BIBLE THOUGHT FOR TODAY IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH; God is a spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. John 4:24. CLEMENCEAU USES LANGUAGE PLAIN In answer to critics, particul arly certain members of the United States Senate, George why I am a great optimist on their future. "We stand at the cross roads," says Mr. Babson. "We must choose between God and Mam mon. Materialism is undermin ing our civilization as it lias un dermined other civilizations. Unless we heed the warning in time to get back to the funda mentals, Ave must fall even as the civilizations of Egypt, Greece and Rome fell and for this' same reason." In further elaboration, Mr. Babson said the statistics of every Nation indicate that tru-i religion is the power necessary for the development of its re sources, and for its successful continuation. "The challenge," he declared, "goes out to every man to support his church, . to take an active part in the reli gious life of his community, to live according to the simple prm-i ciples upon which this, the grea J grow up into business people. The churches are never going to be exactly right until the home becomes so. The aged men must become "sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in pa tience. The aged women like wise, that they be in behavior as becometh holiness, not given to false accusers, not given to much wine teachers of good things, that they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, to be discreet, chaste, keepers at home," and that the same exhortation to the young women be applied to the young men.

I " 7 comes back with plain truths, winch may not be pleasant to some, yet truths they be. In his Boston address he de claa-ed that he came to America to get this country to take part in the Lausanne Conference, saying: "Never were circum stances better. Go there and you will meet the eastern ques tion which is troubling the world 'for the last 500 years. "And you will do more you will settle it, because you can do it, because the presence of Amer ica in Europe again will tell the Germans that they won't go far ther than certain limits, and be cause everybody will understand that there is a moral and mater ial power which is to take poss esion of the world, not for dom ination, but for freedom." Prior to, and during, the World war the influence of . America was the greatest moral force in the world and the whole earth looked toward this country to lead it out of the darkness which had possessed the face of earth. That darkness has not yet disap peared and the United States still has a duty to perform. It cannot step from the stage and forever disappear from the coun sels of the nations. It has taken and earned a place of influecc and that influence should still be exerted to help the hard press ed nations of the world to again find peace and security. If it does not use that influence in time of peace it will again see the world in chaos and locked in an other deadly struggle between forces of right and progress and those of destruction. These truths may not be agree able, but netherless they must be faced. Was ; i I founded 300 years ago." All of which is very true, but what constitutes the foundation for this "true religion?" That is the one point the moralists too frequently overlook. It is tha home.
