The deepest kind of cleanliness we seldom hear
spoken of, cleanliness of soul And yet we often
refer to people as being "whoe-soued." We mean
that those people have the gift of yielding
themselves completely to their generous i'm
pulses. The whole-soulcd people may usually be
found among those who possess cleanliness of soul
For cleanliness of soul identification of the
spiritual nature with the regenerative forces that
make for right living, for enlightenment and for
the welfare of the whole 1t is only here and
there, among the great leaders, that we can find
notable evidences of cleanliness of soul. And yet
it may exist all about us, among those who, with
out being in any way conspicuous, nevertheless
in harmony with the spirit of truth
The Washington herald., 1914-12-18

Love for cleanliness of mind however, has to
be encouraged and developed exactly like love for
cleanliness OF body. And just as cleanliness OF
body is related to economic conditions so is clean
illness OF mind. For there are Unquestionably those
who, driven by the lack of opportunity from the
wholesome expression of themselves in the world
of activity, resort to unwholesome expression
through the imagination. Perhaps only the doc
tors and the priests know how hideous the con-
sequences may be, how revolving, how menacing to
the future OF the race. When we come to appre-
ciate these consequences in all their horror, Bit
terly we shall realize shortsghtedness in main
tanning conditions that make them possible. And
quickly shall set about putting our civiliza-
ton in order.

There is another form of cleanliness that is
sometimes ignored, cleanliness OF outlook. There
are those who while perhaps clean in body and in
morals, nevertheless look out on life through a
musty consciousness. never thoroughly swept and
busted, never properly aired, never opened out to
the sunshine. Hence, so much of the loose, mis-
taken, involved, prcjudiccd thinking in the world.
Hence, much OF the foolish arguing the i'll feel
ing engcndered through differences of opinion the
wasteful division into hostile intellectual groups all
sincere. all misguided all working against one
another in the name of righteousness and progress.
Perhaps this kind OF intellectual uncleanlincss is
the most distressing.
If we could reach absolute intellectual cleanl-
we might find the way clear to reaching nearly
all the other kinds OF cleanliness.

An Enjoyable Affair

Without doubt one Of the most
enioyoble events of Halloween was
the surprise party at the home Of
Mrs. \. K. Brumley, near Biggers.
A party Of young people, and some
older ones, met at the home Of Mrs.
Willie Bigger. aud after a brief
discussing decided to 'hike" TO the
home oI Mrs BrumleY.
Arriving there, our esteemed hos.
tess literally turned the house over
TO us, and such a time as we did
have, playing cards, having "Aunt
Ann" tell our fortune, aud other
things too numerous TO mention.
The crowd consisted OF about forty
happy Youngsters and at the mid
night hour they walked to Biggers,
and we're all loud IN their praise of
Mrs. Brumley as an entertainer.

had forty and we are promised tina
