lean crowd which, as Dulcinea would

a fat American to the clerk within.
The former was in a fever of excite
ment, hopping his bald head.
"Neuf heures," answered the clerk

man, his eyes popping from his head.
That day was devoted to passports.
When I found that no checks were
being cashed that morning, l staked
all my hopes of leaving Paris on the
few dollars which my friend had ex-
tracted from the American Express,
and we set out for the American en-
bassy to get passports out Of Paris,
which, after l got it, was never even
seen.
We walked for hours in search of
the embassy, and en- route, picked up
another woman and Spanish man,
both bound for the same elusive des-
tination The American crowd was,
as usual forming lines. This time, it
was for numbers which would entitle
the holders to a place in another line,
where passports were being doled
out.

TIES THAT BIND

Constant attendance upon the
services of the sanctuary binds the
hearts Of men to the best things as
with chains of gold. We do not
want fetters to bind US to evil
things. We do not wish to be
bound to unjust and tyrannical
masters. But we greatly need to
be bound to the best things, the
best thoughts. the best ideals, the
best principles, the best life. We
covet fetters which will hold US close
to these things. Such fetters are
forged In the house Of God.
Memory is a tie that binds. The
memory Of early days when father
and mother and all the children took
sweet counsel as they journeyed to
the house Of God together, when
they sat together in the same pew,
listened to the same message Of life,
sang together the same songs Of
praise, bowed together at the mercy
seat and received the holy commun.
ion together, has saved many soul
in the hour of temptation, and has
brought back many wanderer to
the fold again. - Exchange.

CREED OF THE COUNTRY

Rural life is coming into its own
and country life is beginning to be
appreciated again after several dec
AIDES of disfavor and neglect. The
following creed. which is being
adopted as the slogan of various
boys and girls clubs throughout the
rural sections of Texas and other
states, says the Ell Paso Times, shows
that the thought life of the country
is being directed into in natural
channels:
Il believe that the country which
God made is more beautiful than
the city which man made; that life
out of doors and in touch with the
earth is the natural life of man. |
believe that work is work wherever
| find it, but that work with nature
is more inspiring than work with
the most intricate machinery. ! be-
lieve that the dignity of labor de-
pends not only upon what you dc,
but on how you do it; that orpor-
tunity comes to boy on the iarm
as often as to a boy in the city, that
life is larger and freer and happier
on the farm than in town; tt at m
success depends not upon my loca
ton, but upon myseIf-nOt only
upon my dreams, but upon what |
actually do, not upon luck, but upon
pluck. believe in working whec
you work and playing when yvU
play, and in giving and demanding
square deal in every act of life -

PAVING WAY FOR PLUMBER

The ship-subsidy lobby now active
In Washington has other induce
ments Than money and favor, |, is
| all things to ali men. No motive,
no prejudice, no weakness, escapes
its notice. Congressman who can
be influenced by personal or political
! considerations do not have to be
bribed.
If we were to catalogue the ele-
ments to which the lobby that asks
million or so z Y ar at Panama is
making its appeal. The result would
be:
/. Those who support subsidies
on principal.
2. Those who can be persuaded,
perhaps by corrup; methods, to sup
port subsidies. ....
5. Those who, having been tricked
into support of this subsidy, do not
like to admit their error.
4. Those who hold a cioctored
party platform superior to reason
and right.
5. Those who are incurahle
jingoes, some merely reckless, some
| financially interested in war.
6. Those who yield dizziiy 10
spread eagleism.
7. Those of Irish antecedents or
connections who have an inherited
antipathy to Great Britain.
s. Those who for other reasons
are Anglophobists.
9. Those who are hostile to over
land railroads.
10. Those who dislike the adj
vocates of peace.
IL. Those who think there is
Presidential coercion.
IL. Those who are tied up in
log-rolling combinstions-the dem
agoaues as well as the accelerators.
l3. Those whose ambitions have
been defeated by the President and
who are bent upon revenge.
Ia. Those who ask: Shall we
not do as We will with our own, re-
gardless Of obligations to others?"
l5. Those members of the minor.
ity who would like to break down
the Wilson Administration and dis
rupt the Democratic party.
1t will be seen that the resources
of the lobby are formidable, DOT its
program is even more pretentious,
The million or so year which it
hopes for at Panama is the smallest
part of its expectations. ...
A lobby that can compel the United
States to violate treaty, thereby
assuming an attitude of hostility to
all the world; that can induce Con.
gress to put monopoly on the free
list at Panama, and that can commit
the Democratic party to subsidies,
which it has always fought, will not
fail to be heard from later on.

paltry million. twill be for a hun
