When the Mexicali ,4*1,*Is first be-

Germany. Finally, when the Lusitania

60 TO SOMAY SCHOOL
By ERNEST O SELLERS
Director ot Sunday School CnurM
Moody blhle InMltute
THE TESTIMONY OF PROMI-
NENT EDUCATORS.
A S ONE would naturally expact.
A there la the widest possible
range of testimony from leading
eduratora, college and university
presidents and pedagogical experts.
Some who look upon the wirlt only
from the technical aide and com-
pare it with secular education con-
demn the work most severely
while others, having equal experi-
ence and taking Into consideration
the handicaps under which it
works, commend in equally as
strong terms. Among such ts Pres-
ident M. L. Burton of Smith Col-
lege for Women. Professor Burton
still treasures a gold medal which,
as a boy, he received for five years
of perfect attendance at the Pil-
grim Congregational Sunday school
of Minneapolis. He says: “I have
no hesitancy In saying that the
Sunday school wee one of the
strongest of the Influences making
for character and integrity which
have been brought to bear upon
my'life. 1 wish It were possible
for me to convey fully my appre-
ciation of the service so faithfully
and lovingly bestowed upon me at
that time. Unquestionably the
Sunday school lies at the basis of
Christian character and democrat-
ic citizenship.” True and lasting
democracy and a genuine brother
hood of man is only possible as the
character of the citizen is trans
formed according to the Ideals of
the Teacher of Nazareth.
President Benjamin lde Wheeler
of the University of California says
in a letter of recent date: "Since
my freshman days at Brown In
1871 until quite recently I have
taught in the Sunday school. It
has been serviceable to me in many
ways. Of course much time and
effort Is wasted, but the overplus
of good in the form of associations
and spirit to those who have had
the good fortune to be regular at
tendants upon Sunday school
classes far outweighs any such
loss.” Professor Wheeler knows
the limitations and realizes the
weaknesses of this work, but still
Is aware of the contribution being
made and Is lending his aid and
counsel In solving these problems,
hence he Is one who has a right to
speak about the Sunday school, and
to whose opinion we should give
careful and respectful attention.

Sing a Sang of SixpsnM.
The Ixuulon Globe’s explanation of
the rime "Slug a Song of Slxjieuee" Ij:
“The four and twenty blackbirds rep-
resent tbe four and tweuty hours. Tbe
bottom of tbe pie Is tbe world. Tbe
top crust represents the sky. Tbe open-
ing of the pie Is tho dawn of the day,
when tbe birds begin to sing, and
surely such a sight Is At for a king.
The king i.i bis counting bouse count-
ing out bis money Is the suu. The
money the kiug Is counting represents
tbe golden sunshine. The queen, who
sits in tbe parlor. Is tbe moon. The
honey she is eating is the moonlight.
The industrious maid who is working
In the garden before the sun has risen
Is tbe duy dawn, and the clothes she
hangs out are clouds. The bird that
so tragically ends the song by nipping
off her nose is the hour of sunset.”
England's Coldest Days.
In his diary for March, 1658. John
Evelyn records that the weather had
been “tbe severest that any man alive
had known In England. The crows'
feet were frozen to tbelr prey. Islands
of Ice inclosed both fish and fowl froz-
en, and some persons In their boats."

POULTRY SHOW IT STITT FUR
W. H. Stratton, secretary of the
Fair Association, recently announced
that, in keeping with the increased
value of Southwestern poultry pro-
ductions, the State Fair of Texat
would materially increase the pre-
miums offered annually for poultry
exhibits, and this announcement is
followed by the statement that a di-
vision has Seen created for pigeons,
and that a special building is being
constructed to house the exhibits ir
this new class. Better facilities havf
likewise b'»n provided for the ex-
hibits of docks, and a large duck pond
is now in bourse of construction.
In the main section of the poultry
division inr-cased .space has been al-
lotted for the exhibits of all standard
and utility breeds, and present indi
cations are that enrh breed will havf
a large following. Numerous requests
for entry blanks have been received
from the premier poultry fancier* oT
the Southwest, and there is every
reason to believe that the best and
biggest poultry show ever seen in th«
South will be a part of the 1916 Statt
Fair of Texas.
Entries i- the poultry department
will close Wednesday. October 11
and poultr- fanciers,who contemplati
making an exhibit at the Fair should
send in tl. *ir entries promptly.
No Change of Plan.
“And after they had uiurried In haste
I suppose they repented at leisure."
“No; they were perfectly consistent
They repented In haste also."—Rich-
