ONE MANS OPINIONS
BY N. D. COCHRAN


His Masters Work.-Speaking of
Rev. Elmer L. Williams, the Herald
says editorially:
$50 this minister of the gospel,
who is trying to do his duty and his
Masters work by helping to make
the world about him cleaner, who has
refused to be blinded by the outward
whiteness of the sepulcher to the
dead mems bones within, is charged
on the first pages of the evening
papers as law violator' merely be-
cause loose-ipped lawyer called
him So"
All this comes about from the
prosecution of Washington Porter for
owning building that was used as
a shady hotel. In order to get the
goods on the millionaire Porter, the
Rev" Williams accosted a woman
on the street-in fact, he solicited the
woman and persuaded her to go with
him and stool pigeon to the hotel,
in order that she might earn So,
which she said she needed.
And the Herald has the gall to call
this ''his Masters work. and ''help-
ing to make the world about him
cleaner"
There is nothing have read in the
New Testament or out Of it to indi-
cate that the Master was that kind of
a man. He never solicited women.
He never tempted them. He never
took them to shady hotel in order
to get the goods on somebody else.
On the contrary, when the woman
caught in sin was brought before
Him, and her prosecutors asked
judgment against her that they
might stone her, the Master. said:
LET him who is without guilt cast
the first stone" and when her perse-
cutors had skunk away, the Master
said to the woman: Neither do l
condemn you. Go and sin no more"

If he hadn't had a REV" in front
of his name, he probably would have
been. But he is reformer and can
get away with stuff like that.
However, l am glad the Herald
printed that editorial. 1t gives me
line on the Herald's outlook on life.
Personally, can see no virtue in
the detective who tempts a man to
commit crime in order to get the
goods on him, or in the preacher who
will tempt woman to sin in order to
get the goods on a millionaire who
owns property rented for immoral
purposes. .--
This particular minister, who is
trying to do his duty and his Masters
work by helping to make the world
about him cleaner" accosted a wo-
man on the street, persuaded her to
go to shady hotel with him, got two
adjoining rooms, took stool pigeon
with him, ordered beer and then fash
ed a STAR" and piled her with ques-
tons in order to get evidence against
the hotel
The woman went to the hotel, all
right. She expected to get So from
Rev. Williams. 1t didn't appear in
the testimony in court that she got
the So, but her name was dragged
into the mess and she has been hui
inflated and publicly pilloried.
Williams got conviction of the
millionaire owner of one shady hotel
i care nothing about that. But 1 do
think he played a low-down trick on
the woman; and l know nothing
about her at all except what appeared
in the evidence in court. .t-
Personally, would feel less shame
walking along the street with the wo-
man than with the man who lured
her to the hotel, even if the man does
call himself a minister of the gospel.
My opinion is not based on any,
thing loose-lipped lawyer said about

ART OF TREE SCULPTURE
Old English Custom That Called for the Cutting of Fantastic
 Shapes.

Very many years ago 1t was the fashion of England and on the con- tinent to have great gardens of ever green trees trimmed and clipped into curious and fantastic shapes. To such an extent did the craze develop that these gardens were filled with crouch ing lions, pigs and even hens and chickens, all laboriously sculptured from living green and kept in trim by constant use of the knife and the shears.
 A few of these gardens were es- tablished in this country and one still remains in perfect condition. It is located on the famous Hunnewell es- tate at Wellesley, Mass, and is vis- ited by people from all over the world. The garden is on the side of a terraced hill dropping away to a beautiful little lake.
 Evergreens of many kinds are to be found there and each summer force of workmen with long ladders care fully prune and trim the branches in order to preserve the strange shapes which have been developed with the utmost patience.-Popular Electricity.

WOULD DO FOR THE RABBITS
oio Gun Effective Enough Since tho Animals Did Not Know of Its
 Condition.

Colonel Preston of Grand Beach, Me, tells this story about a new chauffeur he added to his household this year.
 Pats knowledge of auto mechanics is surprising, but like many another man he despises his vocation and yearns to be sportsman. The colonel possesses a collection of firearms of which he Is proud and this has been a continual attraction for Pat, who spends much of his spare time gazing Tn admiration at the guns in their glass cases and gently lingering them with loving care when permitted to polish them.
 One day he came to the colonel very bashfully and inquired, Colonel, dear, would yez be lettin' me hoy tn loan av this wan for this afternoon?"
 The piece was an old muzzle-loader of Civil war days, and his master, thinking that Pat wanted to play a joke on some one. and knowing that the gun could not possibly be fired, readily consented
 Toward evening he observed Pat, arrayed in full automobile toggery, trldging off toward the woods with the gun on his shoulder
 Where are you going, Pat?" asked the colonel.
 "Shure, sir. an O'm goin' ter hunt rabbits in tn woods beyant."
 But that gun is no good; 1t has been out of order for 20 years!"
 Faith thot may be, sir; but shure tn rabbits won't know thot!"

TEACH CHILD SELF-RELIANCE
Wise Parent Can IncuIcate Invaluable Quality at an Extremely
 Early Age.

One of the most valuable lessons that child can learn is that of self. reliance. A great many parents think that this characteristic is inborn, but 1t Is not altogether so Of course, some children are more gifted in this respect than others, as it is largely a matter of personality but at the same time it is trait which the parent can do much to help the child to attain It Is certainly characteristic which will come into play in his later life more than almost any other, and, therefore, the less self-reliance a child shows in his early years the more careful the parents should be to help him develop it.
 There are many ways in which this can be inculcated, and once the idea is given the child will do much to de- as far as possible upon his own tai ents and abilities, and help him to cultivate them so that as early as pos sible he may depend upon them for his own support. Let him learn to find his way about alone and not be afraid to travel without the company of an older person, Teach him to plan things for himself.
 Let him learn to do things. Show him that you trust him and that you know you can depend upon him. This is very important, as child that feels that his elders have not confidence in himself and, therefore, seldom ac- complishes anything by himself-in short, he has not the quality of self reliance or self-confidence, and is not in a fair way of acquiring either one.
