of recent years reaction against rea-
son, an avowed worship of instinct and
tradition and even prejudice. The
doctrines of this reaction are within
themselves fascinating, and they have
been preached by fascinating writer's.
The way of instinct and old habit Is
so full of ease,so facile and strong and
untroubled! Look at the faces of men
who are wrapped up in some natural
and instructive purpose. Look at a
dog chasing his prey, lover pursuing
his beloved, a band of vigorous men
advancing to battle, a crowd of friends
drinking and laughing. That shows us,
say the writer's aforesaid, what life
can be and what it ought to be. Let
us not think and question" they say.
Let us be healthy and direct, not
fret against the main current of in
stinctive feeling and tradition
In matters of art such habit OF
mind may be valuable; in matters OF
truth or of conduct it is, l believe,
as disastrous as it is alluring.-Gilbert
Murray in the Atlantic.

The Front Seats

They are fearsome things-the front
seats.
We mean, of course, the front seats in
the churches, on Sunday.
The fear Of them is well-nigh univer-
! sal. and is not easily accounted for.
Hardly any of us feel like stalking II
back seat" for anybody else-except on
Sunday, when our desire to be at the
head of the procession Disappears and the
back seats look good to us.
In most of the churches there are not
enough back seats to accommodate all
who want them. This is defect which
church builders of the near future ought
to bear in mind.
Too many front seats are bad thing
for any church-unless they are filed.
Front seats that are filled are an orna-
ment to a church, and we have never
heard of a preacher who objected to
such decorations.
A church with many front seats should
have first-class acoustic properties and
preacher with fair lung power.
Some people have an idea that the
front seats are reserved for the preacher
and his family. This is a mistake. The
preacher doesn't need the front seats.
He prefers the back seats-and they
ought to be religiously set apart for his
use.
Economically speaking, the distance
between the preacher and the first row of
his hearers is too often equal to twice or
three times the distance between fhe
back seats and the door.
Better acquaintance tours" to the
front seats, organized and conducted by
the ushers, might prove beneficial in maxi
ing the near-the. pulpit locations more

Some Typographical Errors

Every week the paper-tbis paper or
any other-has typographical errors; I'D
there is always some one ready to laugh

grins sun-grin as if he liked it, because
he knows the utter futility of explaining.
| Then he goes back to the shop and bites
nail in two or eats woody worm to re-
| ieve his feelings and finally wonders how
his tormentors would feel should he turn
critic and point out the typographical err
rors so to speak in the makeup of the
holarious ones. For instance: hon. Jehu
jenkins shaves himself and last Sunday
appeared at church with patch of I'M
shaver whisKers under the angle of his
jaw the size of a grown mans thumb;
Sis Higgins has had her hat on crooked
and the shoestring on her switch showed
through what little real hair she has
left. The underskirt of the belle of the
village hung on one side full inch below
the bottom of her dress; Amri Toots, one
of our best known gents walked down
the aisle with long raveling hanging to
his coat tail; old Ebenezer Stone had
BACKED the front compartment of his
shoes until he could see his reflection in
them while his shoe heels had not had a
treatment since he bought them last
summer year ago and they bore traces
and the odor of the barnyard; Billy B.
Damn, who ordinarily does not give three
whoops for anything and doesn't care
who knows it, bIushed a rosy red when
walking with his best girl he produced a
washrag from his pocket instead of his
handkerchief; Miss Peachie Peacherino
who is risin' So and near sighted waited
a kiss to travelling man getting on the
train under the impression that it was
her brother who departed from our midst
on the same common carrier. As the
poet remarks we are all poor critters and
prone to errors of makeup even as the |
sparks fly upward and all good and true |
editors instead of impalling the kit and |
bundle on his harpoon to get good and
even for once and all, will again next |

is publicly roasted and let it 60 at that.
An editor hasn't much sense anyway. |

SMALL TAX PAYERS
LITTLE INTERESTED
Few Complaints Against Assess
ments Have Been Placed be-
for Equalization Boards

y
Olympia, August 16-Thus far, in
most of the counties only the individ
uals, firms, corporations and compan-
les, which might be termed the big
taxpayers have appeared before the
various boards Of equalization in re-
gard to the changing of assessments
for taxation purposes, according to
report, although the meetings have
been much advertised throughout the
various counties. While the officials
are said to be hopeful that the final
consideration of the various budgets
will bring out more taxpayers, thus
far except in few Of the counties
where taxpayers organizations have
been formed, little interest appears to
be felt. The legislature Of 1915 re-
duced the budget for state expenses
by approximately $500, 900, and it is
stated that if the taxpayers would see
to it that the various county, school
district and city budgets were cut
down to an economical figure, that
there is an opportunity to save sever
al millions Of dollars next year in
tayes.
