BIRDS

People who believe there are no
birds, except sparrows and. jays, in
town should go visiting in the neigh
borhood of the National Cemetery.
Magnificent oaks abound there and
hooking birds delight to sing from
the tips of the highest branches with
always fine, careless rapture" and
never a sorrowful note Even at
night the hooking birds and Others
sing as if seranading the lady in the
moon. Then there are speckeled
breasted brown thrashers, cat birds
like pathetic little widows, thrushes,
Wrens and that sweetest of all birds
with the clear, resonant, bell-like
call which thrills us from it's dis
lance as all mysteries do,
Strolling in the cemetery Sunday
afternoon with small boy as chap

When Joel Chandler Harris was
a very young man he wrote
A poor mother bird IS often
lifted
From the storm-shaken bouSh where
she chung
And cruelty driven and drifted
Far away from her nestfull of
young;
While the same wind that buffets
and harries
This lone bird about in the west,
Lifts up on its bosom and carries
Another bird safe to its nest
And that reminds me that Mrs.
Cora Harris recently said: mo
man is the captain of his soul, nor
the master of his fate, and especially
no woman is"
That is proven by the fate of two
beautiful Norway pines growing in
the cemetery beside the driveway.
One had a number of is delicate
branches crushed off by the huge
limb torn by the wind from a neigh
boring oak. The other pine had its
trunk snapped off near the top eth
er by the wind or the limbs OF the
uprooted oak near by. These love-
ly trees were as innocent and as
helpless as the birds or as wives
of reckless men who drag them
down when they succumb to their
own ruin.
There is acknowledged to be only
step from the sublime to the re-
diculous and likewise from hero.
ism to fool-hardiness. To seek safe
ty from danger is wisdom rather

the bars of the coop to escape the
pecks of spiteful hen.
Why do those hymns Flee as a
Bird" and Rock of Ages thrill hu-
man hearts so deeply unless they
feel their need of help?
1t was Elizabeth Barrett Browning
who confessed to an instinct of in
competence" and she also wrote:
THE little bird flew east
And the little bird flew west
And I said it under breath
| All our life is mixed with death
And who knoweth which is best?
Then smiled to think Gods great
ness
Lies around our incompleteness
Round our restlessness His rest. "

locate the depot in the old town, or
else it would be located on the tract
purchased from Bob Simpson, con-

A courageous young preacher and
Sunday School teacher tracked .
hyena in human form through two
states and landed him in Jail and
is today restoring his prey-two
young girls-to their parents.
At Ryan lives a respectable but Il
very poor family named Doyal Mrs.
Doyal is washerwoman and her
husband is deaf and suffers other in
firmities that interfere with his
earning ability. In this family are
two girls, Pearl, aged 10, and Ruby
aged II. The Rev. Dan Curb, who
began his ministry in the Baptist
church in Carter county, is the pas
tor of the church where the DOyal
family worship, and these two par
ticular girls are in his Sunday School
class. One day last week the two
girls started alone to Wichita Falls
to visit relatives. They did not ar
rive when expected and the parents
were notified. They called in the
pastor, and Rev. Curb thought he
was sleuth enough to find them and
set about his work. He went %
Ringgold, where the girls changed
trains and found no trace of them.
He next went to Belcherville, a
small railroad town enarby, and there
he learned that two girls had been
in the depot there, they were seen
talking with a man and were seen to
leave with him and get in his wagon.
A description q the wagon was filed
away in the Uranium of the minister

SAVES TWO SUNDAY SCHOOL GIRLS

and he set out in haste on the trail
He could hear of the wagon, Dlt he
could see no one who had ever seen
the girls. Finally the trail led him
to Spanish Fort, Texas. Here he
saw a boy who had seen such a
wagon as Mr. Curb described and
had seen two girls in it. From
Spanish Fort the wagon was traced
to Petersburg, across the line in
Oklahoma and from Petersburg to
Leon. At the latter place the wagon
was left outside of town in a grove.
A show was in town and the man
who had charge of the girls had
taken them to the show. Here they
were captured by the minister.
The vulture in human form gave
his name, as c. d. Aulds. He claimed
to be an advance man for the ]. r.
Henry Dog and Pony Show, which
travels through the country in wag-
OHo anu SHONS dL lHe lhldnu tONHS'
Aulds and the girls were taken IN
charge by Mr. Curb. The girls were
placed in hotel in Marietta and
the man was placed in Jail under a
double charge of white slavery. The
bond in each case will be $1,000
chances are good for him to remain
in the shade until such time as his
trial comes up. The girls will be
taken from Marietta to Ryan and
restored to their parents.
The girls were kept in the wagon
from Saturday morning until Tues
day evening when the capture was
effected.
