A DAILY LINE O. CHEER
BY John Kendrick Bangs :.
TWOGUYS.

Young Hezekiah Heeza Knutt has
working brains in plenty. but
ne never uses them a bit and
thus derives no benefit.
He daily goes to work, it's true O
but when his working day is
through, gives not a thought to
anything like reading up or
studying.
But jeremiah Jethrum Pep is
making progress step by step, and
though his brilliancy is less, plugs
ever on in earnestness.
At even when his work is done he
does not think alone of fun, but
reads and studies some, to learn
and bost the wage that he can earn.
These two were even at the start.
but now they're running far apart
for Pep has forged his way
ahead. while Knutt has STAYED
behind instead.

CHAPTER =.
Moses dissuadeth them from the opinion Of
their own righteousness. by rehearsing
their several rebellions.
Hear, o Israel: Thou art to pass
over Jordan this day, to go in to
possess nations greater and might
isr than thyself cities great and
fenced up to heaven.
2 A people great and tall. the
children of the Anakim. whom thou
knowest, and OF whom thou hast
heard say, Who can stand before
the children of Anak.'
Understand therefore this day,
that the Lord thy God is he which
goeth over before thee; as a con-
suming Are he shall destroy them,
and he shall bring them down be-
fore thy face: so shalt thou drive
them out, and destroy them quickly,
as the Lord hath said untosthee.
Speak not thou in thine heart.
after that the Lord thy God hath
cast them out from. before thee.
saying, For my righteousness the
Lord hath brought me in to possess
this land: but for the wickedness
of these nations the Lord doth drive
them out from before thee.
Not for thy righteousness. or
for the uprightness of thine heart,
dost thou go to possess their land:
but for the wickedness OF these ma
tions the Lord thy God doth drive
them out before thee, and that he
may perform the word which the
Lord sware unto thy fathers, Abra-
ham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Understand therefore, that the
Lord thy God giveth thee not this
good land to possess IL for thy
righteousness: for thou art stiff-
necked people.
7 Remember. and forget not.
how thou provokedst the Lord thy
God to wrath in the wilderness:
from the day that thou didst de-
part out of the land of Egypt, until
ye came unto this place. ye shave
been rebellious against the Lord.
s Also in Horeb ye provoked the
Lord to wrath, so that the Lord
was angry with you to have de-
stroyed you.
When 1 was gone up into the
mount to receive the tables Of
stone, even the tables of the cove
nant which the Lord made with
you, then I abode in the mount
forty days and forty nights; I
neither did eat bread nor drink
water:
10 And the Lord delivered unto
me two tables Of stone written with
the finger OF God; and on them was
written according to all the words
which the Lord spake with you in.
the mount. out OF the midst OF the
fire, In the day OF the assembly.
IL And II came TO pass at the
end Of forty days and forty nights,
that the Lord gave me the two
tables OF stone. even the tables Of
the covenant.
12 And the Lord said unto me.
Arise. get thee down quickly from
hence; for thy people which thou
hast brought forth out OF Egypt
have corrupted themselves; they
are quickly turned aside out OF the
way which ] commanded thcm; they
have made them . molten image.

SETTLEMENT REACHED IN
 OCEAN BEACH LITIGATION

The differences between the estate of Peter Dorsey and Edward s. Neilan and Joseph F. Nofal and A. H. Wilkinson over property rights at Ocean Beach were adjusted this week by the pay ment, by Mir. Wilkinson of an amount said to be $1,20o to MT. Nofal. A year ago last May the estate of Peter Dor sey and Edward S. Neilan, joint owners of a property on the boarl walk at Ocean Beach leased to Joseph F. Nofal this land for the purpose of placing thereon a confectionery store.
 This land is located between the Fitz- gerald property and the Wilkinson pro- perty. Mir. Wilkinson entered com plaint and through his attorney, Arthur T. Keefe, sought an injunction to pre- vent the establishment of a store on the premises claiming that no commercial business could be carried on for a period of 20 years under the restrictive clauses in the deed to the property conveyed at that time.
 Not long ago, and while the matter was pending in the courts, the Dorsey estate and Mir. Neilan sold the land to Anthony Leverone who has since estab- lished a store on the premises. MT No fal then brought suit against MT. Will kinson for damages, because he was un- able to establish a store on the property The Dorsey estate and Mir. Neilan ob- tained Sa,6oo for the land which is 24 feet frontage on the board walk. Suits entitled Joseph Nofal vs. Arthur H. Wilkinson, Arthur H. Wilkinson and others vs. Thomas F. orsey. Jr., execu- tor, and others, and Arthur H. Wilkin- son and others vs. Edward S. Neilan, all relating to this litigation, have beer withdrawn without costs from the su- perior court
