A person who keeps his eyes open and knows what is going on, and who asserts a conviction from what e sees. One may think it is very difficult, considering the complexity and multiplicity of events, to possess oneself of a governing truth from the driftwood of the rapidly - passing stream of things. But that I8 not what he has to do. If a personh has to wait for every little particular he will never reach a judgment or belief. You can see such people in a commu- nity, mere peckers of bird seed, full of vapid talk and controversy. They ire no more agents of truth than Old Nick is. You don’t-have to inspect each par- ticular straw to see what a haystack 1s.- You can look at it, see its form, understand its purpose, and know all there is in a haystack to know. So in life, the small facts are endless and shed no light. 2 3 One must turn from them to the ten+ dency or policy and make up his mind from that. Such-a discovery is easier than a single fact. One cannct mnke up one’s mind from little things, for they are endless, one suggesting an- sther Infinitely. So a general view that expresses o tenidency provides the opportunity for a conviction. A The civic duty. then, is t» get ac- quainted with the tendeney of a meas- ure of policy, the influence it has on other things and how it uffects the habits of a community. This constant Jowering about particulars never con- structs a real faith. One has to take his stand on an axion or self-evident trutk and then look out and see whether a circumstance is coming to him or going from him. That is the way to get at a tendency which is the necessity habit of good citizenship. It is the small mind that is constarit- 1y looking for peanut facts and rea- sons. It is the larger mind that looks for tendencies, and the field for its exercise includes all national, state | and city affairs. A man who doesn’t gee tendencies there is a poor citizen, and they are legion.—Columbus Jour- nal, < Food Will Win the World.

The story of a regular American girl who rehelled against.family au- tocracy and gave vent to the reckless spirit inherited from a bandit an- cestor, is pictured in “The Wild Strain,” which will be seen in the Grand theatre tonight.

GRAND TUESDAY. “Daughter Angele,”” a Triangle drama at the Grand theatre tomor- row, teems with a quiet, intense. sus- pense -such as is very seldom . ob- tained in pictures of noisy action or melo-dramatic . excitement, It por- trays the treacherous activity of a /pro-German who ‘werks with sub- marines off” the copast, winding up with a terrific surprise.
