PIG IN 1 DECREASED SOOTH The Manufacturers’ Record _ Gives Three Conditions to Restore Increase. JACOB HAAS. d. i. MacIntyre, haas & MacIntyre, FIRE, MARINE AND CASDALTY INSURANCE 307-311 CENTURY BUILDING. Baltimore, Md„ Aug. The great Increase In pig Iron production In the South during the past twenty years has caused many persons to overlook the fact that other sections of tha country : have shown vastly greater Increases during the present year. In discussing , this, this week's Issue of The Manufac furors' Record saye: "While the Bouth produced In 1154 almost exactly 12 per cent of the Amer ican total. In 1180 her production had fallen to barely over 8 per cent. From this year on a relatively rapid Increase In Southern output carried the per- centage to 18 In 1881, to 18 8-4, In 1888, and finally to a maximum of 18.1 per cent In 1186. Since 1186, though the Southern output has Increased quite regularly, the Increase Is small com pared with that shown by other sec tions. "The result Is that the Boutbern out. put Is steadily becoming of lest relative Importance, the percentage having steadily fallen off until during the flrat half of 1807 It was barely over 10 1-2 per cent. "Three conditions must be observed , to restore Increase. "First. The labor supply must be In creased and Ite quality Improved. "Second. Development work In the mines should be carried on during pe riods of depression, ad that the mine* can respond quickly to any suddenly Increase demands. "Third. The output of steel-making iron should be Increased and provision should be made not only for their con version Into ateel, but for their local manufacture Into finished products." TO OPEN SCHOOLS A third course at the Olrle' High School, which will be the same as the literary with the exception that Latin will fill the place of French, la the pro posal of Mlsa Sergeant, the principal, : mad* to the board of education at Ita regular monthly meeting Thursday aft ernoon.

The event always proves him mistaken; but the persistence of the search reveals how keen Is the present-day pursuit of a social Canaan. It Is frankly admitted that human society has not yet ar rived, at Its goal; some pessimists even question whether It Is really Journey ing there or whether It Is slipping back to an Egypt of oppression. Undoubt edly we are on the move and facing In the right direction. A close analogue to the conditions of today Is to bs found In tha current Sunday school lea son of Israel's Journey to Canaan. The underlying assumption la that there are better things ahead of us. That Is the .optimism taught by these pessimistic JeWa of old. Progress la the divine law for all creation. Like Israel, society and Individuals may rest for instruction and needful disciplin ing, but the better estate may be reach ed only by Journeying*. The day'* spirit of "stand-pat"-lsm Is pernicious where there Is life there Is growth Change Is not decay: stagnation Is. The day of doom has come for any Institu tion or character that Is satisfied with Itself. Where the Bank Clerk) Faltered. That Is the eplrit which made the dead nations of the Orient; China has had to be permeated by a new spirit of discontent before her well-wishers could have any grounds for hope for her future. Israel could not abide at Sinai, any more than g boy can abide under the shelter of his parents’ roof and protection and still become a man. Going up .must always be preceded by a giving up. There was q young bank clerk In a Northern Ohio city who felt that he was lit for larger things than a mere bank clerkship. He grumbled and fretted over his hard lot, for he wae sure that he, like others, could make a success of an Independent undertaking. One day hla opportunity came; a friend of fered to set him up In buelnese. Then fear b?gan to bite at hla heart. What If he should fail? Then he would not even have hla clerkship. After nerve racking days and nights of decision, the young man Anally concluded that he dared not take the risk. He's still' a bank clerk. He Is a type of hesitant 'srael, fearful of new and untried way* ind willing to suffer the evlts of Ignoble urrender to uncongenial conditions, athsr than to dare the wlldernei False Lights and Tru*. A plain truth about Israel, which lever sugar-coated Ita religion. Is that etiovah was recognised as the prime saentlal of Its life. The fact of God raa the grand assumption upon which II the events of the pilgrimage were ased. Jehovah was frankly admitted Ever In the midst Here Is a truth for the times. Amid Success consists only way. Without trying We may reach the better our desire only by following ance. Nowhere but In hla ring tht . It la a sorry plight to be caught In —.—-— —— - guide. did not give le to speak Chinese, they were It waa nearing midnight and It dormant hostility to foreigner*. Its nar row, many-angled streets and Ita vast extent, la not a pleasant placa In which to be lost Hither and thither the coolies went, Inquiring In one place and than In another, each time starting off with a semblance of confidence. Seeing hopeless helplessness, I was at last kbit to direct them to Drum Tower, which was known rerritory to me. But I learned then nnd. at other times In lands where English la not spoken, that a guide la an Important factor In life. Thl* cry for guidance, In the wide region of the spirit. Is almost universal. Out of It sprang Newman's beautiful hymn, "Lead, kindly Light." One of the precious truths ot the Christian religion Is that, like Israel In the wilderness, the trustful soul may have guidance, clear, direct, ex pllclt. After leading those stumbllni Israelites Into the Promised Land, Got did not straightway forget the art of guidance. He will lead In a plain path every perplexed disciple who la willing to follow. Once he led h|a children In the mass; now he leads them one by one. Society progresses by the advance of Individuals. As each person fol low* hla gleam, he bear* forward with him the welfare of the race. They who rise, lift; they who advance, lead. "No life can be pure In Its purpose and strong in Its strife, and all Ufa not be purer and stronger thereby." Tha Arab and tha Hebrews, The appeal to the Imagination made by the spectacle of ihat vast horde of Hebrews on the march la worth con sidering. It was vastly different from travel today. There was not a wheel of traffic In all the equipment; every thing went afoot. Camp had to be broken and household goods carried. While at this very moment there are more people traveling than In the great anabasis from Sinai, yet they are all personally conducted by civilisation. Today one may go around the world without discomfort, and even with more luxurtousness than the ordinary man lives at home. Then, a Journey of a hundred mile* was a serious un dertaklng. Into the story cornea a new figure, a picturesque Arab, a free son of the desert—Hobab, the brother-in-law of Moses. This man knew the wilderness as a commercial traveler know* his railway guide. Not hla the awkward, cumbersome ways of this horde of freed slaves, who had not yet learned to be good muter* of themselves. He and hla household Journeyed freely about the desert, with all the confi dence and celerity of the born nomad.. To this Interesting character Moses made a famous Invitation—"Coma thou with us, and we will do thee good.” That la what the Cho*en Peoples to day are saying to all races. That I* what the Church Is saying to the world. Amplified, the message of Moses ran— and the analogy between this and the church's message to the world Is clear —"Come give up this futile, hand-to- mouth, happy-go-lucky, llfe-for-the- moment existence of the desert. Take youh place, aa befits your manhood and capacities, at the very springs of et*r nal and universal current*. Enjoy i deeper, more meaningful, more pur poseful life for yourself, and let your character count In the making of his tory. Thl* new nation Is going to shape the world's destiny. Come, and we will do-you good.” Tha Appeal to the Heroic, That offer did not move Hobab. Somehow—and herein we trace the lat ent noollltjft of the race—the appeal to aelf-Interett does not touch the depth* of human nature, despite the proverb that "self Interest Is the flret law of life.” Men do their best when their heroism, self-denial and chivalry are appealed to. Moset reached Hobab by touching thl* diviner strain In hi* na ture. The second request was. "Come with us. for you can do us good. \V* need you; you can be to u* instead of eyes You know how to camp In the wlldemets. You can give Just the sort of help that we require.” To that request, w* Infer from later passages. Hobab responded. He had a man’* Instinctive desire to be useful. And the great mass of men outside the church today, who have no Inclination to ornament church services or length en church rolls, will hear a ringing in vitation to unite with the church la SEMI-ANNUAL STATEMENT For the six months ending June 30, 1907, of the condition of the LUMBER MUTUAL EIRE INSURANCE C0„ of Boston Massachusetts, Organised under the laws of the state of Massachusetts, made to the gov ernor of the state of Georgia, In pursuance to the laws ot said state.
