This Is My 68 th Birthday
LEWIS B. CARLL. ' Prof. Lewis B. Carll, who has gain d wide distinction aa a mathemati
cian and as the author ot textbooks for the blind, was born blind in White-
stone, L. I., June 16, 1843. When he waa about ten years out he was enter
ed aa a pupil In the "New York Institution for the Blind, where he remained until he graduated in the studies there taught. The high order of men
tality possessed by the blind boy, and his pronounced inclination to study.
convinced his parents that he was.
In educational requirements, destined
to outstrip many of those possessed
of sight. He was accordingly entered In Columbia university and In 1S70 he graduated, rccond In his class. The university later granted Prof. Carll a fellowship, which is, in reality, a life pension, upon the sole condition that the university library a copy of any he should from time to time file In researches which ho might make in mathematics or other subjects.
In The Balance
Earlham College has come to that place in Its affairs where it is either going forward or backward. By a coincidence the eame thing applies to the condition of its fund. Practically all the available territory outside of Richmond and Wayne county has been covered. Never before in the history of Earlham has money come so willingly and with as good spirit. The reason for this is easy to understand. The College is no longer the Friends' Boarding School a little provincial sectarian institution of the pioneers it has come into its own. The very fact that forces quite outside the Society of Friends are coming to the support of Earlham means that Earlham has a sphere of Influence greater than the limits, of an orthodox religious circle. We cannot think that this is a bad thing for the Society of Friends in the West. It shows that they have a work and a message to the outside world instead of an ingrowing self sufficiency. When it was settled that Earlham was to be a place of open mindedness clinging to the true spirit of religious freedom and human liberty laid down as fundamental by the founders of the Society of Friends it could not help but be an institution with a message. And Earlham college must always have a message to the outside world If It is to grow inwardly or outwardly, spiritually or materially.
TWINKLES
It is because in the last ten years a change along the best progressive lines has come that Earlham college is entitled to support. And it is because support must come if this spirit i3 to continue that we urge support of Earlham college. The time has come when Earlham's fate is to be settled. Is Earlham to be progressive? The fate of, the Institution is in the hands of this community. It is the concern of every man, woman and child. It is above any mere boosting concern of the community.
If Earlham relapses into the coma of the small sectarian institution; without hope, with no message to the world, with ideals bound by narrow limits of reaction, led and not the leader, It will be the fault of this community. There is a chance for Earlham to lead the institutions of the state, free from all fear of the future, secure in the appreciation of its friends and with the backing of the whole community. What is this community going to do? Earlham's fate is being decided now.
The Small Consumer
There is one aspect of the water works situation which we hope the constituted representatives of the city will not overlook. That is the right of the small consumer. The small consumer is the man who supplies most of the patronage of the plant; he is the backbone of the town. The Pennsylvania railroad, various ice plants and other ranufacturing concerns are the largest consumers of water. It is known that they will continue to be. But if the burden of water rates is put too heavily on the everyday man there will be a reason added for labor troubles, for general discontent, for the increasing difficulty In living. The increasing difficulty in living reaches deep into the whole moral fabric of the town. It is a fact that in those places where water and other public utility rates are high that towns do not grow. That where rates of extension are prohibitive or retarding in their influence, the town does not grow. That means something.
It Is urged that if the city is to participate heavily in the profits the rates must be maintained at least as high as they are now. Perhaps but the Injustice will appear then more strikingly that the rates of the public ability are taxes. Is the tax to be laid more heavily on the man least able to pay?
TOBACCO CUSTOM
FRAUDS REPORTED (National News Association) Havana. June 16. Charges that cus

"THIS DATE IN HISTORY"
JUNE 16TH. 1648 Margaret Jones was hanged In Boston for witchcraft, 1773 John Adams nominated George Washington for commander of the Colonial army. 1776 The British retook Montreal from the Americans. 1778 The "Independent Ledger and American Advertiser" appeared in Boston. 1S49 James K. Polk, eleventh President of the United States, died in Nashville, Tenn. Born in Mecklenburg county, N. C, Nov. 2, 1795. 1864 By a flank movement Grant reached Petersburg, where he was repulsed several days later witn great loss. 1868 Mt. Cenis railroad through the Alps opened. 1869 Dr. Livingstone, the African explorer, reached the Congo river. 1877 The Canadian and United States Fishery commission convened at Halifax. 1888 Emperor Frederick of Germany died. Born Oct 18, 1831. 1S89 Anglo-Venzuelan commission met. 1D04 Steamer "General Slocum'' burned in the East River, with loss of more than 1,000 lives.
MEN AND BOOKS. "Of course," said Lord Luvvus, "you will admit that there is a fascination about a distinguished name or a uniform trimmed with gold braid." "Perhaps." replied Miss Cayenne, "but after all a man is like a book, not to be judged by a title or the binding."
A WARM DAY EXTRAVAGANCE. No pearls of orient I'd own; Gold has no lure for me; Just take me to the frigid zone, Where all the ice is free.
A SARDONIC SATISFACTION. . "You take a great deal of interest in what your member of congress is doing." "I read every word of his speeches" replied Farmer Corntossel. "I dunno's what he thinks'll make much difference. I jes' like to sit down in the shade an' picture him as up there workln' like the dickens."
we're lucky at least in beinsr allowed
to stay here where the temperature is
several degrees lower than it is at the kiosk."
CLOCKS. "What an elegant timepiece that is!" said the old time friend. "Yes," replied Mr. Cumrox. "that's about as elegant a clock as money will buy." "You were once content with a much simpler affair." "Of course. Nobody wants to waste more than a dollar on a clock that wakes him up and tells him when to go to work. But when it wakes him up and reminds him that he doesn't have to go to work he feels more friendly and liberal."
POLITENESS OVERWORKED. A man there is whose fortune lies In saying, "I apologize!" He feels with all the world at ease When he exclaims, "Excuse me, please." His manner mild and confident Bids every angry mood relent, And all your harsh resentment flit As you reply, "Don't mention it." And so his willful way he goes. He steps upon your tenderest toes; He elbows you and hurts your pride As patiently you stand aside And let him grab the dairy lunch Or battle through the baseball bunch That sought the front seat at the game Which now serenely he will claim. He's here, he's there, he's everywhere, And yet to chide him who would dare? He has a saving grace immense Of mingled nerve and innocence That lets him bully us at ease If he but says "Excuse me, please!"
'VALUABLE TRAINING. "Why do you insist on that boy's studying music?" said the man with respect for are. "You know he can't sing." "Yes," replied the patient father. "I know it. And I want him to realize it for himself."
A SUMMER IMPRESSION. And now when days grow fiercely brighe Come thoughts we scared the children with. Those cold iconiclasts were right Old Santa Claus is but a myth!
OVERHEARD. "The man I admire," said the sentimental girl, "must be one who goes ahead regardless of all obstacles. "I'm the fellow," replied the young man at her side. "I used to drive a brewery wagon and I have just gotten a job as a taxicab chauffeur."
COMFORTS APPRECIATED. "A weather bureau man has many hardships," said the man who was reading the thermometer. "Yes," replied the observer of the light variable wind instrument; "but INVIGORATING! Logos Stomach Tonic Makes You Feci Like a New Person Ail Over. You can easily overcome that feeling of laziness and indifference that grips you on the first warm days "Spring Fever" we all call it.

SPARROWS BUILT NEST IN WHISTLE
Elwood. Ind., June 16. Wrhen the
engineer of the water works tried to
sound the alarm of fire a few nights ago for the first fire that had occurred here in two months, he found the whistle would not blow. Investiga
tion showed that English sparrows
had taken possession of the whistle and there were four complete nests built in the copper cylinder, three of which were filled with eggs and the foutrh was crowded with young birds. The eggs and birds were cooked by the steam that was turned into the whistle when the cord that opens the steam valve was pulled.
