A few years back the Meth

make peace with the Southern

Freedom Trainl Americas real,
treasures are on 1.-THE original
documents of her greatest char
tiers of freedom. Without them
America is but a geographical
eXpression-a part of the earth'S
surface-plains and mountains
and deserts, rverS and lakes

precious documentS-th Declar-
alton of independence, the Con-

America is a towering and in

free institutions and human
rights-a home for men of every
race, creed, and national origin.
Many an American, boarding
Freedom Train, will see for the
first time the documents of our
heritage. These, they will say
to themselves, felt the touch of
George Washington'S hands. Here
Benjamin Franklin signed his
name. These words - the very
handwriting - are Jefferson's,
the high thoughts and deep feel
ingS of his soul. Here is what
the brave men who founded
America believed-in their own
words-just as they wrote it
down.
"All men are created equal"
They said that. All men are EN-
dowed by their Creators with
certain and inalienable rights"
They believed that-not Just for
their own day and generation but
for all future days and gener-
atoms too. They were speaking
about truths-things that don't
change. 1--WE hold these truths"
they said. There it is on Free

Observations
IHzGEEEEH HHRE aRaEEEG-

The season seems to be swing
ing into a good, lively pace,
which is as it should be. In mans
present state of evolution,
wholesome recreation and enter
tainment are really essential to
his happiness, and we should all
be glad to indulge in such inter-
course. Music is one of the main
items of entertainment and the
concert, where many INDUCED
the pleasure of performing to
their mutual friends, has been
relegated to oblivion in favor of
the recital, where the performer
gets up and exhibits his knowl-
edge to all who will listen. Keep
you ear to the ground. The old
fashioned concerts are on the
way back, and believe you will
have an opportunity to enjoy
some of them this season. When
I say enjoy, I don't mean just
listen. 7 mean take part your
self. Keep your eye on this col
umn for further particulars.
Would like to have a chance
to participate in that chorus
which Lorenzo Greene is run
ming for the Revivals, at Old
Charles Street. He is a capable
musician, and I know all partici-
pants will enjoy the singing
Then, as for the preaching, DR..
Scott comes from Roanoke, Va,
and I have great faith in preach
ers from Roanoke. Better stop
