WEST POINT ACADEMY

WEST POINT ACADEMY
On March Is. 1902, the United
States Military Academy at West
Point was founded. Long before, In
fact, in the first days Of the Ameri-
can Revolution, West Point played an
important part In the military affairs
Of the nation. There was q time, at
the beginning Of that war. when its
capture by the British would have
been fatal to the American cause.
At various times. between Its and
l780, West Point was fortified. at q
total cost Of $1,000. 900. This compar-
atively huge amount indicates the
value at which the location was held
by America. The Polish patriot
Kosciuszko served for some time as
chief engineer Of the Notifications
A unique part of the defense works
was massive iron chain stretched
across the channel from West Point
to Constitution Island to prevent the
approach Of hostile ships.
Constitution Island is now q part Of
the academy reservation. It was
given to the government In 1908 BY
Mrs. Russell Sage and brings the total
area of the grounds up to 3574 acres.

THE PAY ROLL

The pay roll and pay day products of modern in
dustriasm. They did not exist when the human race
was divided into slaves and masters, even during
the period OF hand craftsmen, when workmen laborcd
alon: in their homes. Today both are commonplace.
Perhaps it is because it universal and common
place that people never look upon the pay roll in its
true light as the life blood Of the community To mer-
chanS pay days have always been good business days
and yet early merchants received as great discovery
the idea that every day would be good business day
in tn. town city with industries SO numerous and
diversified as to make every day pay day
Pay rolls mean business for merchants taxes with
which to run local governments homes schools churches
Charity public improvements and public contentment
The more pay rolls the more of all OF these community
assets And finally and Of greater Importance, pay
rolls mean employment for the conmunity's surplus
labor an attractions which lure new workers and new
families
For these reasons progressive. growing communities
throughout the United States offer inducements to new
industries. Each new factory means another pay roll
The offers include free land low taxes cheap fuel or
water local capital and free use of buildings for
limited periods.

A LESSON FROM HISTORY

Many are the nations Of the past
that have flourished and declined
Babylon. Assyria, Egypt. Pheonicia.
Greece and Rome. In some cases the
disappearance Of these once powerful
nations can be accounted for by the
invasion Of foreign warriors, but in
other cases the exact cause Is not diff
ficult to ascertain. All Of them have
this in common: when these nations
were young, the individuals Of each
nation were hardy and vigorous: they
lived on plain foods: they were physi-
cally powerful and had but few lux
uries. As the nations prospered, the
individuals became Weather. Instead
Of working themselves, they had slaves
or hirelings to do the work for them.
They enjoyed luxuries. idleness and
rich foods.
The citizens of these nations con-
sidered themselves superior to other
nations. They would no longer un-
dergo long marches nor till the soil.
Foreigners should do their work and
fight In their armies. In the course
Of time these foreigners became more
numerous than the citizens. They
also became stronger and more able
to survive. AS Goldsmith stated in his
famous poem. "The Deserted Village" !"
III fares the land, to Fastening Ills
q prey. Where wealth accumulates,
and men decay"
The Greeks were q mighty race,
with individuals as beautifully formed
as have ever been seen. They had
many intellectual geniuses until they
adopted the luxurious effeminate
habits Of the Persians. The Greeks
conquered the Persians. but the Per-
slams had their revenge. for their
customs conquered the Greeks.
Then mighty Rome flourished, and
with the legions of her own men swept
over the Grecian states. Rome con-
Quered Greece, but Greece had its re-
venge. for the Grecian luxuries and
vices were imported to Rome. Grecian
cooks. doctors and teachers flocked to
Rome. They became the vogue, and
Rome. for the first time, learned the
art OF self-enjoyment and idleness.
The stern and vigorous Romans were
Softened by the luxuries of Greece
and became easy prey to the virile
Teuton armies. The Romans. too
weak to fight themselves, expected to
be defended by foreign mercenaries,
and the decline Of the Roman Empire
began. Race suicide became universal
throughout Rome, as children were
nuisances to the rich and burdens to
the poor.
History shows US many examples
where nations decay before they are
conquered. The rot. produced by
luxury and rich food. is far more
DANGEROUS than any foreign enemy.

the fall Of Babylon, Assyria. Egypt,
Tyre and even Jerusalem itself. be-

Daily Lenten
Thought
BY WILLIAM E. GILROY, ID. d.
Editor OF The C0nGrcxationalist)

The note Of sorrow and suffering
Is inevitably associated with the Len
ten season. The agony Of our Mas
ter in the Garden. and the crucifixion
on the Cross, are as indelibly fixed
with this season as is the climax of
the Resurrection and the conscious
ness Of the new life in Christ.
Is there any point at which the love
and sacrifice of Jesus more closely
touches our lives than at this point
Of suffering and sorrow? I suppose
1t might be said that the one crucial
place where the life and work Of
Jesus most deeply affect the life and
work of man is in the matter of sin
and salvation from sin.
But many people who have never
felt any real sense of conviction Of
sin have a very real consciousness Of
their troubles and sorrows. Some
times. in fact. the sense of sin de-
velops most strongly out of heart
searchings due to an experience of
suffering, in which one is often led
to see many things in life according
to very different scale of values.
At any rate, we cannot go far In
life until reality brings us in contact
with suffering. No philosophy, or
practice, Of life that leaves sorrow and
suffering out of the account is likely
to be either satisfactory or workable.
We mislead ourselves until we read
just the values of life in relation to
the deeper human experiences of trial,
pain, and disappointment.
1t Is just here that Jesus helps
lis not only to bear our burdens but
to a new estimate Of the values of
life. It is through Him that we dis
cover even in suffering q new mean
ing and some possible place in the
divine economy that leads men from
brutehood to sainthood.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Baby Won't Drink Water
