came TO a resolution, which she made

CHAPTER VIII.
The Fight.

Inc rfght.
Little by little Paul Pendlehaven
taught her, and little by little Tony's
salvation boy preached his lessons of
Universal Love to her; and the eager
young mind drank in the knowledge as
a thirsty plant takes in water.
There were no signs of Uriah and
Edith returning, and Tonnibel grew
daily more hopeless when she thought
of her mother. Perhaps she would
never see her again. She had strenu-
ously refused to speak of her people
to Paul Pendlehaven.
Doctor John noticed as the days
passed how much better his brother
was looking, and no wonder his own
heart warmed hourly to the curly
headed waif who had come among
them so mysteriously.
Unknown to either of the doctors,
Mrs. Curtis and her daughter had been
able to keep Tony Devon from meet
ing Philip MacCauley in the house. At
first John Pendlehaven had insisted
that Tony attend the family table, but
both Paul and the girl decided that
her meals should be served in the sick
room. Perhaps if Philip MacCauley
hadn't been interested in a certain lit
tie girl on a canal boat, his curiosity
would have taken him to Paul's apart
ments to make the acquaintance of
the little companion John Pendlehaven
had casually spoken of.

Tonnibel had reached the canal boat
and had changed to her old clothes
when suddenly she heard footsteps on
the path beside the Hoghole. Her
heart almost leapt out of her mouth.
Perhaps her mother was coming home. :
perhaps her father. Tremblingly she f:
peeped out through the aperture. She 4:

W. Lack 4 sense q Values.

I want to thank the many who
called me last week TO say they
wanted to help IN making up a fund
covering the amount Of money
which certain worthy colored
woman lost on her way home about
ten days ago. The longer l live the
more real, big Rouled, sympathetic
people run across III l have
learned nothing else in my work on

know human beings more nearly as
they really are. I believe the trout
BILE with most OF us is we lack the
ability to really know humans. We
either credit them with virtues they
never had or we condemn them for
traits they don't possess. And most
frequently we fail to appreciate the
fine qualities hidden beneath the
surface. We lack a sense OF values
and so often imagine because an in
diYidual doesn't wear his heart in
q conspicuous place, he is minus
that acquisition.
There is one characteristic in par
ticular, typical Of q large majority
of persons in Tairmont and vicinity.
I can laugh over It now but there
was a time in my life when I grew
angry because I had friends who
said the least about the things they
felt the most. The habit OF re-
pressing all instincts is one seldom

fatty deny what they believe the

FolIowing the announcement Mr..

was docs the Employe Want Rep

would allow him to dIgresR from his
st16iect that he would not fill tho

Mr; Watson took up tho question OF

and the employe in particular the
relation OF supervisor to employe

Following Mr.. Watson the Rev.
lDr. Claude H. King, pastor OF the
First Methodist Episcopal church,
twas presented and made a short
talk which was greatly enjoyed by
iall present
eli. Lamar next presented Judge
iShowalter who after entertaining
his audience for several minutes
with q numbCr Of original and ex-
ceeding well told stories he then
took up his subject and handled It
In his usual high class manner.
Parts OF Judge Showalter's address
were as followe:
The time was when tho capitalist
who invested his money in indus
try was a naughty autocrat, when
the man who toiled for daily wage
in HIS factory was virtually a slave
and the manager a. cruel driver.
But that time is past. 4 new elc-
ment has been injected into our
Industrial relationship. The hui
man element. And 1t Is no longer
q question of the master SO exploit
ing his business as to make the
larPcst possible dividend and pay
ing. to the servant the smallest
pittaRCe with which he can be put
on, but 1t Is now the earnest pur-
pose OF all, that labor shall be paid
It's fair proportionate share OF tho
profits Of the industry to the end
the workman may possess and en-
joy the reasonable comfort OF
life, that he may give his children
the opportunity to obtain an cdu.
cation and be able to lay by come
thing OF his earnings for sickness
and old age. Instead under con
ditions as they now exist labor gets
its share even though capital
must go sometimes without It's
dividends.
No, the employer is not a stuff.
cd club and the employe an autom-
atom rs sometimes represented in
cartoons; they are both human
beings capable OF appreciation and
sympathy; qualities which cannot
be over exercised: see to 1t gen
tle1neu that their demonstration

men, fashioned after the image Of
their creator; mon possessing hu.
man virtues and human passions;
men who walk and sleep and thinl;

who have been placed side by side
