The poet Goethe declared that "the
prime quality of the real critic is SYM
patty. There is no other approach to
a mnn or a race. Men rarely under.
stand that which they hate, but they
rarely fail to understand that which
they love" This Is all true gospel, as
true as the Beatitudes or the Golden
Rule. If you are trying TO advance a
good cause and fight with lnte the
man who opposes you, you will never
win. II is friendship and kindness that
gain all the triumphs Of social and re-
llgious life. Our nation is in state
of torment today because the people
have no sympathy for one another.
They simply dispute and wrangle.
They strive to exalt their own stand
points, not caring Whit what the
others standpoint is. One trouble In
the situation is that the sympathy one
man owes to another is generally sup
planted by self-lnterest, which is the
purycyor Of hate and i'll will, and
which consequently never reaches u
just conclusion.

VALUE OF LOYALTY.

Loyalty puts a mans heart into his
work and breeds success. II makes
of him good husband and father, and
a conservative citizen. He becomes
lover and defender Of law and order,
because upon their stability depends
the happiness and security OF his wife
and children, and the permanence of
the job that supports them. Many of
the problems of the day, perhaps a ma
jorlty Of them, simmer down to mat
ter Of loyalty. The forces of disorder
are always diSloynl--to their families,
their employers and their communities.
They repudlate the only principles son
which civilization can thrive. The
hideous political ideas that Turk In boil
shevistic aud soviet government leave
little room for loyalty to God, country
or family, says Omaha Bee. They are
wholly devoted to greed and irrespon.
slble power. The misdemeanors of UNI
principled capitalists the world over
pale into utter inslgnifcance when
compared with the poisonous and cor
roding influence Of the ungodly radi-
calIsm thrown temporarily into power
in Russia by the ferrnent of war.

FORTUNE TELLER
 RUSTLES ROLL
Captain Bulger Recovers $63 of Sam Renick's Money From
 Gypsy
Woman of Band Gets Away With Old
 Game But Is Caught Later

\ seventh daughter of seventh daughter-or whatever it takes to make fortune teller-was lacking in a couple of gypsies from band that came to Putnam Monday in three automobiles. Had the two bandanad queens been the real thing. they would have known that the moon and stars aud earth and sea were not in the proper position for a successful opera tion in Putnam However. they did not know it, but almost got away with the old 'rustling' game in spite of it. But they didn't quite, as the victim complained to the police and the gyp- sies were overtaken in Pomfret and the money returned.
 According to the police the two wo- men entered the store of Sam Renick and after some pleasantries asked to tell his fortune Renick wanted to know who two enemies of his were, and before he got through with the fortune telling he found out.
 The police say that Renick says that the two soothsayers gathered about Renick and in the course of perform ing their second sight stunt asked him if he had any money. Renick dug down into his jeans and brought up a roll which he was told to hold in his hand. Then one of the tellers wanted to hold the roll in her hand. There was a holding and a reholding, and when the two women left Renick found that they were the last ones to hold the roll and that they forgot to put it back in his hand
 After an unsuccessful chase to the north the trail was taken up westward and the band was overtaken in Pom fret. of course the Captain and Ken ick. who went along to identify the fortune teller. at first met with denials of any knowledge of the money, Be fore the meeting was over one of the men of the band, rather than have any trouble over such a small affair, turned over S63 As there were eight or ten children in the party who would all have to be brought to the police station if an arrest was made. the for tune tellers and the rest of the cara van were allowed to proceed.
 One of the men of the band told the captain that fortune telling was done in this way nowadays and that every once in so often "sueeer was caught" and that sometimes they soueal and sometimes keep silent. Il is the silent ones that help to fund the general treasury and buy bread foI ' the children.
