T is the tendency of brainy
men to make the brains the criterion
of estimate
Two diamonds may be UNEQUAL in
size. but that is not saying that there
is any irregu1arfty between them in
the value of the stuff that composes
them. Christ was no respecter of
persons. and that was because He had
the sense (Which Mr. Eliot lacks) of
that fundamental element OF humanness
by virtue of which we all of us, so far
forth, stand at an identical level.
The authors of the declaration OF
independence where simply saying that

A woman is no longer young when

A woman is no longer young when
