THE GREATEST \toNDER.
By S. C. Johnson, '26, Jonh
son C. Smith University.
In the calm and (iuiMUd6 o
in autumn evening, in the Whit
nountains of New Hampshire
is the sun was slowly stoopinj
;o bid farewell to the dying day
[ stood gazing upon the beauti
ful vista^,sunset.
As the rays of the settin
m the autumnal colors, there a
rose before mine eves,a seen
from the great drama of life a
vhich I was amazed and exrlaim
sd, Wonderful!
Thereupon stood I reflectin
ipon the question, What is th
greatest wonder in the world
Have you decided upon wha
you consider the greatest won
3er in the world? __
First, what is a wonder?" i
wonder is anything that is no
well understood, smething to b
admired, something at which t
be * astonished. For instance
let us consider the Seven Won
will, to Rome, and there visi
the colesiuhi, a great elipse cov
ering six .acres of lancL huil
throughout with stone and cor
crete.~~ As one looks upon thi
amphitheater, he is amazed an
exclaims, Wonderful-!??
Turn tljen to Pisa and ther
look upon the leaning towei
with its sik galleries of pillar
rising to a height of 179 fee
an dwith a deviation from th
perpendicular of fourteen fee
As one gazes upon this might
structure defying the laws c
nature, he is astonished, and e:
claims, Wonderful!
From the"nce to Bamylonran
there the hanging garden;
forming a square with an are
of four acres. As one looks uj
r
on its terraces supported by mi
sonic arches, rising to the heigfc
of seventy-five feet, and upon it
groves wher?-vbl6bmlrtg "fTovfei
di versitf y-the scene.heis-dum
founded, and exclaims, Wondei
ftrib- ~ -?: .
Look then to Egypt, and ther
behold the mighty pyramid
with their broad base, which i
symbolical of the beginning
and terminating in^ a point t
symbolize the end of life?A
one Ifloksr upon-the Sphiroc^whos
grim look portrays- the deter
mination of the Negro race, h
is ai3tounded. amL exclaims Wn
derfuf!?
?Ojt1 vvlien one sees the Palac
of Cyrua cemented with golc
or the Colossus of Rhodes wit
vessels passing between its leg;
or the statute of Jupiter mad
by Phidias, he is delighted an
exclaims, Wonderful!
Is either of these the greal
est wonder in the world? Or i
it the aeroplane by means c
which one m&y eat breakfast i
New York and supper the sam
night in San Francisco? Or i
it the radio by means of whic
mother's babies in Florida ma
be lulled to sleep by the dream
tone* of ^ melody played in Cot
ada??Truly these?are?grea
wonders, but the greatest won
der in the world is woman, i
threefold wonder is she: sweel
heart, wife and mother.
Woman is the guide ahd counsellc
of youth, and the confidant and corr
panion of manhood, in her relation
of sweetheart, wife and mother. He
influence affects the entire destifiy <
man. Thackery^isaysl "Man is de;
tirted to be the prey of woman."
The greatest qualities of woma
are displayed in her relatrir>n to other
Woman is the nurse whom nature ht

charge of the helpless, and nourish*
and cherishes those we love. She

I one thinks of these qualities of wo0

jy In jTTe first" place, consider, if you
