4 BROTHERHOOD
“I hare sliot ah alrowo’er the house
And hurt my brother" — Hamlet
c Since the time Cain seeking to
' arold responsibility for the blood of
Abel ‘ asked "Am I my brother’s
keeper 7’’ men hare been doing the
very thing described In the couplet
from Hamlet hurting hetr brethren
’ through reckless disregard of the
welfare of others
We are a Christian people nomin-
ally speaking fThatiS to say this
is a nation in 'which the Deity is
recognized by law- and otherwise
' and where the Christian religion is
prevalent American money sends
missionaries to the uttermost parts
of the earth to preach the doctrines
of the Christ — and they do ' con-
secrated men and women leaving
the comforts of homes for labcv
-among foreign v people often unwel-
3 come often paving to win their way
' Inch bjr Inch into the hearts of the
people
- The spirit of the real missionary
Is the spirit of true brotherhood—
' thaof seeking jtobrlng something
Of value Jto others '
t The Surprising thing however is
7 to find' that while this Is 'being
- done so ' many Americans who
should be better enlightened do not "
’ understand that they cannot build
happiness for themselves on the un-
: happiness ct others In many homes
where the Bible is known and re-
spected there is yet harbored the
-belief that the first duty of ‘man Is
to look out for piling up wealth or
a material nature and that it is
legitimate to take advantage of
others In acquiring money and prop-
erty ' v
If this were- not so there would
‘ not be so great a need for laws of
1 a regulatory nature If this were
i not yet a trait of character pre-
J valent Among'a great many Ameri-
cans there tonfdfnot be any neces-
j sity for law against usury against
child labor arid niany other abuses
- which would prevail If the law al-
lowed the strong to take advantage
of the weak
Truest hapfclneaB is found In
! bringing- good to others Jesus spoke
of this when he said ’’He that
saveth his life shall lose it but he
that loseth his lifq for my sake shall
! find It" The man who wraps him-
self In the cloak of selfishness and
1 gives no part of his life for the sake
of aiding others to real happiness
knows nothing of life as It really la
'while the man who possesses the
most abundant life is h who gives
himself mopt freely for hla brothers
We would 'all be saved a good
many disappointments a great deal
of sorrow If we (realized that we
cannot bo unjust unfair neglectful
of our duty to others without pay-
Ing the penalty therefor We would
be saved many heartache and much
‘ chagrin If we realized that to harbor
111 feeling against anyone Js to break
the law of brdtllferhood and to sour
our own Uvea ' - -- -
' Many make1 the mistake that they
can make their own choice In such
' conduct— —that they can be Indif-
- ferent to the ’great call of humanity
' for brotherhood and live their own
lives isolated and self-centered and
yet get the' bast there Is in lifo
Such people fool nobody but them-
selves The world soon learns to
realize the cold reserve of selfish-
ness and to him who gives not It
gives not again Such a man lives
out hts narrow life knowing little
of the gieat wealth of brotherhood
that lies all about him and when
be goes hla departure la "unwept
unhonored and unsung”
The real brothers of men are
those who seek every daylri every
not to do justice and klntfiess In
the spirit of love - To oeme-’lt In
gtven to bo lenders of man to
champion law which will 'curb the
hand of rapacity punish the protl-
teery protect the weak' declare hu-
man rights on the rostrum and write
it on statute hooks To far more
it is the privilege to exercise broth-
erhood along with 1 Us inalienable
associates charitableness and for-
giveness in the little every dayacts
among others — In heeding ' the cry
of distress in seeking no advantage
and often yielding that which t Is
one’s own They who do this have
a recompense which none can take
from them — the recompense of the
abundant life which the Savior said
he came to bring '
"I will have mercy and not sacri-
fice” Not-in vainglorious offerings
Of advertised ’alms nor' in per-
formances done for the praise of
men hutr'ln' acta' of real brotherly
love do we show our fellowship with
hiui "who sticketb closer jhan-a
brother” and demonstrate and en-
joy real brotherhood
- WHY THE CHARGES
The Leader has been asked to
explain why It la that entrance to
the grandstand - and races at the
fair parking privileges and amuse-
ments are $harged for when It la a
free fair
The answer la that the term "free
fait” applies only to the exhibits
which really constitute the fair
proper and which arc given first
consideration The money raised by
taxation is used only in connection
with that part of the fair The mon-
ey that the people pay in taxes Is
paid out in premiums on exhibits
and for defraying expenses In ccn-
necyon with these exhibits
None of the money which - the
people pay In taxes goes for amuse-
ments The grounds are furnished
free by the city of Frederick The
county is’ at no expense for the
buildings ' The original buildings
were furnished by the city The
others have been financed by profits
from amusements
So It Is that nearly all of the
money which the people pay In taxes
comes back to them In the form of
premiums Whether they shall spend
any money on amusements Is en-
tirely up to each Individual It takes
all of these things to make a com-
plete fair — something of interest to
every person If a person want only
to Bee the wonderful exhibits shown
at the fair he can do this and be
entertained all day without the cost
of a penny therefor If he wants
other kind of amusements he natur-
ally has to pay for it -

CHAPTER 88
” "What can I do for you?” 1 smil-
ed at Max Hoadley But try as 1
would to appear casual 1 felt far
from "casual" I hadn’t the slight-
est idea why he had come blundering
into my office so precipitately that
Ralph Lacy took an abrupt depar-
ture "What can you do for me?” re-
peated Max Hoadley an If weighing
it "Well I came here to see what
1 could do for you But It cornea to
the name thing I guess You think
the world of my little Susanna May
don’t you?”
' The query was wistful I answered
It simply: "I love her dearly”
"I knew that” said Max Hoadley
with the greatest satisfaction Then
he added shrewdly: "And you thing
none the worse of me for mating
her — nor for having the sense to fall
in love with a wonderful creature
like her You’d not have'put it past
me in my old age to take up with
some silly little creature young
enough to be my granddaughter”
"Oh I never took you for any-
thing other than a man of brains
and ability" I protested uneasily
“And an idiot where the women
folks were concernd Well — that is
as may be But it’s over I’m sat-
isfied to spend the rest of my life on
my knees before my Susanna May
And there’s nothing too much for
me to do for anyone she loves like
she does you You’re her kin If feel-
ings can make folks related She
couldn’t care more for you if she’d
rocked your cradle when you were
a kiddie end fed you pap out of a
silver porringer And that makes
me your uncle whether you like it
or not!"
He looked at me with a comical
air of daring me to deny this I
found myself saying with astonish-
ing earnestness:
"Oh — I don’t deny it” '
"That’s more’n I deserve” he re-
plied dryly "But I’ll come to thd
point thanking you for not hurry-
ing me and flustering an old man
Now Beeing I’m your uncle and was
once a director In this company of
youra I would just like to know
what you mean by going to that
nephew of mine Instead of -md when
you’re hard-pressed for money?”
I set my lips tightly to hold back
an exclamation that might have
been a scream I’d never dreamed
young Rockhlll would tell his uncle
about the check I borrowed and re-
turned so promptly
"Why— what do you mean?” I
asked with a semblance of cool-
ness t
"Don’t play baby” Max Hoadley
answered brusquely "If you need
money I have S darn sight more
than those boys who’re running
Yelda — with the start they got from
me”
"Yes I know” I replied cautious-
ly "But you weren’t at your office
and when I trailed you down to your
place In thd country Aunt May re-
ported that you were sick In bed
I couldn't bother her” — -
"You can’t ‘bother her ’’ amended
Max Hoadley "except by not under-
standing that n childless old couple
like ua can’t ever have any more
fun than standing by a girl both
of ua love— even If that’s presuming
from me”
"It Isn’t!” I cried wishing his pro-
tests and evident discomfort in tho
role of Uncle didn’t make It incum-
bent on me to encourage him Just
bccauso bo was so sadly ill at ease-
AND TOLD her that her

THAT’S ALL
Max Hoadley ran his finger around
the collar that tightly encased his
short neck and sank down into a still
more squat figure as he relaxed In
his chair -
"Then If it ain’t presuming” he
brought out explosively "I’d like to
know why you wanted to borrow tea
thousand dollars from Howard Rock-
hill or anybody else?"
"I — needed It” I said ’
"You needed it!” Max Hoadley
barked hoarsely "How’d you make
out to need ten thousand dollars at
eleven o’clock and come handing it
back without a word of explanation
at two o’clock? That ain’t anyways
natural at all!” v
I was hard put to It for an answer
I hated to hurt the man who had
come with such kindly Intent But
what was there for me to tell him
but the truth? Still feeling my
way cautiously I murmured in a
manner I hoped would alienee him:
"The thing that vyas- worrying
me took care Of itself That’s all”
"You mean that’s all you’re going
to tell me”
"It’s all I can tell” I asserted
"Well that Is as may be But If
you ever again come to a place
where you need ten thousand dol-
lars In a hurry my advice la apply
to an old man who feels like he
was your uncle And when once you
get your hands on the money hang
on a little longer Sure everything’s
all right?”
“Everything’s all right” I In-
sisted -
He looked at me appraisingly
"Nothing more to say?”
"I never had anything to say!” I
laughed recovering my poise as I
realized I’d managed to keep the
secret which involved Neal so cruel-
ly and had done it without offend-
ing Aunt May’s husband
"You’re certainly Close-mouthed1
protested Max Hoadley lumbering
to hla feet "I hope you haven’t
been offended by my good offices
I told young Howard to hold his
tongue and you can’t rest assured
I’ll do likewise”
"Meaning you won’t even tell
Aunt May ‘Uncle Max’?” I brought
out mischievously
“There’s nothing I keep from her
of my free will" he answered
gravely "But I blundered on this
and if you was to tell me it would
hurt you to have her- know what
funny things you get Into through
that big kind heart of youra I’d
keep It from her If only to save
her worry" - -
His tone was vaguely suggestive
Without realising how I was com-
mitting myself I asked:
"Does Aunt May worry about
me?" -
"A lot" replied Max Hoadley in
hla hoarse tone “And she will
worry still more If you dbn’t come
to us this Sunday as you’ve been
promising every Sunday for a month
Susanna says you work too hard
There’s al— man In your family ain’t
there?"
“Aunt May know how 1 love to
work You know how ambitious l
am I — I have set myself a mark
for thla year I’ll have to work
harder than ever And I don’t ex-
pect my friends to Interfere”
Deep set little eyes searched my
face for- a moment Then my guest
rose to depart with a quick: -
“No one’s going to Interfere If you
don’t work fit— to kill Bay there’s
-question I had on my mind over
since I cuqiu lu We’d Uka to luvltS
your young brother out to visit us
till he gets over the worst of the
shock of his poor lltle wife’s death
How about his coming Sunday aad
ataylngf”
1 felt my lips mumbling for words
I’d known all along that friends hnd
acquaintances must soon begin ask-
ing questions It would be hard to
answer - -
He— can’t come’’ I managed try-
ing to decide how much more I could
trust myself to say ' 5v-
'Muc Hoadley same- back 1 aad
leaned across my deak His face
was gentle and pitying as be asked:
"Anne tell me— where’s - your
brother Nealt” -

WHAT HAPPENED WHEN THE
LITTLE APPLE FELL
A little thing we do not see -
May change the world for you or
me — Striped Chipmunk
Black Pussy' had waited patiently
for a very long time in the hot sun
waited without moving save for the
tip of her tall close to the little
round hole in the middle cd the path
on one side of the Old Orchard She
had felt sure that If only she were
patient 4 enough and ‘ waited long
enough Striped Chipmunk ' would
eome out' of that little round hole
Novt tpe patience In Black Pussy’s
yellow eyes gave place to a look of
eager fierceness the tip or her tail
twitched more j than ever the sharp
claws of her front paws came out of
hiding and she made ready for a
sudden spring Her ears had caught
just the faintest of sounds but she
knew what they meant They meant
that Striped Chipmunk was running
along hla little hall under ground
and in just a second or two he
would pop out of that little round
hole s - -
Now Striped Chipmunk seldom is
heedless He knows that heedless-
ness is the cause of much trouble
and not infrequently costs some one
his life So Striped Chipmunk has
always made it a point to look be-
fore be leaps But this particular
time he forgot Or if he didn’t for-
get he was in too much of a hurry
to be careful which was quite as
With
a snarl IDiu-k Pussy wns
after liim
bad Anyway Instead of poking just
his nose and eyes out for a look
all around to Bee that all was safe
aa is his rule he scrambled up to
that little round doorway and pop-
ped out -
Several things happened Just then
but the most Important thing was
the falling of a certain little apple
from a certain branch high above
the path Weakened by a little
worm in its heart It chose JuBt that
Instant that particular instant to
let go Its hold on the branch and
drop Down it fell straight and true
and landed — where do you think?
Right smack on the head of Black
PusBy just as she started to spring
on Striped Chipmunk! Yes sir
that is Just what happened!
Thump 1 That certain little apple
wherein lived a certain little warm
landed on the head of Black Pussy
Just as she started to spring For
Just a second she lost sight of Strip
ed Chipmunk and Instead it seemed
to her as if she saw ever so many
little stars And of course she
missed that spring When she could
see clearly again Striped Chipmunk
was running for the old stone wall
as fast as his legs could take him
With a snarl Black Pussy was after
him But she was too late Yes
sir she was too late Striped Chip-
munk whisked out of Bight down
between the stones of the old wall
and from the safety of his hiding
place called her every bad thing he
could thing of My my how he did
scold! '
Black Pussy looked all about to
see -what had hit her Her head
ached and she was frightened She
suspected that her master Farmer
Brown’s Boy had discovered what
he was doing and "had thrown
something at her But Farmer
Brown’s Boy was nowhere to be
seen Nobody was to be seen The
Old Orchard was as quiet and peace-
ful aa ever4 it had been A certain
little apple lay cloae beside the path
but little apples were lying all about
on the ground and Black Pussy
didn’t even look at this certain little
apple She growled at Striped Chipmunk-and
then turned and sneaked
away In a hurry toward Farmer
Brown's barn
Striped Chipmunk came out on
the old atone wall and watched her
go And all the time he scolded As
only he -and his cousin Chatterer
the Red Squirrel can And ovqr in
that certain little apple a certain
little worm went on eating and eat-
ing and never guessed that he had
saved the Ufe of Striped Chipmunk
And Striped Chipmunk never guess-
ed ‘it either It Is often that way
in this Great World

VILLAGE VOTED r
‘EARTH IS FLAT
By Associated Press- “
Chicago September 17 — T h e
story of "The Village That Voted
the Earth la - Flat" has an earnest -adherent
In Wilbur Glenn Voliva
overseer of Zion- the religious com-
munity that Alexander Dowle found-
ed at Zion City a litNe north of
Chicago '
Declaring that there la no proof
whatsoever of the sphericity of the
earth or that the earth has any mo-
tion Overseer Voliva' says he Is
"prepared to refute modern astron-
omy scientifically as well as from
the standpoint'’ of the Bible" - -Here
are some of the points he
ftitvonfiAS -
"All standing water is level:' Let
any one disprove It If he can They
cannot disprove it This Is conclu-
sive evidence that the old Pythagor-ean-Copernican
system of the spheri-
city cd the earth is false ‘ -
"A man stood at Kingston Jatt-
acla and saw the lighthouse at Hav-
ana Harbor' eighty-two miles dis-
tant which la another conclusive
proof that the sphericity of 'rhe
eaith Is a fake 7 s
"The midnight sun has been seen
hundreds of times but It would bo
‘There is a railroad In South
America two thousand miles long
which is almost perfectly level Tho
Suez Canal is a hundred miles long
without locks and with acarcely any
rise at all Where is your curvature
of the earth? There is none ’f
“No wander higher crltlcs snd
modern btf levers in the Copernican
system of astronomy laugh at the
flood and say that such thing as a
flood could not occur on a globe or
a spherical earth— and I agree with
them They are perfectly right
That is what the Devil intended
when he Invented the modern as-
tronomical theory — to destroy the
Word of God
"They say that eclipses are caused
by the earth passing between ttie
moon and the sun causing the
shadow but how can you have an
eclipse with both the aun and the
moon above the horizon? It la a
matter of record that there have
been a number of eclipses with both
the moon and the sun above the
horizon No one knows what causcia
eclipses ' '
“They tell you that the sun Js
nlnetyvtwo million miles away I
laugh at that not only as a ma-
thematician but also as a student
of God Almighty’s Word
"Did God Almighty create the
earth and then create a light to
light It up and put t nlnety-tvfp
million miles distant and make It a
million times larger than the earth?
What kind of a fool would build -a
house up in Kenosha and erect a
light a hundred miles from It to
light up the parlor? - i
“They say that science Is not spe-
o'ulatton but if science is true
then there can be no conflict be-
tween it and the Word of God — but
when it comes to the Word of God
they have not a leg to stand on I
will take the Word of God and
down any modern astronomer on
the face of the earth and dispose
of him In less than thirty minutes’
