Tom Grimsley of St. Augustine,
where he is employed in the machine
shops of the Florida East Coast Railway,
spent last week here at his old home.
Rev. DR.. P. r. Danley, on his way TO
the north from Rockledge, spent Satur-
day, and Sunday here, preaching twice
at the Presbyterian church on the last
mentioned day. DR.. Danley is vigor-
Gus extemporaneous preacher and so
far as we can learn his sermons were
generally satisfactory to the members of
the church, The Presbyterian congre-
CATION is without pastor, and it is under
stood that DR.. Danley's visit here was
with view TO a call However, as the
doctor only desires 10 spend the winter
months in Florida it is not likely that he
will receive call from this church.
There are no people on earth who need
the gospel II months in the year more
than we, and while of course we are
willing 10 provide all necessary aids
to the conversion of our winter SltorS,
we must look after our own salvation.
Crescent City is big enough, and The
Presbyterian church is strong enough to
afford year round pastor. It's really
the year round residents who pay the
bills.

committee on state of church, that
part of the famous paragraph 26O of
the Church Discipline, which espec-

and kindred amusements, will remain

the paragraph and leaving amusement

Macon, Ga.--Careful estimates place
the financial loss sustained by Macon
people on the reunion at not less
than $250,000. The greater part of
this was invested in thousands of
cots which were never used There
are numerous instances where the
loss falls upon those least able to
bear it. In one case an aged school
teacher mortgaged her home, spend
ing $500 for cots land failed to rent
even one. A Russian barber who
saved $500, likewise bought cots and
did not have a single roomer.

1t is the young who die Of broken
hearts when some love affair goes
awry. 1t is the young who commit
suicide. No rainbow of hope spans
their tears No philosophy gives
them courage to face misfortune.
1t is only the old who can smile in
the face of disappointment, be-
cause they have learned that
laughter and weeping both endure
but a night, and that ii we didn't
get the thing we wanted there is
something else just as good ahead.
We are always talking about the
joys of childhood. but ! question if
any middle-aged person is capable
of suffering as a child does Do
YOU remember the black disap-
pointment that filled your whole
horizon on the day Of the picnic
when II rained, and how YOU felt
that you might as well die since
there was nothing else in life worth
living for? Do YOU recall the fury
OF baked ambition that tore your
soul when you failed 20 get the
school prize? DO YOU remember
how you wet your pillow with tears

The Only Way
To Help People.

When wealth was only obtainable
by robbery, this view of things had
a certain basis in fact. But wealth
obtained by rendering a service to
humanity is thing Of which to be
justly proud.
The parable of Dives and Laz-
arus has gotten a firm grip on the
imagination. Lazarus in heaven
and Dives in hell is a particularly
pleasing proposition for the great
family of Lazarus
The only way to help people fs to
give them a chance to help them
selves. That is all any one should
ask for-opportunity. Giving to the
poor is lending to the devil. Money
earned means manhood. Money
gained by an appeal to sympathy is
tainted. and 1t stains the soul Of
him who gets 1t.
NOW, when things are coming
around to where most everybody
owns a home who really wants to,
we are getting new focus.
Italy and Spain are the homes of
beggardom. But now Spain penal
ICES beggary and Italy is introduc
ing the Montesorri system of edu-
cation, which means eventually
earning your living, not merely se-
curing it.
The church has always east a
mantle of sympathy around the
sick, the lame, the decrepit the un-
fit and the poverty stricken.
Scientific sociology, with its
high-power lens. shows US in the
distance an ideal world. Poverty

THE VIEWPOINT OF AGE

with Sally Smith instead of you?
What could move you that way
now? Nothing.
You have learned that if it rains
today the sun will be shining to-
morrow, and that picnics are messy
affairs anyway. If you didn't carry
off the first prize, you got the con-
ISOLATION one. and you've lived to
see the day that you thank your
heavenly stars that you missed
Johnnie Jones and got Tommy
Smith, and so nothing fills you with
despair because you have realized
that the law of compensation never
fails Age, that takes the keenest
edge off our enjoyment, also dulls
our capacity for suffering. 1t dries
up fguratively, as well as literally,
the springs of our tears.
The Real Optimist.
Youth is likewise the time of pes
simism as regards the world, be-
cause youth is the time of intoler-
ance, of impatience, Of merciless
hard judgment. Every young man
thinks that the country will go to
the dogs If his political candidate
is not elected, and that anarchy
will ensue if the theory he advo-
Gates is not enforced. He believes
that everybody who does not agree
with him Is a thief, a liar, and an
assassin. and that every sinner
should be brought forthwith to JUS
tice. and he is filled with gloomy
forebodings when he contemplates
the future.
It is the old man who is optimis-
tic, because he has seen so many
dark prophecies unfuldlled; he has
seen the world go on in its old
accustomed way after so many pre-
dictions that the end was about to
occur: he has seen the deluge peter
out so often in mild and beneti-
cent shower. Experience has also
taught him that youth is wrong in
thinking everything black and
white, because it is mostly shaded
down into gray, with so much more
good in the bad than we believe.
and so much more bad in the good
than we expected.
Age is the time of optimism be-
cause we have learned to trust life.
and to realize that, as the homely
old phrase puts 1t, there is no use
in worrying because the things we
worry about in advance never
happen and most of our troubles
are about things that never trouble
US. We have seen changes that we
dreaded make our greatest happi-
ness, and disappointment turn into
choicest blessings. and so we learn
to look forward with confidence TO
what the morrow viii bring us
No Mr.. Hardy is wrong. Old age
is not the season Of pessimism. II
is time of calm philosophy Of
serene and hopeful confidence that
whatever is. is best II is when
the clock strikes twelve that we
know most surely that. God reigns
in His heaven and airs well with
the world"

The Old Orchard
By MINNA IRVING.

1H, know an ancient orchard
Where the trees are all in bloom;
You will find it if you follow
Bee and butterfly and swallow
And the watts Of rich perfume.
There the robin builds his dwelling
On pink and dewy spray;
When the wicket clicks behind Won
Care and pain can never find you,
For the world is shut away.

Overhead the apple blossoms
Spread tent of rosy snow.

For the thrushes and the linnets

'Tis the orchard of our childhood

When the winds were sweet as honey.

ffTCAN NOT beg and to dig I
am ashamed" said the col
lege bred prodigal as he
asked for a hand -me-out.
If one wants to get a little
glimpse of the way the times are
changing, please make note Of the
fact that the general government
in Spain has recently passed law
making begging on the public
streets a misdemeanor.
Any individual so begging is liza
BILE to arrest with a fine from one
dollar to ten. For second offenses
Imprisonment is provided. without
the privilege of paying fine. Third
offenders are liable to be sent to
prison for the rest of their natural
lives.
All a-down the centuries men
have been urged to give to the poor

that poverty was a virtue and
riches Disgrace poor men

Self-sacrifice, abnegation, affect
ed humility are all more or less
forms of hypocrisy. Indiscriminate
giving pauperizes. Enlightened self
interest gives freedom.
We have lived in two worlds at
a time. The earth has been for
saken in order that we might gain
the good will of the skies. AS Alb
dul Bana says, Man must be con-
ciliated to man-not God to man."
God loves men who love each 9TH
er, simply because no other kind
are lovable.
Begging is a bad business. The
more the beggar succeeds the worse
off he is. Beggars breed beggars,
and thus make beggardom perpet-
ual. Spain is right-begging must
be made disgraceful.
indelicate to call attention to the
fact that this was one Of the chief
planks in the platform of Francisco
Ferrer. The modern schools"
f-aught that beggary should be abol-
ished.
Ferrer was destroyed because he
expressed himself in undiplomatic
language, and was ahead of his
time, But by his death and through
his death he convinced Spain that
he was 81 per cent right.
And SO now, behold, Spain, as IL
to make amends-for you can't
bring back the dead-is now en-
couraging the modern school and
inaugurating many Of the Ferrer
ideas.

get together these days at round

That is something the world did
