The beneficial effects of this contribution have been of two kinds; first ~ the direct evils of war and preparation for war have diminished. and the influence of the spirit of war has diminished. In the latter part of the Commonwealth period the most serious question was What was to be done with the Quakers. When two women arrived in Boston, via Barbadoes, as a vanguard of the Quaker missionary army, the colonial authorities were horrified and sent them back to Barbadoes.
It is not a cure for all political ills, for the people of the United States today feel its dangers. It is like free will to the individual—the only atmosphere in which virtue can grow, but an atmosphere in which sin can also flourish. Nothing is more astonishing than the state of mind of the working-class American worker. but he realizes that he can climb to the top of the ladder; and a European mechanic. a farmer or merchant who knows that it will be very difficult for him to rise above his own class and is therefore content with his inheritance.
All the most civilized nations of the earth have adopted the final appeal for male suffrage, or are approaching its adoption by rapid stages.

Lem he tries all kinds of ways to see her, but he can't watch the Squire's eye and the city feller's. It seems that the Squire bade him not to let him see him again in sight of his house. I can tell you it didn't take long for the Squire and his people to leave the house to where Lem was.
Lem, he tells how he waz, so they carry him to ter Squire's. 34;Of course it's wonderful how Lem got on after that, but it wasn't long ago that he could sit down and take a bitter Squire's bounty. The Squire seemed to be torturing him a little, and offered to take him home if he felt well enough.
The owner got his buggy fixed for him and Lem drove all by himself and I've heard he also whistled most of the way.

34;My brooch is gone," cried Aunt Drusilla, "go after him, boys, get jumped through the parlor window and he's got my diamond brooch!, I didn't wait to hear more, but was in the front yard in less. time than it takes to tell it. At first I was at a loss as to what to do next, so I groped my way back to the road. I said nothing, only that I chased the burglar to the fence and shot him three times.
When we got to the cornfield we thought we would find the burglar's tracks clear enough, but to my surprise and annoyance the cow's tracks and the bare feet led straight into the cornfield. I was determined to discover this mystery, so we followed the path through the corn. During the night it had been slammed shut, breaking the glass and frightening Aunt Drusilla, who was growing tired.
I think my conscience would trouble me if I didn't ease your mind by adding that when Grandma was cleaning the house the following spring, the diamond pin fell through a small crack in the mattress.
Then she began to deal with the dining room, placing fresh linen on the table and setting it. She has to go to her room and put on one of her most beautiful dresses, the one that Fred loved to see her wearing. Everything went well and Fred s chun1 thoroughly enjoyed the excellent dinner, thinking of course that she must have bad years of practice.
Nellie had served them for salad and waffles, and sat down awkwardly when Fred, who was the first to taste it, threw up his hands in astonishment and exclaimed, "What have you put in that?" Thinking she would cry. , they followed and comforted her, so that soon she smiled with the others.
Often her husband says something about salad and dressing; but she usually replies with the old saying.

Captain Herbert, the referee, and the great angula1' captain of the visiting team stood apart from the rest of the crowd. After a series of brilliant finishing runs, the Olympia boys lost the ball when Joy failed to win through the right tackle. But success for the visitors could not be prevented, and after one "pile-up" it was found that the ball was over the line.
With the favorable wind the goal was easily kicked and the score was 6-5 in Western's favour. Then the local rooters gave a loyal cheer and the team, inspired by the hope the turn of events gave them. Olympia again worked the ball to the twenty-yard line and signaled on third down for a field goal.
Only three minutes remained to play and the score remained 9 to 6 in favor of Olympia.

During these exciting periods, the humanists, fearing that Luther, with his bold and daring stand against the false doctrines and ceremonies of the church, would fail them all, withdrew their support from the Reformer. Now we have many denominations, different in small points that are few, but united in relation to the great teachings of Jesus Christ. However, during the last three centuries, the most perfect interpretations of the scriptures and truth, made through the progress of Theology, as it is a growing science, have been held by men.
Thousands of people today are held captive to the belief that the absolute acceptance of the creation story in relation to the human race and its early history, as given in the Bible and conceived by fictional Jewish scribes, constitutes true religion. This belief today is blinding the eyes of the common world to the true, uplifting and ennobling teachings of Christ. The humanists of our day, the truly educated teachers and ministers, know this to be so, yet they are relying on education to come slowly to the masses and raise them to a realization of the truth instead of they boldly present it to men like Luther. made his message.
Again thousands are in captivity to the belief that there is a great gulf between religion and such sciences as geology, evolution, and the like, where the true scholar sees them as not at all antagonistic.
Technique and good craftsmanship are necessary and must be acquired before one can execute a truly great work of art, but they should not become an end in themselves. They are essential and useful only insofar as they provide a smoother channel for the outflow of the deeper feelings of a man's soul. The artists (if we call them that) who have no real depth of soul become enamored with solving technical problems, and work on language for language's sake, or on image for image's sake. and instead of allowing their souls to be stretched and enlarged by their art, they keep them suppressed or neglected behind their work.
The greatest masters of art always come from men whose souls were their greatest selves—those who struggled the hardest, and suffered the most, and felt the deepest.
