The task of many churches is to
persuade one-tenth of the members to
cease from their criticism of the dea-
cons and of the pastor; two-tenths to
take their letters to churches of like
faith in the communities where they
at present reside; three-tenths to at
tend Sunday school, four-tenths to
read the Bible daily, five-tenths to con-
tribute to the current expenses of the
church., siX-tenths to worldwide mis-
sions, seven-tenths to attend the pray
er meetings, eight-tenths to study the
onward march of the kingdom of God
and to subscribe to the missionary
periodicals, rine-tenths to attend fami.

AN EXPLANATION.

The Register was one of the few
Texas papers that credited the South
ern States Cotton Corporation during
last year, and it may be that because
of its boosts the six Carthagenians
came to be the holders of participation
certificates. The Register should en-
tighten them on the subject.-Bryan
Eagle.
The editor of the Register was the
last of the six TO subscribe for a par
ticipation certificate and did so be-
cause he was assured that without his
help an organization could not be eff
fected in Pamela County. The other
five holders of certificates were not
Influenced by him. The scrip holders
have prospect of getting part, and
possibly all, of what their scrip calls
for, but the holders of the participa-
ton certificates have no such assur-
ance. Why they were ignored in the
reorganization of the corporation has
not been explained. This is all the
enlightenment the editor of the Regis
ter is able to give. If he never gets
back cent of the SIP he paid for his
certificate he will try to live on the
loss.-East Texas Register.

George Robinson of the Waco
Times-Herald says William Jennings
Bryan made the mistake of his life
when he accepted the position of Sec
rotary of State. Which one of his
life's mistakes? According to his
critics Bryan has made a million mis-
takes, but he's in the saddle today
and his policies are the policies of the
Wilson administration. He makes the
speeches of the Nation; his policies
are becoming the laws of the Nation;
he has grown rich since 1896; he has
an international reputation and his
"Prince of Peace" lecture is good for
thousand dollars a night. There is
no reason why Bryan should have a
crouch. The Democratic party has
been kind to him.-Fort Worth Rec

hearty cooperation of the business
men and people of Bryan in unfolding
this much to be desired annual event.
The expenses are very heavy and the
college people have to back the propo-
sition in order to make it success.
A large number of visitors from the
schools over the State make it a
source of valuable publicity, and the
past experience warrants the Athletic
Club in anticipating very strong CO.
operation from the people of Bryan.
He asked that the B. & c. T. |. arrange
to run their train, and this was as
sured the time for leaving Bryan be-
ing practically 1880 p. m, in order to
reinforce the capacity of the interur-
ban and the automobile service. They
are hoping for 1000 people from
Bryan. No charge is made for auto
mobiles entering the grounds.
Prof. Potts then spoke at length,
supporting the wish for cooperation
from Bryan and suggested that the
business houses be closed Friday af-
ternoon in order to allow everybody
to go to College.
1t was then moved. seconded and
carried that a committee of five, to
consist of merchants and business

him from every other author in the

in some rare case it refers to some
book of his own. But the other day

eeived the following in his character

their New Standard Dictionary. 1t

warm to enthusiasm when stirred:

in Review

thrust aside belief in everything,
whose creed is destruction, and who
has enthroned self in the place of
God Such an one L saw in Ling, the
anarchist, the companion of Spies and
his fellows, executed for their perpe-
tration of the Haymarket massacre
in Chicago, many years ago. Spies,
Parsons and the rest were human, at
least, and one looked at them with
pity as they sat in the dock in the
Cook County Court House day after
| day. Spies, especially, was the type
of the German musician, mild, and
even intellectual in appearance, but
Ling was the overbrute the creature
whom one would at once stamp as
| the logical result of the teachings of
Nietzsche, and when later, on the eve
of the execution of the doom pro-
nounced by the noble Judge Gary one
saw this man blown to pieces in his
cell by his own bomb, one could not
but exclaim with Nietzsche:
ia, Ich weiss woher ich stamme!
Ungesatligt gleich der Flamme, A.
- Gluche und verzehr ich mich,
LIGHT wird alias was ich fasse,
Kohle allies was ich lasse;
Flamme bin ich siecherlichi"

Nietzsche.
Nietzsche's doctrine may be ex-
pressed in a very simple formula, He
argued that. since the softer quail
ties of compassion and humility-thc
truly Christian virtues-interfered
with natures law of the survival of
the strong, therefore they should be
stamped out; they were morality fit
only for slaves, and having no sur
vival value" they were harmful to
mankind.
Nietzsche is the philosopher of
protest, as Mr.. Carus says, and there
fore in this day his doctrines have
taken a firm hold of many persons
who rebel against the social, the po-
litical. the religious, and even the
scientific conditions of our civiliza-
ton.
Nietzsche, while aristocratic In his
own instincts, appeals, as Mr.. Carus
says also, most powerfully to the
masses of the people. His followers
are among those who believe in ha-
tired and hail him as the prophet of
the great deluge, and his most devout
admirers are anarchists, sometimes
Socialists, and, above all, those who
regard themselves as geniuses, but
who have failed to find recognition.
Mr.. Carus goes on to say that
Nietzsche's thought will prove veri-
table dynamite if it should happen to
reach the lowest masses of mankind,
the disinherited, the uneducated the
proletariat, the Catilinary existences.
Nietzsche's philosophy, indeed, is an
intoxicant to those whom he despised
most; they believe they see in him
their liberator and rejoice in his in
| vectives.
Mr.. Carus gives very judicial and
! impartial estimate of Nietzsche ant
| his philosophy. He shows that if tn,
ethics of the philosopher were ac
epted today the selfishness of man
kind would manifest itself in all its
naked bestiality. Then, after a prun
! ing on a grand scale and a few
bloody decades. those only would
survive who, either by nature or by
hypocritical self-control deemed il
best to keep the lower passions and
the too prurient instincts of theii
selfhood in check, and then the old
fashioned rules of morality would be
given a new trial in the new order Of
things. Then the Nietzsche type OF
overman, if it ever really made its
appearance on the earth, would be-
| wiped out as surely as the lion, tn,
king of beasts, which now has 6
chance for survival only behind the
| bars of the geological gardens of the
world.
| AS one reads Mr.. Carus's work ant
studies the portraits of Nietzsche a
different periods of his life until his
spirit was quenched in the gloom O
dementia one recalls the figure of {

Music No Mystery to the Blind.

At a recent conference on musical
education held in England one of the
subjects discussed was THE Creative
Faculty in the Pupil" A woman
teacher in an English normal college
for the blind said the basis of her in
struction was to get her classes to
think for themselves and to express
their ideas. She gave striking Illus
trations of her success.
On the platform at the conference
were pupils of the normal college in
age from seven to fifteen. After the
teacher had vocalized a phrase the
younger pupils not only repeated 1t,
but even went on adding until the
musical sentence was completed. They
also harmonized the cadences; that
Is. played them on the piano.
The elder children improvised on
short themes given by their teacher
and one boy ON a complex theme
given by the chairman of the confer
ference The latter played the theme
twice on the piano, and then the boy
started off without hesitation, pro-
ducing harmonies and developments
(not mere repetitions) Of the theme.
The fact that these children were
blind added to the wonder, since they
could not see the score to refresh
their memories.
