There are efforts wherein there Is
little danger of man OVERRIDING it,
but it is needless to add these are
not among things that appeal to his
vanity or to his pocket nerve. Sculp-
turing the face of Stone Mountain Is
splendid undertaking; sculpturing
every bold rock in the land would
be a nuisance, a descent from the
sublime to the ridiculous.

 Another round of applause burst forth from the members, following MT. Evarts' speech. Then, presid- ing officer asked MT. Mcintosh, a former resident of Seward, for a few remarks. MT. Mcintosh said:
 Wants to Remain.
 After an absence of seven years I too, am impressed with the out look. While I was resident of your town, number of years ago, it seemed to me that things were progressing very slowly. But now it appears as though the town was thoroughly woke up. Everywhere substantial looking buildings are be- ing erected and the old ones being torn down. The outlook, indeed, looks very bright. I really am thinking seriously, if I can persuade Mrs. Mo Intosh, to remain here once again The conclusion of MT. McIntosh's re- marks was the signal for much hand clapping. MT.

And They Generally Slip.

There are men and women in
every community who are satisfied
to stand still. They Go not take
an interest in progress. They are
apparently willing to slip along
from day to day-neither looking
up nor forward. If their eyes were
in the rear of their head, they
would fit their views on life, for
most of their time is spent in the
days of their past. They are con-
tent just to live, without progress,
without enterprise and almost with
out hope that the future can give
them anything better than has
passed in their lives. It's hopeless
to waste time in attempting to re-
form these. Better spend your
time with the younger generation,
whose minds are yet plastic. Brod-
