GREEKS LOATHE THE TURKS An Incident That Shows How Deep Seated Is the Hatred The ertent to which tfhe Greeiks' hatred of the Turks goes is illustrated in " A Child of the Orient," 'by I)eme tra Vaka." The autihor's Aunt Kalliroe was an old Greek woman, whose feel ings were the most anti-Turk. She had bought a large Greek' homestead, for Which she had no use and which dhe could not at all afford, solely to keep it from falling into the possession of a Turk. The author writes: "The next tpme we visited Aunt Kal liroe she was installed in the Spathary homestead. Just within the front door stood a small table, covered with a white linen tablecloth, such as an ortho dox Greek woman spun 'herself for the purpose of putting on the table where the ikons were laid—a tablecloth al ways washed by the mistress herself in a baain kept apart from the other dishes. On the table lay a Greek ikon, a brass candlestick holding three can dles, all burning, and a brass incense burner, from which a column of blue smoke was rising, filling t'he house wit'h the odor of incense. " 'Why. it isn't Easter, and it isn't Christmas!' I cried. 'lt isn't even a great saint's day. Why are you 'burn ing the candles and the incense, great aunt?' " 'They have been burning since-I moved into this house, and frhev shall burn for thrice fortv davs, to cleanse it | from Turkish pollution. 'But since Ba'kv Pasha never bought it and never lived i„ it'— I ' • that is enough to pollute a Christian I home.

"Wbm 1 «u a child • • • whan I bet-am* a men."—l Cor xllt, tl. I have read tiint when whales were Retting scarce folks used to wonder What the world would do for liglit. You know what happened. Kerosene rame in and made a brighter light than the whale oil. The people then won dered if the oil wells should fail what the world would do for arttflctnl light. Gas entne In. and the kerosene lamp went to the scrap heap. Then enuie electricity, and we who have the prl\l lege of touching a button wonder how folks fool with uiatt ties nn d gas. The Bible says of the future. "They need no cnudles. neither light of the suu, for the Ixird glveth them light." That IK progression toward the light. It isn't a sign of progress and growth gluiply to acquire and henp tip things. The usual test of a man's value Is, How much has he acquired? It Isn't the New Tes taxnent test. By that the disciples were mighty poor and Christ didn't "get on" at all. The mirest test of progress may be the opposite. What has he outgrown! As children grow Into manhood and womanhood they throw away the helps and toys of childhood. Paul said he outgrew child tsh speaking, undei-standing. thinking CHildieh Speaking. It la interesting to hear men talli of their childhood. I've met men of whom It was difficult to conceive they were ever bo.va; that they ran barefoot, spun tops, played marbles, ran, Jump ed, wrestled; that they were ever prankish. Jocular, fun loving. Were they always austere, dignified, wise? Paul draws back the curtain, and we see his childhood In Tarsus. He re members how he talked. Nothing wrong with child talk. 1 know a greet Judge who used to listen drowsily to lenrued lawyers. At the dot of ad Journment hour he would doff his gown, mutter "the fools." whiz ofT to a suburb where his grandchildren talk ed of "tick tocks," "bow wows," "moo cows" and "choo choos," names that were imitations of sounds and meant moVe than legal terms. Deliver us from childhood of extraordinary pre cocity, little folks who lecture before college faculties on the fourth ditnen slon or speak five languages before they are six. But It would be a worse calamity to have a grown man talk of childhood tilings in the language of childhood. Folks would tap their fore heads slgnlflcnntly, "He is childish." When old age brings enfeeblement. of faculties we say of n man's dri7el that, he is In second childhood. There is an ocean of difference, however, between being childish and childlike. Childish In Understanding. Japanese have the art of dwarfing trees and shrubbery; Chinese women dwarfed their children's feet; European women hare dwarfed their waists. I've seen men dwarfing their souls, but it is also pitiful to see men dwarfing their mentality. 1 had a church mem ber whose little child uever grew men tally or physically. Just lay there a mass of human clay. Then God the merciful took it. Nearly every day i pass a home for backward boys. I stop to chat for a moment, but I al ways come away with a heavy heart. I meet lots of backward grown folks. I hear their prejudice against men who are of a different race, nationality or religion. Men there are who pride themselves on great national questions —financial, philosophical, literary- but speak to them of (Jod and great spii itual and they afe veritable ignoramuses. The fresh gleam of God's world is in the sky, but their faces are turned earthward. Women with the glorious possibility of womanhood, their understanding of diaphanous dress, animal dances and skilful art of idling Is great, but in church, mother hood and domestic life-—three
