AN example, OF noY.ALrY.

Forty-ntne years Of service under
n employer is a ions record of
faithfulness in any business. but II is
exceptionally so in the newspaper
business. That Edward NJ. Brandt.
who. at the age Of s~eventy-six. has
lust died. should have remained in
the service of James Gordon Bennett
on the New York Herald for nearly
two score years and ten is a token
Of the loyalty Of MIR. Bennett. as we'll
as Of the faithful man who has pass
cd away.
Forty-n!ne years. 1t is a Ions pc
riod for one man to work with an
other. How MANY men ara Won to
say that they are gathering moss
when they remain in one place for
ten years, And vet With what n
sense Of something good and strong
and endurine one hears OF this yacht
ing expert of the New York Herald
remaining faithful to his employer
for so many years! 1t was an in
stance OF loyalty hegettine loyalty.
Mr. Bennett. always a nan OF true
vision and appreciation. with a sense
of justice that Is a protection TO
those who serve him. saw IN Brandt
not merely an employe, but n friend
"A man on whom ne could count.
and whose loyalty and l%1elpfulness
were not measured by the size Of the
salary envelope received each week,
Brandt was the kind OF reporter
who would undergo personal hard
ships to get a story for his paper. He
was willing 10 make sacrifice of his
own comfort. ven when he was not
called upon for such sacrifice. when
he could serve his paper. He was
content to serve Mr.. Bennett and the
Herald. 1t was but natural that en-
ployer and employee. under such con-
ditions. should be drawn closer TO
each other. and their relation devel-
oped into lifelong friendship. The
length Of their association. which is
an indication that both men were
big enough to overlook the petty dtf-
ferences that are inevitable in such
long service, is an honor to both Of
them.

problems involved in the better
housing OF the poorest people and
more discriminating and extensive
distribution OF those who could with
advantage be ~transplanted to the
land over the seas"
To actual service. rather than to
talk. has General Booth devoted his
,ife. He has never made n sensa-
tional speeches. stormtng against
those who have made fortunes. which
are SO common nowadays. He has
never tried to array class against
class. He has preached to the
people that they have been wronEed.
nor has he tried TO stir then, into dis
content. He has realized that wrongs
cannot be righted by violence or by
passion.
Probably there has been a reason
for the absence of sensational speech
cs in the career of General Booth.
He has been so busy helping to Inn
prove conditions. especially among
the poor that he has little time for
talking. lie has preached love. rath-
or than hate. So many reforms are
based on doctrines Of hatred and re-
rrisal that it is hard to believe that
some Of the rcformers. " swept into

ciple.
The doctrine that General Booth
has taught has been IN that is as
old as Christianity. II has been the
ta%therhood of God and the brother
hood Of man. 1t is not a sensational
doctrine. but il has hccn the most
eficacious ever preached. And the
