Robert S. Barrett. who said he repre-
scented his mother, Mrs. Kate Waller Bar

Great Temptation.

fering from diseases.

Of the whipping post as a punishment for

Hanging is none too good for them In

DIARY OF FATHER TIME

The present day efforts of some
people to start an agitation favoring
eugenic marriages and the movement
in several states to make the secur-
ing of marriage licenses more difficult
makes things quite different from the
conditions existing before the pas
sage of the English marriage law in
1854. Prior to that date, back as far
as 1916, Fleet marriages, or irregular
weddings, were performed without
license by needy clergymen, for fee
proportioned to the circumstances of
the bride and groom. Sometimes a
dram of gin was enough; at other
times the fees were exorbitant The
officiating parties kept the registers
of the marriages and they were not
admitted as evidence in court.

o. Every man his own mousse
painter"
This hand-painted MOTTO has been
the cause of heartbreaking, disap-
pointment, domestic anger and artis-
tic results which look like blending
strawberry pie with boiled spinach.
Painting a house with ones own
hands, without the benefit of profess
sional aid or clergy, looks very fas-
cinating.
The av. man thinks it would be per-
fectly grand to mix his own paints
with a deft, masterful hand, showing
a taste that would make this M. An
gelo fellow feel like a cheap dollar
a-day futurist.
Use the whole front of the house
as palette for testing out the diff
ferent color mixtures. Until you
have covered the wall of your resi-
dence with daubs Of such contrasting
shades as walrus-eye pink and morn
ing-after sepia, you cannot be in
position to Judge.
Always begin the job under the
caves. For this you will have to use
a long ladder and an accident insur-
ance policy. e.
Do not trust the strength of the
ladder until you have tested it. Climb
to the top carrying cookstove on
your back. Wear necklace of dumb
bells and scuttle of coal for hat.
Do not start up the ladder with
only one bucket of paint. Carry up
five or six buckets at once, and if
you have no other place for your
brushes tote 'em in your teeth.
Of course, this plan will not work
out so well if you have only two arms.

GENE MORGAN.

When you have completed the job
call your wife out to admire the mas
terpiece. Be careful she does not
carry mop handle when she comes
to express her criticism.
But if all goeth well, and if you
have damaged nothing but your
artistic reputation and your Sunday
clothes, get a board and nail it to
post. On this letter neat inscrip-
ton, such as "Brainstorm Villa" or
Rainbow Dump"
Having finished the house, you can
now begin painting the fences, tree
trunks, the garage, the rain barrel
and the hen coop. When you finally
drop, exhausted and color-blind, your
family will rejoice with great cry
and hue.
But you should worry like paint
bucket and be little pail.

BAPTIST ACADEMY
COMMENCEMENT
Commencement Sermon at First Bap.
fist Church-Class Day Exercises
at Colonial Theatre.

The commencement exercises proper
OF the Bryan Baptist Academy were
ushered in Sunday morning with the
commencement sermon by Rev. /. n
Langston, pastor of the Baptist Church
at Franklin.
The students of the school, with
members OF the faculty, occupied a
prominent portion of the church and
created a favorable impression upon
all who saw the splendid student
body. Friends OF the school had deco.
rated the pulpit and rostrum with cut
flowers and ferns, adding much to the
occasion.
DR.. Langston took his text from
|. Chronicles, 22:12: "Only the Lord
give thee wisdom" the words OF the
text being the valedictory address Of
a great king to great son-David to
Solomon Solomon was sent to do
great things, erect a temple to God
and solve the problems OF Israel. All
great men have been set to great
tasks, and so in the hands of the
youth OF today great trusts are i'm.
posed. They are the preservers and
custodians OF American institutions,
our schools, the long-loved principle
OF freedom which Schiller said was
the keystone OF the worlds great
art" They are to solve the problems
OF the trusts, the tariff, of the sa.
loon, OF labor, Of capital, and every
great question now engaging the
thought of our public men in State
and Nation.
Men have always been builders
declared the speaker, illustrating the
declaration with a long list of great
things that have been accomplished
by the worlds master builders, as an
inspiration to the young people before
him to be great builders in this life.
AS necessary equipment to become
great builders, the speaker outlined
the principal lines OF knowledge neces.
sary TO the task, mentioning a com.
plete knowledge of ones self-weak
points, strong points, our opportunities,
our aspirations, and above all.
knowledge of the truth as it is in
Christ Jesus.
Equipped with this knowledge we
can build great life, a great charac.
ter, temple that will stand amid the
shock, the fire and the smoke of col.
lapsing worlds, when time shall be no
more, and God with one foot on the
land and one on the sea shall so de-
clare it. II we have so builded we
shall stand in the last day, and that
we may become such builders. the
speaker closed the discourse with the
words of the text, only the Lord give
thee wisdom"
