They call him Krishnamurti. He is they solemnly aver, the Great Teacher. There is, however, nothing new about Krishnamurti’s teach ings. When he says that, “every man is but the product of his own desires” and “man is the maker of his own destiny, and what he wills to do nnot be stayed by any power on earth or in Heaven,” he is but repeating what philosophers since the days of ancient Greece have been telling. The foundations of this new sect are found on examination to be the same as those of Christianity, Buddhism, Mohamme- danism: 1. Self control as to the mind. 2, Self gonirol in action. 3. Tolerance. 4. Cheerfulness, 5. One pointedness. 6. Confidence. Very old is the observation, “there is only one yeligion, but many forms of it.” All religion is, at bottom, a searching for the ideal. The ideal cannot be attained without the six things named above, and so we find them being taught by Jesus, Buddha, Con fusius and Mahomet alike. Sects come, and sects go, but these principles go on. They are the religion everla ing. When Krishnamurti, now twenty-eight, was only twelve, he wrote tke book which now is the bible of his followers. It is called, “At the Feet of the Master.” In it he proclaims: “What religion a man holds, to what race he belongs—these things are not important; the really important thing is this knowledge—the knowledge of God's plan for men. For God has a plan, and that plan is evolution. When once a man has seen that and really knows it, he.cannot help working for it, and making himself one with it, because it is so glorious, so beau tiful. So because he knows, he is on God's side standing for good and resisting evil, working for evolution and not for sel fishness “If he is on God’s side he is one of u nd it does not mat ter ‘in the least wheather he calls himself a Hindu or a Budd hist, a Chrstian or a Mobammedan, whether he is an Italian or an “Euglishman, a’ Chinaman or a Russian We quote this because it seems ‘to represent a new high degree of tolerance in a sec’s teachings. Further Encroachment A movement designed to abolish military training in high schools is described in Washington dispatches as having been Imunched under the auspices of “a:group, including Senators Korah, Norris, Shipstead and LaFollette, and Representatives Huddleston of Alabama and Nelsgn of Wisconsin.” “Some of the members of the group” mentioned above, nc- cording fo Washington advices, “declares that congress will be called upon to prohibit military training in high schools and to‘eliminate the compulsory feature of this training from colleges and universities.’ This looks like another blow to state and local self-gov- ernment. If congress can prohibit one line of training or stud ies in high schools and colleges, it might prohibit or prescribe all other stgidies, regulating the whole curriculum. If mili- tary traning is taboo, why not the theory of evolution or any thing else that happens to be obnoxious to a majority of con gress? If the. door is opened to federal control of education, there is no limit to this extension of federal encroachment on state and local ownership of educational institutions. Hoover Warns Herbert Hooyer, secretary of commerce keeps his eye on the business welfare of the American people and tells them promptly how and when to protect themselves against foreign profiteering monopoly. This is what he has just told them: “Rubber. producers are taking from American consumers this year $660,000,000 more than a fair price for that commodity. and the nation faces similar exactions in the cost of cof-se and several other commodities. To defende ourselves against trade war being made upon us it is suggested that American bank- ers should be discouraged from giving American credits to the support of these combinations; that consumers should be organized by a strong systematic campaign to restrict their use of the products monopolized; that use of substitutes should be stimulated; that production in new arters of the globe should be encou 1, and that legislation to allow American buyers to combine the emergency against the foreign m opolies should be provided Taking No Chances ‘ Whatey-r else Governor Miriam A. Ferguson may or may not do she is shying away fromthe question of evolution. The youngsters of Texas are to pursue their studies in the public Behools without any reference, whatever, to the subject in their text books. To make certain she has just seen to it that the following passage in an official school book on biology hi been deleted. The passage read: “with an egotism which is en- tirely unwarranted, gwe are accustomed to speak of ‘man and animals’ wherea Pre ought to say ‘man and other animals, for certainly man is an animal just as truly as the beast of the field.” The governor is taking no chances of stirring up any such controversy as Tennessee did last summer over the Scopes case, She has all the trouble she desires for the present. Young Astor's Philosophy It is interesting ta know exactly what the richest young man in America thinks of his kind. Therefore, listen to Vin- cent Astor: “Rich people sometimes attempt to disp’ their wealth in a vulgar way, but the society people I am privileged to know—I so call them because that is the popular tag—are folks with usual American appetities, usyg] American tastes and usual American jobs. They 1 , it ix true; haye mo money than the average American, but they don’t eat any more meals, they don’t wear any more clothes, and they can’t sleep in any more beds. If there is any social gulf at all be- tween different groups of Americans, it isn’t so much to be measured by money as by newspaper headlines.” , ‘ Magnus’ Case Slips Former Farmer-Labar Senator Magnus Johnson of Min- nesota who is contesting the seat of Senator- Schall, Repub- lienp, before a senate Inve&tigating commmittee has been in- formed that if he gould not produce specifie charges out of whieh an issue could be drawn, his cortest would be dropped. Up to the present testimony has been gene ral, vague and in direct and without proven fact, It will not be long now until Magnus can return to milking duties at home: Several years ago no one would have believed that Mr, Moolidge would ever talk twelve times as often as Hiram Jobnson. | world is unconvinced, or if men con World Topics | “The Christian church now faces unprecedented. opportunity in an en feebled condition, her witness weak- | ened, her message in part discredited by her own differences and divi-| sions,” asserted the Right Rever | end W.

Speaking on this point before a meeting of teachers, Miss Margaret T. Maguire, principal of McCall school, Philadelphia, called the home a “way station on the path to amusement and work,” and rged parents with being unwill- ing to forego play that they’ may fulfill their full duty as fathers and mothers, In other words, too many parents are pleasure-mad Peter Pans, who are determined not to grow up and take on themselves the respons! bilities they voluntarily assumed ‘svhen they married and became fathers and mothers, Miss Maguire {s apparently rather hopeless about parents of this sort having an awakening and she seems to think teachers will have to bend their backs to the heavier load and carry on as best they may. The manifest unfairness of making the teachers be both pedagogue and parent may well temper some of the criticism h ts directed at times against educational system of the coun: | | If teachers make failures here | leave > de {t should be re membered they are over-worked and cter velop have too much responsibility of a| | kind they should, not be asked to| assume, —_—-— Drink Hillcrest Water.

Norton of New Jersey, who first gained public recognition while sponsoring a hospital project in her state. She has been interest- ed in hospitals and nurseries ever since the death of her - only child years ago. Mrs. Norton has en vice chalr- n of the Demo- fal, cratic state execu- 2 =| tive committee for desMArvT Nortox New Jersey for several years and arge amount of organ- campaigning and peechmaking. She has spoken from platforms with the most prominent of Democratic party members. In) November, 1923, she was, elected # member of the county board of free- solders, the first woman to hold office in New Jersey, an office similar to that of county commis- sioner. Her first political office came in 1920 when she became vice chair- man of the executive conmmittee. She s a delegate to the last Demo- utie conyention and along with members of the delegation st her yote for “Al” Smith. Although a home woman, Mrs. Norton doesn’t belleve in having her picture taken -in the kitchen, oking, or in the laundry, washing. She explains that she does not intend to do her own washing or cooking while in Washington so “why tell the world about thay Cost of Christmas merica’s Christmas dinner is to st something like $150,000,000. The estimate Is no random shot; it is based on computation made by a home economist ch work at the University of Chicago, which doubtless should make the figures Impressive as well as imposing. Of course, this is not all holiday expense. The bill for our every-day dinner is not « light one; satisfying 100,000,0000 appetites is a large con- tract, even when the alm is plain feeding. But it is on a few, holidays t ting is at its best. e home economists figure the Christmas dinner of the ayerage American family will cost from $5 to $7. They have not yet kled the job of estimating the st of the Christmas present. With fortune spent on the dinner, it ‘+ safe to s that several of such fortunes will be expended before the bil's for the Christmas gifts are ull paid. America can afford it. Home economists are not proposing that we cut down the charges. [ask tor Horlicks The ORICINAL Malted Milk Nourishing—Digestible— No Cooking The Home Food-Drink for Ail Aget MONEY TO LOAN t nunds.
