Md. y \ "On# By One, Tint Star* Con# Out* (The following editorial, which appeared in The Tampa Globe of May 6, will take rank, according to mauy judge* of newspaper editorial style, as a high type of journalistic literature.) As the sun poises on the western horizon like a giant bail of fire and shoots its Vist rays before hurrying on its eriand to herald another day, and to light the world of other people, then* come8 that quiet hour of the day~~thnt slowing down of the noisy wheels of life?that hush of the day, sunset-time. There's no sinking to rest of the sun. There's ntver any rest for the sun?its job is thut of lightkeeper, his work-tlsat of furnishing light and warmth for the nations of the world. Maybe the sun does hang for a time out in the west hating to leave us, possibly envying mortals the peace of the sunset hour, and perhaps*those multi-colored shafts of light that we see shooting from the sun are the protests of a tired old sun who wearies of its task of forever looking down on the frailties of a funny old world. But, there's a rest time for all mortal life?there's a rest time for man and beast und for flower and bird. As a sign of its approach midafternoon casts small shadows to be soon followed by the longer and deeper shadows, and then the hours of no shadows at all as darkness falls. Sunset-time is rest time, and the light or rest time is starlight, for thejre's no need of the dazzling brightness of the sun at rest time. Sunset-time is the sweetest time? the peaceful time of the day. It's the tired mother's time?the tired father's time, and the tired children's time. The hour of dusk is ever restful. What a terrible punishment it would be if it was always daylight time and the sun was always shining. , How wonderful it is that night does come, for without darkness there'd be no stars, and without troubles, there'd be none of the sweeter, truer joys. Those, merry, tiny, dim twinkling) points of light in God's wide canopy at night hold a promise for us all,; which soothes our tired minds, and hearts. And they come out one by one. That's the way the stars come out, always one by one. Have you ever thought of that- as you've witnessed the grandeur of the transformation of day into night? Have you ever thought of that as you've been enveloped in the shadows as the dark mantle is so gently and quietly thrown around a tired world? And have you noticed that as you've sat under the starlit dome and watched the stars as they were marshalled and set into place one by one that you're soothed and your troubles are put away?one. by one. That's the way everything worthwhile works. The lesson is learned from the stars?one by one each- is attained and one by one each success is achieved. And one by one your good deeds mount up, and one by one your kind words cheer the discouraged. Don't wait to do the many big things all at once, brother, do the small things one by one and soon you'll have a whole skyful of happiness surrounding you. Oh, tired mothers, enn't you learn that the lessons you must teach your own must be one by one and not all at once. Or, tired business men, can't you learn that the lessons of life are learned one by one and that they're honesty and tolerance?and thai they're not records of sharp deals and cute tricks. And if we're tempted to think that, we're beaten ut any game of life,, can't we all remember the lessop of the stars?that battles like everything else Are won?one by one. Drinking Orgy Causes Deaths Cologne, Germany, July 8.?A drinking orgy that began when . a wine-laden steamer was wrecked and its cargo washed ashore, has cost the lives of five persons and the serious illness of a score more. Attracted bv the wrecking of the steamer which crashed into a bridge on the, Rhine near here, hundreds of persons gathered on the river banks yesterday and followed the wine casks, released by, the impact. The casks floated down the river for a time and then strandid on the banks where they were broached freely. The drinking wont j on until the river banks were dotted , with persons overcome by the wine, j So disorderly did the drinkers bei come thai 80 policemen had to be i summoned to restore order and to confiscate the wine casks. When the . excitement subsided it was found that [ two persons had died of alcoholic j poisoning, two fell in the river and were drowned and one was killed in a brawl. Twenty others were so ill that they were taken to a hospital where it wa? found they were suffering from alcoholic poisonfhg. A Thought For The "Buy Lowe/' (Kork Hill RoconL) f Suppose some morning all of your customers refused to buy from you unless you cut your price to a point below the actual coat. Such a circumstance would be distressing. If you met their demands, you would go broke; if you did not, and therefore suspended selling, your expenses would soon bring to you the same end. Very sad, indeed! However, if not only your customers, but all customers of all firms should .simultaneously decide that they would no longer pay a profit fori what they bought, the result would be disastrous. The recent general strike in Great Britain, would be jnere child's play compared with this. There are few men who do not desire that those from whom they buy make a legitimate profit, but should [this by any strange chance toe read by one of those who stage contim,p>uK bidding contests, and refuse to buy until some unlucky contestant makes an error in his figures, or, driven by a poverty that such practices breed; offers the desired merchandise at a ruinous price, we hope that this picture of the result of a general adoption of his selfish practice "will flash before his mind's eye. Men who consistently endeavor to buy below cost may be sharp traders, but by no twisting of economic laws > could they ever be rightly termed business men. We laught at the phrase "Live and Let Live/" incorporated In the names of grocery stores, barber shops and bakeries, yet there is a Ideal of business wisdom and plain , American honesty in ' this queer phrase. We can not but think of I some large corporations, and some public utilities, themselves insisting on rates based on a fair per cent, of earnings on their investment, who could well ponder this homely axiom. Succumb* to Injariea 1 >* Witt Knight, 19-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Knight of Lancaster, who was injured Saturday night last near Kichburg, Chester county, when an automobile driven by two negroes collided with the truck on which young Knight, David Blackmon and a young man named Ghent were riding, died Wednesday night at 8:30 o'clock at the Chester Sanatorium from blood poisoning. Young Knight was badly mashed about the body and it was necessary to amputate the right leg just below the knee. David Blackmon, bis companion, suffered minor injuries but young, Ghent, who was driving the truck, was unhurt except for a bad shakeup. Mr. Knight was riding I on the fender of the * truck., when' struck by an automobile driven by1 two negroes on their way from Kichburg to Chester. The negroes were also injured and were taken to u Chester hospital for treatment. The Mackcy ambulance went to Chester Wednesday evening and brought the body to Lancaster where it was prepared for burial, the funeral exercises and burial taking place at Westside cemetery Thursday afteri noon at 8:80' o'clock, Kev. H. P. Bennett officiating at the funeral service. The deceased is survived by his parents, his father being blind, one sister and one brother, all of whom have the sympathy of the entire community in their great loss.?
