The reason [ did not camp perma- nently around the I-don't-know corner of life was because there was not sun- shine enough there for me. I-Don't- Know never yet directed amyone to the path of light, or was able to blaze a trail through the wilderness. Some- how Doubt looked lke a brother Devil to Despair to me, and it seem- ed wise to quit lt.:e permanent com- pany of both of them. There are two ways to keep the cockles of the heart warm and the mind flluminated with hope. One is to cling to the things we do know and to multiply them; and the other is to dream of the good conditions we hope and pray for. The imagination was not given to man for nothing. It is the foundation of ideality, and it points the way along lines 'which are finally found to be practical, which at first seemed to be impracticable. Our ideals are prompt- ers to attainment, and these attain- ments have established the maxim that “Jdeals are the world's masters” for # is great thoughts which produce great mind: . I-do-not-know is a mental halt if we do not strive to find out; and no live man should recognize a mental halt- ing place in this life. It is up to man to make life a campaign of honest and thorough research—to look for evi- dences of truth and of the eternities. The invisible forces are the source of life and power. We can neither see the electric current nor the wind, nor the force behind man. ‘What made man a creator? has helped man to not only exploit this earth, but the universe?

An experiment which will be ‘fol- lowed with much interest throughout the country is the determination of New Orleans, reached at its recent election, to adopt the commission form of govermment . In view of the fact that this is the largest munici- pality in point of population, the cen- sus giving it 839,075, to attempt this change in the conduct of the city's affairs, the result will be of much im- portance to municipal administration students. The change was brought about through the poor results of its existing government. It was in the hands of those who were looking for personal results and hints of corrup- tlon were heard. Tt is, therefore, mo wonder that it piled up a large ma- Jority in favor of the commission form in hopes of a betterment, and yet the problem still rests with themselves, 1t is impossible to conduct city gov- ernment for the best interests of the people unless the right men are elected to office. An important duty rests upon the citizens of New Orleans, those very same ones who rolled up the large majority to see that the commission is made up of men of the proper caliber and the holding of them to strict accountability for the con- duet of civic dffairs, The commis- sion form of government cannot work itself.

SUNDAY MORNING TALK CASTLES IN SPAIN. They represent a form of real es- tate ordinarily ‘quoted low in the world's markets. A practical age dis- counts: the .unsubstantial and hu! small patience with fancies. Dream houses may do for poets or ne'er-do- wells, but not for busy, well-ordered people of affairs. Yet the probability is that most of us, whether consciously or no, are property owners in that dreamy, far- off country beyond the horizon. We all spend more or less time in our Chauteaux de Espagne. Children, es- pecially, in the exercise of their im- aginations habitually invest coming scenes with splendor and people them with fairies. But children are not the only vis- ionaries. Most of us older ‘and wiser folk share their expectancy, There is a good time coming, we assure our- selves, and paint the future in brigh{ colors from a liberal palet. Like those optimistic ones of whom' the prophet Isalah spoke we feel that “Tomorrow shall be as this day and much more abundant.” Whatever the past has had of meagerness or of pain, through a blessed vitality of the human spirit, a better expectation is cherished for days to come: 3 You may reckon hope a very un- substantial diet if you will, but in its power to sustain life there is nothing in the world to equal it. Most of the sons of men live out their days un- der its inspiration. It can provide a bit of blue in the gray sky of the hardest worked and most circum- scribed life, making both the labor and the limitation tolerable. The bearer of the dinner pail who nightly “homeward plods his weary way” to cramped and hired quarters has a vision of his own cottage by- and-by with a table spredd by his own hearthstone.

It is a blessed wrovision of our | human inheritance that we are, when in normal health, optimists and per- suaded by great and unceasing hopes. Moreover this hopeful imaginative mood has a very great practical value. The bullders of air castles have given us gifts beyond our casual thought.
