This familiar argument for higher pay for thers was written in the year 534 by King Athalric, cednant of barbarian Goths, in a letter addressed to the a of Rome. He was making for the teachers of his the self-same plea that may be heard in almost any community in America. | eningien | ovaalty appearing slong the cutane |ralgic pains over the area of the |The gruption occurs usually in the WAIT TILK SoU'RE THROUGH SHAVING MG AND THEN You CAN VUST WITH YOUR FRIGND ON “uy LOR L Conducted Under Direction of Dr. Rupert Blue, U. 8.

BY DR. FRANK CRANE (Copyright, 1920, by Wrank Crane) childish mind, the petulant conclusion of pessimism, that God is indifferent. Ue The Three Friends, “Job’s Comforters,* were the fathers of all them that think im” unison. ‘Theirs was the cheap and easy” explanation: ‘This woe has come upon you because you sinned.” In spite ofits utter absurdity, in spite of > the fact that*the righteous, kind and loving suffer vastly more than the selfish and vicious, the majority of mankind still follow, ~ the view of the three smug Comforters, It was Job himself that had the vision, He glimpsed \the solution. It was, that the moral thing in the unix verse is Man. Events are not just. Nature — is pitiless, “red in tooth and claw.” The world’s Neros live in golden houses; the world’s Christs\ are “men of sorrows and acquainted with,grief.” And Man has faith, he believes in th Eventual Justicey he insists that the Creato is godd, not becartse this is proved by but because it is contradicted by events. Morality in mam is his eternal protest, His faith is the\ eternal triumph of his moral nature. His highest spiriteal peak is not the bane quet table, it is Calvary. He is moral, not when he says, “I believe, because all is well, and { am prosperous.” _~ He is moral only when he cries, “Tho B slay me, yet will I trust Him!” Not in the sun nor the sea, not in th laws of Nature nor the train of events but in the Soul of Man, and there alone, the Undying Fire. ven Q My owe and checks are and covered lot of yellow A.
