THOUGHT NOT REALLY RAPID
Mind Moves Comparatively Slowly,
Notwithstanding Expression That
Has Become Common.

"As quick as thought" Is an express
sion much used to denote the acme
of speed In action, but, like so many
popular expressions. this one Is mis-
leading. Thought, or at least the men
tai registering of a sensation. Is not
an exceedingly speedy process, the
thought impulse moving at the com
paratively slow speed of ITO feet a
second. or rs miles an hour. Light
travels nearly nine Ipillion times as
swiftly. Thought would be hopelessly
beaten in race with a motorcar.
Perhaps good illustration Of the
comparative slowness of thought
waves Is to assume that a man had
an arm rs miles long and that, when
he was not looking friend should
grasp his hand. Before the owner of
that arm became conscious that his
hand had been touched, the friend
would have released II. and had time
to walk four miles or eat very ex
tensive dinner.-Kansas City Star.

He Was stumped,

Back In an inland town in Illinois in
the early days there was justice OF
the peace who was very nearsighted
One sumer day he made out some sub.
poenas TO be served on witnesses, and
dozed of. A fly lit in his inkwell, ex-
tracted itself after some difficulty. and
crawled onto one Of the subpoenas.
The constable, who was something of
practical Joker, picked up the paper,
and pointing to the fly tracks, said
"Jndge, what is that manner"
The judge held the paper close to his
eyes and squinted at 1t for few min
utcs. Then scratching his head in per-
pleXity, he answered:

right. but darned II can make out the

Easter Services at the Catholic Church

Easter Services at the Catholic Church
The Easter Sunday services were
unusually impressive and elaborate.
st. Francis de Sales church was
filled to capacity at the 7:30 am. Mass
and again at the High Mass at 1915
said by the pastor Father M. Boyle.
The sanctuary was very attractiyely
decorated with a background of soft
green and touches of Easter Lilies,
while carnations, roses and ferns form
ed a beautiful setting for the altar.
The sermon at the High Mass was
delivered by Father w. B. Mayer, Phi.
D., d. D., of Chicago and was a most
able presentation of the facts of the
Resurrection substantiated by accurate
historical references. Logic, penetra-
tion and polished delivery marked the
sermon.
Leonard's Mass in E Flat with the
"Sanctus" from Lordelli was rendered
by the choir under the direction of
Father Mayer, who is musician of
exceptional ability.
The solists were Father Mayer, bar
itone, Mrs. George Blizzard soprano,
Mrs. Edward Hertzog alto, Thomas
Garlic bass and Mrs. E. H. Browne at
the organ.
Benediction of the Blessed Sacra-
ment followed the Mass. The services
concluded with the chorale, "Holy God,
We Praise Thy Name"

WASHINGTON Letter
First Year Achievements of G. o. p.

FIRST Year Achievements Of u. U. 4.
Washington, Apr. 1S.-(Special cor
respondence) )-Ihe broad and unsub-
stantlated assertion OF the Democratic
campaign managers that the Republi-
can administration has accomplished
nothing was adequately answered by
Representative Simeon d. Fess, of
Ohio, in an address delivered at the
end of the first year of Republican
rule. Mr.. Fess reviewed in detail the
several measures adopted for the re-
storation of peace conditions, the ad-
option of budget system, emergency
relief for farmers, care of disabled
veterans, ETC., and then summed up
the whole record in the following
words:
Zone year ago Warren G. Harding
found the Nation with her relations
with many foreign countries strained
to almost the breaking point, her fun
damental principles under discussion,
her historic Significance in question,
her population surfeited with the pro-
fits of war and wild extravaganza,
her industries inflated by over-expan-
sion from war demands, and problems
of reconstruction, complicated and i'm
minent.
To-day he sees peace again estab-
lished with all countries, foreign rela-
tions resumed with honor to ourselves
and complete justice to others, the fin
est attitude of the world toward our
moral leadership as evinced in the
arms conference, policy of proper re-
gard for the defenders of the Nations
rights, an economic administration up
on the soundest principles of economy,
reduction of our public funded debt
to the amount of $4,000, ,OOO, 900 and
reduction of our floating debt of $780,
100000, a reduced taxation of over
three quarters of billion dollars per
year, rejunivated agriculture and in
dustrial fabric sorely distressed by the
havoc of war, the prospect of gener-
al employment Of American labor in
American industries.
"Out of this utter confusion of
year ago President Harding today pre-
sents this record of the year of Re-
publican administration with the addi-
tional information that this is the only
country which is not only balancing
its budget but has really reduced the
war debt, and has restored her credit,
and displays signs of promise on all
hands of n resumption again of our
happy and promising stage which pre-
ceded the inauguration of the Demo-
cratic foibles of the New Freedom
and policies of suspicion and prosecu-
tion of success.
Such is the achievement of the
first year of the Harding administra-
tion, which, in the main, has been re-
sisted inch by inch by solid Demo-
cratic vote, and with which we gladly
go to the country for the peoples ver-
dict.
I'VE gladly accept the challenge of
our friends, the enemy, to take their
stand on the League of Nations as
their remedy in readjustment. and pre-
sent the record Of this Administration
for the peoples decision.
"of the result there can be no doubt.
The people are too close to the last
administration to fail to connect effect
back to cause"

attractive church or they would not
claim it. But of course they could
not be expected to do n church
work, or any constructive piece of
community service. Nobody is so
foolish as to ask it. They would no
doubt look upon one of Beecher's
definitions of religion as vulgar,
Religion means work. Religion means
work in a dirty world. Religion means
peril, blows given, but blows taken as
well. Religion means transformation.
The world is to be cleaned by some
body and you are not called of God

Orangeburg, Nov. 17.-Mr. ana
Mrs. T. M. Livingston, Of Columbia,
miraculouly escaped instant death
near Orangeburg last night, when
thew were returning to Columbia
from the Orangeburg fair. Just above
the little flag station of Stilton, about
three miles to the North Of Orange
burg, a. portion of the new highway
is being constructed to cross the
Southern railway track by an over
head bridge, the approaches being
constructed, but the bridge not built
as vet. There was no notice, it is sald'
or anything to indicate where one
new highway left the old or to ~sho"
that the road was closed to trafdc, the
road apparently being open and very
good. Mr.. and Mrs. Livingston came
to Oraageburg by another route dur
ing the morning and had no notice OF
this trap and when Mr.. Livingston
reached the brink Of the 80 foot en-
bankment. the car fell to the rail-
road track below. The Studebaker
touring car was demolished and the
passengers severely bruised and cut
and shocked Luckily Mr.. and Mrs.
Livingston did not bring their chill
dren to the fair.
