A Real Children's Day.

A real and genuine Childrens's Day
Festival was held at the Congregation
al church last Sunday morning, when
more than one hundred boys and girls
of the Sunday School presented in a
most telling way, Children of the
Fathers Kingdom" connected pro-
gram which taught in forceful way
the great, but often forgotten truth,
that the light of Gods love is for all
races and generations of men. The
singing by the junior choir of nearly
forty voices, with organ and orchestra
accompaniment, was one of the pleas
ing features of the service. There are
eighty-three babies on the Cradle Roll
of the Sunday school and at this ser
vice. sixteen of this number were
promted to the Primary Department
and nine others dedicated in the rites
of Christian baptism.
The large congregation expressed itf
approval and appreciation of the ex'
ercises by establishing for the church
new record in Children's Day offer
ings, giving over forty-five dollars fo'
Congregational Sunday school extension
work.
All the participants and especially

COMMENCEMENT.

The schools Of higher" education,
meaning colleges and universities. are
putting their finished product forth in
this lovely month of June. What will
the harvest be?
1t all depends depends on the quail
ties of mind and heart possessed by
these young people. and on the ideals
that have been implanted within them
to serve as inspiration, They have
been in the public schools for ten OF
twelve years. largely at public expense,
DO they emerge from those schools
with sense of gratitude. of obligation,
to the pubic-spirited citizens at whose
expense they have been educated ?"
Time will tell.
If they are sent forth by the school
with the idea that their superiority of
knowledge is to make it easier for
them to earn big money. to shirk
manual labor, and to regard with super
cilious eye the worlds manual workers,
their education will prove public
liability, instead Of an asset. The
public does not maintain school TO turn
out birds of prey. but TO manufacture
public servants. The idea that ami
mates the citizen Taxpayer when he
digs into his jeans for school money. is
that the schools he is paying to run
are made and maintained to train young
folks to become more useful to the
public than they otherwise could be.
If the school does not meet this require
ment. it cannot justify it's existance.

established to contribute to the per-
lection of those who would Idle through
life or prey upon their supposedly less
fortunate fellows They are created

A STORY OF THE FLOOD.

The following letter was received by
Miss Gertrude Weidenfeller from her
brother George of Pueblo, Colo, and
describes the awful conditions there at
the time of the flood
Pueblo, Colo, June 6, 1921.
Dear Sister Gertrude:
Just few lines to tell you that we
are all right and no harm has come TO
us on account of the awful flood that
started June Bird, returned the night OF
the 4th, and again on the aft, rnoon OF
the 5th. The water rose so high that
it covered almost the entire business
district and residences in the lower part
of town, coming within five blocks of
US. Fire also broke out on the night OF
the 3rd, destroying large lumber yards
and several large buildings in different
parts of town. Strings of freight cars
floated down Main Street and rammed
into a three story building, tearing
out the entire front of the whole three
stories. In several cases quarter of
block of buildings were entirely
swept away. In one case three
story brick building was swept away.
The business for almost two miles of
streets is entirely destroyed The two
miles of business | mention only means
the retail district. Besides this there
are the wholesale and manufacturing
also resident districts that were swept
away
A Missouri Pacific X. r. passenger
train of seven cars and Denver 4
Rio Grande r. r. passenger train OF
eight ears were swept off their tracks
in eleven feet of water just about one
half mile after leaving the Unior
Depot and turned over in the flood
One train fell against large packing
house where sixty passengers founc
refuge. So far we do not know tn,
fate of the rest of the passengers o
these trains; so we have no idea hov
many lives were lost as the waite
rushed with such fury that many wer
carried miles away.
The mud is from two to five fee
deep in front of our office and every
thing on the first floor 10 destroyed

CONVICT LABOR

Senator Dial. Of Soutn"C Carolina,
is advocating q bill to require con-
victs in federal pri1ons to earn their
keep. He would have them put to
work, IN some gainful occupation.
and the products OF their labor sold
and the proceeds used to pay TOR
their maintenance.
The theory Is good, even ON econo-
mical grounds. The strongest argu-
ment, however, would seem to be
that Of morality and good health.
Convicts, and other persons a. we'll.
are better off in every way when they
are working.
But Senator Dial had better be
careful; or, rather, care must be used
In selecting the kind of work for the
convicts. We don't want cOnvicts
coming into competition with free
labor. This has been n bone of con-
tention with organized labor in this
country for years. and rightly so.

other day, when, at the age OF 81,
he saw his first circus and rode on
his first train.
Most OF us have been living in
wonderland for so long that we get
no thrills out of it. We lit to our
lips a small instrument and talk to
friends miles away. We press a
button and flood our homes with
light. We see people riding through
the air and think nothing of II. In
moved. we take all this magic for
granted. We are like a child with
too many toys.
Happy Wesley Syco! He is a man
to be envied. He has so much 10
see and SO much to learn.
