MEANDERINCS OF A MILDLY
MILITANT MIND
IN THE WAKE OF DEVASTATING FLAMES

provided by those whose places es-
capped destruction, old firms are back
on the job.
The click Of the telegraph key is
heard. Wires that were out of COM
mission yesterday are working today.
A reliable bank is "open for bust
ness" at a new stand.
The post office is carefully and sat
isfactorily taking care of Uncle Sans
mail matters just around the corner.
The public is being served faithfully
as ever.
Architects are on the scene. New
buildings are being planned.
The ability 10 achieve, the loyalty
of man to man, the faith that over
comes fear, and the hope that inspires
renewed effort have survived the de-
VISITATION of the the merciless flames.
In the hour of disaster human
hearts knit together in stronger ties
than they ever know in days of per-
feet calm.
Strength reveals itself when bur-
dens are heaviest.
We can not know till we are tested
just how much we can bear.
And, over and over, with lives that
go to prove the truth of their asser-
ton, it is said by those who bear I'M
questionably heavy burdens, that
strength is always given sufficient to
their need.
The ruins of today will disappear.
Faith in the best survives memory
CT that which seems worst.
1t takes courage to hang unto our
faith, courage to cling to worthy
hopes that seem futile, courage to
look life in the face and be glad.
But-courage, the real thing, is
here in Pocomoke today!
Flames, spiritual flames of golden
glory, follow in the wake of devast-
ating fires, and over the ruins which
we see there hovers the fadeless light
of love and sympathy, loyalty and
faith, kindness and generosity, and
of courage and true cheer.

One moment a beautiful little city
followed the pursuits of it's peaceful
prosperous life, the next sheets Of fire
flashed above the tree tops and over
its heart stretched wings of destruc-
ton and death.
Men and boys worked like mad to
stay the flames, but fury of wind
swept them onward.
Women in the path of danger des-
Ierately struggled to save something
Of their homes.
The fire sped on.
Business blocks and residence Sec
tions in few brief hours were in
ruins. Ragged outlines of brick struc-
lures rose from beds of ashes where
tongues of flame lazily Tapped rem
nants of buildings utterly destroyed.
Dazed and saddened, throngs
crowded the steaming, debris-littered
streets; lone individuals threaded
their way through clouds of smoke to
look upon the spot where the mater
ial result of life-time's effort lay in
ashes; little groups, drawn together
by a common bond of loss, formed
here and there and talked in hushed
voices of the calamity which had be-
fallen them; strong men wept.
On the outskirts of the town, on va
cant lots, little heaps of household eff
fects lay, for The most part motley
collections of odds and ends, all that
remained of cozy comfortable homes.
Some there were, destitute; glad to
escape with their lives.
A night and day pass.
Twenty-four hours-and a miracle
is wrought!
The ruins shoulder and gradually
grow cold, but from them rises spir-
it which sends the soul of man to its
knees in reverence and praise.
The hum of hopeful activity is there
not silence broken by sobs and
sighs!
Business is going on. Homes are
re-established.

ture the automobilists' vote and that
of other minor elements by favorable
enactments are also being made.

BOMBAY LECTURER PRAISES ST

DR.. S. l.. JOSH of the University of
Bombay, India, spoke last week at the
Little Theater on the U. of M. campus
Explaining his contention that Chris
tian missionaries will find it hard to
convert India, he said this would be
due to the lack of religious fervor
shown by Europeans who visit India
II the Indian observes the lack of fer
vor among the layman who visits his
country, it cannot be expected that he
will take seriously the teachings of the
clergyman who comes from that coun
try.
He paid high tribute to the religious
work of st. Francis Xavier, Catholic
missionary, who demonstrated that he
had the capacity to implant Chris
tianity in India. He said that st
Francis Xavier has instilled into the
people of India the spirit of self-sacri
flee which is one of their predominant
qualities.
