PROBLEMS OF
Church FORM
sermon TOPIC
Or. William Henry Fry Delivers
an interesting Address to
: Methodist Congregation

Some Of the problems of the modern
church formed the topic OF an interest
ing and instructive address delivered
in the First Methodist church Sunday
by DR.. William Henry Fry, Superln-
terdent of the Methodist. missions in
Hawaii Doctor Fry recently return
ed from an extended tour Of the main
land. 49,
Doctor Fry pointed out that, with
the spread of religion there has come
closer sense of brotherhood that is
binding nations together. He contin-
ued, in part: .....-. .
The development of the church
is the outstanding miracle OF the
ages. Standing in the midst of his
terrified disciples and under the very
shadow of the cross Jesus said AS
my Father sent me so send you The
result of this command brought the
experience of Pentacost with its 5000
members and a little later 5000 more.
We may not be agreed as to what
constitutes the problem Of the church.
Some doubtless think that If We can
just get a man converted We have
done our duty by him. Our duty to
the Oriental in Hawaii has not ended
when We induce him to give up his
religion-if he ever had any-and ac-
cept ours. He must be taught the
right relation between male and fe-
male, parent and child, citizen and
state. These people are here by our
invitation and We have not done our
duty by them until we make it pos.
sible for them to earn their own live
lihood in terms of industry and hon
or. The old cry was let us build up
the church. but the new one is let the
church build up the community
church's Real Problem ill.,.
THE duty of our local church in
this community is to promote evangel-
ical Christianity and lend itself to our
local missionary problem. What we
need is not less activity but more
piety, not less law but more love, not
less preaching and singing but more
righteous personality on two legs. The
real problem of the modern church Is
to build the principles of good will and
neighborliness into all the human re-
lations of life. The church must prove
to the world that the only thing worth
having is heart that loves. -.
When we glance at the world and
its happenings today we can see that
the nations of the world have not been
preaching a gospel of love. Has Eu-
rope done it? Or have they preached
the gospel of the biggest army. navy
or bank account. Recount the tragedy
CT Mexico and Europe and we are
forced to conclude that the most I'M
pelling thing before us in recent years
has been a struggle for adventure.
Let US preserve the genius of our
national ideals and hold to the things
in which our greatness lies but let US
be bound together in one blessed bro
therhood. The church must proclaim
this to the world, for if she doesn't,
who will? The very genius OF our
Christianity is seen in its ability to
do this very thing. The world has not
learned Christ's lessons of brotherli-
ness and the principles of good will.

BLAST OPENS ANOTHER

Bits of Local History.

Steam drills and dynamite have

compartment of the old cave. The
opening appears about two-thirds up
the breast of Bushey's limestone
quarry and is plainly seen from trains
on the Western Maryland railroad.

observed the cavity in the rock wall.
The opening is about 10 by 20 feet
and 80 feet from the bottom of the
wall Quarrymen have explored the
assure and have found it about II
feet in height and so feet in depth.
There are small apertures in the far
end which evidently communicate
with other compartments of the cave.
The cavern. from which Cayetown
took its name. opens some GOO or
zoo feet north Of the opening in the
quarry wall. This cave has long
been known far and wide, and before
the discovery of luray was regarded
as second only, perhaps, to the Nam,

The Man in the Moon

great many curious ideas exist in various
parts of the world regarding the dark spots
in the moons disc. In the eastern part of
Asia the spots are believed to be a rabbit
or a hare; the Chinese, in particular look
upon them as a hare sitting up and pound
ing rice in mortar. Most of the Siamese
take the same view. Some few, however,
see in the moon a man and woman working
in a field. Curiously enough, the North
American Indians have almost the same
superstition as the Chinese; and on old
monuments in Central America the moon
appears as a jug or vessel out of which
an animal like a rabbit is jumping.
The South American Indians, on the 9th
er hand, believe that girl who had fallen
in love with the moon sprang upward to it,
was caught and kept by it, and that it is
her figure which is seen on the moons
face.
The Samoa islanders look on the spots as
representing woman carrying child; and
many other southern peoples have similar
beliefs the woman and child sometimes be-
ing altered into an old woman bearing bur-
den on her back. The Eskimos have an
day Amiga, the moon, chased his sister, the
sun, in wrath; just as he was about to catch
her, however, she suddenly turned around
and threw a great handful of SCOT in his
face, and thus escaped him; and of that SCOT
he bears the traces to this day.
The inhabitants of northwestern India,
who account for the moons disappearance
by declaring that she is burnt UP regularly,
and replaced by fresh moon explain the
dark marks by saying they are the ashes
of the former moon.
Other nations explain her disappearance
in various ways; the Dakota Indians have it
that she is eaten up by mice; the Polyne-
sian superstition is that the souls of the
dead feed on her; according to the Hotten-
tots the moon suffers from headache, and
when it gets very bad she hides her head
with her hand and covers UP her face from
the gaze of the world; the Eskimos main
tain that after shining for three weeks she
gets tired and hungry, and withdraws to
take one enormous meal, after their own
fashion, and then reappears and begins to
shine again.

The Community Pessimist.

There is in Oklahoma a little town call
ed Kusha, and the secretary Of the CONNER
cial organization there says any man who
becomes pessimistic will be banished from
the community. He spoke jestingly, OF
course and yet he voiced the feeling which
is usually held toward the community pes
simist The latter has always been consid-
cred persona non grata by any and all towns.
He constitutes an undesirable anomaly.
Posted on the inside of every guests room
in country hotel of which we know is
neatly printed placard which has this to say:
Don't kick. There are four other
hotels in town, and eight passenger
trains leave every twentyfour hours"
1t is a way the proprietor has of saying
if you don't like his hotel you are not oblig-
ed to stay there.
The same may be fttingly said of the
community pessimist. This is one Of the
reasons why he is regarded so unfavorably
and impatiently He doesn't have to live
in the town he decries. Nor should he. Two
courses are open, and one of them should
be pursued-either he should do his mans
part toward the upbuilding of the town in
which he lives or he should leave it and
make his home in some other community
which he can conscientiously believe in and
recommend.

Women and School Boards.

The Savannah Press and the Augusta
Chronicle favor the placing of women on
school boards in Georgia.
The News believes that women can be
distinctly useful as members of public school
boards, and we would cheerfully and consci-
entiously favor a law making them eligible
to hold these positions and giving them the
right to vote for members of those boards.
For many reasons we believe that should
be the limit of their suffrage, and that the
great body of modest and home-loving wo-
men of Georgia would not want or have
more We do not take kindly to the pres
ence of women in the pulpit of women as
governors of states, as judges, as congress
men or legislators, as mayors and city coun-
cilmen and the like These responsibilities
are for men. But the life and the training
of the child in the public school is part and
parcel of the child's life at home, and that
is why women who are wives and mothers
would be valuable in the management OF
the schools.
That is our view of the equal suffrage
question: and is stated as candidly as we
know how.

House by The Side of the Road

There are hermit souls that live withdrawn
In the place of their self content
There are souls like stars, that dwell apart
In a fellowless armament;
There are pioneer souls that blaze their paths
Where the highways never ran
But let me live by the side OF the road
And be a friend to man.
Let me live in a house by the side OF the road
Where the race of men go by
The men who are good and men who are BAD,
AS good and as bad as l.
l would not sit in the scOrner's seat,
Or hurl the cynic's ban
Let me live in a house by the side of the road,
And be a friend to man.
I see from my house by the side of the road,
BY the side of the highway Of life,
The men who press with the ardor of hope,
The men who are faint with the strife;
But l turn not away from their smiles or
their tears
Both parts of an infinite plan
LET me live in a house by the side of the road,
And be friend to man.
Let me live in house by the side of the road,
Where the race of men go by
They are good, they are bad, they are weak,
they are strong;
Wise. fcolish-so am l.
Then why should I sit in the scorner's seat
Or hurl the cynic's ban?

Pursuing the Tax Payer.

great deal is being said about tax re-
form. The best tax reform we can think
of at this time would be to quit spending
so much money and reduce the rates of tax
alton, which have reached the limit in the
state and in almost every county city, town
and hamlet. There is no doubt that taxa
ton is a great and growing burden in Geor-
gia, but instead of trying to find way to
tighten the load by lowering taxes there is
an unrelenting chase of the tax bearer-a
determined effort to find something new to
tax. 1t is time to give some concern to the
man who pays the taxes, and not all to the
causes for which taxes are levied.

Lawlessness in Mexico.

The massacre of fifteen or twenty Ameri-
cans in Mexico indicates that the recognition
of the Carranza faction has not improved
conditions in that country.
In few portions of Mexico has there been
sufficient improvement to Justify Americans
or other foreigners returning to their bust
ness houses, mines or mills Where Villa SOL
diers have been driven out bandits have en-
tered, and the country which Carranza
troops have occupied has been very largely
abandoned again, as the troops were needed
elsewhere.
Following the overthrow of the Diaz gov
eminent and the assumption of power by
the constitutional government Of Francisco
l. Madero the thousands of Mexican and
American refugees in border towns quickly
returned to their homes and interests in the
interior. No such return of refugees has
followed the recognition of Carranza and
the declaration that he has the country un-
der control. In every border city and town
from Brownsville to San Diego, and as far
back from the border as San Antonio, Tue
son and Los Angeles there are many thOus-
ands of the best families of Mexico who fear
to go back to their homes. All along the
border are thousands of Americans, Ger
mans British, Spanish, French and other
foreigners who are refugees from Mexico.
None of them feel that the time has come,
or that it soon is coming, for them to trust
themselves again in Mexico. In Ell Paso
alone it is estimated that there are 10000
refugees, native and foreign.
The general opinion on the border among
Mexicans as we'll as Americans is that the
United States government has made seri-
GUS mistake. On the whole, the outlook
for the return to peace and order in Mexico
is not encouraging. Refugees from nearly
every part of the country tell of unhampered
bandit operations and of disregard for life
and property.
