Among the proceedings was the deci- sion to erect a monument to the Fox sistefs, |" “founders of modern spiritualism.” Continued recognition of the Fox sisters—Margaretta, Kate, Maria and Leah —who began their famous seanees at Hydesville, N. Y., in 1848, appears some- what strange, in view of the fact that Mar- garetta later confessed that their “spirit rappings” were fraudulent, being pro- duced by their ability to disloeate their joints at will with a loud cracking noise, She afterwards appeared on the stage in many cities exposing and demonstrating these frauds. With the Fox seances as a beginning, however, spiritualism spread like wildfire and gained many adherents in America and Europe. Many .eminent.men have been convinced that communication with the spirits of the dead is possible. 4 The great body . of. scientifie -men, however, are skeptical, while generally maintaining an open mind regarding this, as they do concerning other ideas and theories which have not been definitely proved to be erroneous. In the light of present knowledge most rational persons consider spiritualism as plain bunk, SMALL TOWN. FACTORIES No community and no state ever he- came fully prosperous through agriculture alone, declares T. R. Preston, former presi- dent of the American Bankers Association, who is a strong advocate of combining in- dustry with agriculture by locating fac- tories in the smaller communities. Mr. Preston cites particularly the small.cities and towns of North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Ohio as affording exeel- lent examples of such combination. He points out that industry and agriculture are well balanced with the result that the farm problem is less acute in those states. The idea of locating new factories in towns and villages, instead of further eon- centrating them in congested centers of population, is spreading throughout the country, and some of the largest factories are now so located. An example is Kings- port, Tenn., with only a few thousand pop- ulation, yet boasting the largest hook printing plant in the world, besides other important industries. The benefits derived from this de- centralization of industry is seen in an in- creased market for loca] farm products, employment of surplus labor, elevation of living standards for both farmer and fac- tory employe, increases in taxable wealth, better schools and other public facilities, Sreiiaeroe sree ete THE BEAUTY THAT IS WASHINGTON’S Luckily the.

PERSONAL‘EXPERIENCE The Senate has displayed remarkable knowledge of the stock market in fixing up its legislative devices to regulate “mar- gins” rules for limiting loans and curbing speculation. Maybe some of the Senators gained persona] experience in 1929—like the rest of us.

Part Two, Nov the Pharisees received these lessons from our “" %.ssour seornfully; for they were rich, und cuvetous and thought themselves superior to all mankind, As a warning to them, Christ related thie Parable:—-OF DIVES ADD LAZARUS. : ‘There was a certain richman who was clothed in pur- ste und fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day. And there wae a certain beggar, named Lazarus, who was laid at tie gate, full of sores, and desiring to be fed with the -rumbs whieh fell from the rich man’s table. Moreover the dogs.came and licked his sores. ‘And it came to pass that the Beggar died, and was tarried oy the angels into Abraham’s bosoum— Abraham »d peen a very goud man who lived many years oefore at tim>, and was then mn Heaven, The rich man alse ‘iad, ¢nd was buried. And ip Hell, he lifted up his eyes 13ing in torments. snd saw Abraham afar oft, and Laza- rus. And he cried and said. ‘Father Abraham have mercy: mm me, and send Lazarus that he may bat the tip of his: ‘inger in water and cool my tongue, for | am tormented n this flame But Abraham said, Son, remember that thy life time thou reeeiveds’t good things, and likewise Lecerus evil things, But now, he is comforted, and thou art tormented,’ * * * 4D among other Parables, Christ said to these same Pharizees, because of their pride, That two men once went up into the Temple, to pray; of whom, one was a Pharisee. and one a Publican, The Pharisee said, ‘God 1 thank Thee, that 1am not unjust as other men are, or bad as this Publican is!” The Publican, standing afar off would not lift up his eyes to Heaven, but struck his breast. and only said, God be merciful to me, a Sinner!” And God —our Saviour told them—would be merciful to that man rether than the other, and would be better pleased with his prayer, beeause he made it with a humble and a lowly heart. . The Pharisees were so angry at being taught these things, that they employed some spies to ask Our Saviour questions, and try to entrap Him into mre something which was against the Law. The Emperor of that coun- try, who was called Caesar, having commanded tribute- money to be regularly paid to him by the people, and being ervel against any one who disputed his right to it, these spies thought they might, perhaps, induce our Saviour to say it was an unjust payment, and so to bring himself under the Emperor’s displeasure, Therefore, pretending to be very humble, they came to Him and said, “Master you teach the word of God rightly, and do not respect persons on account of their wealth or high station. Tell us, is it lawful that we should pay tribute to Caesar?” . . s CHRIST, who knew their thoughts, replied, “Why do you ask? Shew me a penny.” They did so, “Whose image, and whose name, is this upon it?” he asked them. They said “Caesar's.” “Then,” said He, “Render unto Caesar. the things that are Caesar’s.” - Bo they left Him; very much enraged and disappoi that they could not entrap Him. But our Saviour ki their hearts and thoughts, as well as He knew that other men were conspiring against him, and that he would soon be put to Death. hee ee i AS he was teaching them thus, he sat near the Public Treasury, where ple as they passed along the street, were accustomed to drop money into a box for the r; and many rich persons, passing while Jesus sat there, had put in a great deal of money. At last there came a Widow, who dropped in two mites, each half. a farthing in value, and then went quietly away. Jesus, see- ing her do this as he rose to leave the place, called his dis- ciples about him, and said to them that that poor widow children, born in Ireland.
