It le the old stock argument, a habit of the mind. How readily do Noxious weeds encroach upon our mental garden and take firm root by that same persistant compelling law which gives continuity of life to the nolsome and mischievous weeds in our physical garden. The thought is ever father to the deed; Lord North- cliffe ie right, “if you don’t want war stop thinking war, disarm mentally | before beginning even the discussion of the limitation of arma.” ‘The truth ts we have become cap- tives in our mental dungeons; we aay fairly, we do not believe with any | degree of sustaining integrity.

For a thousand years “loved” the old hateful god who was outwitted by the Editor The Star: After reading an article in the Aug. 27 edition of The Star, entitled “Boose and the Yellow Race,” I have come to the conclusion that we are giving too much attention | to booze and souls that may be sold jrather than getting down to busi- ness of rescuing the souls that have alrendy been eold to the yellow race. The souls in mention are not of men sold for a drink of booze, but of young American girls who eel! | themeelves daily in order to make ja living. They are kept in hotels owned by Japs, on a 60-60 basis. We loyal Americans stand by with our eyes open, and let the yellow race settle down in our midst. They ‘build or buy hotels in our cities, |then by getting hold of our young | women, whom we allow to go down and out, and offering them nice clothes and a place to sleep, the wirl gives her body and soul.

With Mr. Erickson trying to saddle more taxes on us to pay for the street cars, and the mortgage on our rchool butldings over $11,000,000, nearly as much as is on the street railways, then must there be added to tided to the extended ride owing to the fact that I hed a transfer that cost 10 cents and should be sufficient to take me to my destination 1 couldn’t make him see that I was right and he wouldn't fesue the trantfer, whereupon I demanded its return and was compelled to wait for the next schedule, 16 or 30 minutes, which made me late reaching my Gestination te fill an appointment that meant much to me serpent: and all of this time we have been saying “the serpent did tempt me and I did eat.” And in the eating my eyes were opened to behold good and evil—good in myself and evil in my “enemy.” “Why shoulg I not kilt him; I being the superior, is it not in agreement with the law that the higher condemn the lower? T am not my brother's keeper, let him die." Bo said Nero, so sald Henry VIII, #0 said the inquisitors who sent to the stake Bruno, Joan of Arc and many more, The talk about God and heaven itn the past has all ended in the govern ment of men. Every priest may still, at heart, be @ king, but the Capitol of Liberty, the corner stone of which has long been laid, shall become the temple wherein the sequel to the rightful story of the tree of life shall become known to man.

W. H. SCOTT. The result being the standard of our womanhood and manhood is lowered. This automatically cripples America as a nation, while the Japs prosper both here and in Japan: Our officials look on while all this takes place.
