We are sorry to make the state
ment, but the only tramp we have
seen for some time was a tramp
printer. He was one of the old
guard, but husky. He got a cold
deal. This Office was once a mecca
for tourist" printers, who visited us
as regularly in their rounds as the
type or paper statesmen. They were
always sure of a days work-or
more properly speaking, days pay;
but those were the days when there
was some excuse for a man to be 4
tramp. Now it takes genius for q
man to escape well-paid employment;
and we do not care to encourage
that kind of genius.

PASTOR sTAeY'S MESSAGE
- ON -
1.-THE East Wind"

Since | cannot preach to you to-
morrow, am sending this message
through the press, as the next best
thing. And since preacher must
have a text, will find mine In Elk;
odus 1913: "And Jehovah brought
an east wind upon the land"
From the earliest dawn of history
the east wind has been the sign and
often the vehicle Of evil. Frequent
reference is made to II in this con-
nection in the Scripture and other
writings.
Have you noticed that for four
weeks past, with only slight varia'
tions, we have had an east or north
east wind? Then is It any wonder
that pestilence and disease stalk
abroad in the land? II has always
been so, in one form or another.
do not attempt to explain these mys-
teries; | am only stating facts, tn
draw your attention to them, and to
ask this question: II Jehovah sent
that east wind of the text upon
Pharaoh, with its attendant plague
may He not have message for us
in the strange climatic and health
conditions which surround us? May
He not be speaking to us in thu
plague as He has often spoken in
the past through the forces of ma
ture? THINK! With our bumper
crops, with our ship-building pro.
gram, with our bond issues, and with
our army and navy we have been Sc
swift and successful. so efficient and
overpowering, that we have chal
lenged the admiration of the world
Has 1t made us humbly grateful, o,
only more proud and boastful than
before? Have we forgotten that III
is the Lord that giveth thee the pow.
err to get wealth" THINK!
With the gasoline restrictions re.
moved, and no services to attend
what will we do with the Lords day
tomorrow? Take 1t for a time o.
joy-riding, of picnicing. of visiting
other places and people, and thereby
helping to catch and to spread thu
dreaded disease? NOT IF WE
THINK RIGHT! Rather let us make
1t a day of humiliation and prayer
in which we shall humble ourselve;
before Jehovah, penitently confessint
our pride and other sins, and be
seeching Him for His Grace and pow
err to be exerted in our behalf, tha
the spread of the disease may BIZ
stayed, and that the sick ones may
be restored to health.
Surely this Is no time for frivolity
pleasure seeking, Sabbath-breaking
any more than 1t Is a time for graf
and profiteering. Yet all these thing:
are going on all around us. Shall
Gods people be caught in the whirl
or shall they not rather "set theil
faces as flint against all manner
Of evil, and by example as well a.
by word call upon our loved nation
to come back to God? Maybe Coz
in His infinite mercy has given u
these quiet Sabbaths to give us :
chance to learn once more to THINK
May He graciously teach us to THINF
RIGHT.

People who have influenza In
Florida will get well, and that will
be the end of their trouble. But in
the North they will stay sick after
they get well-if you know what we
mean. They will enter the severe
winter weakened and predisposed to
other serious ailments, which will be
aggravated by the rigors Of winter
Here recovery will not be impeded
by any such climatic difficulties. An
other strong reason why Florida
should be the objective point this
winter of thousands who will find
renewed strength and health in this
balmy atmosphere.

THE LAW OF KINDNESS

Our Little Brothers and Sisters"
is the title Of a splendid article on
humane education by Dr. Orison
SWEET Marden, which appeared in
the September Nautilus in which he
says in part;
"The kinship Of all living creatures
is indicated by the universal appre
citation of the law of kindness. All
are susceptible to it, respond to it..
1t is the spirit of kindness which has
developed our present civilization
from savages." = How often do
we see drivers numerically beating
and abusing poor, tired horses But
we utter no protest. We know 1t is
wrong to allow the poor animals to
be abused, but we are too cowardly
to take the chances of exposing our
selves to ridicule, or possible abuse
from the driver, and pass on, leaving
the poor dumb creatures in their
misery.
The lack of courage, the fear Of
being thought peculiar, keeps many
people from doing kind things which
their hearts prompt. Only the few
have the manhood or the womanhood
to- brave ridicule Of the coarse and
unthinking for the sake Of love
1t is comparatively easy to create
sentiment Of sympathy and love for
these dumb animals in growing chill
dren, and the creation of such a sen
timent in youth will have wonder
full influence upon their after life.
Teach your boy and your girl that a
real man, real woman always
champions the cause of the innocent
and helpless birds and animals and
that really noble soul never Injuries
or causes pain to creatures who have
no way of appealing to him, who car
not plead their own cause, whose
very helplessness should enlist his
sympathy and protection"
Loves way is gradually teaching
man that all races belong to one
great family; that all life is one, and
that what we call the lower animals
are in reality our little sisters and
brothers."
GRACE A. TOWNSEND.
