Popular state Song,

Considerable interest has been man.
Tested in. the new state hymn by VIII
liam Seymour Edwards which made
It's initial appearance in the Educator.
We reproduce it in full:
"MontanI semper LiberI."
o. Daughter of Freedom, we haii theei
Fairest child of the land we adore,
Brought forth by people In, travail.
Midst the terrors and tempests Of wari
The sign of the lord In the sun!
Art Freedoms most precious creation!
The treasure million lives wont
They are calling from the mountains!
They are calling from the plain!
West Virginia! West virginia.
Hear the great refrainl
From Maine to San Francisco
Rolls the echo grandl
Ger our blessed. cioud-kissed landl
OF Men who are bred to the mountains!
Women who live in the. dales
we've learned that from Liberty's foun-
tains
IT'S justice that ever prevailsl
Like thy. fathers who watched on the
border.
Defending the line of the West
From Indian and Gallo marauder,
Their sonsis Ye are true to the test
They persisted with Braddock at Pitts
burg
They, starving, held grim Valley Forge;
With Washington conquered at Trentonl
AT yorktown smote tyrane King
AT New Orleans they shot straight with
Jackson
Buena Yista's great victory gained
When Taylor broke fierce Santa Anna,
Revenging the Aiamo'ss slain
And when the dark cloud of Secession
Came creeping over the land;
When slayery's silent aggression,
From whisper turned into command:
Then, instant, from mountain and valley,
From mansion and cabin as one.
At the first call of Lincoln they rally
And save what their fathers have won,
Midst our mountains. as free as the
water,
That flow meath the laurel and pine;
As free as the mighty winged eagle.
That scars Ger the submits sublimel
Thy sons and thy daughters stand ever
Exemplars on land and on sea.
OF which the watch-words the breezes de-
liver.
Mountaineers, they shall ever be free!

Answer to the Question.

The misunderstanding Of this warn
ing upon the part OF the disciples
was common occurrence and con-
tinued until after Pentecost In this
case, however. Jesus tells them plain
ly why they did not understand ".
III. Jesus knew and could read their
hearts (Heb. 4:13). How like the
disciples Of old are we today. Fer
getting the miraculous feeding and
the careful gathering Of the frag
ments, each new doubt causes US to
reason one with another"-whereas
these memories ought to relieve US
from all care or anxiety. Happy is
that man who can discern these signs
and read the answer to the question
OF " 81 in the light Of Gods acts and
proyidences In the past.
The disciples had been with Jesus
q long time and observed his mighty
acts, yet they confused the material
with the spiritual. 1t was against
this sort OF leaven he warned them.
rather than some kind OF bread.
We now turn to the third section of
our lesson, the healing Of the blind
man w. 1926 There are four cases
OF restored eyesight mentioned in the
gospels, three of whom are brought,
and one came alone. In this case
others bring the man and intercede
for him ". 22). Last week we OBJ

and here we have another. Jesus led
the man by the hand outside the vii
lage and making clay with spittle

emphasize the fact that they OBJ
served him. that they might accuse
him." and hence every act on each
separate occasion had significance
and suggestiveness for that partic-
ular occasion, meaning entirely ir-
relevant at any other time. Why this
man did not see at first we are not
told, but surely twas Though no fault
on the part of Jesus. Nor was 1t the
mere use Of the spittle that effected
the cure, but rather denomination
OF the fact that Jesus can heal with
or without means. This gradual pro.

veloping work Of grace IA the human

FLYNN JOHNSON ATTRACTION
Leading Sport Writers Already on
the Scene.

East Las Vegas, n. NJ, June 22.-
All / can say is, that there are at
the present time in Las Vegas about
20 OF the leading sport writer's in
the country. Among them Ed Smith
OF the Hearst papers; Claude John
stone, OF the Kansas City Star; Har-
ry Lanigan, who Is free lancing;
Root OF the Associated Press, and
others. Az Las Vegas Is the center,
and all these men are on the job,
| see no reason why the country
should pay any attention to hazy
rumors and imaginary troubles
coming from Albuquerque or any
other point.
Just now as the date for the match
Is drawing near, and numerous per-
IONS imagine that their sole efforts
we're responsible for the success OF
Ihe Flynn Johnson match, which
now IL a positive and assured fact,
each In turn comes now with de-
mands ranging from few cOmph-
mentary tickets TO a thousand dol
lars. OF course the honest critic
and square booster expects nothing,
that Is not coming to him. TDe
others come in with unreasoN t5le
demands, for which In the ag5rc-
gate a million dollar gate would not
be a paying proposition and on be
ing refused each in turn goe? out
to get even.
And from now on ] expect to see
all kinds OF canards flashed and
mailed through the country, iayng
from Flynn laying down TO Johnson,
or Johnson laying down to Flynn,
az the visions OF the imag mary may
dictate, to the fight being prevented
and the arena burned down.
All these things happen as tol.
for being at the head Of a big event
and promoters of boxing matches
must pass through this ordeal in
every case where large match is TO
be decided.
In closing | wish to add that il
anything happens in any way or
shape to the Flynn johnson attract
ion the news will come out from
Las Vegas Immediately, as with both
men training publicly every morn
ing and afternoon, and with the nu-
merous staff correspondents and
news service men mingling all day
| long with the populace, there would
be no chance to hold the news for
even an hour.
