mistake of Geology and Science
we will correct the mistakes of
many critics and cover many
technicalities.
Some OF the best Geologians
says, that in those periods, there
Was two creations of animals and
plants simula to each other, yet
the one inferior to the other. The
one belonging to one period and
the other belonging to later
period.
And we now say that while
Geology ard Science has grasped
the distinction of those two ami
mails, they have failed to grasp
the cause of this distinction -
This leaving a mighty chaos and
leaves the truth enwrapped in
darkness.
But turning TO our Hebrew
Bible, we find that eight periods
are spoken of, in the place Of
seven, And by Geology. and
Science conglomerating this
eighth period into the seven.
This brings them to where
they have one If the creations

ingly exacting upon time, and means,
not SO much talent. Yet you seldom
hear of man or woman growing
weary enough to resign any social
position. Yet it is a common thing
for men and women to resign official
position in the kingdom of God on
earth. Growing weary in well doing.
Sign of Retrenchment.
Whenever any man or woman be-
gins to retrench in service to the
church of God and to humanity, that
person has become spiritually diseas-
ed. The less a person does for the
church of God, the less he is inclined
to do. The man who attends the serv-
ice of the church only occasionally
finds it more difficult to attend even
occasionally. The less a man gives to
the cause Of God, the harder it is
for him to give. A man contracts in
character in a greater degree than
he retrenches. He is becoming a
smaller man, and hence is a smaller
world, the little world of selfishness.
In proportion as we become less
/ Christ-ike in our characters, do we
become more selfish, come to be the
incarnation of selfishness with all of
its attendant evils.
Why grow weary? There are causes
for becoming wearied in well doing
Sometimes the WEAKNESS arises from
false pride. Sometimes the ingrati-
tude Of people makes those who are
doing good grow weary Of their eff
forts. Sometimes apparent failure to
accomplish things desired. But more
often it is because we fail to wait
upon God. The neglect Of Christian
duties, the neglect Of private devo-
tons viii be sure to resuTt in spirit
ual weakness, and hence spiritual IA
tigue.
Only by keeping in touch with Him,
who is the Fountain Of Life, can we
stay true and brave all of life's day.
Jesus alone can make life new every
morning and fresh every evening.
Encouraging promise, eve shall
reap, if we faint not" The reaping
depends altogether upon continued
perseverance in well doing. Our COM
mission reads until death, "Be thou
faithful unto death and will give
you the crown Of life." Whenever we
have finished our task, God will give
US relief from toll in the grave, and
until then, we are to labor, to watch
and pray. God has no use in this
world for idle hands, or brain or
wealth. These talents are to be in use
until he comes and calls for a reckon
ing.
The prize of life. viii be won only
by those who do not give up, do not
repine, do not retreat; but labor on
until the close of day.
Go labor on; spend and be spent;
Thy Joy to do the Fathers will.
It!is' the way the Master went.
Should not the servant tread it
still"

SAUFLEY'S REMAINS

FRIENDS PRESENT, AND MANY
FLORAL OFFERINGS.

A military escort conveyed the re-
mains of Lieutenant Rowan C. Saufley
to the train yesterday morning, for
shipment to Stanford, KY, his old
home. Mrs. Sa1fley and her brother,
]. B. O'Rear, accompanied the re-
mains. The procession to the station
was an impressive one. Composed of
two companies of marines and band
from the North Carolina, the cortege
proceeded up Palafox street, and out
Garden.
Immediately behind and on both
sides of the body, a guard of honor
marched, composed of officers from
the flying school in full dress, and
wearing mourning. The pallbearers
marched single file on either side of
the casket, and were Captain Muslin,
Lieutenant Whiting, Lieutenant Bel
linger, Lieutenant Peynton, DIR. Cottle
and Lieutenant Spencer.
The caslet was covered with the
American flag, and upon the folds of
his country's banner rested the floral
offerings of his friends. Many hand
some floral designs were waiting at
the station, and filled several large
crates. All were shipped to Stanford
where the burial services viii prob.

PLANS MAT Urine
FOR SUMMER CAMP
IN PENSACOLA now
TENT CITY AT BAYOU GRANDE
PLANNED BY STEPHEN LEE
OUTLOOK FREDERICKSBURG
TIONs ALREADY MADE.

The summer camp planned for PEN
sacola is already growing and Will pc
opened towards the latter part OF the
week, according to Stephen Lee, the
promoter of the resort. Much inter-
est has been shown in the develop
ment of Pensacola as summer re-
sort as well as winter resort and
with the first step taken it is not ex-
pected to be long before well devel-
oped colony is situated on the shores
of Bayou Grande.
The location for the camp is said
to be ideal and will afford ample OPP
portunities for fishing, bathing, boat
ing and all out door sports. One of
the features of the place is the vichy
springs water, strong in mineral,
which is expected to be the great at
traction.
Many Pensacolians have already ex-
pressed their wishes of occupying
some of the tents, and with thescom-
pletion of the plans and actual con-
struction work begun, it is expected
that there viii be no difficulty in
taking care Of a large number Of
guests.
In speaking of his plans to The
Journal yesterday, Mr.. Lee stated
that it is his intention to assume the
supervision of the camp and assist in
organizing pleasures parties for the
entertainment of the campers. Shower
baths will be installed for bathers
after bathing in the bayou and gen.
eral assembly tent for the use of all
viii be erected.
The plan of construction is such
that it viii be possible to make any
necessary addition to the whole with

Wrecking crews came in response to

The car plunged from the track

themselves to the axle. No one was
injured in the least, there having been
but half dozen passengers on No. 16

"And let us not be weary in we'll

There is such thing as physical,

tire human family has common ey-
perience in physical fatigue. All of
those whose avocations in life cal
for mental effort know the WEAKNESS
OF mental effort. Only that class OF
humanity that labors for the uplift of
mankind, the betterment of the condi-
tion of the world in which men live
and the salvation of human souls
krows anything of spiritual fatigue
This class is very small compared to
the other two classes.
