SOME POOR BLIND FOLK HAVE
NEVER SEEN A MIRACLE.
(By Bruce BartOn.)

by Bruce BartOn.)
Here Is an important distinction
that many people overlook. God made
the world; but He does not make your
world.
He provides the raw materials, and
out Of them every man selects what he
wants and builds an individual world
for himself.
The fool looks over the wealth of
material provided, and selects few
plates OF ham and eggs, few pairs of
trousers, a few dollar bills-and is sat
isfed.
The wise man builds his world out
Of wonderful sunsets, and thrilling
experiences, and the song of the stars,
and romance and miracles.
Nothing wonderful ever happens in
the life of fool.
A primrose by a rivers brim
A yellow primrose is to him,
And 1t Is nothing more,
An electric light is simply an cleo
trio light; telephone is only a tele-
phone nothing unusual at ALL
But the wise man never ceases to
wonder how tiny speck OF seed, ap-
parently dead and buried, can pro
duce a beautiful yellow flower He
never lifts telephone receiver or
switches on an electric light without
q certain feeling Of awe
And to think what Il miracle it is,

grown blunt through constant familiar.

goes down behind the western horizon

anew with light.

the voice Of God, rolls out its mighty
waves Of sound, and the sound carries

speck upon the face Of the earth--I
lift little instrument; and behold.
my whisper is heard a thousand
miles away.
PrOmethells stole fire from the gods
and brought 1t down to earth. For
that crime the gods chained him to a
lonely rock and sent a huge blrd to
feed upon his yitals Each night the
wound healed and ecah day it was
torn open again.
That was the punishment of the
man who dared to wrest away the
richest treasure Of the gods.
But fre-the treasure Of the gods
has almost disappeared out of our |
daily life; We scorn it.

A Valuable Publication.

We have received a copy of the P.
& N. Special, a publication "devoted
to the interests Of the employees, pa
irons and owners of the Piedmont and
Northern railway and to the develop
ment Of the territory it trayerses.'
Judging by copy of the issue before
US the Special lives up to the state
ment quoted. 1t is neat little pub
lication, clear and clean of print, con-
tanning valuable information to those
for whom il is published, as well as
interesting matter for the general
public. A perusal Of the contents Of
the number on hand shows the trend
Of thought governing the able man
agement, John Paul Lucas being edi-
tor. 1t quotes Chairman Clark of the
Interstate Commerce commission as
declaring that reduction Of operating
costs, careful management and reyiv-
al Of commerce are needed to save the
transportation system Of the coun-
try, speaking on the railway situa-
tion st gives an account Of a meet
ing of the P. & N. Efficiency associa-
ton and also Of the formation Of the
Piedmont and Northern Progressive
association. A very important sub
ject handled is under. the heading

of which the P. & N. railway donates

house; which fact shows the fine spir-
it and soul Of this corporation-the
great Piedmont and Northern railway
system that is doing SO much for the
growth and Development of the "ter-
ritory it traverses." It recognizes
and gives credit, also, to the fact that
success depends upon the public" !"
1t sounds note of optimism, quoting
from a prominent and reliable au-
thority that resumption Of trade ac-
tivities is coming much faster than
most people realize" 1t has a sound
and sane article ON the labor situa-
ton, in which it states truly that "the
farmers of the country without ex-
ception have suffered heavy reverses,
and. are selling their products. which
means their labefy 1T: from GO #e2as
low as Is per cen Of prices they. re-
ceived SIX to eight months ago. and
rings the declaration that "there is
