Lynch1ngs should be stamped out,
North and South, East and West. The
newspapers, the churches and all edu-
catiOnal forces should unite. Laws
can't be enforced with effect If pop
ular sentiment is against their enforce
ment. Anti-lynching sentiment must
be created by education. The pulpit,
the press, the forum and the school are
the institutions that can bring into ex-
lstence a stable, earnest, law-respecting
condition Of public mind. The process
may be slow, but 1t will be effective
The anti-lynching crusade should be-
come a national rather than a sectional
crusade. For, though 1t may be more
prevalent in some sections than in 9th
ers, there is evidence that defiance of
law can become a national disorder.

by1 II matters not so 1t is clean and

Note the optimists. Nine out Of ten

born to see the bright side. A hobby
well ridden will clarity your vision
and correct moral or mental strabis-
mus. You can't ride your hobby cross
eyed. The trouble with nost of us
is that we do not see the need of a
hobby until it is rather late to choose
one. We are going to be happy-some-
time. We need a touch of Bill Nye's
philosophy: Enjoy life while you
can, for you will be dead long time"
1t is pathetic fact that many of us
are dead long time before comes the
holiday we had promised ourselves.

Cactus Button Of Mexico

Certain of the Indian tribes Of Mexi-
co have a curious belief about the cac-
tus button. This Is a small apple of
a certain kind of cacti. Before 1t is
ripe it is plucked and pressed fat un-
til 1t is about the size of an American
50-cent piece, but of about half the
thickness. These cacti buttons are
sold at quite high price, because the
plant is somewhta rare and is found
only in high, rocky places, generally
difficult of access. This cactus has the
effect of leaving the most wonderful
and rose-colored dreams to him who
INDUCES in It,
The story Of the Indians is that
this cactus was once the food Of the
gods. The evil spirit stole 1t from
men who had found 1t and begun to
eat 1t. He did 1t in the steep noun
tains, where It was lost for many hun
dreds of years. But man, who was
born with a taste for 1t In his mouth,
never gave up the search for 1t until
at last he found It, 1t still has the
power to give one visions Of heaven,
it's ancient home.

MORAL AND SPIRITUAL STRIKE
By Or. PoIhemas n. Swift.

Every sane strike Is born Of de-
sire to better conditions or to break
the force of a trend toward worse con.

tends to drag men downward. There

that is moving ever upward. As we
face the moral and spiritual realm for
a moment we see abundant reasons for
new strike that will be worth while.
No soul is at a standstill. TO be salts.
fed with ourselves is to yield to the
downward Impulse. Every man Is con-
scIous that he might have done better.
There are some things that we ought
to strike for and there are some that
we ought to strike against with all our
hearts. We ought to strike for bet

above, for larger measure OF power
God has filled this old world of ours
with mighty forces. There is the might
Of steam, electricity, magnetism, fall
Ing water, chemical affinity, steel, sun.
light and a hundred others. As men
have ignored these forces they have re-
Inained savages. AS they have appro.
prlated and obeyed them they have
marched with steady step to higher
levels Of civilization. God has not
been less generous in the suiritual
world. We can be strong IL we will

touched our lives. Science says: "obey
the law Of the force and the force

every realm. Obey Jesus Christ and
he will I'LL you with power to strike

Every autumn thousands play foot
ball; hundreds OF thousands watch Il;
and almost all the participants and
spectators enjoy It The only cloud
over the game Is the belief which
some hold that football h more dan
gerous than other vigorous sports.
Anything Is dangerous TO which a
greater number Of accidents than oc-
cur In the normal course OF life can
be directly traced. The sailor pretend
ed that bed was dangerous place, be
cause many people die there, A year
ago a professor In Illinois University
investigated the statistics Of football
In sixty American colleges, TO discover
whether the common impression about
the game was well grounded. lie
found that In ten years. among two
hundred and ten thousand students en-
rolled In these colleges, twenty-three
thousand, or eleven per cent played
football. OF these only two hundred
md sixty were injured badly enough
10 lose any time from classroom duties,
Three were killed. In view OF the
large number OF students engaged in
the game, the professor considers the
number permanently injured so
small as to be a practically negligible
quantity" He finds that in all good
institutions football Is adequately
supervised by the authorities. and that
college officers approve tho game In
the ratio OF twentyeeven to one.
Finally, accident insurance statistics
show that many other sports are more
dangerous than football. The case for
football rests on the broad reason for
all vigorous, manly sport: young men
take to such sport naturally, and they
need It not only for their physical WELL
being, but for their moral steadiness.
As President Eliot OF Harvard has
said. athletics are a moral safeguard
in discharging the high energies Of
youth.

DANGER OF IGNORANT PlETY.

The supreme danger of the church Of
Jesus Christ to-day, as always, is not
from without, but from within. 1t is
the danger of willfully ignorant piety.
Ignorance that is humble and longs for
knowledge has all the future Of bles-
sedness. But willful ignorance is al
ways essentially narrow, joyless, un-
social and cruel.
The only thing that can save us,
and with us the world, Is faith in the
