THE CARROLL COUNTY TIMES VOL. XIV. SPEECH OF H. M REID, OF FAIRBURN GA. Delivered on the Occasion of the Celebration of the Anniversary . of St, John the Baptist at Carrollton Ga. Ladies and Gentleman and Brethren of the Mystic Tie:— There is truth in the doctrine of “the survival of rhe fittest,” and there is pro *f of it in the actual life and continuance of that which is best and purest. Truth is really in destructible. It may be crushed to the earth, but it will rise again, for “the eternal years of God are hers,” and so also will that institution based on truth and founded in cor rect moral principles, having for its object the betterment of mankind and the perpetuity of principles that arc light and just and pure, survive the crumbling Empires and falling States, rise before the wrecks of time and continue to live in serene triumph, exerting wider influence and challenging more profound ad miration ns the world grows older and as cycle after cycle rounds off the periods that go to make up the completed sum of time. And thus Free Masonry stands to-day. In ti e deep mists of the remotest antiqui ty the institution was born, and through the intervening ages it en countered bitter and continuous opposition, but strong in the purity ,iud truth of its principles and ever steadfast and faithful in the pursu ance of its humane and splendid ob I ject, the world at last recognized ' its worth, and itisnow secure in the i certainty of established and final! triumph. 1 may not now discourse at any length upon the objects of Mason ry nor discuss the reasons why it commends itself to all right think ing people. Its achievements known i and seen of all men arc its sufficient and abundant justification, and its continued life and virtual indes tructibility conclusively attest its claim to a basis of truth and the I purity and propriety of the materi als of its upbuilding and niaintens once. The veil of secrecy and ’silence ! behind which it acts, can afford no; just ground of attack, nor furnidi rool »V V -Cl t■/ Jtv » i'ky i*J A V . • 1H silence and secrecy nature performs he l .’ wonders, and while we look I with awe and admiration upon the ' results, we see net the processes.— ! The blooming fields, the fragrant | loveliness, tlje mountain’s solemn : grandeur and the rolling spheres | we behold, are the accomplished ] works, but impenetrable secrecy | and silence hold forever the means . of their production and develop-| ment. And so the human mind, I withdrawn into secrecy and silence i and engaged in introspective medi tation, develops its powers and its genius while we sec only its results in resultant intellectual attainments I and material accomplishment. The character of the work can be best determined by the nature of the production. The pure fountain will not send forth impure waters, and of the tree you judge by its fruits. And by this test Free Ma sonry challenges the criticism oi mankind. The veil of silence am! secrecy will not be raised, but the fruits of the sacred works will con tinue to be seen in tne improvement and elevation of those- who will ac cept their benefit. These virtues are supreme, in Masonry and -must ever be observed. The analogies of Masonry are most apt and beautiful. Truth is best enforced on the consciousness by illustration, and important les sons’are most effectually taught by metaphor, by example and by com- pai isoii. The mosfbeautiful thoughts of the human mind find their most stii kiug expression in comparison witn those things which are beautiful in the material world. Every feeling and thought seeks materialization. The painter’s notion of beauty looks out from the canvas, and the sculptor’s chisel carves into mateiial shape his idea of symetry of form ano poetry of outline. * Degree and character are measured by compar ison and demonstrated by iilnstra tion, and as things material are found useful in certain re’at ions, their lemons of fitness may be ap plied, by anolcgy and comparison, to ideas and truths in the mental and moral world, and the ru»es nor essary to the proper material devel opment, with only the change of application, will pro luce a like inoral development so, that as the operative Masons in following the master workman’s designs upon the trpstlc board may take the rough ashlar and, by the gunge. gavel, plumb, square, level, compass an ! trowel fashion it into the perfect ashlar and lit it in its place in the wads of the temple, so can specul i tive Masonry, following the designs on the trestle board.. laid down by the Master of the universe, take the rough nature of man, and by fortitude, prudence, tempera- ee and justice, fashion it to the pei-fU-t nature and fit it into the structure of society, and as rose the ureat temple, the architectual wonder of the woild, so will arise society alike ]»erfect in its constitution and rela tions And as that temple wa« worthy to hold the ark of the cove nant so may this one be found worthy to hold the spiritual cove nant of the Lord with his peo- As the perfect ashlar was fitted tor its place in the temple so may the perfect man be fitted to dwelt in that house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.— Lhese analogies arc boundless, and to the studion. mind they inculcate, with force and power, great moral lessons and no man may study them even indifferently " and not be thereby elevated and’ bettered. | ion may not contemplate truth without feeling its influence and J on can not entertain pure thoughts without thereby purifying your life. ' / ' And is it not true then that an institution whose principles and tenets are of such a character de serves universal commendation? And is it not a proper desire to hope that its active and useful life may end only with the death of time? Being well assured that in the Eternities the fruits of its good I influence may be seen and felt I . Ihe liehl of speculative Masonry 7 iis exhaustiess. In it the imagina j tion may take its loftiest flights and the fancy may play with ’its most beautiful conceptions. The sciences open their ponder our volumes and invite the philos phic mind to research and investi gation. . The arts unfold their ever entrancing beauties and learning spreads broad its pages that we may grow wiser and better. With in the compass of its scope we may reach the highest possible attain ment. ithin its temple new beauties ate constantly meeting the vision and new truths are constantly reaching the consciousness. Upon its mosaic pavement bor ,i,n..wi u— • - •• ■ ~ ' walk in the very midst of beautiful tiuth, while the blazing star sheds its divine effulgence around and upon us and by the brillance of the gieat and lesser lights we may read its glories and its splendors, feeling the solemn ami holy infiu ‘once of Hiei>- teachings. By its col umns we learn of wisdom, strength and beauty, as well in life as in its structure. We learn its symphon ies, sec its beauties, feci its influ ences, smell its fragrance and taste the rich viands it furnishes for in tellectual and moral culture. We secure the key by which the door can be open to the understanding of speech. We enjoy the elo quence of its rhetoric, argue by the power of its logic and demonstrate J by its mathematics. We listen to the strains of its music and through ; its astronomy we look upon the cel , estial hemisphere, spangled with ; the most magnificent heralds of I God's infinite glory. And in its lesson of plenty we learn content- | ment ami therefore happiness, And now 7 up the toilsome ascent of the winding stairway we rise to j i higher mysteries and reach nearer , to the divine truth which is ever | J the ultimate aim and purpose of all Masonic teaching. When this truth is attained and under the all seeing eye the sands in the hour glass swiftly run and the scythe cuts the brittle thread of life and we go down in death, which but for reve lation is dark and gloomy, we are suddenly revived b the e.zer-green and sprig of faith in the merits of the Lion of the tribe of Judah, which strengthens us, with confi dence ami composure, to look for ward to a blesscu immortality and to believe that by faith, hope and charity, we may climb the ladder which Jacol) saw’, to the starry deck ed heaven, the true canopy of our Masonic lodges. The grandeur, the beiutv, the inspiration of these contemplations are absolutely illimitable. The heavens the canopy, the univeise , the boundary of specubitive Mi- • sonry, and at last its perfect truth , only attainable in the Grand Lodge above in the resplendent efful— • g-'dce of its oi e Supreme Light.

It i s n wise principle divinely implante 1, and from it fIo WS the true doctrine that we are reciprocally each others helpers. None are independent But as m nature there.is an invari able law which requires all things to work in harmony, mutually de pendent, so in society when per fected, there will prevail a similar The snapping of one chord I on nature’s harp sends a tremor of sympathy along its kindred chords, and the snapping of one chord on the great life harp will leave the instrument all jangled out of tune. The failure of one element in nature to perform its function, pro duces a shock and so the failure of one life shocks all life. We may not avoid this reciprocal influence. “No star ever rose and set. with out influence.” “No stream from ' its source flows seaward, how lone ly so’er its course, but some land is gladdened thereby.” “No life can be pure in its purpose and strong in its strife and all life not be purer and stronger thereby.” This principle and inclination teach a solemn and important les son. How best to heed it, how most perfectly to obey it is a ques tion of grave concern. And in no way can its reqirrements be more fully met than in the brotherhood of Free Masonry. Here the doc trine is recognized in its full spirit and the rules arc sought to be em ployed,which must characterize that ideal society when the world shall become perfect. Here are practiced the truly commendable virtues of i brotherly love. Relief and truth and friendship and morality char- i acterize the mystic relations. And in this way the brotherhood < becomes a great family; relieving ; each other, helping each other and s guiding each other by the principles 1 of everlasting truth. No higher aim ( can inspire human effort, no grand- < er mission can employ human encr- 1 gies and no loftier ambition can I move the human heart The performance of such dudes brings an unending consolation ana and the reward for such work faih fully done, is as infinite as the ■°’ I “Y , ’i'ftsiig‘ 4 i>i T Otnerii of the mystic tic, our institution needs no apology and repuires no defence.

Let these virturs shed the radi arce which in their nature is properly theirs. Let flic world feel the power and see the beauty of true Free Mason ry. Let your lives fully reflect the real brilliance of its great lights. And so, when the last fraternal hand grasp is unclasped, when the mosaic pavement witli indented tes sel is exchanged foi the floor of the canopy inlaid with the stars of light, when the blazing star is ex changed for the real presence, and we have ascended the last winding stairway and entered into the inner temple, we may hear from the lips of tlie eternal Grand Master “well done good and faithful servants.” A Colored Man’s Testimony. I was confined to my bed with ' rheumatism for a long time. I could not move nor suffer anyone elso to move a limb, so great was the pain. 1 had several eminent nhysicians to treat me, but I found no permanent relief from their ef forts. I was advised at last to use Swift's Specific, which I did. Af ter taking the third bottle I was able to get up by myself. I con tinued to improve. I gained seve ral pounds in five weeks, and my general health is better than it has been for many years. If it had not been for Swift’s Specific 1 ver ily believe rheumatism would have left me a cripple for life, as my joints were already stiff. I feel very grateful for what this medi cine has done for mo. 1 put it first mid foremost of all the blood piri fiers before the public. Rev. James E. Hilson. Cartersville, Ga. Feb. 10, 1885. Mr. D.

Aii?s Stella Maynard is the only daughter of John Maynard, a wealthy mill owner and lumber dealer of this, town, whore-ides in a handsome large house with spacious grounds near the outskirts of Wyandotte Miss Stella is just 18 years <»f age and only returned from aL Cincinnati board ing school a feviGjnonths ago. She is a decidely hafidsome brunette, with sparkling black eyes and ebon hair. The only objection that could be found to the handsome daughter of the wealthy mill-owner is her size. Miss Stella weighs in the’ vicinity of 275 pounds, and her shoes have to be imported from Chicago, Notwithstandsng this drawback tne young lady did not want for suitors. Half a dozen young men of the town threw themselves at hei feet and incurred the risk of being crushed, but Miss Maynard remained fancy free untill a few weeks ago. One day she entered Simmons’ dry goods store, and her eyes fell upon a tall, pale younji man who parted his hair in the middle and who shouted “Cash 33!” in a lovely tenor voice. Miss Maynard was charmed by the manner in which he ripped off two yards of pongee silk and told the lady it was a remnant or she wouldn t get it so cheap. Next day she called at the store again, and after buying a paper of pins secured an introduction to the good looking clerk. He was Charles Chiystal, the son of a former May or of the town, but whose family had been reduced to poverty by following the races. The intimacy between the young people increased and the quantity of pins and ribbons which-Miss Maynard found it necessary to pur chase WQlllfl stru:'Lr o -x- Maynard mansion, and a nights ago his presence wa° noted by Mr. Maynard. When he had gone the old gentleman inquired: “Stella, who was that wax-works with, his hair parted in the mid dle?” “Wax -works!" repeated the girl. “Why, pa, that was dear Char lie.” Then Mr. Maynurd declared that Charlie’s father had once cheated him in a horse trade, and he inci dently rc’iiarked that if he caught Charlie around there again he would tie him to a fence and back the mule against him. This threat had no effect on the lovers and they continued to meet rlar.destinely. Mr. Chrystal proposed elopement and although Miss Maynard shrank from the thought of leaving her papa in a rage she at length con sented to fly with Charlie. Last night was chosen as the time for departure, and a dark, murky sky favored the plans of the couple. As Mr. Maynard is afraid of burglars the doors of his house are always kept locked and bolted. It became necessary for Miss Stella to slide down from her window, a dangerous experiment, as she slept upon the fourth floor directly over the bedchamber of her father. The brave girl announced her readiness to'try the plan, however, and at midnight §he let a rope down from her window. Mr. Chrystal stood beneath, trembling and wishing that he was well on his way to the minister's. “Catch me if I fall!” whispered Miss Stella, and she began her per ilous descent. Iler feet banged against her fathei's window as she slid past his room and the old man was awakened by the noise. Hastily grabbing a he opened the window andl< oked out. Seeing the rope he supposed a burglar was trying to crawl into the house. ’Aith one sweep of the razor he cut die rope. xA terrible cry of fear rang out on the night air and Miss Maynard, who was still 15-feet above the ground, fell with the force oi a boysc upon Chai les Chrystal. Mr, Jdaynard rushed down md the unfortunate young man was picked up in a I quilt and removed to the house.— At daybreak he was taken to the Oily Hospital, where he lies in a critical condition, not yet having re co vered co n sei o u sness. Miss Maynard is almost heart broken, and is in constant atten dance up >n her crushed sweetheart. Mr. Maynard says if the young man recovers he can marry Miss i Stella without further opposition. The Sceptic Answered. “I don't’ lielieve in a personal God," remarked a sceptic to Rev. R. It. Jones, a Welsh Presbyterian minister, who was a fellow- traveler in a railroad train between Toledo and Cleveland some time ago. “M hy not? asked the minister. “Because I can't sec him. 11 is existence is not demonstrable, capable of proof like facts of sci ence. The minister asked, “Dont you believe that you are alive, and that I am alive?” “5 es,' he answered. “M by do you believe it?” “Because I can see you move.’ “Well,” said the minister, “the locomotive that is drawing this i train also move? —is it alive?’’ “No,” he answered, “but the en gineer who runs it is alive.” “Please tell me,” said the minis ter, “whether the engineer is a part of the machinery or a living person?” “ “He is a living person,” replied the sceptic.' “Now. sir,” retorted the minister, “consistency is a jewel—please tell me why you attribute the move ment of the locomotive to a livino person, but deny that God, who sets rhe universe in motion, is a person?” < j He could not answer. Silenced ’ on this argument, he branched off into another objection against Christianity. “What 1 hate,' said he “in ortho doxy, is this eternal talk about crce 1, creed, creed, thrust upon us everywhere and at all times.’’ “WJiat do you mean by a man’s creed? ’ asked his opponent. “I understand by a creed that which a man believes.” “Well, sir,’ rejoined the minis ter. “yon have just as much creed as 1 have. I believe there is a personal God; you believe the op posite doctrine. 1 believe in the incarnation of the Son of God for our redemption;, you believe the opposite. I believe in the ruined estate of man, you believe the op posite. - What difference u,,.... i wnvvcuiic siuu of Tne question and you believe the other? Now, sir, when we come to that point, you have just as much creed on vonr side as I have on mine: but you want the right to advocate your sentiments, but wish to deny me the right on ir.y side.” He was silenced again. “But,” said the sceptic, resuming the attack by another argument, common at this day, “Christianity is not capable of scientific demon stration. When we take the sci ences, all truths are capable of de monstration by experiments which prove them. You can put them to the test. I take peculiar pleas ure in the study of chemistry. Its propositiions are plain and capable of proof by facts and experiments which appeal to the senses.” •‘You have studied chemistry, have you?” inquired the minister. “Yes, sir,” he answered. “Well,'' resumed the minister,“if you are a student of chemistry you are acquainted with the fact that charcoal, coal and diamond are the same in their molecules—namely carbon. Now can you take a molecule out of the charcoal and put it into the diamond and get a perfect thing of it?” He acknowledged he could not. “ Where, then,” said the minis ter, “is your demonstration in chemistry? But so far as Chris tianity is concerned your objection is not valid, for it is capable of spiritual demonstration. You can try it and find it all that God has represented it to be. God says to all, ‘O, taste and see.’ Try it, and experience will attest its truth.— Millions have put it to the test oj their experience, and have found it ‘the power of God unto salvation to every one that belicveth.” The skeptic then in a somewhat conciliatory spirit, acknowledged that his father and mother were orthodox, Christian people, The minister inquired, ‘'Were • they good people?” >• “Yes, excellent; my father was i an excellent, good man.” : “Well,” inquired the minister, ? “wh«t practical .beneflfc do you get I by changing the religion of your i . parents for scepticism? Does it I make you a better man? Are yon a J better husband to your wife; a l>ut i ter fathei to your children; a better - citizen in the community in which j you live?” . He frankly acknowledged he was pot. “Have you a watch?’’ inquired the minister. “Yes, an excellent timepiece,” he said, taking it out and display ing a fine gold watch. “It keeps time, docs it?” “Yes.” “Well, how would you trade it [ off? M mild it not be for a better timepiece and a more valuable, rather than for an inferior om ?” “5 es, certainly.” : “Here again,” retorted the mm , ister, “you are not acting consis i tentlv with reason; for von have changed the creed of your parents j for one that, by your own confes sion, does not benefit you at all!” lie had no reply to make. i “Now, my brother,” concluded ' the minister, “why do you embrace ’ I infidelity in preference to the faith of your parents? Is it only hecans? you love sin and the first’ principle of Christianity is holiness—oppo j sit ion to sin. Is it not so?” He was speechless. Ihe train stopped and they sep arated. Hie sceptic seeming loth to part on unfriendly terms’ insis ted upon the minister’s repairing to a neighboring dining saloon and enjoying a good supper at his ex pense. God grant that the conversation may result in good, and lead the sceptic to discard the sophisms and delusions of Infidelity, and anchor his soul, drifting without pilot or compass on life's troubled sea, to the Rock of Ages, and finn in 1 Christ ‘a hiding place from the 1 wind and a covert from the temp- d est, as rivers of waters in a dry c place, as the shadow of a great Rock in a weary land’—Cor. Pres byterian. What He Used. “lon say that you was forcibly ejected?” No, sir; I don t say nothing of the kind.” "Didn't I understand you to say that no removed you with vio lence?” I don t know what you under stood, but 1 didn’t say that.” I inferred from wh.it you told me that he used force to compel your exit.” . “I don’t see how you got that into your head, for I didn’t sav nothing of the kind.” 5 on didn t go out of your own “'Then liow did you gvC *' “Why, gosh it all, he kicked me out.” “Well, I want to know if he didn't use violence.” “No, I'll be shrunk if he did.— He used his feot.—Chicago Led ger. Cured, the Boy. All the adult passengers in the waiting room had their attention attracted by his antics. He wanted candy, and he wanted to see the river, and he wanted to go aboard the train, and hu wanted more than any city the size of Detroit could possibly furnish free gratis. His mother hushed him up the best she could, and several times he slapped her face and kicked her shins and got off without even a pinch.. By and by an old man who sat near her, and whose feet the boy had walked on several times, began to get nervous, and turning to bis right hand neighbor, said: Land a’massy! but I’ve cither got to git outer here or spank that boy! He just aches for it, growled the other. He does. lie puts me in mind of my William. I’ve seen William when nothing in the world but a spanking would put good nature into him. I say I will go, shouted the boy at this moment. Please, Johnny, be good, en treated his mother. 1 won't ! Oh, do ! See how they are all I looking at us. I don’t care if they are. With that he walked up to the old man and made a kick, and then the curtain went down on the play. With one twist and two motions he was seized, whirled over a pair of knees, and before he could squawk once the spanking machine began its work. If ever a boy of seven was neatly wound up and the ugly taken out of him inside of sixty seconds the work was no more com plete than in this case.
