No action has yet been taken by
local commercial bodies to protest
against the change, principally be-

either town or country exclusively;
rather it is union of town and coun-

perform, and the Association as unit
is accomplishing great things.
But the success does not depend up

The little cares that fretted me,

Among the fields above the sea,
Among the winds at play,

The humming of the bees.

THE FRIEND OF MAN

TN HIS BEAUTIFUL POEM entitled
"The Friend of Man" Sam Walker
Foss expresses the wish that he
might live Gin house by the side of
the road, Where the race of men go by
The men who are good and the
men who are bad,
AS good and as bad as l."
Sam Walker Foss did not ask that
he might mix only with the select, the
refined, and the educated. He did not
seek to be one of those "souls, like
stars, that dwell apart" from the COM
mon world of humanity. His aspira-
tions were not away from his fellow
human beings but toward them.
The world has many men and wo-
men who take a distant and plying
interest in humanity. They deplore
weakness and wickedness among men.
They sometimes pity and sometimes
despise the common herd" And all
the while they keep themselves i'm
maculately free from contact with
those who are not in their class So
cially and perhaps morally.
Such pity and sympathy, be it ever
so genuine, does humanity little good.
The world is not warmed by the far
off stars but by the nearer sun or by
the nearer yet hearth-fire. Pity and
sympathy may better the soul that
gives them birth, but it takes fellow
ship to touch the heart of the way
ward. 1t is not the isolation of pur-
| ity but the comradship of souls that
are strong that gains the confidence of
people and ifuences them for good.
Men speak today with reverence of
Abraham Lincoln. But the men of re-
finement and culture of his day sneer-
ed at the uncouth rail-splitter.
He would hardly be acceptable in
polite company today. He was more
at home among the story telling crowd
of the village grocery than in the
drawing room set. But his influence
with the man of the street and the
farm was greater than that of the
most brilliant of his educated assis-
tants and advisors in the government.
People felt that he was not merely a
leader but "friend of man." who had
the feeling of fellowship for even the
meanest and weakest of the race.
The world will be better place to
live in when more people begin to feel
that they are all members of the hui
man race and that after all most peo-
| pie are not so far different from each
other in all fundamental things. The
world viii grow better the more we
get the spirit of fellowship expressed
by Sam Walker Foss:
"Let me live in my house by the side
\ of the road,
Where the race of men go by
They are good, they are bad, they are
!. weak, they are strong,

Then why should sit in the scorners
seat,

Let me live IN my house by the side Of
the road,
And be friend of man.n-North.
