Syracuse, N. Y. What is the chief reason for the Present supremacy of the United States in trade? Answer.—Its possession of raw ma- terials for manufacture. A recent re-| port by an English expert states:| “Ring-fence the United States, and its .inhabitants would suffer little in | consequence; do the same with Great Britain, and all its people would per~] ish in a few weeks." | This fundamental difference mini- | mizes the significance of tariff, or even of standardized products and th use of the laiest machin public is largely Its | geographical position, huge area and | amazing fertiity of natural resources are the foundations of its commercial| eminence. .

It seems to be|V taught in certain parts of the Bible, | yet it offends my e of justice. Can you throw any lizht upon it? | Answer.=The inclusive meaning of | predestination is that whatever God | does in time He purposes in eternity. But His preordinat.on of events or of persons does not annul the free will of the individual B As for predestination in the sense | of spiritual caste and privilege, I em not surprised that it repels you. The doctrine of divine precedence either for Jew or Gentile is “bad medicine” for the non-elect. Nor do I believe the Father of all spirits is given to the rank favoritism which that doc- trine implies. One cannot accuse the Deity he adores of a flagrant partial- ity which would bankrupt any earthly father's character. The Hebrews were a chosen people, but they were selected for service, and in doing that service they entered their spiritual kingdom. The Chris- tian was elected by his Lord to signal distinction, but it depends upon his sacrificial devotion to the good of others. “Let him that would be the greatest among vou,” said Christ, “be the servant of all.” The great argument of St. Paul in the eighth and ninth chapters of his letter to the Romans was not in- tended to prove that man has no moral freedom. It was intended to show that from the beginning God purposed to’ save men and that He also knew who would accept His sal- vation and who would not. This is foreknowledge, but it is not prede- termination. For it is not God's knowledge that determines human action, but rather the human action He foresees which determines His knowledge. At the same time there is a modi- fled predestination in ancestry and environment which makes some things possible to us and others impossible. Yet self-contrgl continues to operate within these limitations, and man is still responsible for his character and destiny. Scriptural teaching, rightly under- stood, does not sanction the wellnigh DIARY OF A NEW FATHER BY R. E. DICKSON. \ TUESDAY NIGHT. Took Jim, the fellow at the next desk, out to the hospital at noon today to see the baby, and darn if they would bring out my own son for us. I told the nurse I would report her, and she said to go ahead. there was the supervisor down the hall. I asked the supervisor, and when she said no, I asked her whose baby it was anyway, and she wanted to krow whose hospital it was. Of all | the wise-cracking bunch! But I slipped away from the office again at 2 o'clock. one of the babies’ dinner times, nd raced out to the hospital. I was just in time to ses the nurses delivering all the babies in Joan's wing on a long table affair on wheels, with the kids bawling their heads off. I won't tell Joan, but 1 had a hard time trying to identify our yvoungster. 1 leaned over the cart and looked at each one, and finally I had the choice nar- rowed down to three. because they all had on blankets like the one our baby wears. Then I thought I had ours picked out for sure, but at that moment a nurse came out of a room and grabbed up two bables, one under each arm. and told me to get away from there. Then she recog- nized me and said Junior already was in Joan's room TWhen I got back to the office they told me the boss wanted to see me. I went in and he asked me where the 1 had been.

Rochester, N. Y. 1 find my affection for- the flelds, flowers, woods and mountains a bene- diction during the July days I spend in Maine each year. Is there a more fruitful love than that of nature, or one less free from care and disappointment? Answer. — Yes. Wordsworth im- mersed himself in nature with the wis> passiveness of the heart that watches and receives. He cultivated those serene and elevated moods in which his affections gently led him on. He had the vision made quiet hy “the power of harmony and the decp power of joy."” His conclusion, given in “The Prelus * is that “by love subsists all lasting grandeur in man and in his works.” Yet he maintains that neither love of nature, nor even of man is suff- cient for human needs unless balanced b} still higher love: a < not wit we: Th2 vt "Gaores. bt ‘on” the knees of praver, 3 Bearing a tribute to the Almighty's throne.

YOU brush your teeth for gleaming whiteness. Yet they hold that yel- lowish tinge. You despair. Can’t you ever have gloriously white teeth? Yes, quickly —thanks to science. For now the cause of that stubborn ugly discoloration can be removed. In your saliva is a “liquid cement” known as Calculus. It glues to your teeth—then hardens. Becomes a glassy mask. Ordinary dentifrices can’t re- move it—you know that from your own experience. They gloss right over it. But this glassy mask is also an absorb- ent. It drinks in food, coffee and tobac- co stains. These give ita yellowish hue. Then you have a “yellow mask.” Be- neath, though, unmarred, is beautiful white enamel. Your dentist uses a substance known as “Tri-Calcium Phosphate” to erase this “yellow mask.” And now dental science, for the first time, has succeeded in embodying this magic substance in a pleasant, tasty tooth paste— ORPHOS.

LEADING STORES LONGCHAMPS was the Scene of the Revolt of the { $ Fashionables against the ; Fussy Mode : 2004By Sarah Vap Rensselaer. Always there is an air of expec- tancy hovering over Longchamps— not so.much over which horse will win as over what the fashionables will wear. For the French races, in the estimation of the many “in the know,” are nothing more than a huge fashion show. So be it. Every true Parisienne from the out-and-out fashionable to the perfectly groomed, decorous aristocrat makes her appearance. This season, for those who crave ex- citement, Longchamps provided it in the grand manner. ‘It was the scene of-a mild revolution by these mem- bers of the smart set against the “fussy” fashions. Elegant simplicity won ! But the heretofore seemingly un- important accessories—gloves, hosi- ery and underthings—had grown from a molehill into the proverbial mountain. The sylph-like tendency, of the silhouette had made the un- derwear problem one of elimination . —to a clinging underthing that con- forins to the lines of the normal figure. And the chic American woman, who is hardly distinguish- able from the Parisienne, solves this problem very ingeniously by wearing - a Kayser combination step-in. Of course, Kayser are the really clever people, for they foresaw the tendency of the mode and designed this intriguing underthing. But, then, they enjoy the reputation of being a bit in advance of the mode. They must have some secret entree behind the scénes of the Paris fash- ion show. Yet Kayser never sacri- fices style for quality—they still re- . tain the good old-fashioned quality that was demanded when style wasn't thought about very much. Even in that most important of accessories—gloves—worn by these same Americans, I was genially sur- prised to discover they, too, were made by Kayser. From the nonchal- ant, carefully careless one-buttoned glovas, stitched to resemble the hand-sewn, expensive original, to the' trim, smartly embroidered cuff glove. Of Kayser’s “Chameisette,™ that looks and feels exactly like kid and costs a great deal less. Washable, teo, which is quite an item if you stop to think that te have kid gloves cleaned ten times costs as much as a new pair of “Chamoisettes.”* In style they're not one whit different frem these of French make. It's very inspiring to find on for- eign soil this deference to things “American” where quality counts. America has a world-wide reputa- tion for the superiority of her prod- uets. Firms with high standards like these of Kayser have played a major role in creating this situation —if it can be called that. Heavens! I mustn't become so patriotic that I neglect to leave room to tell about the new hosiery, or rather the new shades in hosiery, that are of such paramount impor- tance to the perfect costuming. Every costume at the races had a harmonizing shade of hose. For all the world each pair might have been dyed to match or dyed to contrast— the effect was so subtle or striking. Trueé artistry, certainly, has been brought into the creation of these new shades. "Kayser has them all in their Fall showing. But Kayser hose has the - added virtue of quality. Every pair is made of 100% pure thread silk, full fashioned and 100% pure dyes. - No matter how fine the texture, Kayser hose wears and wears and wears. In devoting so much effort to quality and smartness, one would imagine that Kayser might overlook the “little things” which are of ob- scure importance except to the prac- ticed eye. But not Kayser! You'll find many evidences of thoughtful- ness. For. instance, to give a delicate grace. of line to the ankle, Kayser has designed the “Slipper-Heel"s— and the “Marvel-Stripe,”* another exclusive feature, prevents trouble- some garter runs. “ After all, though, the only way to really knéw Kayser underwear, gloves and hosiery is by wearing them—not by hearsay. Once you de, you always will. *Trade Marks Reg. ©J. K & Co.. 1926
