Laborers and Their Aims. “Life is made interesting by un- gertainty,” said Rev. John L. Davis in speaking on the subjeet, “What Makes a Life Significant?"” He went ‘on. to say that dangers are needed to make .a life worth whiie. People must experience joy and sorrow, suc- cess and failure. However, according to the speak- er, the life of some day laborers though often crowded with danger, is not interesting, It is barren and dull, The men do not take an interest in thelr work. They are just anxious to get their money on Saturday night, so _they may get ‘“a cup of coffee, a night’s lodging, a glass of beer or the privilege of gambling.” " ‘Their lives are hard because they are striving for a low ideal, he sald. It is not the filth and dirt of life that . make it barren and dull. Firemen and engineers have plenty of fiith and gt, ‘but their lives are interesting. he soldiers in the trenches 'of France were surrounded by all sorts _of fiith and vermin, but their lives jére not barren and dull. They had : a high ideal, said Rev. Dr. Davis. They were striving to free the world of autocracy. .. In the case of the laborers there is ‘nothing in their lives but fith and dirt. ~All they want is their glass of beer or their night's lodging, he said. . ““We don't build monuments to peo- ple on such a low plane,” asserted the Wednesday Morning at 9 o’Clock Our Annual Sweeping Clearance Sale to Make Room for Januéry Stock T akinj.
