BIG LITTLE MEN
Chief Justice Taft once remarked
when he was president. "It's surpris
ing how often you hear people say
'He's little, but he can lick his weight
in wildcats!' or 'He's little but he's
loud!' I have noticed the popular
impression that shortness of stature
frequently goes with unusual ability.
also notice that little men are
great keep-at-it fellows. They de
velop an inexhaustible energy."
Socrates was short of stature. Na
poleon was, too. So was St. Paul.
Marcus Loew, the theatre magnate.
is aoout nve ana a nan ieet iau.
Charles P. Steinmetz, who wrought
miracles with electricity until the
day of his death, was not much over
four feet.
The little man, when he talks
about his size, almost invariably
brags about it. It is as if he had
forced himself to take pride in it.
But he will brush his hair pompa
dour or wear high-heeled shoes to
make himself look taller. His cam
ouflage in dress is a key to his char
acter. He has become able ana in
dustrious because of his constant
desire to show the world that, in
spite of his physical littleness, he is
in fact one of the biggest men in
town.
When he was a boy, his play
mates called him runt ana
'shorty." In college he was informed
he was too light to make the foot
ball team. He had to fight with su
perhuman ferocity to keep the big
boys from licking him. In his heart
he has said: "I'll show 'em I'm as
powerful as they are!"
Consequently, he goes into life with
the will to excel highly developed
and with a fighting temperament
which is often irresistible.
When Donald MacMillan, the arc
tic explorer, assembled his crew for
his trip into polar regions last win-
er, he announced that he would take
with him only little men because
hey can endure more than the big
fellows." He understood that the lit
tle fellows, having learned to over
come tne nanuicap oi email siaiure
since infancy, would go valiantly and
ictoriously against all other ob
stacles.
The little man's psychology is an
inspiration to the rest of the world.
In beatmg his littleness he demon-!
strates that every man has in him the
tuff wherewith to overcome any per
sonal handicap or weakness. .
: :o:
LIKABLE
Young John Coolidge, son of the
president, had a fight the other day.
It was perfectly legitimate, with no
hard feelings; he boxed another stu
dent at Amherst college in a tour
nament. v He gives evidence of sportsmanship
in expressing a wish to meet his op
ponent again. He conducted himself
well in the ring, too; fought hard,
got slightly the worst of it, but ac
quitted himself with credit.
He seems to be a mightly likeable
boy. And that's more to his credit
than it is in the case of the average
lad, for it would be very easy for a
youngster in his position to get aw
fully spoiled and conceited.

TASK FOE THE CHURCHES
In an easter city several clergymen
have pledged themselves to the elim
ination of the controversial issues
in religious teaching. They are plan
ning the inauguration of a concert
ed campaign for the moral training
of boys and girls. In this way they
expect not only to improve and re
inforce the instruction in right living
given the youth of their own con
stituencies but also to reach out in an
organized way to influence the many
who are growing up without spiritual
guidance.
This systematic movement ought
to spread until it becomes national.
No church can be truly effective with
out a creed, and the principles-of
that creed no doubt should be ex
pounded at suitable times and sea
sons. But so long as there is var
iety in human thought and expres
sion there wil continue to be differ
ences in religious convictions. Of
paramount importance, however, is
the fact that in the vast realm of
human conduct the various religious
beliefs are a unit on the essentials
cf morality and righteousness.
While only 50,000,000 of this na
tion's population of 110,000,000 are
actual church members, the official
estimates of church authorities place
the church constituency, includin
not only members but also all those
who are reached by the church in
one way or another, at 90,000,000 to
100,000,000. The 200,000 dif
ferent churches influencing this con
stituency stand together against dis
honesty, lying, irreverance, intem
perance of every sort and all the sins
classified in the decologue, and for the
fatherhood of God, the brotherhood
of man and the practice of the Gold
en Rule.
If the full pressure of that united
strength were brought to bear
against the evils of the time, an era
of righteousness would be ushered
in. This common task of the church
es calls for intelligent, systematic, co
operative effort. If the country's
moral forces were efficiently organ
ized the results of their helpful
teachings would be wonderful.
It would be well for the churches
to consider whether in entering upon
the work of framing and enforcing
laws to regulate human conduct they
have departed in some degree from
their true province of moral teaching
and spiritual leadership and, if so,
whether that departure has tended in
any degree to relax their hold upon
the minds and hearts of the people
whom they so earnestly desire to d
rect into right courses.
