BALLARD STAR AGRNOV—010) Ballard av Sunset, Mallard — RVERNTT STAR AGENCY-T. A. King, 1410 Pavific Ave Sunset om ‘Ope cont per copy OF twenty-five conte per nromtl Bwered by malt or car Bntered at the Postoffice at Seattia, Washington, as second-elane matter \ 3 for the purpose of ¢ to surface lines for passenger transportation, and by improv ing these surface lines in proportion to the increase of popu-| lation, we will be able to get along for several years to come i The freight problem is different. Seattle is so physically t constituted that all the hauling and teaming must follow along} Certain lines of least grade resistance. The result is conges tion, delay and increased expense to seller and consumer These conditions are making themselves felt today, In addi tion to these, there is the wear and tear on the streets to be Considered, which runs annually into a large sum, all of which Comes out of the property owners’ pockets With all the heavy freight moving underground, the sur- @nd street cars. With the heavily loaded teams absent, the tess danger of accident. Subterranean travel is not entirely a delight, judging from the experience of the New York commuters. After the novelty of the sensation wears away, it is succeeded by considerable physical discomfort incident to climbing and descending stair Ways, fighting turnstiles and submitting to all the rules and F fegulations that are found necessary for public safety. As long @8 surface lines can be maintained, they are desirable for pas- Senger transportation, but the sooner we can get the freight P @aderground, the better, and the sooner we do this, the longer We will be able to ride back and forth on the top of the earth, IN THE SWEAT OF THY FACE The world is essentially lazy. xi would never have succeeded in getting Adam to work if he had not first driven him out of Eden, where things grew DO! themselves. And even then it was necessary to station two angels with flaming swords to guard the place. “In the sweat of thy face shalt thou cat bread.” Deep back in the human heart lies the desire for case, and it is the exceptional man who can systematically do hi: Dest when the struggle for bread is removed. If you would | etipple your rival, give him your own fortune, It will prove | a narcotic to him and a stimulant to you. today we take a half holiday. 4 We crave success, but we prefer to wait until tomorrow § to begin its achievement. to those who make it a study. A great sermon is preached or a great book produced, and could do that work. The world doesn’t know me for what am.” And so we comfort ourselves with notions of unachieved itness, but we wait for a proper mood beiore beginning the “In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread.” But bread must be eaten today, and so the big work of the life goes on. The earth is subdued, the forces of nature ‘Se belted to industry, and humanity rises slowly’ into God- Hikeness. The curse pronounced upon the race back in the garden has revealed itself a prophecy and a blessing. When God gave man dominion over the earth he gave him dominion, not only over the beasts of the field and his own fife, but in a large measure over the lives of his fellowmen The attempt to shirk this responsibility echoes back to us through the ages: “Am I my brother's keeper?” And God held Cain responsible When a mother is forced to leave her children alone at home, or to the influence of the streets, while she goes out in quest of bread, labor has become a curse When children are taken from school and sent into fac tories, mines, cotton mills and stores, labor has be When homan beings are made as beasts of bu Strain of long hours, the monotony of se horrors of sweated industries, labor has become a curse Whenever toil lays its heavy hand on the sick or the aged Whenever any human life is deadened instead of stimulated, fs degraded instead pi ennobled, labor has become a curse And God will hold us responsible ee a It cost C.
