• The late Dr. H. I- Thomas, the ,translator for the state department at iWashincton. was ate ays a foe to warfare. litis noted philologist believed firmly that warfare and livUUatiOB were incompatib! and that one would

destroy the other.

Dr. Thomas liked to get hold of stonesHbat relleoted upon militarism. Sach atories, he slid, were hopeful signs of the time*. They pointed toward the final abo'utioo of armies. He often told the story of a recruit named Simpson Andrews. . . '•Siropaoo, ,, he woold say, "•joined the army and learned to drill. One day he took part in a sham battle. He heard the general say before the battle started: •Rvexything is to be done the same ns in actual wadfare; and no sooner was -th- firpC wank cartridge fired than Siinoapn dropped hit

The road which he has since made so widely known was at that timr considered the-slowest in the ctrantrv. Mr. Hill listened ^ood n * , ‘ uredlv to the fun that was naturally poked at his road, and worked the

birder to improve it.

Meeting Mr. Hill one day in the street In St. Paul. "Diamond loe Reynolds, of Upper River steamboat

fat)pe, said:

•Mira. I'll match one of my steamboats against one.of your trams in a

fair race for fjoo u side."

'•Well. 1 don't know." hesitated Mr. HHI "some of your boats are pretty fast." t , ^Coore, I'll race you up stream.

"Oh. thtmd«t"’ returned Mr. HtH ia « disgusted tone; "if you're going to stick to the river then you might a* well drop the notion of a race. I thought you meant you'd bring youi boot out on llie prairie alongside the track and give me some show."

Philosophy.

Real principle lies in what we feel, not h> what we say or think about. If nor for the nigh: we would never know or appreciate the day. ••Take courage" are two very simple words, but in meaning they «*> cirtfe the world. In the silent inner realm of the >n \ dividual soul our , life is undersicjjr and directed to its destiny. As the rose absorbs its beauty and fragrance Irom the sunlight, a man absorbs the b!e s *'hgs of lile living tu the light of a loving heart. If not for the ever recurring imoujse? of hope, life would not be worth thr struggle, for in each heart is a castlr within whose silent walls arc oui .ideaIs and images that we bow before and worship.
