SHEAN OPTICIAN 1123 0 Sr, YELLOW FRONT YOUR PATRONAGE S0UC1TED "How did you enjoy your trip to Kansas?" "How did you like the con vention?" "You had a Rood time at Kansas, I'll bet!" or the like were the questions and greetings t lint were showered upon one individual when he came back from Kansas City on the morning of the 5th of January last. Truth to say it was no enjoyment or good time either; it was an experience. If an enjoyment it was certainly of the very highest order. After his pas sage through the different countries of the world, the writer had spent good three months at a stretch in Lin coln with its bad roads, frequently made worse by the thawing of the snow; he was growing tired of the same university campus, the same passing greetings of friends and the sinic stony, indifference of equally well known faces! And he was mighty glad when the invitation came. There was a pretty big crowd at the M. I depot, and as soon as the dele gates boarded the train and it hard hardly started, the spirit of the con vention began to be felt amongst the delegates. Professor Drummond made a short but inspiring speech. Kind ness and fellowship were at an over flowing. The next morning was rather chilly and the delegates had a busy morning in registration, and in finding out their allotted quarters. The first session of the convention was Interesting, but not very much impressive. On the New Year's day there were some stir ring addresses. Amongst those besides Mott's, were the appeals of a Chinese and a Japanese gentlemen. Mr. Harte was brief, but anyone who went to India could not miss the sympa thetic tone wrung out of Ills heart. The Nebraska state delegation con sisted of more than one hundred men and women and Mr. Slmotuls headed the Nebraska party. On the 2nd this large party dined at Williams' lunch after the morning session, and they were photographed. In the evening an invitation from a most unexpected quarter came, and the writer had to start out with Mr. Ewing almost ignor ant about where lie was going. It was, however, under the auspices of the Y W C. A. that he was entertained by a most hearty group of North American Indian ladies and gentlemen and in spite of the stories heard by him in India of the queer nature and tendencies of these people they seemed to be more kind, courteous, social and sincere than many people of so-called high breeding and dazzling civilization. Not only they did not hurt him in any way, but they have made a very agreeable and lasting impression upon his mind. Another Invitation from an altogeth er unknown quarter waited on him the next evening. It was from a young lady who had sent out her automobile to fetch her guest. Once seated in the auto he knew not whither It pro ceeded. It took long and It seemed that KniiBas City was left behind, but presently the auto entered Into the portico of a garden house and the hostess appeared as soon as the boll was rung. She had come with the talked nnd talked and talked about the poet and his poetry and was lost in thorn. The "Gardener" and "Gitan jall" she had committed to memory, and had given them away to friends to buy new ones again. She had another guest from India, whom sho asked what he had come to study In Amer ica, and being told that It was philos ophy, she said: "Fhat India, to study philosophy here!" Hryan addressed the audience the same evening and he talked In n com mon sense way, which, however, is an uncommon power In a political lender. Nebraska did not. however, miss the opportunity to give him her special de votion on the occasion. The last session of the convention was the most memorable one. When the volunteers, men and women stood up In prayer, singled out from the rest of the audience, the writer met the countenance of a young lady standing by ills side--glowing all in divine love and faith, her eyes be speaking the true Christian resigna tion. After prayer her moistened eye lashes and flushed face might have been a fit model for Raphael's pencil j and would have been worth ten thou sand sermons preached and to be preached in foreign non-C'hristian count rl's, for she was so very much Christ-like the while that any one who runs might read it. The Hindu honors and appreciates this idealism and has deep fath In its efficacy. J. P. BANERJI.
