THE CRY FOR I ELP.
The cry for help ha* gone up
from the counties in the west do
vas tod by flood. It is in North
Carolina —at our doors, not thous
ands of miles away. Kyo-wit
neases have spoken and tried to
describe the calamity that has be
fallen the countiea in the Blue
Ridge foot hills. With all the
power of speech given, it ia doubt
ful if they have been able to paint
the BCene as it really ia. In a few
worda it is this: Tho earthly pos
sessions of those people have been
■wept away—all they havo de
stroyed. Their homes, crops and
lands are gone. They have been
left destitute. Thousands and
thousands of them will not live
long -enough to get on their feet
and Start in life again. Tt is utter
desolation.
The people are responding gen
orouhly. It is a case (or prodigal
generosity. The S'at® central
committee reports donations of
over $30.00(1. It will take many
times that to save many from dire
want. Cougress has given $540,-
000, of which $300,000 will come
to this State. Congressman Sted
jnan asked for $750,000. It is not
proposed to restore the immense
loss sustained, but to foods- tho
hungry and clothe the naked. It
ia an urgent call.
"Uncle" Joe Cannon drew a big
crowd of the faithful to Greensboro
Saturday. The reports are that he
made a rather pleasing speech, on
the reinineecent order, naturally so,
ho being now past 80, and near the
place of his birth. There wore oth
ers along to do the political firing.

to preserve its political entity,
its solidity and integrity."

with a glad anil proud heart be
cause it is made in your company."

"Win or lose, whatever the out
come, 1 am with you, and I am for
this cause to light to the end. We
are dedicated iu this great war
for righteousness, and while life
hints we cannot and we will not
abandon it."
* ♦ •
"The men who believe that we
will ever betray these ideals or
abandon the task to which we
have sot! ourselves do not know us
and cannot ever guess at the faith
that inspires us."
* * *
"This movement will never go
back, and whatever may betide in
the future, of one thing the dis
ciples of an easy opportunism
may rest assured—l will never
abaudon the principles to which
we Progressives have pledged our
selves, and 1 will never abandon

Cor. of The Gleaner.
Washington, D. C., July 29,
1810.—Glorious news for every
sterling Democrat who wishes to
see thnt great Democrat, Wood row
Wilnon, nwept back in to the White
House House for four more years.
He is going to be swept back on
the biggest tidal wave ever re
corded*—
The State of Maine elects a Gov
ernor, two Senators and four Con
gressmen on Sept. 11. The Na
tional Democratic Committee is
having a canvass made to ascer
tain the "trend of the sentiment
up there." The first two counties
canvassed, cast 1,700 votes for
Wilson and a combined vote of
3,:>00 tor Roosevelt and Taft in
1912. The canvassers report that
the voters in those counties are
going to give 3,746 votes to Wil
son and 2,251 votes to Hughes. A
sweeping change indeed. These
are the first straws but they show
the most wonderful chauge in the
voters, because in 1912 Wilson
was "unknown", comparatively,
but they know his record now,
and want more of it.
netting Odds Changes.
Soon after the nominations were
made in June, when it became
known that Teddy would endorse
Hughes, the Republicans offered
a few small bets at 2 to 1 in favor
of Hughes, which were promptly
taken up. But last week $25,000
was offered on Wilson in New
York at odds of 2 to 1 and no Re
publican takers at that. The out
look is glorious.
Congress Mpeedlng Up.
The House and Senate are fully
alive to the fact that they will
have to work more and talk less
if they Bucceed in adjourning be
fore September. The program as
agreed upon a few days ago, if
carried out strictly to the letter,
will result in an adjournment by
August 20th. The Rural Credit
Hill which was signed by Presi
dent Wilson last week is oqe of
the most valuable acta of legisla
tion the ''farmer" has "ever re
ceived at the hands of Congress.
Republican Congresses used to
legislate for the trusts but for the
hard-working farmer, never. It
is well known that the farmers,
especially in the West and South,
have been compelled to pay a high
rate of interest for farm loans
which are ususually 8, 10, and
sometimes 12 per cent. The Ad
ministration leaders are consider
ing the establishment of a "Farm
ers Bureau" which will further
facilitate the securing of loans by
farmers at low rates of interest.
The shipping Bill Progreiiaea.
This important measure which
will authorize the United States
government to acquire a merchant
marine in the quickest possible
time, is now enjoying the "right
of way" in the Senate. It is very
crrtaiu that the biil will pass the
Senate by an overwhelming vote
because the Democrats are solidly
hehihd it, and they have a majority
of sixteen in the Senate, and those
few Republican Senators from the
great farming States of the mid
dle West, will "seal their politi
cal doom" if they vote against
this bill, which will bring so much
prosperity to the agricultural and
manufacturing industries of the
United States. While our foreign
trade is already enormous we
could add to it by more than five
hundred million dollars of exports
per year. With a large merchant
marine to carry our goods to for
eign countries, there will be no
hitch to the great prosperity which
we are eujoying, when thq. war
ends. ' The war has been on nov
for two years, and our sale of am
munition abroad has not-quite
reached a half billion dollars for
the two years. When it is recalled
Germany aud Austria can get no
goods from the United States dur--
ing the war, it will be seen that
there will be an immense demand
for American products in Ger
many aud Austria as soon as the
war is over. For these two coun
tries alone buy more than five
hundred million dollars worth a
year, which is twice the value of
the ammunition that we have sold
on accouut of the war, so that
when our sales of ammunition
shall.ceane, our peace trade will
more than double what we have
lost by the ending of the war.

Taxt of the Laaaon, I Cof. xiii—Mam

xiii, 13—Commentary Prepared by
Rav. D. M. Staarna.
It Is only in this epistle to those
whom be culls babes and carnal Chris
tians that be makes any reference to
the matter of "tongues" which some
believers make so much of In our day,
and when he does mention them>bey
are laßt on the llpaittLla corffiection
«lth the Interpretstloi\
(chapter ll, 7. 10, says,
"Let him thnt Hpeaketh la an unknown
tongue prny that he may interpret,"
and "I had rather speak five words
with my understanding, that I might
teach others also, than ten thousand
words in an unknown tongue" (chapter
xlv, 13,10). The more excellent way of
Love h« sets be/ore us in our lesson
chapter. The great chapter on Faith Is
Ileb. xl, where the word is used over
''twenty flmes. The great chapter on
Hope is Rom. Till, and this is one of
the great Love chapters, but as to the
use of the word, if we include the verb
and the noun "beloved," it is found in
I John lv about thirty times, while In
John xlv and our lesson chapter It is
used nine times in each, if I have
counted correctly.
We are certainly safe In saying that
therri is no topic In the whole Bible so
woqaerful as the love of God, but the
grgbt matter Is always the love of God
IXo us, never our love to Him, which Is
not worth mentioning compared with
His lovo to us. John Is not spoken of
as the (llsclple who loved Jesus, but the
disciple whom Jesus loved. It is not
the love of Martha and Mary and Laz
arus, but "Jesus loved Martha and
Mary and Lazarus" (John xl, 5; xiii, 23;
xlx, 20; xx, 2; xxi, 7. 20). The words
that hold me most strongly are such as
these: "The Son of God, who loved me
and gave Himself for Lae." "Having
loved His own,.* • • ne loved them
unto the end, or the uttermost" "I
hnve loved thee with an everlasting
love" (Gal. 11, 20; John xiii, 1; Jer.
xxxl, 3). These, with Eph. v, 25; John
111, 16; the many verses in I John 111
and lv, and Song viil, 7, are to me some
of the most wonderful, with John xv, 0.
The first three lesson verses show
the utter worthiessness of tongues, or
teaching, or understanding mysterl«6,
or knowledge, or miracles, or giving
all oar goods to feed the poor, or even
our bodies to be burned, apart from
love. Whpt a complete laying low of
all that men might boast of that the
love of God may be magnified and His
love constraining us and working in
us the works ne has for us.
There is no room for boasting nor for
any pride of man because of Ills abili
ty to do this or that The Lord alone
must be exalted. Such love as is here
described in, our memory verses, 4-7,
was never fully manifest In any. one
except In Jesus Christ, but He Is able
to manifest It In us.
It i| no doubt true that all the fruit
of the Spirit in Gal. v, .22, 23, Is but
different manifestations of love, Joy
being love exulting, peace lovo In re
pose, and so on. According to Col.
1, 11, It requires all the might of His
glorious power to moke us patient and
long suffering with Joyfulness, but He
Is able to work all this In us If we
will let Him. To be kind always, free
from all good opinion of ourselves or
envy of others, uever provoked, never
thinking nor speaking evil of any one.
bearing and enduring all things for
His sake —what a heavenly life! Yet
do not turn from it or say It cannot
be done, but rather tarn to Him and
say, "Lord, do thou it in me for Thy
great name's sake." All our knowl
edge now is but partial, and If any
man think that he knowetli anything
he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to
know (verses 0, 10; chapter vill, 2).
We may know that we have become
children of God by faith In Christ Je
sus and gladly sing, "I know that my
Redeemer Uveth" (Gal. 111, 13-20; Job
xlx, 25), but of the life we are yet to
live and the unseen realities of His
kingdom and glory we know but little.
There Is a lot of childish prattle and
self conceit wo would do well to have
done with and rather say, "O magnify
the Lord with me, and let us exalt His
name together." "I will extol Thee
my God, O King, and bless Thy name
forever and-ever" (rs. xxxlv, 3; cxlv,
1). Note the double contrast of "now"
and "then" In verse 12, and may we by
faith so know the power of the "then"
that we shall lire better in the "now"
to His glory. Then, faej to face, know
ing as we are known, like Him, for
we shall see Him as He is, even our
bodies being fashioned like unto His
glorious body (I John lit. 1, 2; Phil, ill,
20, 21).
Do not misunderstand the last versa
of the lesson. We never heard of any
thing so great as the love of God, but
the greatest thing on our part Is faith,
without which It Is impossible to please
God and by which alone we can be
come children of God. It is the one
thing He looks for In us, the faith
which worketh by love, because we
have known and believed the love
which God hath to us (Gal. v, 0; I John
tv, 10). See how He commended the
great faith of the centurion and the
woman of Tyre and Sldon, while He
reproved His disciples because of their
little faith (Matt vl. 30; vlll, 10, 20;
xlv, 31; xv, 28; xvl, 8). Note also His
admonition to "have faith In God"
(Mark xi, 22).

America Needs a New
System of Public
Education
Br Dean JAMES E. RUSSELL, Teach,
«r»' College, Columbia University
A a result of the world war eveL
f\ America must reckon with a
new conception of state and
with it expect a new type of public
education. >
The German state takes full con
trol over this system of education.
It trains the teachers, inducts them
Into office, fixes their salaries, pen
sions them in old age, prescribes the
curriculums,. defines methods of in
struction and by a system of exarai
nation'at once judges the output
and CONTROLS THE EX
TRANCE TO ALL PROFESSIONS
AND PUBLIC SERVICE.
" What we need in America is a
system of educatiohal administra
tion that shall eliminate the politi
cian and fostfer professional spirit
that would put the public good
ahead of personal gain.
We need school and teaching
management that shall appreciate
reasonable law and secure voluntary
obedience to constituted authority
