Spain's Brief Reaction.

Spain's military revolt appears to
any bloodshed. 1t was one Of the
speediest bits of work ever accom-
plished in the way of a revolution. It
was not anti-monarchical, but anti
ministerial. It's purpose was to effect
the custer of the cabinet, and it sue
ceeded.
This reaction in King Alfonso's
domain is not in the least inspired by
hostility to him. On the contrary, he
has been assured by the army leaders
who promoted the revolt of their en-
tire fealty. They are, indeed, seeking
to aid him in overcoming certain con-
ditions harmful to the best interests
of Spain.
This issue turns Immediately upon
the attitude Of the now retiring min
istry toward the military campaign in
Morocco The army chiefs desired a
vigorous campaign there, bat the gov
ernment held them in check. There
is no assurance that the country at
large SuppOI u tHe army. "A lhoiOu5A
enforcement of Spanish authority
south of the Straits of Gibraltar would
be costly and the country is not
friendly toward any expensive mill
tary enterprise which would add to the
burden of taxation, already heavy. So
that It is not assured that the success
of the revolt that originated at BARGE
Iona and that has caused the custer of
the ministry will be followed by a
sharp prosecution of the war in Africa.
But at any rate the immediate cause
of friction is removed, and unless some
new element develops Spain is likely
to subside into placidity after a brief
flash of arms.

Saws America Is
Woman S Paradise

CHICAGO, May 1.-The poorest
woman in the United States is in
finitely better off than the peon
women of South America, Bishop w.
f. Oldham, of Buenos Aires, declared
at a meeting of the employees and
staff Of the Committee on Conserva-
ton and Advance of the Methodist
Episcopal church here.
Bishop Oldham has just returned
from South America and Mexico. He
said: "You. can rate civilization from
the place that women hold in that
particular country. There used to be
an idea hat woman had no real
place in the world.
''If there are any young women
here who are disconnected and wish
ing that they we're rich, think of the
mass of wome-- in the peon class in
South America who are not as re.
spected as the women of the United
States. The poorest of you is rich
when compared with these"
The bishop said that the owner
I ship of millions of acres of land b.
rich landlords was detrimental to tht
advancement of the poems. The peor
women. especially in South America
| he declared, live in little shacks in
small villages and are degraded spec
linens of humanity, depressed, with
absence of all hope, ambition and
aspiration.
There should be no d~iscsntented
women in America because they are
well cared for, and have good
homes" Bishop Oldham concluded.

AN EDUCATED HEART

No one can dispute the advantages of an educated
mind. One should grasp every opportunity for such
an education. But there is an education that is even more
essential than education of the mind, if one would find real
success in lfe-that is the education of the heart.
Education Of the mind is fine. Education of the heart is
superine.
What is an educated heart? 1t is a heart that knows
values.
The value of honesty. Have you sensed it? There is no
legacy as rich as an honest mind and an honest heart.
The value of laughter, song and merriment. "Mlrth is
Gods best medicine Have you proved its worthg
The value of sympathy. Have you know its balm? If you
have you know its value.
The value of a controlled will. Do you know its power?
If you are conquering bad habits; if you are overcoming many
of lifes oppostions, if you are able to keep uppermost your
better nature then you are learning its true value.
The value of true friendship. Have you known its Joy
and comfortg Have you doubled your joys and halved your
sorrows because you have shared them with a friendi
The value of kindness. The gracious word, the thoughtful
act, the good t.rn. Are rot these the things that give fra
GRANGE to life?
The natural gifts of the universe; the green of the fields,
the beauty of a sunset and the song of a bird. Do you know
their value?
The educated heart keeps beauty III the mind, melody in
the spirit and sunlight in the soul. Have YOU an educated
