Modern Idols and Their Overthrow.
Lux. II. 1921; Phil. 3. 17.19.

Luke IL. 1921; Phil 3. 17-1s.
Idols are things that take Gods
place in our thoughts and hearts.
Strange that there should be such a
strong tendency in human nature to-
ward idolatry. Whenever we regu-
late our lives with reference to win
ming pleasure, popularity, material
riches, or anything else, and not with
reference to pleasing God, We become
idolaters. Not only did the lsraelites
at Sinai worship a golden calf, DuL
multitudes to-day worship at the
shrine of Mammon.
Love of money. Mammon en-
throned on the heart. how incon-
gruous Shall he remain there or
shall imperlshable riches have the rule
OF tae inner man?
Love of amusement. "a good time"
this is the watchword OF many a
youth. The worship of pleasure is
char acteristic of our day. Too often
it Is Satan's kiss that lures it's victim
toward promised bliss, but later lashes
him into fury. 1t Is that peace
which the world cannot give"-God's $
peace, Christ joy-that alone can
drive out this idol, so strongly in
trenched.
Love of Fame. Not the lazy does
this god seek out; not the listless and
Indifferent. Rather it singles out the
aspiring, the energetic, the pushing.
A towering, vault!ng ambition fur
nishes pedestal for his dlgnity's high
behest
An Array Of Idols These are the ap-
petites and lower passions. II any one

these petty idols asail us from within
and from without. Foods thai are un-
wholesome, drinks that are ruinous
clothing that burdens and pampers
pride, ornaments that unduly tax time
and strength and disposition, hours OF
revelry, companion ships that corrupt
the soul-these hosts of idols and their
allies may well alarm us and drive us
toward our tower OF safety. Through

The True Sentiment-Germa Scientists
Advise Strongly Against the Drinking
ot Beer by Students-Evil Effects Ap
parent at a Glance.
Professor Edward Meyer. one Of the
German savants Of note who are studvine
educational conditions in the United
States. while speaking before the Univer
sity of Chicaoo. took occasion to say that
the beer drinking of German students is
good custom.
1t is verv gratifying. saws the Union Sig
nal, that in order TO offset this statement
We can quote the words &C. another member
OF the same party. Professor Joseph Koh
ler who on the following dav spoke to the
students of Northwestern University. said
II take exception to Professor Never in
his advice given yesterday; do not follow
his advice: do not drink beer. leave all
strong drink alone. Although drinking il
more prevalent in the fatherlaud than il
your country TEMPERANCE is always urged
By our best educators, leaders of the peo
pie"
Professor Kohler made this statement 10
the presence Of Professor Never. and 1t
was received with applause, and Professor
Meyer did not take issue with his compa
triot Professor KOhler is supported in
his position by many prominent Germans,
among them Professor Won Hartman and
DIR. Forel
Another German scientist writes: "Se
far as pathological LESSONS are concerned
no appreciable difference exists between
beer drinkers and those who are addicted
to the stronger alcoholic liquors Further
more. the idea that beer drinking would
largely do away with the use Of brandy,
whisky, etc, has proved fallacious so far
as Germany is concerned"
Professor Delbrueck has olso made some
assertions concerning the use of beer which
correspond with the belief of those in out
own country who, from study and observa
tion. have gained correct knowledge OF It's
harmful effects.
We may well quote from leading Chi
cago daily which. in commenting upon this
subject. says "In a very large proportion
of cases the evils OF beer drinking are man
ifest at the first glance. In the rest of the
cases evil may well be suspected. The
American student may set it down that the
less drinking he does the more he will
profit by his college life"
In our country the time certainly has
gone BY when beer drinking is commended
and this is especially true when taken in
connection with the habits and welfare OF
the students in schools or colleges,
