"No," he acquiesced, "but them that don't, feel like It. Or maybe they can't get away."' "Why can't they?" "A man can have a lotta reasons." The girl was silent. The night was still but for the sound of an accordian that floated to them from a distance. Together they listened. Bill staring up at his sky, Trina ttaring at--nothing. "BlTir mc ^.^yjetly^jvou like babies; don't you?" _ Her jpnan sat abruptly up, looking at her queerly. "What's the difference if I like 'em or not?"

"I told you my trademark, didn't I? 'Subject to change without notice."" "I know," she said puzxledly "But I've arranged everything--even passage on the boat for you." "I'm sorry, but I can't go with you." She begged him to tell her what was wrong, why he had suddenly changed his mind. Naturally reti cent, he refused to reveal what his reasons were.

By LEONARD A. BARR1 Tbere is a good deal of self-pity in' the world which plays havoc with the psychic centers. Self-pity destroys initiative, self-control and ambition. The false notion, entertained by some persons, that the world owes them a living, Is both dangerout and pernicious. Some of our college jjradhates have the idea that a job should be furnished them as one of their Ina l i e n a b l e r i g h t s . They forget that a person, regardless of his culture, is not entitled to a reward beyond liis capacity to earn it. We are emerging from the worst depression In the history of our country. Many who were not able td wefither tne storm sought refuge in self-pity, which in some cases led to self-destruction. Self-pity always seeks to place the blame on some other person or condition, and not upon one's own judgment. When a person builds a house he should remember that storms blow hard and fire destroys. If he be a wise builder he will take precautions and have lightning rods placed on the roof of his house and will seek protection against fire and storms through adequate Insurance. If he does this he will be secured against the ravages of the elements, If he fails so to do, whose fault is it if the elements play havoc with his building? He certainly cannot Justly place the blame upon anybody but himself. A storm In the economic world struck hard upon the financial structures many persons set up. Proper protection in some cases speeded recovery; where this protection was absent the inevitable was the result. No house built upon sand can withstand the havoc of storms. While self-pity dominates the minds of some^ persons, the contrary attitude Is discovered In other experiences. A man who suffered a very heavy loss financially, remarked that perhaps it was worth it, because he discovered the value of his own health, and who his friends were. That man had something left to build on. When the finer resources of the mind and soul are burned out by worry and self-pity, nothing remains upon which another structure can be built. The only enduring substance . upon which any permanent .recovery Is possible lies within. SO. Western Newspaper Union.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCHES "Man" was the subject of the Treason- Sermon in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, on Sunday, September 9. • The. Qoldfn Text was, "As many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God" (Romans 8:14). Among the citations which comprised the Lesson-Sermon was the following from the Bible: "Jesus answered and said unto him, Veriljr,. -verily, I say unto thee, Except, a man be tarn again, he cannot seethe klngddm of God. That which Is born ot the flesh is flesh ; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit" (John 3:3,6). The Lesson-Sermon also Included the following passages from the Christian Science textbook,' "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddyr "Man's individuality is not material . . . The unreality of the claim that a mortal Is the true image of God is Illustrated by the opposite natures of Spirit and matter, Mind and body, for one is intelligence while the other Is non-lntelllgence. Is God a physical personality? Spirit Is not physical. The belief that a material body is man is a false conception of man" (p. 286). "NORTH WISTIRN*' CONTINUIS ITS Time flies.
