The Old South Meeting House

The Old South Meeting House or
Washington street, Boston, was erect
ed in 1929, has played an important
part in the history of the city, and is
often called the Temple of Free
dom" 1t was frequently used as a
meeting place of the disaffected
previous to the outbreak of the
Revolution; and from it's doors went
forth, in 1878, the band of disguised
Bostonians that threw the tea into
the harbor. During the British occu
patton of Boston in Hts, the "Oid
South" was converted into a riding
school for the cavalry; but, on the
evacuation of the city, it was re-
stored to it's original use. The church
barely escaped destruction in the
Boston fire of 1872; and, at a later
period, was used temporarily as a
postofRce. The Old South Society
worshiped there from 1929 to 1875,
when it removed to a new structure
at the corner of Boylston ad Dart
mouth streets. In 1876, the "Old
South Meeting House" was soldAthe
intention being to tear it down and
replace it with business block. It
was. however. purchased by the pres
ervation committee for $3.50, 900, and
converted into loan museum of his
toric relics-including portraits, old
furniture. flags and weapons.

The day was windy and raw and
one might have wondered at this
fellows happy smile, seeing that he
was on the way for days fishing on
the wind-swept lake, with little lik-
lThood of bringing back other than
cold feet, cramped limbs and face
redeemed by unusual exposure. Yet
he came back smiling, though we
didn't notice any fish. And the rea-
son of it, as was later learned, was
most happily expressed by Bruce
Barton in lines this young man keeps

can and do approve. Considering the
letter Roosevelt wrote to Senator
Fall, in which he expressed the hope
for a new and proper treaty, that III
some such treaty as you suggest
could be negotiated, it would be a
capital thing" there is no occasion to
regard the adoption of this treaty as
an insult to his memory Those who
are objecting on that ground may
not be using weasel words" but are
resorting to deceit. It is time to have
this matter over with and get down
to business, such as the budget sys-
tenn or the revision of the tax laws,

HEARD WHAT ANOTHER
WOMAN SAID

Mrs Margaret Bonniere of Murray
Street. st. John. N. b.. writes: q
heard a lady saying she bought a
bottle OF DR.. True's Elixir for her
children. and it was splendid. 1 got
bottle and think it is great"
The laxative mentioned above is
DR.. True's Elixir, the Family Laxa-
tive and Worm Expeller. 1t is very
pleasant to take; children like il, and
1t is mild in action. No harmful
drugs.
It's surprising to know the number
OF youngsters and even grown ups
who suffer from worms but don't
realize it. Every one needs a good
laxative.
Common symptoms of worms:
Offensive breath. swollen upper lip
sour stomach, eyes heavy and dull
itching of the nose, grinding of the
teeth. red points on the tongue. slow

Those who instinctively feel aver
sion at sight of cruelty to animals
may not be in need of be-kind-t to-
animals week. There are, however,
the characters being formed, who
have not had the time or the oppor-
tunity to acquire the full measure of
intelligence, which should accom-
pany the instinct. Indeed many an
otherwise decent boy seems to pos
sess an instinct for cruelty which
may after all be simply lack of COM
prehension of the suffering he inflicts
and not indicate that he will be a
cruel man. Observance of ways and
means to inform him may serve to
prevent cruelty. Through the print
ed page incidents and stories which
reveal the animals capacity for
thinking and feeling are helpful. The
boy, who is fascinated with the mar
rative of a bird building her nest,
the toll and trouble she undergoes to
provide a suitable home and the al
most human intelligence she displays
in her efforts, will be much less like
ly to destroy that home. The lad,
reading of the dog out in Pennsyl-
vania that was accustomed to lift
the cap from the cream jar on the
back steps and help himself to the
cream, is likely to have a sort Of fell
low feeling for that dog.

ADOPT TREATY AND GET BUSY

USSVs sHeHS NNO 1G oO0v
All things considered it seems ad-
visable that the Senate should, ap-
prove the Colombian treaty. The
amount TO be paid Colombia is large
and Colombia's attitude has not been
such as to merit it. Moreover it is
to be doubted whether she will be
impressed with the idea that we are
doing it because Of sense of recti-
tude. If we were doing it as a mat
ter of justice we should have made
the treaty long ago. The conclusion
is that we recognize Colombia's hos
tility, for several reasons, to be that
which we wish to avoid.
There should have been proper
draft of a treaty in the first place.
There was no occasion for this coun-
try to apologize and had those who
framed the treaty thought more of
their country and less or playing pol
itics they would not have framed It
as they did. That treaty was not ac-
ceptable. Now one has been drawn
