Considerable has been said lately
about idle negroes loafing around
town and decreasing the stock of ra-
tions. However, Henry Gordon, who
knows as much about labor conditions
as any man, set out some days ago to
find workmen for a certain enterprise.
He raked the town with fine-tooth
comb and reported that nearly all the
negroes were at work. And we are
afraid he couldn't say the same of the
white men.

circles of top society.

who has plenty of wealth and plenty
Of literary ability as well, presently
espied two delegates from society's
arctic regions sitting In window seat,
very much alone, and apparently not
enjoying themselves to any large de-
gree. Plainly, they were mother and
daughter, very commanding-looking
mother and rather docile, timid
daughter. Being minded to make the
affair a complete success, the patron
lady approached the alOof pair.

AS TO DIGNITY OF HISTORY
Times Have Changed Since Macaulay
Criticized Phrase Which Was
Then Much in Vogue.

Macaulay wrote: "There is a vile
phrase of which bad historians are ex-
ceedingly fond, the dignity of his
tory; and he proceeded, with his
usual point and force, to show that,
though historians should not record
trifles, it is not always easy to distin-
guish trifies from events of great i'm
portance.
There are trifes which are by no
means. trifiing.
Macaulay was comparing Sir w.
Temples dispatches with the love let
ters which, during a seven-years'
courtship, passed between him and
the lady who became his wife, and
he was pleading on their behalf for
attention and respect.
They were, it is true, love letters,
and not state papers; but love letters
which betrayed the social feeling Of a
period.
There is no need for any such plea
today.
The tendency now is to overlook
what is official and grave and to hunt
out the love letters, foibles, toys and
trimmings Of history.

His Motive.

Fresh from his vacation, the minis
ter faced large congregation, who
were very kind in their praise Of his
sermon. The next Sunday a larger
congregation came and listened with
growing concern to the same address
as before. The next Sunday he
preached the sermon again. The
officers of the church, after much con-
sulting together, asked him why. The
minister replied, "Why, yes, 1t was
the same sermon. The first Sunday
you told me how fine 1t was, and how
1t was just what you needed. / watched
you oil week, and you lived just as be-
fore, so l preached 1t again. All the
following week / watched, and you
lived just the same; SO, remembering
that you all had said 1t was just what
you needed, preached 1t once more.
Unless there is some sign of improve
ment, don't you think I'd better plan
to repeat 1t again?"
