But a dozen of them may tell quite another story. For instance, consider this collection made from four papers within two days: “Charge Movies Ridicle Pastors; Higher Critics Take Church Unawares; Baptists Want [Books Free of Evolution Error; Science Conflicting With Revealed Religion; Clergy Declare Divorced Amer- ica Doomed; Deacons Object to Church Unity; Pas- tor Leaves Church for Business; Explains Contra- dictions in Bible; Dancing Eenemy of Church; Filappers Cause of Irreligion.” Evidently there is a cry from Macedonia, which comes from someone haying toes heavily stepped on. It would seem, on merely casual analysis, that the church which started with a carpenter and some fishermen some two thousand years ago and managed to live through the destruction of Rome, the evils of the dark ages, the debauchery and crime of a few hundred years ago on the contin- ent, the world war and the spirit, of unrest of this year of grace 1922, can probably continue to exist, whether the movies make fun of pastors or not, whether higher criti criticise or not, whether Baptists or Methodists or any other sect think evolution is an error or not, whctler the v: denominations are unified ox remain divided, where Americans get divorces or not, whether the Biblical contradictions be explained or not, and whether we have flappers dancing or staid There is probably something wrong with the church. There is something wrong with most things. Nothing human is perfect and the church is a human institution, ministering a divine truth. But the “something wrong” would seem much more to be the man who thinks that a flapper or di vorce, or higher criticism, or unity or the lack of it can definitely interrupt the march of true re- ligion, than the various sundry and almost al- ways puerile causes they assign for any failure of the church to be perfect. Boston Pulls Another Party GAIN, and on Commonwealth avenue in Bos- ton have business and professional men, naval officers, Harvard students, all rated with Bos- ton’s exclusive social set, been engaged in a mid- night frolic with chorus girls and movie queens. ‘The party grew so rough that a naval officer was thrown out and three of the actresses sent to the hospital to recover from the man handling by Har- yard seniors. The hit of the evening was a dance by a chorus girl in diaphanous pajama: The tired business men made such a rush for a close up view, that many guests were knocked down and trampled) under foot. The dignified Harvard gentlemen displayed, their book learning as well as their social manners by blacking the eyes and otherwise maltreating their favorite chorus chickens. Altogether the party was a great success; and as the most gifted social writers for the high brow ston journals would put it “those present bad a ly time.” Praise From Caesar MRULY a graceful compliment the Lyman En- terprise, a Democratic newspaper, pays Hon. John W. Hay, in its last issue, when it says: “Although the Enterprise may not altogether agree upon all things political with‘ our friend Hon. John W. Hay of Rock Springs, it is a genu- uine pleasure to see a man of his standing and abil- ity announce himself as a candidate for governor of our state. His temperament, his experience and success in handling big problems, his financial and social standing all tend to thoroughly fit him for the position to which he aspires. We feel that the Republicans of this state would make no mistake by nominating him at the coming primary elec- tion.” Keep It Dead 66 ANYONE who spends time combating radical- ism in America, using the term in respect to revolutionary movements, is slaying the slain.” These are the words accredited to Dr. Jolm A. Ryan. ‘Well, maybe so. The professor ougit to know: it's his job. But the common variety of man with his ear to the ground and his eyes on the news- paper reports of crime, robbery, pillage, murder, The Fountian Source There has been some discussion of | late with reference to the language, | | similar documents the same language New York Herald t ihought and expression contained in the greatest of American documents| Law.” This work Presented since the establishment of| lies all of the heroic literature of the the republic by the colonists—the| Revolutionary peri Declaration of Independence.

It may be, in the sense in which Dr. Ryan uses | the term, that radicalism is dead in this country. But even at the risk of killing the killed, slaying the slaim and then burying the already interred, ,it would seem the part of wisdom to keep the vigi- lant eye well open and the alert hand ready to strike. The apparently moribund have come to life before now, and will again; eteral vigilance is |the price of liberty no less now than formerly.

These “maintenance charges” run into enormous} figures and in many instances have equaled the or- iginal cost of the road before the ten-year bond) period has elapsed. Thus is the tax burden in- creased, as these charges come out of the geucral fund instead of the original road bond issue. Each dollar of maintenance costs means that the tax- payer is paying a premium on top of the original road cost, A flexible road base or wearing surface, which does not shatter under impact is absolutely essen- tial for modern traffic. If an inelastic road base such as concrete is used it should be covered with a cushioned wearing surface of asphaltic character to save its non-giving surface from destruction. ee od The Modern Home ‘Not LONG AGO, professor Palmer of Harvard contrasted the Puritan home and the modern home with the insight of a philosopher,” states the Minneapolis Journal. “He finds that the Puritan home was closely centered about a few worth-while and abiding interests like education, work and re- ligion. The interests of the modern home are as scattered as its personnel. It has more freedom, tolerance and a greater variety of interests and amusements than the old home. Many of the values the Puritan home had, the modern home lacks, and some things of value that the modern home has, the Puritan home lacked. Nor has the complete home yet been very widely attained. “After twenty-five years of testing, it seems to many educators that the modern home does not) awaken the hunger for knowledge or inspire the) sense of duty that the earlier home did. Can’ the) modern home combine duty with freedom, and a dedication to education and religion with a variety of pleasures and interests? “Perhaps it is too soon to judge whether the! home can do this, but its reflection in the educa-| tional record is not reassuring. Defending the Flapper 48 INTERESTING to note how large the flappers loom in the day’s news,” notes the Fall River News. “Between those who praise and those who condemn; be‘ween those who laugh with them, and those who laugh at them, they flavor every page. Yet there would seem to be a confn- sion of tongues, and no two would seem to be speak- ing of the same thing. Just what is a flapper? Is every female with bobbed hair in that category, or are oh-so-short skirts a part of the concept? What is the age limit? How much gray matter in the cerebral cavity? “Those who praise the flapper admire her poise and sanity; those who condemn, decry her inanity and vampish ways. Surely she cannot be all that jis wholesome, and at the same time, deyoid of all that is fine and womanly. Aren’t we getting a lit- tle too slovenly in our aise of the term and isn’t it the truth of the matter that there are plenty of clear-eyed, sweet-thinking young things, as there al- | Ways were and, in decent society, always will be? The flapper is not of these: she is a light-weight and has no permanency; she passes through space and time with a flash and a flare. One is startled. One blinks and stares. If he is cynic, one scoffs. If a philosopher, he smiles and turns again to endur- ing things.” “ | Improved Outlook ! AR FINANCE corporation reports a marked | improvement in condition of country banks. I, tt aie TepOriae ha outlook for business | based upon agricultu: industries such as eral farming and livestock. ir There is a steady improvement im deposits in the smaller banks throughout the country showing an improved status of farming interests generally. Few people appreciate the help that well-man- aged banks have given in the restoration of busi- ness conditions. Banks are slow to fall for waves of agitation and | excitement that sweep less conservative classes off ; their feet but generally speaking, it would be hard | to improve on the often abused banking system of | our country. | If the country could get rid of an enormous yol- ume of untaxed securities, on one hand, and unfair competition that banks are subjected to on the part of state and federal loans based on non-taxable bonds, immense sums of money: would flow into banks and industrial undertakings which are now | absorbed by tax-exempt securities which draw | money ont of circulation and jcourage hoarding. | \ Question Answered iA CERTAIN society sister asks the question— ‘How can we keep our husbands at home?’ reports the Alta Herald. “We are willing to guarantee that if the lady j questioner wil] furnish something to make the cradle interesting and will have more real meals -and less luches at her home the problem of keeping the husband at home will be solved so far as she tis concerned.” issued by the neo-| it is evident that Ged, by creating us, Ally Of, theae | proposed our preservation, perfection and happiness. * * *.God is, therefore willing that every one should labor for his own preservation and Perfection, in order to acquire all the happiness of which he is capable, according to his nature and state.” and “by happiness ‘we are to understand the internal gsat- and a writer in the races them all back apparently under- iod and affords all ideas and some of of the Declaration nd generally shammin’ when he’s dead. €be Casper Daily Cribune | | | erfection, conven- Again he says: ature has made us all of the same species, all equal, all free and independent of each other; in hort, she was willing that those on whom she has bestowed the same fac- ulties should have all the same rights. * * This liberty and independence is therefore, a right naturally belonging to man, of which it would be unjust to deprive him against his will. * * * It must, therefore, be agreed, that sov- ereignty resides originally in the peo- ple, and in each individual with re- gard to himself, and that it is the transfer and union of the several rights of individuals in some person, or assemblage of persons, which con- stitutes and produces what is called sovereignty in government.” After carefully analyzing the struc- ture of society and government this great author, writing at least a quar- ter of a century before the Mecklen- ‘burg declaration or the Declaration of Independence, declares that “it is not meant that a government may not forfeit its right to the respect and obedience of the people who have es- tablished it." “For,” says he, “it is past all doubt that when a govern- ment becomes destructive of the ends for which it was instituted, and uses its powers to auite contrary purpose, it becomes an enemy to the state, and the sovereignty returns to the nation, which has a right to form new instl- tutions, laying their foundations on such principles, and organizing its powers in such forms, as will secure their safety and happiness for the fu- ture.” No one with the faculty of condensa- tion and a due regard for rhetoric could be placed in the position of the colonists with this book in their hands and fail to produce a Declaration of Independence. It should be found in every public library; should be the text book on government tn every pub- lic school and college, for it analyzes and justifies every intelligent system of government. Cost of Paving Editor Tribune:—It seems a shame that so many people are so misin- formed as to what the cost of the pav ing in the southwest part of the city is going to be. The persons who have been circulating the petition of remon- strance have themselves been misin- formed or-they have been misleading the others tn entire ignorance of the facts. A gentleman told me at the city Mr. Garbutt contractor in town takes Mr. Garbutt's estimates and considers them good, so why shouldn't we? The man who told me owns a 60-foot inside lot, and Mr. Garbutt gave him as a maximum cost under the conditions laid down in the petition for pavement, of $340 which divided by ten would be an an- nual payment of $34 per year for ten years. Now who is there who owns property in this territory who cannot afford paving at such figures? Then the minimum may bring this figure down to $25 to $27 per year and it is very apt to do that too, for we know now that there will be bids as low as $1.80 per yard, which is cheaper than any bid I've known of for some years. Though I have known of asphalt bids as low at $1.35 per yard, and have seen good pave ments Jaid for that price. We may. be very greatly surprised when the bids are opened to find that prices have come down to pre-war times. At any rate nobody is going to be in- jured by this pavement,,and I am glad to know that the signatures of persons who do not live in this territory, are not going to be given any considera- tion by the council.

How does the little prophet know that the human says, and thereby he thinks to explain @ mystery-that he only de- ides. ‘But there are other song prophets too, for ‘the robin is only one of an in numerabfe company of feathered folk who speed the parting night. Like a great symphony the early morning chorus of the birds is opened by a single note here and there. Presently other notes are added until the melo- dy gathers in volume and moves on to a full choral climax. “As nearly as the human observer can detect between sleeping and wak ing, there are several distinguishable notes or songs contributed by differ- ont songsters.

The blue-winged jay softens his caw a little when greeting the morning, while the thrush interludes the chorus with the happy announcement that “summer is coming, I know it, I know it." The jolly little wren is on hand with his morning twitter, which he. y; interrupts by appropriate periods. “Do these feathered folk have an ex: aggerated idea of when day begins? Perhaps they do.
