So many gods, so many creeds,
So many paths that wind and wind,
While just the art of being kind,
Is all the sad world needs.

Literary Meeting of the Methodist
Missionary Society
The literary meeting Of the Metho-
dist Missionary Society, held yester-
day afternoon at the church, was one
of the best which has been held for
some time. The meeting was opened
by an instrumental solo by Miss Ruth
Rentz, which was greatly enjoyed.
Misses Catherine Strunk and Louise
Bowler gave each beautiful read
ing, and these young ladies showed
decided talent along that line.
Mrs. R. L. Bridges, who led the de-
votional exercises, appealed to the
heart of every listener, for she did
this with much spirituality. Mrs
Ira Barnett, who has a beautifully
sweet voice, sang with tender pathos
solo taken from Whitcomb Riley's
poems. Mrs. George Taylor, Mrs. G.
G. Barnett and Mrs. H. w. Clark
read and gave splendid criticisms OF
the book the society is now reading.
