AM Hh MY BROTHER'S KEEPER?”
. By Evelyn L. York
5 science of today has torn the
pwoverbs of the ‘Bible all to pieces. It
as taken the first Book and torn it
apart. © While science was taking the
rst book, it came to the question of
ain, “Am I My Brother's Keeper?”
Cain, unable to sed his brother's ace
cepted, more so, by God than his own,
‘became overcome by jealousy and hate.
In ‘his bling anger he slew Abel. Then,
‘is recorded in the Bible, when God
questioned ‘him as to the whereabouts
his brother, he evaded the answe:
‘wy king, “am I My Brother's Keep-
ox? ’
We know how a single word will
urn. Thus it was with Cain. When
“Where is . . . thy bro-
his burden of sin, he
; : he was asked,
ee ther?” Uuder
: was unable to answer ‘and thus was
murder bhought into the world.
ES On little knew what question he
3 ‘was asking. All he thought of was to
: evade God's question and flee from his
tace. . “Am 1 My Brother's Keeper?”
Ch what a question! I will answer
wy illustratien.
x At the time of slavery how little was
thought of the toil and suffering of
the negro. What a help it would have
been if the question had been asked
A and answered, “Am I My Brother's
a Keeper? No man who considered
everyone his brother would allow any
‘of his brothers to suffer such un-
speakable misery. Surely people are
ps not heartless enough to allow any
person to go through such things.
This same anower would again he
iltustrated by the following:
At the time of the Spanish-Ameri-
can War, we were too busy to attend
to what Cuba had to say. Our people
§
for the oppressed. If it had been
‘thought of a little sooner, things might
have progressed a little faster. So
again there rings the cry, “Am I My
Brother's Keeper?!
Perhaps a few of you remember
: when they were fighting for pure milk
for the babies of the Fast Side. What
‘cared the people of the West Side
what kind of milk the people of the
East Side got? The struggle was won.
Not by the support of anyone, but by
_thel persistence of the question, “Am 1
. My Brother's Keeper?”
‘What about Christ you may ask.

CHARACTER SKETCH
(Churchill’s “The Crisis”)
VIRGINIA CARVEL
By Forma L. Raskin
Virginia Carvel was considered one
of the most beautiful girls in St
Louis . and
very haughty in appearance, because
of her aristocratic un bringing - and
culture, at heart, there never was a
kinder nor more sympathetic girl. It
was impossible to make her weaken
in opinion, until circumstances, liter-
ally speaking, practically killed ‘her.
This is shown clearly in her generous
and present attitude toward Stephen
Brace. Always having been. catered
to, when defled, rose imrmediately in
revolt and not only held it against the
person to whom it belonged, but every
one suffered. as is shown in her atti.
tude toward Miss Puss Russel and
Anne Brinsmade on account of Ste-
phen Brace. If we consider deeply we
find Virginia to be a very strong char-
acter, whether in sorrow, happiness ov
despair. Very few people, after hold-
cerned with the North could place
aside all previous grievances and re-
tail their mode of behavior of times
before a crisis. Virginia did this.
Nothing could have held her back
from aiding Mrs. Brace in’ carring for
the Union soldier.
War has various effects on every 'n-
dividual. It somettmes brings forth
from a person all the hatred that has
been stored away for years and leaves
him with a clear, but very often a de-
preseing conscience, On the other
hand, war brings forth kindness, sym-
pathy. Starvation, taking of lives, de-
vastation, all of these and to soften
the heart of one who is cruel or just
naturally hard-hearted. The Civvil
War was a blessing for Virginia. No
doubt, you will say, can such a scour-
age be a blessing? In this case yes.
It brought forth and caused to bloown’
the person; the real Virginia Carvel,
in place of a model in a shew window
to be admired.
