X Hy JOSETH QUIJfftEy, J"R.. ATTUL. iCTH. 19 72. "People who are waited upon by a serving class canndt havo a Just con sideration of others, that they wnste both tlmo and substanco both of which are lost forover, and can onlv partially bo mado good by additional effort." "Tho person who lives on tho la bors of others not giving in roturn to tho best of his ability, is really a consumer of human lifo, and there fore no better than a Cannibal." Every moment of tlmo spent n contributing comfort to others, is a ministration to one's own soul. .There Is nothing that comes Into the lifo of nn individual that is more productivo of Soul-culturo than an effort mado in developing and helping others. Tho Individual whoso person and character reflect tho nobility which results from a lifo of helpfulness to others, has mado for himself n suro and enduring place In tho respect of his fellows. For respectability Is moro n matter of doing than tho mero thought of bo Ing Just as tho beautiful is higher than tho good, because tho beautiful con tains nil the good. Tho doing of a good net, Is a beautiful thing when tho motive Is unselfish and high, and yet, wo nro sometimes deceived In tho nttltudo of individuals who apparently contribute a kindness when the mo tivo behind thnt act Is wholly solflsh. Those Individuals nro puroly solf sorvers, consumers of human life. They nro tho parasites who subsist upon the efforts of others. Thoy put on an :ppenranco of dignity In tho presenco of society, spending moro time upon tho cleanliness of tholr wearing apparel, thon In purging from their souls wicked thoughts which eventually bocome spoken words, and criminal deeds. Thesfc Individuals arc measured by whnt thoy have on, nnd not what they havo ' - within. They consume not only your time, but they spend your money, at tack your good name, they ruin your family, and disgrace your community, yet these Individuals pass as a res pectable type, and move about In so cial clrclos almost unchallenged. No person enn havo In his heart corrupt and wicked thoughts, and stand tho test. Thcro comes Inovlt ably into his lifo a tlmo when this assumed respectability has lost its virtue, dignity and prldo, nnd finally this Individual sinks Into oblivion among the ruins'bf tho forgotten past. Ho no longer has nny claim on what Is considered decent and upright, be cause ho has contributed nothing to tho uplift of his associates ho has given nothing to socloty, but has wrought only misery and dlstresa So nfter nil, tho true respectability Is tho doing, tho acting, and tho saying of Intensified, pure, aud good thoughts. Thoro is a difference in tho concop tlrti of respectability, but only in so far as tho grade of humanity goes, tho underlying principal of nil true respectability is tho same Thero was a time when priests nnd teachers of theology, by renson of their station, laid ilret claim in tho minds of people to exalted respectabil ity. Tholr wearing apparel indicated tho super-natural In tho oyos of the community, thoy could rend and wrlto, and by reason of this distinction they wero different from other people. In fact thoy 'were so different from, nnd so high nbovo, that thoy were exempt from all criticism, and stood as It wero, tho great spiritual and temporal bonds of tho community in which thoy lived. There was a tlmo in tho his tory of theso Individuals whon thoy wore oven responsible for torturo, Im prisonment and death to those who dared say a word In their own defense, and Individual liberty. Aud yet theao peoplo were tho crown of respectabil ity. Their, howover, was n respecta bility that camo to thorn through fear, awe aud superstitious rdverence, and not through tho qualities of lifo whlcii win tho enduring love of humanity. Wider education and llturallzed envir onment bring about n different con ception of things. During tho tlmo that I havo Just cited, respectability rested largely upon position. The position was too often used for the Inforcement of n solflsh motive. Tho position, however, wns well establish ed and It required character to show that this kind of respectability was not conducive to the best Interests of tho people. Savonorola, ono of tho purest souls of his tlmo, set nbout to bring to hl3 poopio a moral roform, a respectabil ity If you pleaso, for tho word of God that had long been lost. This man was a peasant, and In his young years was ugly and much disliked, oven by his own family, but ho had a magnifi cent, nnd a beautiful soul. His old grand-father would tnko him In tho flold among tho flowors nnd trees, play tho fluto to him, and explain tho high moral relationship that should oxlst among God's children. So Biiseptlblo wns this young boy to tho teachings of tho old man, that ho simply absorbed everything that hlB venerable companion snld. His soul dovoloped along tho natural linos of lovo nnd of beauty ns thoy came lo him from the woods, green fields and flowors. This Inspiration grow upon him, and it happened, naturally, thnt Instead of tho old man playing to the child, tho boy was playing the fluto, and explaining- In n moro intensified Continued on rago 4, TO COMMEMORATE I MOTHERS DAY In compllanco with tho proclama ll tlons of the President of tho United 9l States and tho Governor of our State, ll Cache County, cheerfully responds in ll a grand commomoratlon of Mothers Hl Day on Sumlny, May 12th, at 2:00 p.
