IS IF WORTH WHILE?

Southern papers claim that there are no sun strokes in the south, no matter how hot the weather gets. Well Eskimos don't catch cold, either but look where they have to live to purchase such immunity. tde Cleveland Plain Dealer.
 The Cleveland Plain Dealer, in an attempt to be funny at the expense of the south, asks the question, "ls 1t worth while?"
 Here's the answer:
 Some years ago southern minis ter accepted a call to a Cleveland church, or one in that neighborhood. His little daughter, who had never known anything of blizzards or snow storms, but who through the whole winter in her southern home had listened to the singing of the mock ing birds and inhaled the perfume or the ever blooming flowers, week after week and month after month in her western home endured the tortures of the blizzard.
 She saw those around her suffer ing from the bitter cold and snows of western region and one day when the storm was particularly severe, she turned to her father and said:
 Papa is heaven divided like the United States into the north and the south and east and west?"
 What do you mean, my child?" was the reply.
 And the little girl, shivering with cold, said:
 'I thought if heaven was divided like this country, into the north and south and east and west, when l got to heaven I would ask the dear Lord to let me live in south heaven"
 Another story also illustrates why the Cleveland Plain Dealer knows nothing of which it talks.
 Some years ago we'll known busi- ness man of Lexington, Ky, largely interested in the development of coal properties in the south. gather ed group of the leading business men in the west and started south in OIQ6T IO SUOW tucH oOuhC Ol thC AiAh eral resources of that section.
 When they left the west the weather was biting cold and the snow was deep. There was no sign that spring would be there for many months. but next morning as the pas sengers looked out they found they had passed beyond the snow limit, and late that afternoon they reached a section where the trees were bud ding. the spring flowers were putting forth and the birds were vocal with praise for the privilege of living in such a heaven favored land.
 These western men, turning to their Kentucky friend, said:
 "We do not believe it possible that the section to which you are carrying us has such natural resources as you claim for it, for. if to this glorious climate you could add such advanta-

ges as you say the south has in coal and iron and other minerals, how can you explain the fact that 1t has never been more largely developed 2"
 "The answer" said B. R. Hutch craft, who at that time was leading business man of Lexington, 'is simple enough. It is part of divine wis dom. The Almighty knew that if the world at large learned first of the advantagesand resources of the south all population would center here and it would never be possible even for divine power to induce peo- pie to locate in the vest

 Yea, teaming millions more, To swell our mighty armies
 Encamped on foreign shore. They go in youthful manhood
 Impatient for the fray, To deal the foe his fatal blow
 And sheathe the sword for aye. Go, valiant hordes and legions,
 Crusaders one and all, And fight for human freedom
 Till fiends enthroned shall fall, Strike hard and give no quarter
 Till mad ambitions lust Vile vulture prey-shall fall away To nothingness and dust.
