The only final enemies are the good and the bad
the true and the fasle. These at odds in every
struggle, though the human share in their
fare may be corfused beyond divination. Yet man
is either that fights for the right he confesses
to himself that right does not concern him and that
his loyaltes to be sold for his ambitions In such
strife the sincere cannot yield unless he first
renders his convictions the man with 70 convictions
beyond his ambit ons and viii give ground
for what he may get out of it.
Truth is always under the fire of his enemies
and has also within the gates of it's citadel another
enemy, who tempts with the quick peace of comprom-
se This is the traitor who is ready to meet the enemy

its advantages will yield gate or tower under

Much honest conviction and many institutions

to expediency Remembering this, clear-sighted and

DIR. FRANK CRANE

DR.. Frank Crane has gone to that strange
bourne from which no traveller returns" Seventeen
years ago his editorial began to appear in
the newspapers, and in a short time recognt on.
He became famous and earned through his writings
something like one hundred and fifty thousand dol
lars year. The world was quick to respond. He had
something that the world wanted He had the gift of
expressing beautiful sentiments in beautiful way
inspiring and iHspir.ting all of us.
At the age of fifty he climbed down from an
derpaid pulpit to brave field. Courageousy he
started out, If he youth, to deliver his ser
mons in way-via the printed word. In ed-
torals in newspapers, he penned praise of all that
is noblest and finest in the nature of man. encourag
ing his readers to live full lives devoted to the Good
and the True and the Beautiful His articles are
said to have been read by as many twenty million
people, of whom could have helped being in
fluenced for the better by the lessons of ovngkind
ness, faith and contentment that he taught.
DR.. Cranes influence will not die with him, for
he set an example to host of men of religion now
teaching through the medium of the printed word.
Nor will Dr. Cranes editorials de-people will be
reading them long after most writing of this period
is forgotten.
His great success proves how eager persons real
ly for moral truth expressed in language that
they understand. The death of Dr. Crane is a
great loss to the American public whom he had
such singular!y fine, ennobling influence.

leave to those of lesser faith the hazardous peace of

obstinacy of the free spirit few things worth while
