of the masses. Is there any indication
that there is similar staggering in our
day?
What is stable nowadays? Witness
the uncertainty, unrest, agitation, so
cial confusion. The holiday season
that has just passed has been one of
the most remarkable in the history of
the country—a period of wild extrav
agance, indeed, of delirium, with an
utter disregard to God and religion,
and to even the commonplaces of mor
ality. The contentions in industrial
life are more bitter than ever. One
Young Man Probably Right When He
Said It Would Teach Him
a Lesson.
'Years ago when I was teaching in
'high school, we had considerable trou
ble with the students slamming the
outside doors, and we lectured them
often. It was my week for hall duty
when one noon a young man entered
the school building and banged the
tdoor.
0 was much provoked and said,
'‘Young man, will you please go out
again and try and see if you cannot
close that door more quetly?” He
looked rather surprised and said, “Yes
ma’am,” and did as I asked. I said,
“That was better.”
He then inquired where he would
find one of our teachers. To my sur
prise he was not a student as I
thought, but a friend making a call.
I tried to apologize, but he said it
would serve as a good lesson.—Ex
change.
The Place for 1t.
“Willie!”
“Yes, pop.”
“Can you carry a tune?”
“Certainly I can carry a tune, pop.”
“Well, carry that one you’re whis
tling out in the back yard and bury
it.”
DOING THE BEST HE COULD
Question as to What Joe Was Crying
“About” Was Settled in
Short Order.
I have a small brother, writes a
Youth’s Companion subscriber, who is
three years old. On one occasion he
came walking slowly and quietly up
to his mother and turned a very wan,
pinched little face up to her. She
asked him in a sympathetic voice:
“What is the matter, Joe? You
aren’t sick, are you?”
“No, ma’am.”
“Well, what is the matter?”
“Nothin’, only I just feel so pitiful!”
By now his feelings were so “worked
up” that he began to cry.
“Well, is that what makes, you cry
so easily?” .
“No, ma’am, that’s wh’at makes me
cry so hard !”
“Now, Joseph, what is mamma’s boy
crying so hard about?”
“I’m cryin’ ’bout as hard as I can.”
And he proceeded to do so.
When Love Was Blind.
Sheila—If I had known what a fool
you were I never should have married
you.
Dick—You might have guessed that
when I proposed to you.—London An

The only effective way to convince a
contrary man that he is wrong is to
agree with him.

strike follows another in rapid suc
cession. In the moral sphere we find
that there is an increase in profan
ity, desecration 'of the Lord’s day
and sensuality—all of this notwith
standing the formal destruction of the
liquor traffic. As a rule churches are
empty or sparsely attended, or, where
the congregations are large, the peo
ple are attracted to them for the same
reason that they attend the “movies”
—entertainment; there being, of
course, some exceptions. Orthodox
churches fraternize freely with liber
al and skeptical churches, because
they are not sufficiently consecrated
to maintain the truth at sacrifice to
themselves, yet' fear to give up all
forms of religion. The world is stag
gering—and why?
Men Are Blind.
The first of the reasons for similar
conditions in Israel assigned in our
context is that the people were blind*
They did not see. They had so per
sistently declined to see, that God had
taken away from them the power to
see. The blindness of today is chief
ly spiritual. Men will not look at the
truth. Many in Christian churches to
day are not informed on what is in the
Bible, simply because they will not
open their eyes to see. They have
been taught to believe certain things,
and when anything different is present
ed, their prejudice prevents investiga
tion. While declining to go over to
the ranks of the rejectors of the truth
openly, they withdraw from active
Christian work and sink into the mass
of the non-churchgoing world.
Man says, “I am not learned.” Is it
true that today we have a condition
of ignorance as to religious- truth? In
vestigate the so-called purveyors of
truth of today. They are either ig
norant of the truth, or, being informed
of the truth, are false to it. Do the
preachers know the truth? Or, if they
know, the truth, are they so degenerate
as to conceal it? Ignorance of the
truths of the Christian religion is the
underlying cause of the success of re
ligious fads of the day. The knowl
edge of the truth is a bulwark against
error. It is not sufficient for a man
to say, “I am not learned;” he ought
to be learned.
The prophet says that it is because
the leaders of the people are blind
and ignorant. “The prophets and your
rulers and seers hath he covered.” The
true prophet, the good leader, God has
taken away; but unfortunately there
are those who pose in their places, and
they are blind leaders of the blind.
The seers of today are mere guessers
at the truth, giving out but the “pre
cepts of men.”
Washington.—Methods by which in
toxicating liquors may be obtained for
medical purposes and detailed regu
lations governing their sale were
made public by the bureau of inter
nal revenue.
Announcement also was made that
the bureau had compiled a system of
permits providing a definite and fixed
channel through which all intoxicat
ing liquors must move, and by which
hereafter the government will know
the location of every gallon of distill
ed liquor within the nation’s boun
daries, except that stored in private
homes.
In setting forth the ways in which
liquor may be procured, Commissioner
Roper took occasion to issue a warn
ing against profiteering in its sale.
The commissioner declared that ex
orbitant charges for liquor for medici
nal purposes “certainly place the dis
pensers thereof in the class with pro
fiteers and they will be investigated.”
Mr. Roper also announced that all
liquor seized under federal law prior
to last October 28, unless claimed un
der the 60-day ruling, would be sold
by order of the court under the juris
diction of which it is held. It must
be sold, however, to a holder of a per
mit.
Both the physician who prescribes
and the ’ pharmacist who sells liquor,
the regulations provide, must have a
permit.

COL. GRAVES ADDRESSES
THE FORESTRY CONGRESS.
New Orleans.—Acquisition by the
government of extensive additional
areas of forest lands to be handled
permanently in the Interests of the
public was the feature of a proposed
new forestry policy lor the nation ad
vocated by Colonel H. S. Graves, chief
of the United States Forest service,
before the day’s session of the South
ern Forestry congress here.
THE WOOL MARKET NOW FAST
APPROACHING PRE-WAR BASIS.
New York.—The wool market is
rapidly approaching a normal, pre-war
basis, and manufacturers’ demands for
raw wool will be met in full soon, ac
cording to Arthur Williams, federal
food administrator, who conferred
with representatives of the American
Woolen association here.
WILSON RENEWS APPEAL
FOR FOOD RELIEF CREDITS
Washington. — Through Secretary
Glass, President Wilson renewed the
appeal to congress to grant credits of
$150,000,000 for Poland, Austria and
Armenia to alleviate conditions which
threaten “moral and material chaos”
in those countries.
Secretary Glass presented the pres
ident’s letter to the house ways and
means committee without comment
and the committee deferred considera
tion of it. There was no Indication
when the committee would act finally
on the request of Mr. Glass that the
credits be authorized.
What Is the Remedy?
Let the leaders and the people open
their eyes to the truth. “But where
are we to find the truth?” one asks.
There is just one answer: We are
to find that truth inthe Bible. We
do not have any hesitation in saying
that we should stand on the old Book.
The Catholic church broke down af
ter many centuries of trial, and Prot
estantism came to the front; but
now Protestantism is breaking down.
The church has lost its grip, and its
present movement to rehabilitate it
self by such efforts as the raising of
vast sums of money and by scientific
investigation and organization is
doomed to failure. God in these
movements is largely forgotten, what
ever may be the protestations to the
contrary.
GLASS WRITES ADVISING THE
VIRGINIA GENERAL ASSEMBLY
Washington.—On the eve of his tak

Christianity did not come from
heaven to be the amusement of an
idle hour, or the food of mere imag

and playeth well upon an instrument.”
It is intended to be the guide and
companion of all our hours—the seri
ous occupation of our whole exist
ence.—Bishop Jebb.
