NEITHER SHALL I
CONDEMN THEE j
Never since Mother Eve is j
reported to have developed a
taste for apples has there been
,any scarcity of weak women. '
And we might also add that
never since that unfortunate
period in human history has
there been any scarcity of self
righteous men.
Now the thought has always
somehow haunted our brain
that humanity has never quite
gotten the straight of that epi
sode. From our intimate know
ledge of masculine human na
ture in general we are convinc
ed that Father Adam was per
fectly capable of the ungentle
manly action attributed to him.
But from that knowledge we
also believe he was capable of
?till greater iniquity—even that
of causing the woman to bear
not only her own sin, but his
sin as well.
Now if Adam had been just
the right sort of man how dif
ferent his action would have
been. We can imagine him, had
he had the proper regard for
the woman whom his Maker
had given him, when he dis
covered the dire consequences
of their action, saying to his
Lord, “I ate the fruit, and also
did cause the woman to eat.”
But did he do this? No. That
w as his golden opportunity but
he let it pass. He did just as his
sons have been doing ever
. since that fatal day—shifted
s the sin to the shoulders of the
vW’oman.
And this brings us again to
our statement that Adam must

have been capable of even
greater iniquity than was at
tributed to him—even that of
instigating t he disobedience
and then lying out of it. We
have nothing to back up our
belief but the inherent treach
ery of the male creature in his
dealings with the weaker sex.
But now from out the world
old tragedy of the sexes shines
a star of particular brightness.
An unfaithful wife is the cause
pf a murder and a suicide. The
betrayed husband, against his
will, is finally convinced of her
guilt, and the world eagerly
awaits some drastic action in
retaliation. But the world is
woefully disappointed. What is
it he says, “She is my wife, and
I will stand by her as long as
life lasts.”
And the world is staggered,
[t had expected something sen
sational and it had gotten it
with a vengeance.
And through the centuries,
torn far-off Palestine, w'e seem
:o catch the echo of a voice of
wonderful compassion, and
?aintly there comes to our ears
;he words; “Neither do I con
iemn thee; go, and sin no
nore.”

WHAT SOME BOYS
DESIRE TO LEARN
According to the idea of
nany of the rising generation
i young man should learn to
ie, to flirt, to cheat, to swear,
o drink, to play billiards, to
iwagger in the streets, to live
vithout work, to ogle every
)retty girl he meets, to treat
lis elders with respect, to talk
oud in the presence of others,
o put on style wnether he can
ifford it or not, to boast of the
eminine conquestshehasmade,
o have every slang term on his
ongue’s end, to gossip with his
'hums about his lady acquain
ances, to attract all the atten
ion to himself that he possibly
:an, to talk like a loafer and a
'ob instead of a quiet, sensible
nan, to call his father “the old
nan” and his mother “the old
ady,” to think illy of every
woman he sees, and to speak
II of her every chance he gets,
;o turn up his nose at thos*.
quiet, sober, industrious young
men who do not train in his
crowd, to treat his sister with
out any sort of regard, to treat
;her like he was an ill-bred loaf-;
' er instead of like a gentleman.
Here is your picture, fast
young man, true to life. Look
j at it! How do you like it?What
have these characteristics made
[ of you? What will they do for
*you? What has the future in
I store for you? unless you
