ALTHOUGH
the sun beat down mercessly, many of these
tired pilgrims had spread a small scarf or shawl
across sticks and were sleeping in its shade
Still they continued to flock into the city, carry

highways round about Jerusalem were lined

Thousands of them had walked hundreds of

S WE crossed Palestine. riding over
those ancient byways that wind
through hill and dale leading to the
holy city, we were deeply impressed
by the pilgrims-not only by their
numbers but by their very air of
patient eagerness-as they trudged
the dusty roads footsore and weary.
AS we neared the city we knew that
Jerusalem was already filled to over
flowing with these pilgrims, because
the roads leading into the city were
lined on either side with crowds of
these pilgrims camping in the bitches,
with their pots and pans and bedding.

Loyalty In Civic Affairs
(Harold Buck, Portiand)

The subject OF Loyalty in Civic Az
fairs has TO do with our duties as
future citizens of the United States.
A citizen OF the United States as de-
fined by Webster includes every per-
son who has a right to vote and hold
property. But as this takes in SO
many people there must be a vast dff-
ference between citizens.
Thomas X. Marshall has said
There are three classes of citizens.
Those who obey the nations laws
through fear OF the penalties-men
who deal squarely because their law
yers tell them that they will lose
money and perhaps their liberty IL
they do not. tThese constitute the
lowest grade OF citizenship. Then
there are those who obey the law be-
cause il is the law; they have no re-
spect for il; they regard it as crude.
foolish, immaterial legislation but
their respect for constituted authority
induces them TO keep the letter of the
law regardless of their opinion of the
spirit of il. These constitute an i'm
proved class OF citizens But the citi-
zens of the third and highest grade
are those who make for righteousness.
They are the salt OF the republic.
These / am pleased 10 call automatic
citizens. They are men who realize
that with the right OF individual sue
cess in America has come the duty
OF the individual responsibility; that
they may go the limit in the way of
success, but that they must not injure
their fellow men. Not one OF them

Loyalty to Our schools

Edgar Foelker, Lake odessa
The school Is an institution organic
! ed for the mutual benefit and advan-
tages in the training Of its members,
and designed to produce better citi-
zens of the state. Let us take, for
example, an ideal school. 1t is place
where student meets in friendly fell
lowship with student and where all
exist in harmony with the instructors.
! II is a place where mental, social and
physical development go hand in
| hand.
/ In the schoolroom, all eyes are in
! tent upon their daily tasks, all feet
eager to do the teachers bidding.
Each mind seeks TO master the sub
ject in hand, not only because the
| lesson was assigned. which each
must learn or suffer the penalty. but
also because all are intensely inter-
ested, and thirsty for knowledge. They
| take a certain delight in solving the
problems and following the logic of
master minds with the keenest intelli-
gence. You will not find them oc-
cupied in writing silly notes or bent
on mischief: nor will you see them
with a guilty look or conscience. Their
brains are not clouded with tobacco
smoke nor their apparel scented with
its odious odor. They scorn to do
such things. They do not come to
school because they have to, but be-
cause they want to. They are stud
ents who are honest. conscientious in
their work attentive in class, prompt
on time and enthusiastic supporters of
their school. They honor and respect
their teachers. they love their class
mates This is a picture of what
consider an ideal school as regards the
students department in and about the
school.
And this is what all schools should
be like: but of course il requires CO.
operation to make il such. The stud
ents should be loyal; the teachers
should be loyal. Loyalty is fidelity or
devotion. Hence loyalty to schools
means that both teachers and pupils
are devoted to them. 1t further means
that the right spirit prevails, and that
students are not continually backbit-
ing and saying mean things about
each other. Each one should help
the other along by his support and
The school, is, as IL were, a great
machine, which, IL the least one of it's
parts is not in working order. IL fails
W . SiHVOtHty itSpObu W It's
utmost efficiency. Hence a school
will be most efficient II the spirit of
loyalty permeates every student and
every Instructor. Loyalty sets them
on fire with enthusiasm and makes
them full of school spirit. Spirit and
loyalty are practically the same. But
in order to have school spirit there
must first be loyalty and vice versa,
for the two are dependent upon one
another. Loyalty to our school con-
sists not only of being loyal during
school hours, but also at home and
abroad. No matter where we are we
can boost our school. On the football
field, on the baseball diamond, on the
track, in basketball-in all these
places we may show our loyal spirit.
This not only applies to the active
participants in athletics, but as well
to the student body and faculty. For
IL success is desired, the fellows must
be backed up by every member of
the school. The whole institution
should be out to support the players

Loyalty To the Sunday school and
Church
(Harold Caldwell, Belding)
Mr.. POSTMASTER:
This is a subject very vital 10 the
christian religion, a subject which
might be given a great expension Of
thought, for as | look at il the church
or churches as you may like. and the
Sunday schools, and | think the sun
day schools especially, are the founda-
tons of the best governments and the
best moral conditions existing. There
fore every church member should be
thoroughly loyal 10 the church of which
he is member, both in deeds and
thought. and in this loyalty he Should
be thoroughly honest with himself as
he cannot he dishonest with God. for
God knows all things. He should be
loyal to the church by giving literally
of his worldly goods, he should be
loyal TO the church by giving his best
and truest service by living an exem-
plary life and showing a true brother
~ love for both members of the
church and those who are not
members. He should take AN active
interest in all branches of the church.
he should take his christianity with
him in his business life. living true
christian each day with brilliant
smile, kind words, and charitable
deeds for his fellow men, having char
ity for all and malice toward none
These are a few of the things that
man should do and a few of the
ways he should live TO be a loyal
