rs that he was right and we are
wrong?
He looked at the eternal, we at the
evanescent. He was closer to God
than we. In spite of what we in our
superior way term his fanaticism he
was ruled by principle. He was at
tempting to follow Gods voice in his
soul rather than old customs. He was
rebeling against the Journalism. the
immoral standards and the unfaith OF
his age.
He was moved by powerful spir-

A Sunset on the Mississippi.

I kept in mind certain wonderful
sunset which l witnessed when steam
boating was new to me. A broad ex-
panse of the river was turned to blood;
In the middle distance the red hue
broadened into gold. through which
solitary log came floating, black and
conspicuous; in one place long, slant
ing mark lay sparkling upon the water;
in another the surface was broken by
broiling. tumbling rocks that were as
many tinted as an opal; where the
ruddy flush was faintest was smooth
spot that was covered with graceful
circles and radiating lines ever so dell
cately traced; the shore on our left
was densely wooded, and the somber
shadow that fell from this forest was
broken In one place by long. rufi1ed
trail that shone like silver. and high
above the forest wall clean stemmed
dead tree waved single leafy bough
that glowed like a fame in the unob-
structed splendor that was flowing
from the sun. There were graceful
curves. reflected images, woody heights
soft distances. and over the whole
scene, far and near. the dissolving
lights drifted steadily. enriching it ev

League, an active legislative CAM
paign is being prepared for the year
1914. The Anti-Saloon League IS
growing steadily in numbers in all

men who are not prohibitionists but
who are radically opposed to the
saloon, which is viewed as being
one of if not the greatest evils as
promoter of crime. The saloon Is
indefensible. 1t is an absorber ano
not a producer of revenue, except

"Since our last meeting am pleased
to report that only seven members
have been fined-four for having
grouches, two for complaining about
the weather and one for running down

us who indulge in the useless. weak

it becomes negative and evil. As for
