and '.ufic! WEEK ENDING FEB. 19th, 1921 11,064 HUGHES AS CABINET MEAD. When President-elect Hardings an- nounced the appointment and aceeptance of Charles Evans Hughes as seeretary of state in his cabinet it was in accord with what had besn expected. Simce the eleg- tion MM Hughes has been regarded as the man most likely to receive the ap- pointment to what is regarded as the first place in the cabinet and certainly he-pos- sesses the ability not only to administer its duties but a personality that will in- pire confidence throughout the country us well as among ether natigns. It is a position of great impartance whieh has been fillid by men whe have left their mark, and it is 2 post of sueh responsibility that the head of a mation needs to exereise the greatest care in fil. ing it. Mr. Harding indicates, with much satisfaction that he has selected Mr, Hughes to assume the respensibilities of the office, not as a rubber stamp see- retary but one who will be responsible for the duties eonmected therewith. In other words Mr. Hughes is mot expected 1o do what he is told but what the. duties of the office require, and that is what he has shewn can be expected frem him. Mr. Hughes is 2 man of high standing throughout the natien whe came inte na- ionwide prominence because of the ser- e which he rendered ag govermor of New York state for (wo terms. Equally conspicuous was his service as a justice on the bench of the United States su- preme court from which plage he resigned to accept the republiean nemimation for president four years age. Standing high in the opinion of the eountry beesuse of the manner in which he hag demenstrated his ability to fill political offies and the zrasp which he has displayed of interna- -tional law, and the staunch stand which he has taken in behalf of American ideals his selection does credit to Mr. Harding, That it will be received with widespread approval Is eertain. NEW HEAD FOR YALE. Yale University corporation teok a long tim: to name the suceessor to Pres- ident Hadley. Tt ecannot be said that it did not cover the fleld and cover it ther- oughly and in the selection of Prof. James Rowland Angell, directer of the Carnegie Foundation, it is evident that it has selected 2 man whose qualifieationy for the important office eannot be dis puted. Since it has been intimated that Pres fessor Angell might be selected attention| hag been called to the fact that le is ne a Yale graduate and that his selectien would mean a departure frem past peli- cies, but whether or mot it may be een- sidered he is in teuch with the Yale view- point it is to be noted that Presilent ladley considers fim the man as his successor whén he says “Dr. #ell has a cembination of qualities which fit him admirably fer the headship of Yale. He is a teacher with a large ad- ministrative experience and 2 western man thoreughly familiar with eastern ideals. Jis work with the Carnegie eer- poration 2nd his headship of the Natignal a couneil have given him a bread ew of the educational questions which our colleges must face in the immediate future. Above all he is a man whase character. scholarship. and public spirit &re in line with the highest traditiens of the office.” That Yale has not hesitated in geing cutside its alumni in getting the man de- Eired for the place need not reflect upon | the alumni though it will stand te the credit of the corporation that it plaeed the welfare of the institution so high as to go after the man whe It was believed was needed, even though he happems te be a graduate of Harvard, Dr. Angell comes from stock that has gained an en- viable reputation in similar work and there are reasons for belisving that not anly has an excellent ehaice besn made in placing him at the head of Yale hut that he will prove to be the man needed to direct the university and make up for the loss sustaimed by the resignation et Dr. Hadley. HIGH HEELS. Authorities have for a long time main- tained that those who wear high heeled thoes are paying attention te style rather than to their physical eondition and that high heels” are detrimental. There are some who take such advies seriously and reform their foot ceveripgg but there are others who maintain that they have never been harmed by high heels, that they like them and intend to wear them just | ag long as they please, whether they are injurious or not. They are the gnes whe probably haven't as yet felt any bad ef fects and whe possibly are.able to over- come what is harmful te othe’s. But whether it happens to be detrimental in the Jong run it is plainly evident net eply from the walk of the individual but fyem the position of the foot that it is ummat- ural and that foot and other troubles might be expected to result therefrom. The effort in Massachusetts to get 3 law | against high heels amounted, hewever, to ne more than was expeeted. It was quickly dispesed of in an unfaverable manner to the petitioner. Legislatian of that charaeter any mere than legislatien which would restrict the kind of hair dve or the color of the face powder eeuyld hardly bé expected. Such reforms as are put inte effeet con- cerning the heels of the shoes must rest upon the public demand. There ean be no question if the people demand shges other than these with the high heels the manufacturers will be just ag aager te fyrnish them. They have put forth the Mgh heels and just as lang as there is call for them it ean be expected they will be manufactured. With advice of thase sugposed to know attacking the : ) 3 YUF ¥ yed.

That cause endless trouble and comfusion, and | if a state cammet have a daylight saving law it would be better that no fowm im it sheuld. It puts evervthing out of joiat where there is no uniformity the same as if part of the ppaple started the day at six and the rest at sevem and all expect to receive the same accammodatiens ‘as if they were starting at the same heuyr. The strong demand fer daylight saving in 'New York city indieates what weuld pre- vajl in that city under loeal optic and the reswlt would be that a great many ether cities and towns would be obliged 1o do as New York does because of the anlmn upen it. Massachusetts is ting for the repeal but seemingly with lesg stugegth than New York, though suc- ceas in the latter state might earyy ocon- siderable influence, especially in view of the irouclad pasition taken by New Hampshire againat it. But state legislation upen this aubject ‘was only resorted te because ef the lack of federal legiglation.: To bave eme or twe states adepting sueh a law and its neighhors prohibiting it makes just as mueh confusien as the idea of leeal op- [ tien. What is needed is 2 law that will cever 3 whole seetion of the ecountry where daylight saving is desired, sueh as that part under eastern time. Then there esuld he daylight saving that would avoid the trauble under the skipstep methed. F00 WELL PREFARED? 2 Just why (hers should have been such » display of violenee on the part of a New York manufacturer as te cause him to shoot and kill & detective and subse- aquently to sheot two others whe had ac- companied to the offiop the man killed still romains a mystery. The manmufac- urer claimed that it was & sad affalr and it appears all of that and mued more, The visit of the deteotive was one of several which he had made to the of- fice because of the theft ef the manu- facturer's autemebile over which there was an ‘added complication beeause the latter had given the wreng number for the stolen ear and afier he had coflected the insurance en the alleged stelen ca» it wag found where he sold it. This mix- up came frem. the wrong numbers, and concerning which the detective had calied. - The ressen aMeged By the manufactur- er far the keeping of a revelver and rifle in his office and also maintaining an alarm system in ease of a heldup was the fear of being robhed. Such precautions may have been advisable in view of the many raids succeszfully earried out in New York office buildings but in this in- stance his visiter was no steanger.

Having become se wrought up ever burglars and having magde such elaberate plans fer frustrating them it s pessible that the manufaeturer had jumped to the ‘wrong eonolusien and proceeged to take drastie measures at a time When neth- ing of the king was ecalled for.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR A Proposed Statement of Faith, Mr. Editor: This topic may seem outs side of the realm of editorial discussion, but, being copied fram a late matice in your paper, it must be, to some of your readers, a matter worthy of consideras tien. Hitherto, we believe, it has been the custom and practice for independent churches to formulate for the admdssion of members a statement of their ows; and (his has always been drawn up with great care, to the end that it might ex. press exactly the doectrines held by the as_understood by each particular church. However, at a national couneil of Con- gregational churches, held in Kansas City, Mo., in the year 1913, a statement of faith was formuiated which it was pro- pesed—in the interests of uniformity, should be used by all the churches of that denomination. The supposed benefit to be derived from this uniformity must at that time have seemed impertant, yet a correct ex- pression of the atatement itself should have been still more impertant, indeed we would say, all-important. Queting from the opening words of the new formula, which deals with the at- tributes of God, and in which the applis cant for membership 1s to be told what the church believes concerning God, we read, “We believe in God the Father, infinite in wisdom, godness and lave." As this ig all that is said of God the Fa- ther, almost ary Supday schqel echolar will miss the ribute of Holiness in this definition, though perhaps this was all that was designed to he said. Ag holiness expres that quality of God's nature which is infinitely pure and infinitely averse to all evil, this attribute includes the conception ef moral obliga- tion, probation and of sin; hence it eov- ers the whole doctrine of atonement and redemption from sin, in the individual #0d in the world. It is not necessary to quote the many passages in the Old Testament to sub- stantiate this, for the New Testament draws all its admonitions to personal hol- iness from that souice. . St. Peter in his first epistle to church members writes, “As he which hath called you is hely, so be ye also hely, in all manner of conversation, because it is written, be ye holy for I am holy.” And in the Apocalyptic visiom, th€ four living creatures are said te rest not, day and night, saying “Holy, hely, hely, Lord God Almighty, which was and is, and i to ecame!” With these references in mind it is Woild you have nerve enough to do this?
