INSPIRED by William denniups Hrynn. n fighting Irishman named
Alfred WntteiMn McCunn, has writ ton book, entitled "God.
Or Gorilla."
It is Mr. McCann's contention that all people who believe iu tho
Darwinian theory of evolution, on n't worship Uod, bul must worship
the Gorilla. ,
This seems rather hard on the evolutionists. Ex-President Kliot
of Harvard, for example, is au evolutionist and lo a Unitarian.
Would Mr, McCauu foree this diistintruished scholar to nbnudon his
pew at Dr. Crothcr's church for a bench in the Host on Zoo!
President Kliot may he wrong. So may nil the other evolutionists.
Pnt how can Mr. MeCnnn or W. .1, Pryan, of anyone else assume au
thority to prove it Kvolution is -merely a scientific theory, mean
r.ble of Actual substantiation.
Mr. MeOaim's idea of God is also a theory. It can't be proved.
It rests upon faith.
."Why this sudden effort to 'dogmatize; to declare Mr. Pryan's
theological conception right and all other conceptions wrong t Isn't
the idea of Gotl a large enough concept ion to go around. We think
it should be. .
..-
Some people find knowledge and Divinity incompatible. Put there
lire others who find that the more they learn of material things, the
more convinced they are of a divine element. A sunset over the west
ern sea inspires them no less, ben use their intelligence informs them
it is merely composed of a certain combination of hydrogen and oxy
gen netiug as ri prism before the rays of a huge molten mass, called
the Sim. There is a mysterious spiritual element everywhere, which
transcends nil their scientific data, which instead of destroying
their faith, merely rationalizes it.
It would be foolish of them to insist that Messers McCann and
Pryan, as well ns King Popo. the Hottentot chief of Pygmyland. look
at the world and God ns they look at them. So it is equally foolish
for the anti-cvolutionists to insist upon everyone accepting- their pre
cise theories or be denied the spiritual satisfaction that their own
belief trives them.
4
Why not be a trifle tolerant! No faith that makes n man strive
to be n better citizen can be a bad faith. Why not base, theological
judgments upon results, as we do in other departments of human
activity. It would save a lot of wasted euergy, needless friction and
valuable time. , .

PUTTING 1 IN CIRCULATION
(J. J. Taylor, in the Dallas Morning

Already we have been to Sulphur

now, Paris. An hour from now I shall j

good enough to take me in his car and
Bhow me all of the city he thought
proper for me to see, Including the
Greenville Banner office. It is a fine
town, with lots of paving alreaJy spud
ded in. Mr. Cantrell took me for an
incidental call upon his father, pr.
Will - Cantrell, noted surgeon, who
keeps a hospital. As soon as Intro
ductions were over in the reception
room, I said to Dr. Cantrell, "Yours is
a profession, sir, whose nobility is no
less distinguished than my own. for
you, doctor, heal the sick, and I, iq rny
capacity of Journalist, refresh the
souls of men."
- Immediately my host gave me a
keen, searching clanrn nnd liocnn talk.

in which the human noodle comes otit 'j
of plumb and needs the firm but kind

ing the brain to function. . U was then
that I discovered, to my dismay, that
the dear doctor mistook me for a
"head case." He thought-1 had come
to have my gears meshed. It was
quite a while before I could convince
him that there were no cogs stripped
from my flywheel.

FAREWELL, WINTER,'
EVER TRY ITT
(Coos Bay Times)
Roy Landrith was a genial host
at a stag party, given at his home
on Wcdnesdny ..evening. Cards
were an engrossing divernlon, the
'players smoking meanwhile.
Next week there will kbe an 'influx
of candidates, nil pure like driven snow
and bilking powder. -
Some smiling acres, that refused to
plow thenmelves, are now being up
turned, by maia strength.' '"
IT HAS PEEX a weary season, this old winter that departs.
Spring arrives, and with good reason we liave gladness in our
hearts. Always when the winter's aging wu grow weary of its
curves, weary of its futile raging, and its presence jars our
nerves. When the wind, in nook and cranny, howls through
dark and bitter hours, how we yearn for fGentle Annie, with
her apron full of flowers! When the winti r frst comes chas
ing, we pretend we like, its play "Ah, this cold," we say, "is
bracing, it is good for any jay; it is fine to ftieo the blizzard, and
it makes us young again; heat may snit Ihej elammy lizard, cold
is for the sons of men." For a week we smite nnd chortle as we
peg through drifted snow; but our mirth is jrail. nnd. mortal, and
a fortnight lays it low. Oh, the night win.l is uncanny, 'and it
has a ghostly sound, and' we yearn for Ciontlej Annie with a yearn
Jug most profound. Snow wijl do for crazed explorers, who
would find sopic sort of pole, but the spring! winds arc restorers
of the weary human soul. And I nit here wjith my granny, arm
in arm we twain abide, and we root for Gentle Annie, gladly lct
ting winter slide.
