CIRCUIT RIDINC--OLD AND NEW

for a number of small towns within
sixty miles of Topeka every Sun
day.
The Right Rev. Frank Hale
Touret, Bishop of Western Colo
rado, also asks for automobiles
while the Right Rev. Paul Mat
thews of the Diocese of New Jersey
wants. in addition to motor cars, a
motor truck large enough to trans
port priest with all the accessories
needed for holding any kind of
religious service-communion, fun
eral, morning prayer or wedding
so that out of the way communities
in southern New Jersey may en-
joy the religious advantages of
more populous communities.
AS result Of the Nationwide
Campaign, which is to raise both
money and workers for the expan-
sion of all Episcopal activities, the
dealers in automobiles, motorcycles
and gasoline will find rev custo-
mer for their wares and one whose
trade is entirely likely to keep on
expanding as the vestries learn how
much modern means of transporta-
ton add to the amount of work
which their rectors can accomplish.
Gilpin observer., 1919-12-04

The twentieth century circuit
rider who has congregations scat
tered over from ten to fifty square
miles of territory does not travel
from place to place on horseback.
Instead he makes use of two of
the latest methods of transporta-
ton, immeasurably faster than the
slow-paced Dobbin. He either
mounts a motorcycle and pfut-pfuts
his way from one village to an
other or climbs into a moderate
priced automobile and whirs about.
Probably the only reason why he
does not use an airpla.e is because
his congregations refuse to have
him risk his life by becoming a
"sliy pilot" literally as we'll as
hgurativcly.
The number of strictly up-to-date
circuit riders will be greatly in
creased as result of the Nation
Wide Campaign of the Episcopal
Church. In the surveys of the
needs of the various parishes and
diocescs returned to the general
headquarters of the Nationwide
Campaign at 1874 East % Street,
New York City, many requests
have been included asking for aid
Gilpin observer., 1919-12-04

in buying motorcycles and auto
mobiles that the effectiveness of
the rector in the sparsely populated
sections of the country may be in
creased many times.
The Right Rev. Hugh L. Burle-
son of Sioux Falls, S. D., Episcopal
Bishop of South Dakota, in includ-
ing the item of automobiles in the
survey for that diocese says: "a
priest with a machine can do just
four times the work out here as a
priest without one"
The Right Rev. Clinton L. Ouin.
Bishop Coadjutor of Texas, with
headquarters in Houston, asks for
automobiles for the clergymen in
his diocese as does Archdcacon
Garner of Amarillo for the Diocese
of North Texas. There the territory
in charge of each clergyman is
large and the distances he has to
cover so great that it is deemed in
dispensable that he be supplied with
motor transport.

A man may be lazy but he is glad
he worked when he receives pay for
his services.
The way lady suffers while wear
ing the peg heel shoe attracts more
attention on the street than does the
beauty of the shoe.
Morally there is no difference In
eating and drinking too much, and the
only difference physically, Is where
the pain caused by the overindulgence
is located.
Although fellow may appear to be
willing when he hands out a dollar in

might have been avoided had he gone
the other way.

Life is a dream to be interrupted
only by death. The dream of J.. c..
Chastine is DER, and, sorrowing, we
gather around his ~lifeless form to pay
our last tribute of respect to the de-
parted soul. In life, we see with
clouded vision, the wonderful beau
ties of creation and of God, but, in
death, the horizon clears, and we
view, for the first time, those nobler
qualities Of mind and heart that has
made human life worth the living.
Chastine lived through the first half
century of Negro freedom, the dark
est period in the history of civiliza-
ton; a period of encouragement, of
bitter disappointments, and of blast
ed hopes, yet he lived and fought as
best he knew, for a place in the sun
light of liberty and in the realm of
opportunity. When he could battle
no longer for the race that he so
dearly loved, God called him away.
He was a man of extraordinary ma
tive force and of fine character, quail
tiles that would have won for him
high honors had he been a member
of any other race. He was a man
Of high ideals and of wonderful de-
termination, following what he con-
ceived to be right, regardless of any
opposition that his course might pro-
woke; yet,
The boast of h~eraldry, the pomp of
power,
And all that beauty, all that
wealth e'er gave,
Awaits alike the inevitable hour,
The paths of glory lead but to the
grave"
He lived a busy life, full of hope,
ever struggling for the unattainable;
catching, now and then, glimpses of
those higher political regions for
which his soul longed and to which
his labors entitled him.
Col. Chastine gloried in the ac-
quaintance with and loved the asso-
citation of great men. He knew well,
most of the prominent leaders Of his
race, and was on friendly speaking
terms with many of the great states
men of the present day. His name
will not be enrolled in the Temple
of Fame but it will linger in the
memories of men for years to come.
Missouri gave to the world, in the
early morning of freedom, some of
the greatest characters that the Ne
gro race has produced; men of UNI
questioned ability, of courage, of
sterling character, of purest patriot
ism, pioneers of the development and
progress of the race. Turner, Wheel
er and Tandy are gone but they will
never be forgotten by the men and
women of u race. 1t was these
men who taught Chastine and thou
sands of young men, their first les
sons in politics and patriotism. Chas-
tine did not live in vain, he played

s. due 100000 damages because Of
the abrupt termination of his con-
tract
Agreements between motor car
dealers and the factories which they
represent are about the same the
country over. TO has long been a
mooted question whether OF not the
dealer is an agent Of the manufac-
tlrer or an Independent salesman.
In most dealers contracts there is
q cancellation clause by which
either party reserves the right 20
terminate the agency agreement up
or tho giving 90 = certain number
o. days notice, Usually 30. Another
clause in many contracts provides
that the dealer shall not be en-
titled 10 commissions on outstand-
ing business, II cancellation Of the
contract is effected before the eX-
rir3tiOn Of the contract.
Claims His Commission.
Gever's claim is that he is en-
titled 20 his commission as an agent
II The manufacturer. rather than as
mere retailer who buys COM
uodiues and parcels them out 10
his customers Individually. In the
suit the fact is set forth that 1900
cars have been sold for delivery up
10 Nov. so. when the contract ex-
rires. and that on these the petit
toner iS entitled 10 his commissions.
4 form OF contract is in use by
great many manufacturers which
The dealers claim does not always
give them adequate protection. In
the opinion of the latter it is not
entirely equfta BILE. They claim that
iu the business their money is in
vested and that though the manu-
facturer does a great deal in the
way of advertising his product ma
tionaIly, and thereby creating a GER
tain demand for It. after all they
the dealers-are the ones who are
i'm a great measure responsible for
the local success in different terri
tories. This claim is most strongly
set forth by some of the older deal
ers. who contend with much truth
that the reputation 'hey have built
in the community for fair dealing
and care of customers wants in the
way Of service is largely resDon-
sible for the success of the car in
question in that locality.
Contracts For n Year.
AS dealers contracts today are
written they are for but 12-month
period. and each year there are al
ways more or less rumblings in the
trade that certain agencies are
about TO change hands. This has
tendency TO create a somewhat IN
settled condition for a short time at
least. No matter how quiet con-
tempiated changes are kept there is
always a leak somewhere. and the
news IS bound to get out. If un-
true. II hurts the dealer about
whom the report Is spread and If
true has a tendency 70 check the
sale or the car in question for q
time, at least until the new dealer
can get set and get his bearings
There are bound 10 be the usual
questions and mlsgivings when an
