Somebody blundered when this imposing looking structure was being
designed. On a cold winter's day it
is more like the interior of a mortuary chapel. The lack of sufficient radia

That scene should Impress.

THE MEASURE OF A MAN.
There are a number of good ways
to measure a man.
One of the best ways is to notice his
pleasures.
If the only thing that can interest
a man is a decomposed story, he is
a leper.
If the only Ionian that can inter
est a; man is some other woman be
sides his wife, he's a moral blot. If his chief pleasure in life is the O'illifying of and falsifying about his competitor, he's a viper. If he's afraid to look you In the eye when he passes you on the street, he's a skunk. , ' If his sabbath sport is the savage joy of gloating over what will happen to the damned, he is a devil. But the man who loves a ball game,
a political mass meeting and hia
work is worth his weight. And to be worth your weight is wonderful. There are' so" few of us who are. , The highest form of pleasure is when it manifests .itself in work. . Pleasure is strictly a mental state,
and men of strong minds can enjoy whatever they want to. To speak of a man as a drudge because he does not know how to enjoy anything but work is to give yourself away. The only men who are drudges are men who have to work without enjoying it. A man never really lives until he learns to find pleasure In his work, aad since every honest man , must work, why not make it a pleasure? s
