Statistics show that only a very few ever learn the les

Many contributing reasons. the Provident society adj

Are the Old Hymns Any Good?
Grand Forks Herald)

Some church dtgnttary has been going over the old
hymns, and. taking them as they run. he finds them
pretty worthless. Their sentiment, he finds. is quite in
consistent with the age. Mentioning several by name,
all OF them old and familiar, he says that no one in this
generation would feel the sentiment expressed in their
lines or would express himself in that way. He wants
modern hymns which are more in accordance with the
facts Of life.
II hymns are to be judged by the rules of science. and
logic. and mechanica. probably the gentleman is right.
There are few hymns that would stand up under the
strict scrutiny Of . purely materialistic science. Much
OF their theology Is out Of date, and the figures which
they use are contrary to our practical experience.
TINS Is true also OF most literature, except that Of q
purely technical kind. Our poets and our great writer's
OF imaginative prose have been singularly free from the
limitations OF ascertained fact. They have taken the
wings OF the morning and flown to the uttermost parts
OF the earth. In some curious way they have succeeded
IN carrying the rest Of US with them. We have gone
with them into all sorts Of impossible places and seen
and heard all sorts Of impossible things, and for some
reason we have returned rested and refreshed. We know.
as q matter Of fact. that sheley's skylark Is only a bird,
beating the air with its wings and making sounds which
may be analysed and classified, like other sounds. But
the poets Joyous imagery carries our spirits with his
into the heights, and as we soar with him and his bird
see little bits Of the universe In q new light. and some
how We feel better for It. We know that Shakespeare was
inaccurate when he wrote about the lark singing at
heavens gate, and about day standing tiptoe on the
top. but those thoughts, expressed as they
have been. have inspired and strengthened. And some

Bridegroom Relief

Chicago's Saving Autocracy

The salvation Of Chicago has been solved. It is Il

ment to submit to and reminds one Of Abraham Lincolni
declaration that no man Is lit to impose his rule on an.
other-he meant dictatorially or snobbishly-it must BIZ
remembered, however, that the yoke Of Spain and thu
chains Of Italy, while painful and chatting. also have
been efficient in their results. Spain has come out Of
its st. vMus dance of revolt. Italy has cast out thu
infection of industrial socialism that used to keep It in a
permanent ferment Of strikes and riots.
II this CALLING subjugation which has been inflicted
on Spain and Italy can also produce wholesome results,
how much more should that which is proposed for the
bankrupt Windy city. For there the dictatorship pro-
posed is one of the citizens of the city organized into
q group and Offering to ransom their town by supply
ing money to meet its operating obligations. There is
but ono string to their offer Of $50, 00.OOO-and that is
that the money is to be spent as they dictate. Chicagos
city council by unanimous vote has accepted both the
money and the dictation of the rescuing group, headed
by Silas H. Strawn.
That is the group is willing to assist its city out of the
humiliation to which Big Bill Thompson's rackcteer rule
has degraded It, but the donors of the fund are not will
ing to finance a continuance CT the saturnalia of po-
litical viciousness which the ~stockyards potcntate Of
bluff and initiation has made the net result of his admin
as mayor.
Both in its dilemma and in the submission of the city
council to the s~alvaging crew. Chicago exhibits an
example Of the need o. this dictatorship. The city by
the lake is in such a state Of collapse that actual an
archy would not be surprising If 1t raised its head some
day. With police and firemen being paid in what, in
effect, are mere scraps of paper, how can one expect

world conducting itself virtually as it pleases?
In 1871 Chicago suffered a vast fire. But materially
t was a fire of publication, out of the ashes of which
greater and still developing Colossus of the West came
