This World First
BY NORA COLE SKINNER

And inyar! ably after the bencdiction
we turn and shake hands and chat
with friends and acqualntAnCes
about affairs In common; and in
variably we say as we make no note
OF the new members name; Good
ness. | don't even get time to call on
people who have called on me,
much less so out and hunt up new
ones | never heard of"
Church people are Just ordinary
humans, with but a little moro eN-
peCted of them because they have
publicly prufessed TO be trying to
live In harmony with the golden
rule. The world. as a whole, is lax
I'm the outward evidences OF good
fellowship.
A man from a distant city moved
into our midst some two years ago.
He didn't Ike our metropolis at all.
In his former home he held one Of
the highest appointlve government
positions to be had ana ne and his
family enjoyed wide and congenial
social circle, but a corporation, ever
on the lookout for shrewd legal
minds, persuaded him to resign and
come to them, and he took up his
new duties without flare or Circuiu-
stance Talking confidentially he
said he regretted the move, that all
the money I'm the world could not
make up for proper intercourse
with pleasing, worth-w while friends
and that our city was the coldest
community he had ever known"
a year later he was asked about
IL again.
Il like II better" he said, "G've
gotten use to It. Through my office
and through the church we have
made few aoquaintances --. OF
course, no friends. but I have found
that there IS nothing personal IN
the aloofness OF the people that
they treat each other that way
Every body attends to his own husi-
ness very agreeable when paths
cross but living with a sort Of you
let-me-alone and Fll-let-y -you-aione
understanding. I've grown to rather
like it--though it's not my idea OF
life"
No and It's not anybody's idoa OF
life. We miss n great deal by not
cultlvating new and worthy people
who move into our midst. They
cannot approach us-we would be
through with them forever II they
pushed" yet bv our thoughtless
selfish ignoring " them we create
there a distaste for our town. n dis
like of ourselves. and a bitterness
against humanity In general,
No place is so depressing as a
church fun OF people and none OF
them known. But IL one OF them
who is an old-timer speaks 60 one
who IS n stranger. Il makes life on
earth more bearahle, and life IN
heayen--more sertain.

Editor world. At the time ofou late and
much regretted race riot. you expressed with
clear vision and wonderful ability what be
lieved to be the opinion of the large majority
OF our citzona on the question Of doing iusticc
ment for the property destroyed or the rebuild
ing Of the burned district or In Attempting TO
do material justice in some other form. 4 com
mittce OF representative citizens was appointed
under the very high sounding and dlgnified title
OF the intcr-racial committee,

and desire 20 make this statement without
fear OF successful contradiction; That regard
lees ot whether we flX the blame for the overt
act that led to the riot on man whose skin
was black or ON one whose skin was white, or

community cannot close their eyes TO the RE-

II occurs to me to suggest that when the
sunday revival meetings are over that this
committee, of which / understand "A number OF
our representative CLERGY men are members
might arrange TO have tho use OF the sunday
tabernacle until warm weather and al lttic
additional expense necessary plumbing could
be installed and partitions could be placed

used To house and care for a large number OF
