Of course the choir refused to volunteer their services, although they all re ceived their musical education at the expense of Mr.Vanderbilt. That's what we'd call ingrati-] tude. ______ A writer in the Concord (N.C.) Chronicle sizes it up about right Nwhen he says: "The lawyer speaks to 12 men for one hour and gets $100. The preacher, preaches to 200 men each week, and gets $5as seron. The doc tor prescribes to 10 menl10 times and gets $10. The newspaper speaks to the world every day in < the year and gets hardly a liv ing,. and when it speaks it gives more than the lawyer gives, 1 more than the preacher gives. and more thanth@ doctor gives, all for anickel." And yet some misguided people think a dollar,2 a year is too much to pay for their home paper. .
