SAVIOURS
By ANGELA MORGAN

Yours is the daring skin to tread The waters of world at war; Yours is the miracle to shed Where rocking seas of hatred are, Courage and comfort, like a star. You cry unto an earth dismayed, And God is thrilling in your tone: Brothers the ship is not alone; Be not afraidw
 Ye are the Christs of this black hour, The Great Physician come again, Within your sacred hands the power To heal the race of men. Ye hold the hurt world to your breast: Ye bind her bruised and broken soul: The sick, the maimed and the oppressed Yours is the gift to make them whole. And where the stricken miles unrol Ye sound the resurrection morn Above The bier where Justice lies. With visions of an age new born, He bid the dead arise!
 O World. that walkest now in tears Where Truth again is orucifed After the thousand, thousand years See yet that Christ is not denied

Man Scales Woolworth Tower

OF the Woolworth Building.
No man was climbing the building,
nor had been, yet from o'clock or so
until Ut became too dark to watch at
about O'Clock. passers-by paused, fol-
lowed the gaze of the staring thou
sands and fell under the spell. Occn-
sionally groups disintegrated and their
individual constituents went about
their Observation-Disclosures to relate at
the dinner table later the marvellous
sight, they had seen and to wish they
could have stopped to see whether the
Climber ended at the top or at the bot
tom. But the crow was constant

hours.
In hundred different places at the

went out and informed the crowd.

Cruddan. "Some guy started it an it

Mexico Hospital. She was instrument
tai, with others, in securing a perma-
nent Rest Room in the Court House
for the accommodation of the women
Of the county, chiefly wives Of farm
ers.
The writer recalls very well .he
help rendered by Mrs. Guthrie and
her co-workers in the local option
campaign in 1918, which put the sa-
looms out of Mexico. She was several
times president Of the alumnae Of
Hardin College, and had the honor Of
being a member of the first gradual
ing class Of the institution. She
could find time for aiding the needy
and nursing the sick.
Again. II not finally, because il
would be hard to make a complete
catalogue, Mrs. Guthrie was a suffra-
gist. Her attitude toward suffrage
was the same as is the attitude of
other capable women, expressed in the
question that cannot be answered in
the negative. namely, If we are will
ing to give so much time and eff
eient labor direct and indirect to the
aid Of the community, why should we
be denied the right to affect aocial
conditions by the direct instrument Of
the ballot?
The chief charm of any individual IS
to be found in what is called person
ality. Mrs. Guthrie carried many a
proposition through to success be-
cause Of her winning personality.
Perhaps most people can be brought
to unite on a given proposition By the
pleasing manner of the leader, and
that pleasing manner is exhibited per-
haps more in a smile than in any other
grace. Mrs. Guthrie's smile is a her.
