TODAY'S BIRTHDAY PARTY
Summer.


 This is the first day of that season which is hailed by some as the good old Summer time," although many people, and especially those given 10 eunbonpoint, describe it with an ad- 1ecttve quite the reverse of good. The Summer solstice, which marks @he bez4uninE of Summer, is astro- nomicaIIy speaking the time when old soI seems to enter the tropic of Can rzr This is true, of course. only in the northern hemisphere. AS in inc southern half of the world the z,,r's entrance into Cancer marks the bezfnnins of Winter. From now on' iY, ttsis part of the world, the days win begin to grow shorter. Tne longest day in New York lasts about f7fteen hours. Montreal has SIX teen hour day. At Tornea, in Fin la.nd. the sun will shine today Tor aibolrt trventy-two hours. or tho great cities of the world. St. Peters burr has the longest day, nineteen hours. while StockhOlm's day IS now about eighteen and three quarters hours in. duration. At Bardo, Nor -va-r. fhe. sun has been shining unin- ! ferrupte6ly for a month, and will i~orTtinue to be on the job a month Ionwer. At Reikjavik, the capital of Iceland, the day, is twenty hours long. and in the northern part or Ice land the sun will continue above the horizon for a week.

prisoned me"
 In the, Atlanta prison the author was employed in the printing office and as editor of Good Words, the prison paper. In that publication he summed up his opinions of crime, criminals and their punishment in the following paragraph:
 ''Men are terribly aHke-the best and worst of them. Heredity and circumstances seems more than a match for the individual. Yet when crime is committed, it is the individ- ual and not the heredity and circum- stances that we punish, but if hered- ity and circumstances are guilty, how cen the punishment of the individual benefit anybody or anything?"
 In the prison paper Hawthorne published a number of verses, rang ing from grave to gay, although his humor lacked the quality of savage wit displayed by Roland B. Moli- Murders Home Journal" published. in the death cell of Sing Sing prison where the now famous playwri g1at spent many months face to face with death, before his second trial brought acquittal. "FootfaIls,'' inspired by the restless tramping of men above his head during the still watches of the night. is a. specimen of Hawthorne's prison muse:
 In the cell over mine at night
 A step goes to and fro, From barred door to iron wall,
 From wall to door hear it go,
 Four paces heavy and slow, In the heart of the sleeping jail,
 And the goad that drives I know. I never saw his face nor heard him
 speak
 He may be Dutchman. Dago. Yankee. Greek;
 But the language of tNat prison'd step
 Too we'll know; Unknown brother of the remorseless
 bars,
 Pent in. your cage from earth and sky
 and stars,
 The hunger for lost life that goads
 you so
 I also know.

large and that it is possible under conditions now existing in China for a legislative body capable of effect i've action. to develop. there is no req son to suppose that China may not take successfully it's first steps along the road of constitutional government under this revised proviSi ona1 consti- tution-as has already been indicated in Japan under a similar instru- ment.
 'tOf course the success of the Re- vised Provisional constitution, as to any constitution that might at this time be a,doptedt, depends on the ac- ton of the president. The express ion of any views with regard to the presidents attitude must be largely lief. It is my belief and opinion that the president is sincerely desir- ous of contributing to the establish ment of form of representative government whichewiII permit China to solve the problems that are before her. President. Yuan is, of course, unaccustomed to the forms and prac- ticeS of constitutional government as it is seen in Europe and America Fl must also be guided in much that he does by those who are about him aud
 must make use of the means which are at his command. He is naturally inclined to take a conserv alive rath- CT than radical view of the situa- tion. And the disorders in the coHn-- try prove that such an attitude on his part is correct.
 CT. feel sure that he wishes to give China a form Of government that will permit nf the representation and e-- pression of the views of the import ant and influential classes of the con- .nunitJ. The Chinese people have been accustomed to personal gov ernment and not the rule Of law
 FIere is a. point in favor Of the new constitution. It lays stress on per sonal government as contrary to the legislative method which the reVoIu- tionists attempted to. establish. This is in the nature of evolution and not radical and cangerous change

TOUGH, ISN'T IT?
(By Dr. D. F. Bower. )


 Four gentlemen of impeccable p11y- sica1 responsibility, mailing from the right 1ittla tight little island, succeed ed recently in beating four other gen. l t1emen, who proudly boast American lineage. in the gentle art of knocking a small ball over ten acre lot.
 It was a sad and disheartening moment-all the more lugubrious and tear ar-compelHng-as we cans all Americans of Irish, Jewish, Ger man and other extraction) have lost a certain cup, which has been in the family quite a number of years.
 Tough, isn't it2
 To think that four men-who never did a stitch of useful work in their lives, who are husky little parasites hanging on by their front teeth and hngernails to a lifetime of ~syco- phancy-should best four equally use less and persistent parasites in knock ing 8 ball aroud a. field!
 They say the King cabIed his con- dolences.
 But what he, should have done would have been to convey some ex- pression of his contempt for any race of bipeds that amble around, diHgent- 1y seeking between the legs of Co., lossus a, place where they might find themselves quiet and .unmolested graves
 This, when they should be devot- ing some little time and a share of the mental energy they waste worry ing about polo, in worrying about themselves.
 If the millions who spent in the ag- gregate scores of millions of hours in discussing this useless and trivial po- To match, were to devote the same amount of time and energy to aScer- taining the causes of social unrest and ascertain some practical means of correcting this unrest-as, for in stance giving each man and woman an opportunity of holding his or her job, and receiving the full return of all they produce-it might be well worth while.
 But brains, constructive1y used, are the rarest things in the world That is why we go crazy over polo matches and a hundred other trivial time and energy-wasting devices-the worst ef- feet of which is to keep us from thinking.
 For whether we win or lost, we lose anyhow. Although the most of us don't knowNit yet.

Free State forces in the war with fhe pro-slavery ''Borcer Rufhans.
 Kansas and Indiana will join today 4n fnoncrfng the memory of Lane on 4he centemnary of his birth. Law lrenceburE, Ind, was his native town -vg,ara he wa@sborn on June 22s 1874. He became 6. lawyer, but when the war between the United States and 7feuico broke out. he enlisted as private. He was soon promoted to he, colonel of an Indian regiment, and tT-ornuranded a brigade at the battle or l7suena Vista After the war he was elected neutenant- t-governor Of his na- tive state. and later was sent to Con @ress-
 Lane removed to Kansas when the hitter struggle between the forces for and against slavery was just beg1n- ~4rwt In Congress he had voted for the Kausas-N -NeDraslxa Dill, ana Tor ffrne he remained ''one the fence" He was a member of the two rival con- stituttonal conventions. at Topeka and ae Isearenworfh, but he soon cast Tn his lot with the anti-slavery or Free State party. He was chosen presi- dent of the Free State convention held at Topeaxa. in 1855, and the following wesrr was elected United States sena- tor, but, as the pro-slavery forces, 1,acI1ed up by armies of Misgourians, -zere4then in the saddle, Lane was not ueru1atted to go to washington. Tn fhe meantime, from all parts of the East and central West, parties of an ti-slavery immigrants were pouring into Kansas to assist. Lanes John Brown, and the other Free State leaders i'm their conflict with the Mis- sour1ans-. Lane led a party of 500 northern innni grants, known as Lanes s'axmy of the North" and en- tered the .terrttory through Iowa and Nebraska For several years Kan sas was given over to battle, murder and piIlage, but the Free State party eventually triumphed, and in 1861 Lane was elected to the United States Senate. His health had failed, how ever, and he became a. physical and rneufad wreck, and in 1S66 he com Tnitted suicide at Leavenworth.

Encouraged by their success sagaaust the invaders, the people of both cities repudiated the authority eof GpaMn in 1810, and under the lead RersRrED off such brave patriots as Gen Eeral San Martin, Admiral GuiIlermo kBrown, Don Manuel Belgrano and 1GeneraI Jose Artigas, drove the 9Spaulards from the country.

Obituary.

Robert Wayne, son of G. G. and
Minnie Redkey, was born July l, 1913
His coming brought much joy. Only
few months before the Death Angel
had claimed the baby of the home and
lef. the household lonely but the new
baby helped dispel the gloom. Little
did the fond parents think as they
lavished their affection on him that
their hopes were once more to be
blighted but the Master saw that he
had need of him and at p. m on
Tuesday, June %, 1914, he gently
folded him to his breast and took
him home.
His stay on earth was brief, a few
days less than one year, but 1t was
long enough for his cunning ways and
sunny smiles to win him many friends.
Early last spring when the cradle roll
was organized in the M E. Sunday
School his name was among the first
entered on the list and now he is the
first to be promoted to the Heavenly
roll. The family circle is broken once
more but as we think of the number
on earth growing less let us remember
that another pair of little feet is added
to the number treading the golden
strand and that now two pair of baby
hands instead Of one are reaching out
beckoning their loved ones to Heaven
