JOY OF LIVING.

A feverish pursuit Of pleasure is
often held to be characteristic of our
age. The pulpit bewails the hcadlong
rush of frivolous society after the
foolish and vapid playthings of an
hour, instead of a sober pursuit Of the
eternal varieties that feed the soul
The old people shake their heads and
tell their juniors how much better all
was ordered in the days of long ago,
and the young folk scoff and are flip
pant and say they must lead their
own lives and will brook no interfer-
ence. But if we could transplant our
own time on earth to the earliest his
tory of the race, we should find that
there always have been moralists and
sages who were mournful over the
decadence of manners; there always
have been some who took the business
Of living with painful and profound
solemnity, while others with an incu-
rable levity ate, drank and were mer-
ry and cared for nothing but to have
good time and to do their owi
sweet will.
We have always with US the poor
in resources; there is forever a multi
tude restless and ready to pay any
price for amusement. To host of
persons life is dull without some form
of professional entertainment. To be
ever on the move is to them a neces-
sary stimulus; they do not know how
to be happy in a quiet place among
the folk who are temperate and bal
anced and sober-minded. They must

without the qualities or interests
which make their own personalities
attractive to themselves. They mere

PITTMAN-CIRLOT.

The atmosphere of the beautiful
Methodist Church breathed of spring
time Tuesday morning in it's lovely
decorations of bridal colors, devel-
oped with dainty white snowdrops,
graceful ferns and palms, to pay
tribute to the youth and sweetness
of the bride, Miss Sallie Inez Cirlot,
who, at ten o'clock, plighted her troth
to Mr.. Frank Boykin Pittman. The
Rev. w. M. Sullivan Of Gulfport read
the sweetly. solemn words that made
them one, the double ring ceremony
being used.
Mrs. Herbert U. Canty of Pasca-
goula sang sweetly, "All For You"
after the guests had assembled. The
notes of Lohengrin's Wedding March,
played by Miss Orpha Howell, who
was accompanied on the violin by
Miss Margaret Coulson, announced
the arrival of the bridal party,
Messrs. A. V. Smith and L. X. Me-
Intosh leading. Following came Miss
Vivian Smith of Mobile, the maid Of
honor, who presented a pretty picture
in coat suit and hat of dark green
and carried an arm bouquet of brides
maid roses Next came the groom
with his best man, Mr.. L. M. Prichard,
of Gulfport. The bride, who was
most attractively gowned in be-
coming suit of dark blue tricotine and
a small spring hat of the same shade
with wedding bouquet of lovely
bride roses and ferns, was given. in
marriage by her brother, Mr.. John
A. Cirlot.
Following the ceremony, Mr.. and
Mrs. Pittman left for bridal trip
through Florida, and upon their re-
turn will go to housekeeping in a
lovely home near Logtown which has
been fitted up for them. Mr.. Pitt
man has recently accepted the posi-
ton of farm superintendent for the
Weston Lumber Company.
The bride was not only showered
with several ante-nuptial parties here,
but in Bay st. Louis also, where she
has served as agent of home eco
nomics of Hancock county. She and
Mr.. Pittman were remembered with
many lovely and useful wedding gifts
besides the many good wishes of
friends here and elsewhere who re-
joice in their happiness and wish
them health and prosperity all
through life's journey together.

That the Chronicle-Star is

The biggest fire that has ever oc-
CURED here or in this vicinity swept
everything IN its trail from the cor
ner of Delmas avenue and Kerr street
to the DR.. VIM. f. Martin building
on Delmas avenue. The fire started
about one o'clock this morning, break
ing out in the Olympia Hotel and
Cafe, operated by A. Voyadjis, and
impelled by high wind, swept TO
the east, consuming the frame build
ings in its path, until it reached the
Dr. Martin building, where firemen
held it in check.
1t is estimated by insurance agents
that the total loss of buildings on
which there was no insurance is
$50, 700; on contents, $4,000. Dam
age to nearby buildings not destroyed
is placed at 5000. The total amount
of insurance carried on the burned
or damaged property is between $12,-
600 and 5000.
Judge Charles L. Chidsey had no
insurance on his residence. as was the
case with several others who lost
their stocks or fixtures.

To fully cooperate with the off

fected a temporary organization

Association Ito be made permanent
at a later date) and committees of
the organization are at work, furnish
ing all necessary houses, and other

school authorities.
Arrangements have been made with
the international Shipbuilding Com
pany for all necessary houses. and
the two large hotels have been mad
ready.
Twelve dwellings will be furnished
at once, and other dwelling as the
soldiers arrive. Several dozen have
already arrived and fifteen or twen-
ty teachers and officers are here. 4
large number of soldiers will arrive
today and will come in daily hereaft-
er, and the townsite is assuming a
busy aspect, much to the satisfaction
of the towrspeople.
Mr.. Edward Ludtke, who is the
local manager, is on the ground d
recting operations.
Messrs. Perry, II. U. Canty and
W. A. Daggett are the housing com
mittee, and all inquiries as to houses
and rooms should be referred to
them.
Citizens feel that the success of
the school and its magnitude depend
upon their cooperation, and, as team
work is always the most effective,
those who have not as yet become
members Of the Housing Association
should do so at once.

ly have gone through the motions of
living and entirely missed the first
purpose of existence. They are a bore
to themselves and a bore to every
body else. Their days are uniform,
monotonous, because in the commun-
ion with their own spirits there is
nothing to fortify, encourage and in
spire.
One man finds every day of his life
drama; each hour bristles with
stimulating incident and reaction, be-
cause he is hard at work and-when
the right hour strikes-hard at play,
finding his golf game or whatever it
may be the more enjoyable because he
has earned it. Another man com
plains that his existence is stupid and
tepid beyond endurance, and that is
because he is asking the world of the
senses to give him everything and is
not seeking to serve with all his
might those who need his aid and are
carrying burden that he might i'm
measureably tighten.
Depend on it, those who are con
stantly looking for fun will fail to
find it and those who think of duty in
the first place and pleasure in the sec
ond are far likelier to discover the
Joy of living and learn that every
day provides adventure and romance

ing, the firemen were able to bring
them under control.
Moss Point firemen responded to
the call with their firefighting equip
ment, and rendered invaluable as
sistance.
The firemen realized the import
ance of keeping the flames from
crossing Delmas avenue, and by skill
full efforts kept the fire confined to
the south side of Delmas avenue.
Several fire fighters were slightly
burned. Miss Ruth Tanner, whose
home in in Wilmer, Ala, and an en-
ploye of the Olympia Hotel, was Sc
riously injured when she jumped
from the second flor of the hotel to
the sidewalk to save herself from the
flames which were enveloping the
building. Her ankle was broken, and
she suffered a sprained back and in
ternal injuries. A subscription
started by Mr.. Norwood Alley quick
ly reached $50, and this was handed
to her this morning.
Officer Storm is to be commended
for his activity in the protection and
salvaging of property, and citizens
generally rendered valuable end he
roc service in fighting the fire.

as his friends and his family, to assume
the burden and seek to solve the simple
as well as the intricate, problems OF
life. The dead are placed beyond the
reach of help or harm, but the living
with their trials and troubles are all
about US, and their needs are innum-
cradle.
We cannot decide the destiny of the
dead, but we can lend hand to bur-
dened living beings. We cannot over
come the working Of nature in life
less body, but we can renew the courage
of our stricken, suffering neighbor. We
cannot increase the ease or comfort of
a form Of clay, but we can help to
assuage the grief of sick and submerged
We cannot change the
processes of life and growth,
OF death and decay, but we can prevent
the invasive acts and unjust treatment
for many of our fellow men.
Work for Living.
The dead shall rest in peace, but for
the living there is work unceasing-the
work Of enlightenment and service
which shall secure for us in life, the
of liberty and justice which
the bleeding but patient people must
gain. If men are just to their fellow
men, and should there be continuity
of conscious personal existence after
death, then natural justice would in
dictate the future to be secure.
When we think of person who has
excelled in physical strength, it Seems
a pathetic thing that he must grow
aged and helpless, but the law Of
nature cannot be changed for the in
dividual. Birth, growth and decay is
inevitable and goes forward in the
minutest particle of inanimatc matter
as it does in the highly organized and
Intelligent individual. Change is the
law. Man is but unit in
the great cosmos and he responds to
the change as natural necessity indi-
