BEEcHER A TRUE ORATOR
(Rev. Charles Edward Jefferson in
Youths Companion)

(Rev. Charles Edward Jefferson in
Youths Companion)
At last the great Henry Ward
Beecher paid us a visit I obtained a
seat directly in front of him. I know
my eyes were open. I am not sure
about my month From boyhood l
had heard about the famous Brooklyn
preacher, and now at last was to be
permitted to hear him! l had always
idolized him as the greatest of orators
and now was to hear what real ora
tory is.
He began his lecture in a quiet, con-
versational tone That surprised me
not little, for, if man was an ora
tor, it seemed to me he ought not to
waste time in being something else.
But the speaker was merely a quiet
voiced gentleman saying things in
calm and sensible way. l forgave him.
however, for l knew that after he once
got down to business he would show
us what he could do.
But he simply went on and on and
on. After a while 1 forgot to pay at
tention to just SOW he was going on.
simply drank in the words as they
flowed from his lips, and then all at
once he stopped-just why l did not
understand, for surely he had not
spoken ten or twelve minutes-and /
felt confident that he would, after get
ting his breath, begin again. But to
my dismay he walked off the stage
and the lecture was actually ended.
looked at my watch. 1t said he had
spoken more than an hour l could
not understand it. 1 compared my
watch with the watch of a friend.
They both said the same thing.
new idea of eloquence began to
dawn on me. had always supposed
it was the art of saying things in
such a dramatic way that everyone
would sit enraptured, exclaiming, "Ah,
this is eloquence!" l now began to
surmise that the hearer forgets the
clock and merges his soul into the
soul of the speaker. That is what
happened to me.
On going home l realized that had
not recognized the greatness of the
speaker until the moment in which he
ceased. l did not know how high
was until he left me, and was obliged
to Chamber down to the level of my
ordinary existence. l learned that
night that eloquence is neither
defamation nor any sort of verbal
pyrotechnics, but the art of using
words in such a way that the clock
stops and the forces of the spirit are
set free.

tism in the Baptist church and will
be imersed the first Sunday in Feb

the entire race should feel proud, be-
cause he heard and answered the call
of the nation so nobly; leaving loved
ones behind and going to face death,
in order that we might be free. Well
might we say of him: Greater love
has no man than this, that man
lay down his life for his friend"

Poultry raisers throughout the coun-
try should not lose sight of the fact
that it pays better to raise standard
bred poultry than the common barn
yard or mongrel fowl. The standard
bred fowls cost no more to raise house
or market than the mongrel; they eat
no more and lay better They are more
uniform in size and color, and when
dressed for market bring more per pound.
Standard bred poultry can rough it as
we'll or better than the common barn
yard fowl. We, therefore, advise all
who possibly can to raise good, strong,
vigorous standard bred birds. In order
that this may be successful, there is no
question about the early hatch" cam
paign that was so vigorously pushed last
season and which is also being pushed
again this season. Early hatch" means
@early lay" and summed up means more
money to the producer. The state col
lege, Of agriculture and the United States
department of agriculture cooperating
through county and home demonstration
agents. and assisted by local leaders
and committeeman, wish all to keep up
the good work in carly Matching,
