The CLERGY SPEAK

Today in our world we don't
find a great many people who are
really concerned about possessing
godly righteousness. It is no little
wonder that Christ promised
blessings to those who do seek to
be righteous.
The people of our present world
do have hungerings and yearnings
-. but of a decided worldly
character. Many leaders and rul-
ers today have a dangerous hun
ger after power -. it is that
hunger which brings strife and
chaos and war into our life.
Others have a hunger after
wealth and possessions . the
earthly treasures that choke out
what spiritual life may be in us.
Still others hunger and thirst
after pleasures and comforts
which at best are temporary, and
which certainly can lead us from
the original purpose for which we
were created.
Because these same hungers
were in the hearts of men in
Christ'S day, He was lead to say,
Blessed are they who hunger and
thirst after righteousness, for they
shall be satisfied" If we were to
desire the righteousness of God
as much as we desire the vain Dur
suits OF life, we should indeed be
blessed. And more than that, we
should be truly satisfied. Whereas
the treasures of this life can af-
ford only temporary satisfaction,
the blessings that God gives to
us are an eternal satisfaction.
Therefore DO not lay up for
yourselves treasures in heaven
for where your treasure is,
there will your heart be also"

PILGRIMAGE TO D. C.

PILGRIMAGE TO C.
NEVER WITHIN the last thirty wears has a nilorimaue
to Washington carried SO much significance. The Councilmen
now in Washington must do everything they can to convince
official Washington that the time is now; that unless steps are
taken to ease the economic crisis the future will be dark and
grim indeed. This must be the deep conviction of the men
who represents the Islands. All lighter things must take a
second place. Personal considerations must be completely out.
This is it.
THE PLAIN, COLD, unaduIterated truth a bout the
whole matter is that unless Congress takes the right attitude
towards these Islands they will find themselves in a perfect
dilemma. And when that point is reached drastic measures
are usually necessary for then the entire economic picture
will have to be recognized from the very bottom. Now is the
time to grasp things and head upward.
THE DELEGATION to Washington will ask for the re-
turn of the Internal Revenue Taxes on the expectation Of rum.
The group will discuss the overall picture, and include the
matter of a Resident Commissioner, and the proposed Or
ganic Act. This is quite an imposing agenda, to say nothing
of the man-sized job to cover properly and adequately all
aspects Of these several matters. With the experience and
knowledge, all of which are frst-hand, the delegation should
be very well prepared to lay cards on the table before Con
gresSmen. There is every confidence that the necessary pre-
paratory work has been done, and the groundwork laid. The
men to whom the delegation will speak are somewhat aware
of what is coming for they have heard these topics discussed
before, and no doubt have given answers to them. And it is
more likely that these same answers will again appear, but it
is for the delegation to make every effort to convince commit
tees, bureaus and leaders Of the extreme gravity Of the situa-
ton. Once this is done then a changed attitude will come and
with it the appropriate legislation.
ON WAY to Washington the delegation stopped in
New York and meetings were held with leaders concerned
with the problems, and tt 5 reported that there was satisfac-
tory understanding. With such a send-off, the Washington
task should become easier. All hearts and ears are tuned to
Washington, as the delegation has the fullest moral and poll
teal support of all back home.

We are indebted to Mr.. Ray Boil

copy of Hagerstown paper, dated
May 20, 1878, containing many items
Of much interest at that time. Here
are few items we noticed
This was under the heading 'Ex-
element in Funkstown": The ar
rival of the cheap goods of Thomas
B. Watts & Company, has created q
terrible excitement among the cit
liens of Funkstown, as he has lust
returned from the Northern and
Eastern Cities, with one of the best
and cheapest assortments of dry
goods of all kinds, groceries, such
as coffee, sugar, molasses and all
kinds of notions Call and see.
Other advertisements were as fol-
lows:
How in the name of common sense
can Knode sell that bright dry brown
sugar of his for 8, 10 and II cents?
Nobody knows but himself. Call to
see him for explanation. You will
find him at the old Artz stand. OBJ

Looking through the files of the
late Benny Beard, whose Horse and
Buggy Days column was a feature
of The Globe, ran across the fol
lowing column, which | believe is
well wArth publishing again, so here
it is:
Highly developed bus travel Is
one of the very interesting things
of these days.
If you want to get thrill, visit
the terminal of the Blue Ridge
Transportation Company on East
Antietam Street any day.
If you do this at certain times in
the morning and afternoon when
many buses leave, you will see what
/ mean.
We were bewildered by the many
announcements made on the loud
speaker as to where each bus was
going But the system is down to a
science and there is really no rea-
son why anyone should get on the
wrong bus.
This modern mode of travel re-
called to us the popular song of
years ago (and really still so (which
ran like this:
Put on your old gray bonnet
With the blue ribbon on it,
And we'll hitch old Dobin to the
shay,
Then through the fields of clover
We will drive down to Dover
On our golden wedding day"
Who does not remember with
pleasure that old song of Horse and
Buggy Days? But to get back to
the buses after this little bit of
reminiscing! Here are the calls you
will hear resounding through the
terminal, announcing the departure
of buses:

RENOMINATE
PRES. TUBMAN
OF LIBERIA

MONROVIA - (ANP) - The
True Wing party of Liberia met

The nomination came after a
week of intense political activity

True Wing party is tantamount
TO election in Liberia because it

party in the country. Liberia is a
