CHARLOTTE, NO. 39-1923 WITH THE HIGH SCHOOL CLASSICS 9iiiiu:>!uniiii.iiiiuuiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiiuiiiiiiiiiuiiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiuiiiiiiii^ By MARGARET BOYD (? by Margaret Boyd.) "The seeming truth which cunning times put on To entrap the wisest." ? The Merchant of Venice. Little evil is done in the world by obvious untruth; the danger is from untruth that passes for truth. People do not willingly believe a lie. Early In ! life children ask of tales told them, "Is It true?" They continue to ask the same thing all their lives. ' It is not, however, always easy to learn what is true. Some of the an cients said truth lived at the top of a j very steep mountain;: others said she lived at the bottom of a well. No matter which dwelling place was ascribed to her, all acknowledge that It was difficult to catch a glimpse of her. Whether we climb to truth by [ hard mental labor or dig for truth j among the thoughts of other men, truth : will never be found without work und j inconvenience. Emerson suid: "God offers to every 1 , mind Its choice between truth and re- ; pose. Take which you please, you can j never have both. Between these, as a | pendulum, man oscillates ever. He in whom the love of repose predominates ' j will accept the first creed, the first j philosophy, the first political party he < meets, most likely his father's. He gets j nest, commodity and reputation ; but j he shuts the door of truth. He in whom ! the love of truth predominates sub- j j inits to the inconvenience of suspense j nnd imperfect opinions." When we look about us the earth | seems flat. Hills and mountains seem | to rest upon it as objects on a table. For centuries the wisest men believed the earth was flat and so taught their pupils. The seeming truth of the world's shape was disproved less than five centuries ago. When the truth of , a simple physical fact, such as the 1 earth's shape, was so hard to come at, It is small wonder that the truth of facts involving human actions and the truth of ideas and opinions Is so dif ficult to learn. j We are wont to look upon history as truth; but Carlyle> defined history as "a distillation of mvcor," and Na poleon defined It as "a fable agreed upon." While Voltaire, writing upon | one phase of history, pointed out : "So j : many hidden causes are associated at { j times with the apparent cause, so | many unknown springs may be at i work In the persecution of a man that j It is impossible, centuries afterward, i jto1 discover the hidden source of the misfortune, even of distinguished men." 0 ,1 i ? ? ? ; . "This Is the forest primeval." ? Evangeline. I We have few places where we can see forest primeval ; but many places where we can see forest primeval In the making ? for a primeval forest Is not, as its name jnight seem to indi cate, an original growth. It Is the final step In a forest progression, an ultimate forest that will stand until cut by man or razed by an ice sheet ! or fired by lightning. The early ex- j periments in white pine reforestation failed because the experimenters failed ; to treat white pine as the final step In , an orderly progression. Take the burned-over slashings of j ouf northland, for example. There j the aspen and birch seed in and cover the scarred ground within a decade. ' The inquisitive will observe that al most from the beginning a war is j waged between these two lovely, graceful species. Both cast a deli cate fretwork of shade, but the shade of the birch is a bit the denser. Where a birch spreads a twig above a twig of aspen, the latter is starved for sun light, and It is but a matter of a couple of decades until the aspen is crowded out. Meanwhile seedlings of the maple and other denser-shaded de ciduous trees are beginning to crowd the birch. While the birch Is being choked out, the plhe and hemlock seed In and begin to dispute place with the vlctoc. The ultimate forest differs in the species that make it up in different regions, j In one place it will be pine and hemlock ; in another redwood ; in another, oak; and so on. In Finland's epic, the Kalevala, we have a most interesting picture, of the beginning of forests and of the growth of a forest primeval. Satnpsa Peller voinin sowed the trees: "On the hills he sowed the pine trees, On the knolls he sowed the fir trees. And in sandy places heather; Leafy saplings in the valleys. In the dales he sowed the birch trees. In the loose earth sowed the alders Where the ground was damp the cher ries. Likewise in the marshes, sallows. Rowan trees In holy places. Willows In the fenny regions. Juniper in stony districts, Oaks upon the banks of rivers." All the seed grew and flourished except that of the oak. The acorn would not sprout until conditions wera especially prepared for it. Finally, however, it sent up a forest primeval, r growth so tall and dense that: 'In their course the cloudL It hindered, And the driving clouds Impeded. And it hid the shining sunlight, 4n4 tha *1 earn in* of tha moonlight.* L . Chicago Gets Coffee, Cargo Direct From Brazil wt Steamship Deloa W.

EARNS HIS NICKNAME Jim Entirely oblivious to everything afyout them. Secretary o{ War Jolin W. Weeks and Secretary of the Treasury Andrew W. Mellon, following the mak ing of a formal picture of President Cooiidge's cabinet, just, remained seated on tlie White House lawn where they held what seemed to be a serious con ference. It is seldom that two cabinet members are caught so entirely un Hwafea in a photograph. Captured Their Red Guards and Fled n mm U After being held in Siberia by representatives of the Soviet government for six weeks, the American-owned gas schooner Iskum arrived at Nome, Alaska, with the two Red guards who had been placed aboard to watch the crew. The government charged the American traders with entering Siberia without proper clearance. After much dickering, the crew finally captured the Ked guards and made for Nome. Tills photograph was taken on board the Iskum.

For some time past, it seems. work men near Bisbee, in Arizona, have been trying a new venture in coppei raining. Instead of following tin- pre scribed method of hollowing out a mountain and using shaits and tun nels, they dig it down with seam shovels and cart it away. one can form some idea of the magniture of the task when he learns that if will take more than sixteen years tn cojii plete it, that during the process ap proximately 25,000,0(10 tons of copper ore will be carted away, anil that from it something like a billion pounds of Copper will be extrac ted. During the five years the work has been carried on five million ruhic yards or more of material have been taken from the mountain, though that amount does not represent pure ore. As fast as the material is duir it Is hauled over a fifteen-mile railway t'i smelters and mills, where it is treated. An engineer humorously remarks that when the huge pile is gone there will be room for the town !.?? grow. For Business Reasons. "Smile!" commanded tin- photon rapher. "You look too mournful."
