MASONS DISCUSS IDEA
OF BEING BIG BROTHERS
Spokane, Wash.. Jun IT. Member
Of the. Masonic order throughout the
state are discussing the suggestion by
Jeremiah Neterer of Bellingham, In
hi annual address as grand maater at
the recent fifty-fourth session of th
grand lodge of Washington In Spokane,
that each Maaon attract the confidence
Of a boy and guide him In ways of
right It is expected that most of the
175 lodges In the state, with K.600
member enrolled, will adopt the plan
before the year ia ended.
"I believe that If uch tnovement
were- launched by the Maaona In thl
Jurisdiction," Judge Neterer said, "In
tea, would be th Interest and great
'would be the - result and pleasure In
such Constructive work la, real charac
ter building. . ,
, There exist a necessity for whole
some' Influence and fraternal coopera
tion In behalf of boys. The course of
conduct and treatment of many boy
at home and by th public should be
changed. Worthy example should b
presented and wholesome sentiment cre
ated. ... You - can initiate-a plan which
will properly direct and oonaerve the
energy and ambition of the boy.
"The highest authorities are agreed
that nothing In the. world go shapes a
boy's soul and character aa quiet talk
with grown men about thlAgs they live
for and amidst.' In this way the boy
Is aroused to think and do the very best
there is In him.
"Make a companion of some boy, be
a big brother to him and have him visit
you; go to his home after the labor of
the day has-cloned and. .show him he
is a part of the world and that some one
Is Interested In his welfare; direct his
mind in a wholesome course, place de
signs for his Improvement upon the
trestle-board of life; and thus "bring
hi acts within the extended points of
the compass and yourself nearer the
throne of th eternal God."

New TorH, June 17. If you decided
to be a hermit would you pick out a

Impossible to live the life of a her

You can do It right In the Broadway
Central hotel. At least Manuel Mar

done so done so for 30 year. He Is
a little old Spaniard of 81 yeara, still
preserving much of ttia fastidiousness
of a Spanish grandee. The only per
son he ever received In hla rooms, high
up In the hotel, In the SO years that
he ha been there are a nephew and a
reporter.
For a whole year he has been known
not to quit his room and In all tha
years that he has kept his strange
abode In the hotel he has wandered bei
yond Its portals but two or three times
and then for a moment only.

AH this sounds very strange, but
the reason for Martinet' withdrawal
from the world Is stranger still., He
Is an atheist and wants to get away
from the religious atmosphere of the
world. As a little boy he read the
works of Voltaire, Rousseau, Plato and
Aristotle and become filled with their
materialism. He decided to see the
world.
"I went to Austria, to Germany,
Franca, Russia, England and to. Rome,"
he said. "And everywhere I found the
people blindly ruled and oppressed by
religion. I visited the Holy Land of
the New and Old Testament. I grew
no more friendly toward religion. I
became an atheist And I tried to es
cape from religious atmosphere In
America In Mexico, Canada, Cuba. It
was ' the same. I became disgusted
with the childishness of the faith and
beliefs and superstitions I found In
men.
