KY, on Mill 7 Branch, about two
miles west of Morehead, Feb.
II, 1878. MY father was Will
Stewart who died when | was
three wears old, leaving a widow
and five children. The oldest less
than twelve and the youngest less
than one year old.
AT the time of my fathers
death he left small farm of
some thirty acres of branch land
and a small amount of mountain
land which was too rough for cul-

ment and much hard work on the
part of mother and her children,
she Kept us all together and We
lived most as well as those about
us, however our opportunity to
attend even tile rural schools was
very meagre, as it seemed that 1t
was necessary for us all to work
in order to make living.
When the writer was about
thirteen years old our mother
married the second time, to NJ. B.
Penny hacker of Carter County,
a farmer of wonderful energy
and industry, and a man that
was always kind to mother and
her children, and especially the
two youngest, my sister and my
self. Where we lived was well
out in the country, and no school
near savea small log school house,
known as the Penny hacker
school, and school was taught
there five months in the year.
The environment in that country
district, DIS in many Others at
that day, was not conductive TO
inspire hope, and desire to OBJ.
tain an education. However,
mother was always anxious for
her children to get an education,
though she had none herself. To
quote her exact words, she said:

so that you will not have to work
so hard all your life" My moth

mon sense, honesty, and virtue
and toiled hard that she raise
her children, until she lost her
health, and was an invalid until
her death when the writer was
eighteen years of age. Iwant to

go from home so was |. One
morning we both put out from
where we lived in Carter County
.afooi, TO our little farm on Mill
Branch, where we had moved
from at the time that mother
married, with a little black va.
lise and some clothes wrapped in
news paper. Our oldest broth
er lived on this farm at this
time.
My brother went away and
left me there, seeking other en-
ployment and here it was that |
experienced the loneliness of be-
jig without him, and the terrible
nome sickness came over me.
This was in time when strong
men could scarcely get work, and
for boy it was thing most i'm
possible, so | work ed for my old

went to face the world TO a liv.

than five dollars per month and

party was to board me through
the fall term of school, and was
to do work nights and mornings.
Then | went to stay with my un.

and then they were to board me

school began, and started in 0

until Wednesday on the next,
when one day my uncle came
home from trip with too much
"Red Eye" and fused with me
for not getting the cows up, or
rather failing to find them on this
particular evening, and | had a
talk with my aunt about 1T and
she said "He never would let his
own children go to school and |
am sure he won't let you go"
With this bit of important infOr-
nation, l bundled up and left at
ouce, so | went from there to my
married sisters where l got with
my brother again. He was going
to "a country school where he was
working nights and mornings for
his board, and he, through his
care for his younger brother, my.
self, found another place nearby
and gave me his place that could
work and go to school also. Be-

OF POWER
IS SUBJECT OF
DIR. BRODIE

"The Price OF Power" will be the
subject Of an address which DR.. An
Subject of an address which DR.. A. M.
Brodie will deliver in the Bijou the
alter tomorrow evening. commencing
at quarter to eight o'clock. This
win be the fifth Of the series of adj
dresses that Doctor Brodie has de-
livered In Honolulu under the aus
pices of the Inter-ChuFch Federation
and that he is popular speaker to
both men and women is shown by
the steady growth of the attendance
at these mass meetings. The last
meeting OF the. series viii be held
September Is.
The subject for the address tomor-
row evening is one which should at
tract attention among all classes of
people. Perhaps no other word is
used by the American people to
greater extent than is power. Every
one is striving to secure some sort of
power. Some are seeking it in the
political world, others in the materi-
81. All are inquiring about the power
to be gained through the cultivation
of the personality and through edu-
cction. Christian people are wanting
to know how they may gain more
power in their Christian living.
Just what Doctor Brodie will give
as the price to be paid if one is to
gain power, is a question which peo-
pie should be interested in. All men
realize that there is a price to be
paid, but that many men are failing
to gain the power they desire because
they are not able to discover just
what the price is. Doctor Brodie
speEks on subjects such as this with
considerable authority, since he has
proved himself to be q leader among
men.
A special musical program is being
arranged for the meeting, at which
Ernest Chase of Oahu college will
preside. The arrangement of the
pr gram is in charge of Chester
Thompson of the Kamehameha
school
After the discontinuance of the
present series of Sunday night mass
meetings in the Bijon theater, which
is being conducted under the auspices
of the Inter-Church Federation, it is
probable that the religious work com

AS Agency OF
/. PUBLIC HEALTH

"No social agency Is more earnesl
In IT'S demands upon the church fol
cooperation than public health. and
no agency offers a greater return fol
such cooperation" says DR.. Ennior
w. Williams, health commissioner OF
Virginia, in q bulletin just issued BY
the United States bureau of educa
ton. "Public health asks the church
to Join hands with it in giving men
better bodies. and It promises that
when mems bodies shall be stronger
their spirits win be nobler. Public
health asks Che church to assist it In
making sanitary the community to
which the church ministers; and II
pledges the experience Of the world
to show that when this is done. none
will benefit more than the church.
Other things equal, the healthy man
is the moral man, and the sanitary
community is the spiritual community.
..sThe first means of cooperation on
the part of the church is in preach
ing the dignity of the human person,
the sanctity of the individual. body.
This will enable the church to justify
the health oficer in his demand for
a sanitary community indeed,
make that demand irresistibly logical.
II the body is sacred. then the body
deserves sanitary surrounding and
depends upon it. The permanence of
our fight for better health must rest,
in part at least, upon an awakened
public conscience which will view
disease as second only to sin, cleanli-
ness as next to godliness.
"The church should. in a very prac-
teal way, illustrate the necessity of
sanitation by being itself model of
sanitation. It should be well yenti-
lated, well kept, supplied with proper
outhpuses and with a safe supply of
drinking water. Many of our rural
church fall far short of this. Cleaned
only when filth becomes unbearable,
ventilated by chance or accident. gen.
orally without any outhouses and sup
plying water from a rusty bucket and
a dirty tin Upper the church often
times is a focus of Infection. If ii
is to stand as the evangel Of good
health, IT must be sanitary. If Ii is
to preach the gospel of fresh air, it
must be well ventilated"

TWO KINDS OF POLES.

There are two kinds of poles: the north and south poles, which are the terminal points of the earth's axis and the magnetic poles, which are the points on the earth's surface where the dipping needle stands pre- cisely vertical that is, where the dip is 90 degrees at the north mag netic pole, the north end of the dip ping needle pointing vertically down wards, and at the south magnetic pole. the south end of the same needle pointing vertically downwards. Owing to the peculiar magnetization of the earth the magnetic poles are not diametrically opposite. A straight line drawn from one to the other would miss the center of the earth about 75O miles. The north magnetic pole is in latitude 70 degrees min utes north and longitude 96 degrees 46 minutes west, and the south mag netic pole in latitude 72 1-2 degrees south and 155 1-2 degrees east Christian Herald.

THE RUSSIAN WAY

The funeral of the Russian bri- gand, Kossowski was a great event. Several hundred thieves from the neighboring towns assembled at the grave. and when the coffin was low cred fired off revolvers as last sa- lute. The police however, were not idle. They gathered in a cordon out side the cemetery and arrested 162 of the outlaws after a determined battle.
