in town told us six months ago that lie

enough real, interesting local dope.
Last week he came, and with tears lii
his voice begged that we leave out q
certain happening which closely con-

and never could refresh his recollec-

1t all depends on whose OK is gored

subscription and threatens to quit adj

his personal affairs and distasteful @
him is published, is generally the man
who clamors long and loudly for the

(By Wigatman F. Melton.)

One Sunday, At 1245 p. m.' a lonely
reporter stood on prominent corner
in great city, waiting for car.
Throngs of people we're passing oncthe
way home from various churches He
was regretting that his duties kept
him away from church Sunday morn
ings. AS the lively crowds passed by,
he heard, and could not help but hear,
the following:
"Our preacher is most interesting
and edifying speaker, but he attends
no social functions, and he looks as if
Fate had slapped him sidewise, when
he was an infant, and he had never
fully recovered"
Our preacher has the loveliest
brown eyes, and dark, wavy hair, but
he is too much of a politician, and he
can't preach lick"
Our preacher is as handsome as
Apollo, and he breaches like Saint
PauP-as if she had ever seen the
one, or heard the other.
"Our preacher is freckled skeleton
he talks religion too much outside the
pulpit, and he wouldn't recognize d
sermon if one were hung, labeled, be-
fore his browless eyes,"
"Our preacher is broad-minded an !
liberal. Why, at the grocery store, h.
ordered fHell-peppers, instead Of
Bell peppers! amt is so, Myrtle?
Our preacher is too narrow for any
use. He never refers to literature
and he will not even allow his daugh-
ter to turkey-trot."
Our preacher is a good man, but
Lord have mercy On the poor old ig-
norant wife of his; her dress does not
touch her even when she kneels down
to pray"
Our preacher is a poor excuse, and
he enjoys social functions too much
but we can put up with him for the
sake of his elegant wife and those
charming children"
Our preacher and his wife are as
good people as / ever knew, but look
out for those devilish brats with the,r
long heeds."
Our preacher is handsome man
he is remarkably brilliant, and deeply
pious; he breaches like an angel from
a cloud but in none; he. is sweet-tem

THEY ALL SAID "PREACHER"

pered in his home, and good company
everywhere. His wife is a charmins,
stylish, intelligent, Christian woman:
she is an ideal mother in the home,
and the life and inspiration of every
social function in the town. Their
children are neat, pretty, sweet, smart,
and obedient"
This last paragraph the reporter did
not hear that day. He wrote it down
from memory of what he had heard
his grandmother say of preacher ana
his family who lived near her home
when she was a little girl.
When the reporter reached his
boarding house, and while he was wait
ing for dinner to be announced, he
jotted down the following observa-
tons:
THE preachers job is no snap. Peo-
Pile seem generally rather hard -
please in the matter of a parson. If he
is intellectual they want him also to be
handsome. If he is handsome they
want him also to be intellectual If he
is liberal some think him a heritic. II
he is strict with his children some
him narrow. He is expected to attend
social functions, but he mustn't enjoy
them too much. He may talk religion
in the pulpit, but he must talk litera-
ture in the parlor, and he mustn't talk
politics anywhere"
Surely this reporter struck a grouchy
crowd, for the minister's cloth admits
him, unquestioned, to all classes of
good society, and he and his family
are probably no more criticised than
other people in equally public position.
The local pastor, rabbi, or priest, Is
the one person to whom all people turn
for advice and sympathy in time of
trouble and distress.
From the standpoint of the minister
and his family, there is no harm in
their being reminded that they af9
closely observed.
From the standpoint of the people,
there can be no harm in the question
Are not the people of to-day in fair
way to become a little too critical OF
the ministers and their families?
From the standpoint of the reporter,
let him speak for himself: my job is
no cinch, but I'm glad God did not call
me to preach!"

and crime. Materialism has US by the
throat, he walls.
1t Is not so. One of the marvellous
achievements of the twentieth cen
fury, greater than the wireless, is
that religion has lain down with COM
mon sense, that religions stirs vitality
H. the heart of the student, the wel,-
balanced brain of the captain of in
dustry, the weary toiler in the factory,
even the men who, needless, chas IS
the lotus of pleasure.
Do you doubt it? We do not know
about vacant church pews. We do
know that the real religion, the code
of Jesus Christ, is more powerful and
prevalent today than at any time since
Golgotha. The millionaire is more pit
iful toward the man in the street. That
is the spirit of the Galilean. We take
better care of our bodies, the tene-
ments of the soul. That is the spirit
of the Galilean. We war more poten-
thy on vice and against mawkish con-
cealment. That is Christ's spirit We
strive to enforce more rigidly a finer
code of ethics in business and social
life. Christs life was given to that
endeeavor.
Why are we doing these things
From fear? No. From self interest
No. Out of meddlesome activity? No.
Why, then?
Because we believe, of faith. Hope
sees a STAR" sees it through the murR
OF the dollar and the gloom of self.
Listening love hears the rustic of a
wing" above the strident voices of the
twentieth century and the enchant-
ments of commercialism. We have
watched them try to test faith in a
crucible, and the common sense of the
twentieth century is coming to see that
such a feat is as impossible as the an
alysis of mothers love. Some Of us
have followed the chill trail blazed by
the skeptic, and turned back rejoicing
to the warm Preside of faith. Many of
us have seen how pitifully futile is icy
logic when death beckons and disease
and woe sit at our elbows. We want
something kindlier, something more
sustaining Most of us, unconsciously,
recall the sublime childhood faith IN
the mother. We know that was the
surest guide of all life's emotions. We
are returning to that guide. IS
Thus it is that faith and religion
have become reconciled with material
ism and business in the twentieth CEN
fury. We speak much of what the
century has done. 1t has done moth
ing more notable than this silent, al,
most unconscious, swinging to normal
of the faith of a world that thinks, and
is not afraid of the effect Of thought
upon its faith.
To this editorial we would add a
single quotation:
Faith is the last great link 'twixt God
and man.

prayer
Than in the ancient lore of all the
schools"

FAITH

There appeared in The Constitution. ,
Sunday, October IL, an editorial on
Faith" that was remarkable in sew
eral ways. In the first place, it is de-
refreshing to find, in SET
ular paper, a religious note that rings
clear and true, while so much space is
being taken up in the religious papers
in wrangles and CONTROVERSIES: Van
berbilt, intercollegiate athletics, etc.
In the next place, and from a purely
religious without refer
Ience to sect of denomination-this ed
itorial is complete refutation of the
narrow view that the Sunday paper is
wholly evil. Finally, the literary style
of this editorial is very pleasing and
attractive. We have heard the pro-
fessor of English, in one of the leading
!colleges of Georgia, say that this ed
litorial contains one of the finest SET
fences he has ever read from any
writer. That sentence is this Some
of US have followed the chill trail
blazed by the skeptic, and turned back
rejoicing to the warm fireside of
faith"
1 Believing it we'll worth while, we
gladly reproduce the editorial in full,
after having thought over it for more
than a month.
FAITH.
4 1t is many years since Robert G..
Ingersoll spoke these strong lines at
= the grave of his brotehr:
Life is az cold and narrow vale
between the barren peaks of two
eternities. We cry aloud, but the
r only answer IS the echo of our cry.
But in the night of death hope sees
star, and listening, love hears
the rustic of awning.
We have been hearing much of re-
cent months and weeks about immor-
tally, for and against, from such men
, as Sir Oliver Lodge, president of the
British Society for the Advancement of
Science; Thomas Edison, the inventor;
| the leaders of various ecclesiastical
, "insurgent' movements in most of the
; denominations, and the ubiquitous
new thought" Less of the latter, how
ever, than ever. Folk tire easily of un-
|, convincing twaddle, especially when j.
t seeks to set dynamite to the convic-
tons handed down through the CEN
turtles and circulating through the
blood.
In his day Ingersoll was regarded,
and sometimes damned, as the arch :
agnostic. The religion of our day
day would find room for him. Religion
today stripped of ultra alvinism,
asks mainly faith and hope. And if
faith and hope do not speak boldly in
the concluding sentence above quoted,
a sentence spoken in the face of death,
We have no patience with bubble to
the contrary.
