HYMNS ARE POORLY WRITTEN
Good Poets Have Not Composed Re-
IIgIous Songs We Sing, Says
Enalishman.

1t is a melancholy thing to read an
English hymn book. Doubtless for
most of us sacred associations gather
around the hymns we sing, so that we
abandon ourselves to the feelings
called up by these associations, and
do not notice what we are singing,
writes Prof. w. H. d. Rouse in the
English Review. Yet II in a critical
mood we examine them we cannot but
be overcome with melancholy.
They are so well meant and so badly
expressed, so pious and so ridiculous.
They are sentimental when they
should be impassioned, groveling in
stead of penitent, incoherent when
they ought to be simple.
1t is not true that great poets are
irreligious; on the contrary, their
glory it is to see soul of goodness
in things evil, and this is the essence
of religion. Yet our hymns are obvi-
ously not written by poets. There is
surely no reason why religion and illit-
eracy should be unequally yoked to-
gether, and it we're better to sing no
hymns at all than to sing trash.

GAMBLE IN COTTON FUTURES
There lie Always Present Element Of
Chance In Whole Problem of Life
Bad Comparison.

Some days ago there appeared in
the newspapers a very shrewdly
worded item, under a New York date
line, an argument against taxing cot
ton future gambling" said a former
cotton man to a Birmingham Age
herald reporter, land the logic was
clever, but the basic point of reason
ing was false and misleading.
The argument for cotton future
gambling was that the farmer in plant
ing is gambling on the weather, soil
and his own labors. Well, if that isn't
stretching the blanket what is. II we
take the whole problem of life and
mans endeavors we shall find that
there is always present the element OF
chance, although the fatalists do not
concede this in the concrete.
in matrimony there is a chance Of
mismating; in insurance there is the
gamble with the company that you will
live; in real estate ventures there is
the chance taken, often of rapid ad-
vances, in a speculative sense. In mer-
chandizing there is the reasonable risk
taken, in buying styles of raiment and
selling them before the caprice. Of the
ladies rush to some new fad or fancy.
All these things involve judgment
and knowledge, and mathematics Of
economic or scientific bearing. Not so
as to cotton future gambling for 1t
has become distinctly a manipulating,
sharp practice game. Even stock gamb-
ling is more to be respected, for there
is something transferred in the sales
and behind each share are values
based upon real property or intangible
assets.
I'm the morning news service we
read: The market opened 26 points
I'D on August and six to seven points
up in the new months. For time
the squeeze in August attracted some
attention, but there was not enough
trading in that position to make 1t a
leading factor in the days business
The new crop went ten to eleven
points up $50 cents per bale) but after
ward lost all the advance on profit
taking by shorts
Note the words squeeze and shorts
which means that there was some
feint made of calling for real cotton
on August contacts, when there is, as
vet, but little of the new crop in sight
and settling day is at hand. OF course
nobody wanted real cotton, or expect
ed to have to deliver it, but the max
ing of a market was duly accomplished
and the little gamblers lost their mar
gins-probably both ways-as II
points will wipe the board Of the 81
per bale margin.
by comparison craps shooting is
clean game with cotton crop gamb
| ling.
yes. the farmer does gamble, but
he puts his labor and his capital into
partnership with nature; the cotton fu
ture Spectator puts his into a game
where the partner tolls not, neither
does he spin cotton; but he wears fint
linen. drinks fine wines and has
wash day, six days in the week-tha
is. makes wash sales to flim-fam the
little gamblers all over these United
States on the bet Of what the board
will be marked"
