tence:
 self cynical, when you doubt the eternal verities, make sure that you are not becoming a blind man.
 For the blind man in the story said there were no such things and many of us who possess eyes are all too prone to deny that which we cannot visual ize. And sad, indeed are those who have not enough of love and loyalty and unselfishness in their own lives to enable them to recognize those quail ties in others.

CIVILIZATION BASED
 ON METALS

Commenting on the manner in which modern civilization has been built up through intimate knowledge of metals and their use, the Western Journal of Fi- nance says:
 "This is an age of metals. Turn which way you will you cannot escape the miners pro- duct.
 What time is it? Look at your watch. That tiny, wonder full mechanism is drawn from many mines. Rubies, gold, sill yer, nickel, platinum, copper, diamonds, perhaps, or sapp- hires, steel-the watchmaker, a master-craftsman in metals, draws the materials from which he works from the shores of the Seven Seas and the mountains of five conti- nents.
 How is business? The ticker tells its story with little wheels of metal. See what it is saying :
 " Domestic copper, 24c a pound; export 24 5-8.' Copper is going up.
 Keep watching the ticker Silver goes up a fraction. Lead that humble servant of man, is going up. Zine, very slowly, is going up. Day after day, week after week for weeks and months these prices have been slowly rising.
 What has been the result !? Mines are paying the biggest dividends in their history. New mines preparing to go into pro- duction are going to begin shipping on a superb market for metals.
 Get in on a good mining proposition. If you know of some stock in a good mine now developing in preparation for shipping, buy it and hold onto it."

A negro woman of large pro- portions was in a motor car ac- cident. She was transported to hospital, where she soon re- gained consciousness. The at tending doctor, seeking to com- fort her, said:
 "You undoubtedly will be able to obtain considerable amount of damages, Mrs John son."
 "Damages!" cried the dusky lady" What An want wifi damages? Gawd knows An dun got too much damages now. What An wants is re- pairs !"

There was a man born blind and he said: I do not believe in the world of light and color. There is no sun, no moon, no stars. No one has ever seen these things"
 And all about us there are men who say: There is no such thing as love. There is TO such thing as loyalty. There is no such thing as unselfish- ness. There is no such thing as virtue. All these things are but dreams and visions.
 Why do they says these things? You think that per- haps they do not mean what they say. You think that they are just talking for effect or to raise an argument.
 The case is much sadder than that. They give voice to such beliefs because they are men who are blind. Perhaps they were born as blind men and never had a decent chance to get their eyes open. Perhaps they have become blind thru habits of thought and action.
 At any rate they are like the man in the Buddist book; they are blind and they say there is no love, no loyalty, no virtue. They are to be pitied because hey are spiritual cripples. They have never experienced
 he finer emotions of life in heir own darkened lives or hey have not had those emot- ions often enough and strong enough to believe in their re- ality.
 You who read this may never look out of the window in the night. Nevertheless the stars are very beautiful. Be sure of hat.
 The next time you hear a man or woman deny life's beauties, it's spiritual achievements, its satisfactions, it's deep and worthwhile experiences, do not be misled. Life is all right. Folks, for the most part, are all so all right. But you are talk ing to the blind; for they are nothing less than blind.
 Have look at yourself, too, and your own emotions and conclusions. When you are dis couraged, when you find your

BurI kincaid

The following obituary sketch
furnished by the family, was read al
the funeral of Burl Kincaid:
Burl Kincaid was born at Crooks
vile, Ohio, Feb %, 1912, Depart
ed July 28, 1929, at the age of II
years, 5 months, 6 days.
He was the fourth child given TO
Mr.. and Mrs. A. NJ. Kincaid, and
leaves his father, mother, his broth
ers, Amos and Cecil and one sister,
Olive, to keep watch until that
Great Day. Besides these who wait
hosts of relatives and friends, to
whom his life was an inspiration
and a benediction, will cherish his
memory as long as life shall endure.
Early in life he fully understood
his duties and privileges, and con-
fessed his Savior, and became q
member of the Church OF Christ at
Crooksville; to which he contributed
a consistent life until death.
On the very day of his death he
had attended both Sunday school
and church. Being the only one of
the family to attend Sunday school,
he went home after the session and
accompanied father and mother to
church. His public school record
was more than the ordinary, as all
his teachers will testify, and at the
time of his death he was a senior
in the high school at McCOnnelsville,
from which he would have gradu-
ated in the spring OF 1890.
Burl was a young man who ad-
mired the beautiful in persons and
things, and so expressed himself
He could combine the works of ma
ture in a manner to make them
more beautiful and thus he aided
in the decorations Of the home, both
on the inside and out
He loved his home dearly; and
because of his great concern for ii,
much OF his spare time was spent
with mother in discussing it's needs
and in helping her to bear it's bur-
dens. He was frugal, always count
ing the cost before proceeding. He
was lover Of flowers; and among
the beautiful floral pieces in his
home at this time, perhaps the
most significant Of all, is one Sc
lected from the garden planted and
nurtured by his own hands.
Burl was unselfish beyond mea
sure for a young man of his age;
and therefore, very considerate as
to the needs of others, always see
ing that their wants were supplied,
before appropriating anything to
himself. He had very high re-
gard for age; and demonstrated ii
in his manner Of speech to them
and his acts of kindness toward
them. 1t can truthfully be said Of
him that his wants were always in
harmony with his needs; and so his
requests were invariably granted
cheerfully by father and mother.
Truly his was a wonderful life;
replete with gladness and hope,
and so gracious, as to appeal TO all
who knew him.
But Burl is dead: Dead. Shall
we say? No. He is not dead, but
sleepeth: And the inspiration of his
life shall go on and on forever.
Burl, you were a noble son; and
although your race was short, your
work was well and nobly done.
God knows best. Sleep in peace.
