Lured On

Whatever his condition, whether
to be noble or evil, he is lured on.
Man has divided mankind into three
classes: l. Without ideals; mega
lively good individuals, unwilling to
put forward any special effort to
improve their lot. They do not
care what has been or may be. In
the midst of care, what has been
or may be does not concern them.
In the midst of that condition, they
will live and die. Good has no
particular attraction for them. You
do not belong to this class of per-
sons.

Will Relax
Great Peroration

Do not regard your ideal as
drudgery. Men of constant ideals
have inspired the world. DR..
Richmond planet. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1883-1938, 1929-09-07
Intermittent Type

Class 2 are those of intermittent
ideals. The individual looks out to
the accomplishment of his ideal. He
seems able to cast off the evils of
yesterday. They call him to the
day of high attainment. He pic
lures his condition. He specified
the requirements. Ideals come in
thick and fast and seek a lodge
ment. When it is over, the in
dividual drops to the lower level.
In this he will find his greatest
fault.
Will Relax
Before the task is done his ideals
shine and before they have been
realized he will relax. Glass 3
consists of those of the constant
ideal, that have the power of a
magnet for iron. An ideal is like
magnet, constant and inducing
the soul into the real life you are
living and spreading in the COM
munity. This class is making pos
sible all ventures. The National
Ideal is making this fact. Human
flesh is weak and often fails TO
reach the point being sought. 1t
makes even the common paths OF
life sublime.

DOUBLE Staying
BATTLES PROBERS
Former Roomer of Woman Is
straightforward Found
Dead With Her.
ev the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
KANSAS CITY, November 6.-Wad-
ing through a maze of clues which
pointed first to murder and suicide and
then to a double Staying, Kansas au-
thorities today sought a former roomer
in the home of Mrs. Minnie E. Hare
so, in connection with the fatal shoot
ing of the woman and her boarder
Jesse j. Barnwell, IS.
Bodies of the two were found yes
terday in Mrs. Hare's home, in Mer-
RAM, Kans., near here. Sheriff's off,
GERS said they had been dead about
four days.
Mrs. Hare's body, with bullet holes in
the heart and neck was found on the
kitchen floor. In the dining room lay
Banwell's body, a high-caliber rife
beside him. He had died from a bull
let wound in the abdomen.
The house had been ransacked and a
diamond ring valued at $3.50 was miss
ing but pinned in the womans cloth
ing was $3,765 in currency.
The first theory of officers, that Barn
we'll shot Mrs. Hare and then killed
himself, was followed by clues tending
to show the woman was slain for her
property and money and BarnWell MUIR
dered to conceal the motive. The lat
ter belief was sustained by reports that
Mrs. Hare had decided her home, valued
at $4,000, to former boarder to pre-
vent is seizure in litigation. Further
investigation revealed she had deposit
ed $4,000 to the mans account in a
Kansas City, Kans., bank last May
Neighbors said Mrs Hare and Barn
well had disagreed over diamond ring
he gave her.

IN OUR CHURCH

We wearied of our former pastor, who
was a tiresome sort of man, and didn't
seem to be the master OF any modern,
helpful plan. He talked too much Of
ancient doings, too much of Jonah ana
the whale, and we remarked, with sad
beshrewings, that all his themes we've
old and stale. He'd preach about the
Ark with vigor, of Daniel in the lions
den; I'VE want a man with vision
bigger" we said, who'll stir the souls
of men. We care no boot for bygone
ages although their records are sublime;
the pastor who would earn his wages
must come down to- the present time"
And SO we fired this quiet preacher,
whose sermons had no force or weight,
and we engaged the Reverend Screech-
er, pastor strictly up to date. He has
a voice that shakes the ceiling, a voice
tremendous, loud and deep. and when
on Sunday he is spelling fellow has no
chance to sleep. Our village is nest
towns, and few of us will turn out WIN
ners when we apply for harps and
crowns. He takes hand in every
wrangle that may disturb our little grad
and keeps our throbbing nerves a-jangle,
accusing us OF actions bad. He roaSts
our girls for wearing dresses much
shorter than their mothers toys, and
in his anger he confesses our boys are
going to the dogs. He says our schools
are full of scholars who carry TASKS of
rye and gin, their fathers chase for
tainted dollars and wallow in the
sloughs of sin. He has our village all
appended, there's hatred now on every
hand, and we agree it will be splendid
when he can have him safely canned.
We're yearning for the former pastor,
we'd like to see him back again, to
preach about the gentle Master, and
Daniel in the lions den.

What sort of a chap is the flying
cadet who goes into the Army Ali

A study of the physical character

the Army Air Corps, as a means of en-
abling the quartermaster department
to anticipate uniform sizes, makes it
possible to visualize the average cadet.
He is slim, erect young man, weigh
ing about $50 pounds, and is feet 8
inches tall. He is of the. athletic type,
about % years old and has college
education. OF 500 cadets examined
there were but four of the minimum
height, 81 inches. They ranged up to
n inches, with the average at 69.003
inches. The greater number of cadets
were of the average height, and more
cadets were in the average weight class
than any other.
The average waist measure is 80
inches, and the average chest measure
ment, chest fully debated, is 1873 inches.
