help feelnS an interest IN seeing new
berry keep in the forefront OF the
towns in it's class, and therefore will
let my pencil go off sometimes, for
just can't hold it, but my mouth, it
never goes off, except after a little
corn bread and bacon to keep the body
together. But congratulate the may
Or and city council on the fact that
some public improvements are to be-
gin soon. I would not hurt the feel
ings of any one and neither would L
do anything to retard the progress OF
the plans which city council have for
the public improvements about to be
undertaken. And any others that may
be alternating in the municipal brain.
I have been trying to keep up with
the actions of our legislature but it
has been beyond my ken. I noticed
in a paper the other day that the leg
islature was still appointing investi-
eating committees. And then invest:-
eating committees will have to be ap-
pointed to investigate these and there
will be no end to the chain. And then
they are going to build warehouses
for the farmers and I reckon next
they will provide superintendents for
the farms and the whole thing will be
under government supervision and we
will all be happy. There is one thing
that has been overlooked, and that is
a commissioner to supervise the press
of the State and to see that the lit
erary pabulum which is dosed out
every day does not contain any bac-
terra and germs that are detrimental
to the intellectual and moral health
and development of the people. 1t is
as important as the body. In fact
they tell us it is more important to
give the mind and soul the proper
nourishment than it is to be so mind
full of the body. But maybe I don't
know.
In nv last notes I said / might con-
tinue my sermon at some more oppor-
tune time. You know, I don't like to
wear out my pencil unless somewhere
leave a little sermon that I hope may
do good. I am just going to give you
a. sermonette this time and am go
! ing to quote It because it is written
I by some one else and therefore should
have more influence with you than if
| had Wtirten it:
! 7 had written it. "Consider this, your
goodness is of no use if you are not
good to others. The good OF goodness
is that you can wrap others inside It,
It ought to be like a big cloak that
YOU have on a cold night, while the
shivering person next to you has none.
| If you don't make use of your good
ness. what is the good of it?' Think
of that. It is worth your while. Moth
ing can bring you peace but yourself.
Nothing can bring you peace but the
triumph of principles" That also con-
tains some food for reflection.

was prepared and signed by all mem
hers of the commission. 1t was taken
to the governor, who is member OF
the commission, by Secretary DAVID
n Means. for his signature. He had
evidently been piqued over the election
of another to the position of chairman
of the board, for turning to Mr. Means
he declined to sign the advertisement,
and added: There is some raScallty
going on in the sinking fund commits
sion.''
Means Hot Reply.
Mr.. Means took the matter up and
is quoted as saying to the governor:
"Whoe7er says or intimates that I am
connected in any way with any ras-
eality states that which is absolutely
and UNANIMOUSLY false"
Governor Blease thinks that
change was made in the chalrmanshlp
of the commission "by his political
enemies"
This is a symptom.
The rural police idea appears to
he one of the most popular in the
State. 1t is apparently being general
" adopted, Judging by the number OF
bills that have been proposed lool1ng
to the establishment of the system in
those counties that have not already
ACCEPTED the rural police idea.

when the s!amming of the front gate
and the sound of many people talking
caused Eva to jump to her feet, rush
into the hallway, and hurry over to the
open window which overlooked the
front yard. When Eva came to the
window she saw six men, including her
father, carrying Doug on an improvised
stretcher. AS they came directly
beneath the window they laid Doug
down in the shadow of lilac bush and
began to plan how to get him through
the doorway and up to his room. The
doctor had forbidden Doug to talk
which restriction, of course, forced
Dougs thoughts to seek other channels
of expression Thus the expressive
power of his eyes were multiplied a
hundred fold. Eva leaned out over the
window sill and looked down. Doug
CHANGED to be looking up. They were
face to face. Their eyes met.

HERE AND THERE.

THE CONVERSION OF DOUGLAS DURANI
After putting Doug's room in readi
ness Evangeline went to her own room
brushed her hair and sat down by the
open window. A strange loneliness
crept over her young heart, loneliness
that even the consciousness that she
was in her own home with her father,
mother, sisters, and brother could
not chase away. She wondered
at it, Placing her elbows on the sill.
she lanquidly laid her chin in the palms
of her hands and sat quietly watching
the changing hues of the sunset sky far
away above the wooded hills. Now
and then a little cloud would drift into
view then fade away in the sunlight.
The beautiful scene sensitiZed the fgura-
tive side of her mind and caused her
imagination to burst into flame. She
began to solilOquise as follows In
deed life seems but a vapor, ever
shifting twisting and changing. How
often Oh, how often. in the bright glow
of approaching joys do we perish and
fade away from memory forever. Ira
gic, tragic" Then came another cloud
floating gracefully up from behind a
high wooded hill. It's form was very
suggestive, Evangelines imagination
soon gave it the form of a beautiful lady
attired in a trailing gown of golden
gauze. Right where the sunshine was
brightest this lady Of the mist wavered
and paused as if waiting for something.
At some distance, lower another little
cloud was seen lettering about in the
shadows. 1t was of very dark color
and at first seemed to be very ugly
creature. Evas imagination quickly
nodded it into human form. To her
it was young man struggling in the
darkness. He was striving to reach
the beautiful young lady on the sunny
plain above him. Patiently he toiled
to disentangle himself from the past
that he might realize his longing for a
brighter future. At last he succeeded
and foated triumphantly upward losing
his ugliness and becoming himself a
shining light. Slowly he approached the
young lady. AS they met they blended
into one and were waited by the even
ing breeze peacefully away over the
hills and valleys. Suddenly Eva's
beautiful reverie was rudely broken by
her sister, Mary, who began toplay the
piano in the below. After playing
while Mary began to sing that OLD
song, The Dying Nun" Eva listened
intently, for she loved the song, anG
Mary sang 50 sweetly! Mary had come
to the following words in the old song
and was singing them with unusua

GOD Is LOVE

To live and love and be good friends
Makes earth a garden full of flowers
Wherein God often walks and spends
With us the happy sunny hours.
We see life's pathway vending far
Among the flowers and fields of green
Holding the gates of heaven ajar,
At last an angel hand is seen.
Then sweet and low this song is heard
"All sorrow ends, all sorrow ends,
For you have lived your Makers word
Come in and love and be good
friends.

The monthly meeting of the
Board OF Stewards of the Central
Methodist Church was held by in
vitation at the home of Hon. w.

of expectancy and appreciation
filled each heart on entering the
spacious reception hall where the
beautiful decorations at once de-
lighted the eye. A graceful palm
tree in the back reception hall at

fort, pleasure and enjoyment of
every one present. A few minutes
