Gold Always Loved by Man
1 , '
New York, Jan. 12.?Gold has been
t one of the most compelling force* in
1 the molding of human history, says
,i the January Mentor Magazine. In all
t ages on?l all languages, the word itself
has been luring and commanding. I
f In the second chapter of Genesis, the
lund of Havilah, Kvhere there is:
gold," is mentioned. The Ark of the
^ Covenant was extensively ornamented
. with gold. Solomon's thrum* was of |
t t'.old, and, when the Queen of Sheha
visited him, it was flanked by soldiers
c bearing "two lntndred targets of beut-|
u cn gold." The Three Wise Men of j
p the Past, who followed the Star of
s Bethlehent, bore golden gifts. In Rev-I
f elation the Apostle John pictures the j
Heavenly City as one of golden,

s Painter Comes Into His Own
8 """
" New York, Jan. 10.?Benjamin j
h West, obscure pioneer in American
e art, though he later became painter
n to the King of England, at last has
?-1 come into his own in hia native land, i
d. For the first time in the century
'd and more since he was laid to rest in
St. Paul's Cathedral, London, along?t
side Barry, Reynolds and Van Dyke,
?s a comprehensive public exhibit of
in West's work is being held in Philadelphia
near the place of his J>irth.
by the Philadelphia AtL. Alliance.
The exhibit conrpriscl^rrenty-eighti
n selections, paintings am?drawings and j
' according to Albert Rosenthal, secre-j
: tary of the committee in chages, pre-,
sents a full view of West's power and
lo versatility.
j. "From painting portraits in Phila-'
-e delphia for a mere substence, to be-;
K come the painter to the King of Eng-;
land; standing with Reynolds and'
iy Lawrence in his profession, one of the
jc Royal Academy and its second pre-1
,r ^sident succeeding Reynolds, seems a
ir bit of romance rather than a stately
ment of fact". Mr. Rosehthal said.
,c "But such are the facta."
West was bcrn in the Quaker com.munity
of Springfield now Swarte
more, Pa., October 10, 1738.
He began his career as an artist at
y seven, with a pencil drawing of his
sister's baby, inspired when he saw
ie the infant smile in its sleep. At;
r eighteen he set up in Philadelphia as j
4 a portrait painter, moving pn two
years later to New York and again,!
two Vooro lafni* Ifol., 1
rt ? , -w, v.. ?v?.jr, n.inr lie
' worked for three years.
Next he invaded London, with n
j series of historic and religious paintings
appearing as one of the leaders
of the revolt against the current imitation
of classic art. King George
III quickly became interested in West
r and took him under his special patronage,
appointing him in 1772 historic
painter to the King.
PT He was one of four artists who
r presented to King George the plan
Is for a Royal Academy; was one of its
^ founders and, at the death of Sir
r Joshua Reynolds, became its second
a president.
o When he died, in March, 1820, he
was given sepulture in St. Paul's as

Well, people, take all of-Uii^annnry ''
and the human energy that is to bei?

the world will be better. I.ct a few.'

and other countries change about. I :i
mean, the people get in touch more
and more with each other's financial 11
condition and if this could be done it 11
woldd bring about better eondit ions.
That is what I think about it. If all "
malice and strife among nations could h
be wiped out and a bettor feeling ex- "
ist there would be better times soon. 11
I don't like to criticize anybody, but 1
I don't believe the tiller of the soil
has ever got enough for his labor. >
Those who raise cotton have not. 1 t
have seen that poor woman laboring 1
under the heat and burden of the day
with that little child just beginning <
to creep sitting in the 1 ox under some i
shade*tree or canvass cloth to keep *
the rays of the hot sun from beam- 1
ing down on this little fellow while v
mother was digging away in the cot <
ton field nearby and father following
the plow to try to make a loaf and at 1
the end never get half a one. 1 don't I
belie/e in strikes, but it does seem .
to me the basis and fundamental need i
is better wages for those who toil on i
the farms of America. But why (
shouldn't a day's work on the farm hi s
worth as much as a day's work else- <
v.here? Agriculture will never come t
into its rightful place until the farmer I
demand ; and gets as good wages for i
his own labor, his hired labor and t
the labor of his wife and children as is (
received by similar toil and effort in r
ether occupations.
I know a few things, or I believe I
do. I have heard a whole lots, seen a ;
good deal. Some nvght say it didn't i
cost anything to raise this crop,, my l
wife and children did the woik; where- j
as .his children are at the ages when |
urban children are in the school nine ,
months in the year, while as for his t
wife, she has had in her household (
work all that her time or strength
\\ on hi jusuiy, consequently in aciuuig i
the extra labor of the fields, she has
taken on a surplus task which has
sapped her strength and shortened her i
days, a part of her very lifeblood is
sold with the crop she has wearily cultivated
so cheap. Did it indeed cost
nothing to make such crops? It cost
the education Lirt bright of those farm
children; it cost something a hundredfold
more precious than money from
the overburdened life of that farmer's ,
wife. Instead of being content with
no wages or hnlf wages, for such
labor, it should receive if it has to
be permitted at all it should he double
wages. You all know that most
of the farmers who made cotton that
cost 40 cents per pound to raise it took
orders in advance if you n
rtmerit is ahead of the mani
i; your order ahead.

Killed Motor On Track;
Locomotive Killed Driver
Uowland (ii'Hiithani. of Jones t'ounty.
Mi? sissippi, was driving over tin
Southern Hallway tracks in an antamoliile
last Wednesday. When he
had his nwuhmc on the tracks he
saw a fast passenger train hearing
down on him. His motor "went
dead." The train struck the car and
he was killed.
While we have not the details of
this accident, it is safe to assume
that this motorist failed to take a
precaution that thousands of motorists
daily fail to take. It is
mote likely that on seein the
neceucrni or, gave me ('limine ion
much gas and it "wont doad." If he
had put hi' motor into second, or better
into first, before attempting to
cross the tracks, he would be alive
today.
Those drivers of motor cars who
read this might ask themselves how
often they "go into second" before
crossing a railway track. Little
