ROAD REFORM
Instructive Bulletin From the De-
partment of Agriculture.

Instructive Bulletin From the De-
partment of Agriculture.
Neso York Sac, Special Se,uios .
Washington. Jan. 30.-Good roads are
treated OF in a bulletin soon to be dis
tributed by the agriculture department.
The hope is expressed that before many
years all roads In the United States used
for heavy traffic will be macadamized,
graveled, or otherwise improved, The alb
sence in many places of rock, gravel or
other hard and durable substance with
which to build good roads, and the excess
sive cost Of such roads where suitable
material is scarce, will necessitate the
use OF earth roads for many years to-
come, Under favorable conditions the
earth road is the most elastic and sat-
isfactory for pleasure and light traffic
The bulletin will state that the aim in
making good road is to establish the
easiest, shortest and most economical line
Of travel. and 1t is desirable that roads
should be firm, smooth, comparatively
level and fit for use at all seasons of the
year. They should be properly located SO
their grades will he such that loaded
vehicles may be drawn over them without
great loss Of energy; properly construct
ed, the roadbed graded, shaped, rolled and
surfaced with the best available ma terial.

CHRIST not DIVINE
This the Assertion of Pearson, the
Chicago .sHeretic.''
NO RESURRECTION OR ASCENSION
Northwestern University Professor
Writes am Extremely
Radical Book.

Special to The Journal.
(. Chicago. Jan. 30.-Professor Charles w.
Pearson. of Northwestern university, has
written book named "The Carpenter
Prophet In 1t he goes beyond anything
that he before has written or said touch
virgin birth, the miracles, the resurrec-
tion and the ascension into heaven.
Professor Pearson absolutely denies the
divinity of Christ save in the sense that
all men Of noble qualities Of mind and
heart have in them a spark Of divinity.
This denial, in the face of: the Methodist
articles of belief. makes Unitarian OF
Professor Pearson. He states specifical-
ly that Christ was a great leader, a great
teacher in fact, the true elder brother OF
mankind, but that he was of human. birth
and of lineage like unto. other men, :
One long chapter is devoted t0bthe mir
acles. They are rejected root and branch.
The Methodist teaching holds that with
out the resurrection of Christ the whole
fabric falls to the ground. DR.. Pearson
repudiates the resurrection as strongly as
he does the virgin birth. He maintains
in rather terse language that the story
of the resurrection is myth.
He takes up the different attributes of
,Christ's character and treats them separ-
ately, but always with the understanding
between his reader and himself that they
are the attributes Of human being who
was practically perfect and godlike, but
was human being STILL The friendli-
ness of Christ is the main theme of one
of the most sympathetic chapters Of the
book
: Still another chapter bears the simple
caption Prayer He does not hold that
prayer is directly answered, but he does
hold that if no other good can come from
praying than the relief which it gives to
the burdened mind and conscience the
simple act of praying is beneficial and
strengthening. In speaking of the book
a friend of Professor Pearson said:
1.-THE Carpenter Prophet is the work of a
man who. while. he does not believe that
Christ was God, has been able to present the
beauties Of the life of Jesus and Of his teach
ings in way that is more lovingly sympa-
thetic by far than are books of many of So
called orthodox writer's.

Ne,v York Sus Special Servtos
Washington, Jan. 30.-The new bill max

1t provides that all the employees of the

Scientist Claims That Pure Liquor

Special to The Journal.
. Chicago, Jan. 3o.-For good digestion
and a healthy stomach table wines and
beer are regarded as beneficial agents by
Professor Albert P. Mathews of the Chi
cago. university, Dr. Loeb's chief assist,
ant in his discoveries in science. He told
the members Of one Of his classes that al
cohol in moderate quantities had no evil
effects on the stomach, but rather slim
ulated the digestive process. Even where
bad results follow the excessive use Of
liquors the injuries, according to Profess
sor Mathews, are due to impurities in the
liquors rather than the alcohol.
