Here's a splendid thing to always
remember, when you get sore at the
world. don t forget that it will not
hurt the world at all, while it may do
you harm.' You are but q very small
part of this old world like myself
and 1t will wag along just about as
well without you as with you, SO your
complaints are not going to make very
much difference after all. Better keep
sweet and do what you can to make
condition better, like Ike Stein, in
stead of getting grouchy because
things do not go to suit you. The
cheerful man or gets further
than the crouch.
Curiosity is one of the things which
makes the world go around. That is
just why the backs of the heads were
| placed in this feature, instead of the
face.

CASE OF "FLU" REPORTED

DOUGLAS, Nov. 6fi-A case of flu" has been discovered among the natives on the beach in Douglas and has been duly quaranteened.
 While it has been the concensus of opinion amongst medical men that influenza would be prevalent in the country again this winter, there is no occasion to be alarmed. But there is occasion for everyone to be careful of their hygiene and the old axiom "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" never could be ap- piled better than at present. One teaspoonful of gargle may prevent a sore throat and kindred affections that a pound of medicine might not cure.

TWO EMINENT MEN
 BILLED ID SPEAK AT
 METHODIST COLLEGE
First Commencement EXer- cises At United Institution Presents Unusually ln-
 teresting Features.

Dr. J. D. Simpson, former president of the Birmingham Southern college, now pastor of the Woodlawn Method ist church. and one of the most emI- nent divines in Southern Methodism, speaking yesterday of the approaching commencement exercises of that col lege, which will begin on Saturday evening, May S1, and continue through June 3, said:
 -The approaching commencement or Birmingham-Souther college ought 10 mean a great deal not only to the Methodists of Birmingham and ali Ala bama, but also much to the city of Blr- mingham This will be the first com- mencement of the united college. The Southern university and Birmingham college have been united and all Ala bama Methodism is now behind the 1n- stitution.
 "A college commencement is always a time of great interest, not only to the students of the institution, but to all connected with it," Dr. Simpson continued Birmingham has reached a time in it's history when it should make much of this occasion. We have been dealing in big things these last few years and there is nothing bigger than the education of our youth. The college has been exceedingly fortunate fin securing Bishop w. N. Ainsworth to preach, the commencement sermon.

WARNING ISSUED
 BY DIR. BUTLER.
By HOLLAND.

New York, May 22.-(Special) )-Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia university, profound think CT. a very able executive and a most astute politician in the best meaning of that term, has since the European war began delivered various addresses which have been deemed worthy of wide circulation and have set people to thinking. One of his addresses which was delivered at Cincinnati had nation wide circulation. ,Dr. Butler is especial ly qualified to speak upon vital issues of the day because he has been brought into close and constant tough with the leaders of thought and action not only in the United States but in Eu- rope His correspondence with Eu- ropean leaders is voluminous and con- tinuous.
 For this reason something which he said in the latest of his addresses which was delivered a few days ago before the Chamber of Commerce o1 Utica. has been seized upon and has caused qualification, especially in view of the fact that many persons fear that the United States has not taken proper aggressive action in order to prevent | the spread of bolshevism.
 Dr. Butler said at Utica that the movement towards on-building has since the war was ended, received pow l erful impetuous. Poland, CZecho-S1o vakia, Jugo-Slovia and Armenia, arc | taking their places as self-consciou! | and autominous nationalities. Greece will find herself and her people reunited l in one governmental system, including | those who have lived so long under th' I Turkish yoke. The union of Italy will i be completed and secured In these few words, pr. Butler sets forth under I standingly what has already been ac | complshed in the way of nation-build ing since the war ended. But after al
 the most important statement which h.
 made was the prediction that a grea
 federal Russia will shortly rise on thu
 site of the political and economic ruiI
 which autocracy and bolshevism hav' | com bined to produce. This is the frs
 statement from any man of high au
 thority, who also is in receipt of con l fidential communications form Europe which gives promise that out of th'
 chaos and anarchy prevailing in Rus
 sia there will gradually rise grea
 strong and influential federal Russia
