ND though I have all faith, so that 1 could remove moun tains," I'aul said to the Corinthians I used think about this removing of mountains a good deal when I wa a child and I was finally convinced that it couldn't be done, but I wa wrong. I took it all literally then, hut there are other mountains which faith fun remove which are quite as high and impassable as those reared by earthquakes or formed by erosion DtiiJ which stop our progress as completely " There are mountains of discourage nient. mountains of difficulty, rooun tnlns of temptation and sorrow which faith In ourselves, faith in other men. or faith In higher and unseen things can make as easy of traversing as n paved highway. Garver has brains, an excellent pre llminary training and a healthy bod) but he Is doing badly. He distrusts himself and his ability, he is eusih discouraged, and will admit without argument that he Is going to fail. H has no self-contldence, no faith in him self. If someone could get him to stand solidly upon his feet, to believe sincerely In his own power of accom plishment, to develop personal faith his business and Intellectual salva tion would he assured. Striken) an Is one of the most 1 ril Hnnt young fellows with whom I am acquainted. He Is handsome physl cally; In college he was among the best In his class, but ns a professional man he is neither happy nor success ful. He has faith in himself, but little or none In anybody or anything else. He Is cynical and supercritical of people, and he trusts very few. lie laughs at religion and considers those who find help and comfort In Its teachings weakly and superstitious His own character is guided largely by expedient rather than, principle He has nothing higher than his own selfish Interests to guide him or hold him in the path of rectitude. He Is. of course, discreet, for he has no de sire to come under the ban either of the law or of puhllc opinion, but whatever can be done sub rosa is In his ndnd legitimate. He has hl ups and downs, he has his periods of ela tion followed by the deepest depres sion, he Is pretty largely what the people are with whom he associate People do not believe In him becausi he does not believe In people. Tln. do not trust him; they do not hftafl him their business. His . hnrncter h a eak character because It Is cot founded upon any definite moral 01 religious principles. He has no fllitli In man; he has no belief In Cod. The "evidence of things not seen" make no appeal to him. He hus virtuull failed. But to him who has faith In himself In his fellow men and In the Cr aor of all things, the mountains are quite likely to disappear. Written for the Anti-Gun Club by Mrs. F. B. Pennock Here's an ode to the China, that grim seed of hate, 'Twixt t lie farm and the gun club, the Devil's own mate. How the hunters adore him, with all of his sin; But the weary old "Hayseed," loges his grin, As he strolls down the trail where the China has been. Alas for the melons he hoed with sucn care, For the law armored china has beaion him there. He tightens his belt, and strolls on to me corn, Which lie tilled with high hopes in tue young dewy morn. But here to the china has finished the job ; And left for the farmer the stark nak ed cob. He ruined the grapes and the straw berries too. Of what he has missed, not one thing meets our view. . He has scratched up the turnips, and bit all tne spuds, Pecked into the squashes, and then mussed the duds, Which lie loaned to the scare-crow, to keep him at bay. The duds we shall need on our cold "rainy day.". We bubble and simmer down under the vest, For we know we're the goat as has long been confessed. We give him our gardens, and give ! him our fruit. And fat him up fine for the nimrods to shoot. And if a stray bullet should slaughter a cow, Tis a small thing to "holler about" anyhow. The game wardens warn us of prison and line, If we should dare on his carcass to dine. But we gaze on the wrecks of our la bors and pains, W ith grim satisfaction, we munch the remains. And should the game lovers once venture our way, We have all clubbed together to see that they stay. On the safe public highwoy, nor ven ture to pass, Over one tiny blade of "old tassels" grass. We too can get warrents, and trespas sers fine, And we don't have to post every fence with a sign. The peace loving farmer is forced to tlie fray, For the china must go, if the farmer should stay. He looks on the flag that unfurls to the breeze. And then on the game warden, skulk ing at ease, In the cool restful shade of his hand planted trees. He thinks of vain toil in the swelter ing sun. He thinks of the license he pays on his gun. He mops off his forehead, and mur murs by heck, It's time to take that D-Mn law by the neck. So now Mr. Warden, come if you dare, ; We will show you a long list of men who declare, That the season will open when e're this old sinner, 1 Drops down in our garden to pilfer a dinner. And also the court room will open to those, Who trespass upon us to succor our foes. : We will test out the power of these laws of the great, To confiscate our farms to grow game for the state. ; Or to be more exact, as the trouth stands to date, To grow game for the Gun Clubs In the name of the state. And this Is no bluff, but a bonified warning, : We'll arrest you as sure as the dawn of the morning. We'll not take the trouble to warn you with signs, But will pinch every man who steps over our lines.
