down and disease will set up. No ap-

A Warning For Would Be Swimmers

"A "arn1Q fOr would BE Swimmers.
The hot season brought with it the
Inevitable swimming disasters, one Of
which serves to point a moral. Two
young fellows set out to teach a novice
how to swim. They used the ancient
argument Of primary instinct and in
short told the youth that he must get
into deep water and "strike out" The
rest would be easy.
Having faith in instructors who had
mastered the art, the youngster pfung-
ed from a boat into ten fathonrs Of wa
ter and, finding himself all at sea, of
course struggled and screamed and
sank, as was perfectly natural. His
preceptors tried to rescue him, but he al
most carried one Of them down and
finally sank to rise no more. The har-
rowing incident should be a lesson to
all swimmers. A person who is fright
ened cannot learn to swim.
Fear of sinking causes the swimming
novice to try to raise himself, and the
effort only plunges him in the deeper.
Water has power to sustain the human
body with but little effort aside. but
the body must rest fiat and be partly
immersed. Position is everything to
the swimmer, but the strokes are sim
ple-hat is, strokes enough to keep the
body afioat and moving. 1t is rue
that a person must have a certain
depth Of water in order to swim. But
unless he is accustomed to water and
to deep wading. with rescuers at hand,
he should not take the first lesson
where it is more than breast deep.
Whatever the depth, a total absence of
fear is the first requisite in learning
to swim.

A Big Success ON Slender Capital.

Recently a man was selected for an
important commission in one of the
great municipalities Of this country
who began life with no capital be-
yond character and a good business
handwriting. The salary Of the new
position is $4,000 a year, and he may
have a life tenure If he chooses. This
Incident might pass with hundreds Of
others Of like nature but Cor a single
feature of it, which carries a hint for
young men starting in the world. There
were no such aids as politics and per-
sonal pull" behind this appointment.
The selection was made for merit. The
appointee has labored forty years In a
narrow field in the strange city which
he adopted as his home at the end of
the war, where he served as Il private
soldier.
The traits which brought this man
to the top and landed him some years
ago in a $4,000 commercial position
were ceaseless industry and rugged
honesty. He worked after office hours
II the interests Of the business demand
ed it without waiting to be asked, He
investigated profits and losses on his
own hook and when he found flaws in
the methods of management pointed
them out fearlessly. Men Of this type
are not loved by their fellow employ
ees, and he had to fight his way. But
he was always right and refused to
compromise on any but true business
principles. His first promotion was to
the office Of secretary Of the corpora
ton. Then he became vice president
and finally president, which office he
held when the city discovered in him
the right man for a public commission
er. 1t is common nowadays to sheer
at old fashioned probity and declare
that it doesn't pay or doesn't exist.
On the contrary, probity is the keynote
Of every really successful career.

DR.. SCUDDER LECTURES
BACK EAST ON HAWAII

Last evening in the South Congre-
gational church, "Hawaii's Plan in
the Progress of the Kingdom of God"
was the theme of Rev. Doremus
Scudder, D. d., of Honolulu, repre-
senting the American Missionary Asso-
citation. New York. In substance he
said: Some fifty years ago the United
States government sent Commodore
Dupont to the Pacific world, and in his
report to Congress he said of Hawaii,
ut is impossible to estimate too highly
the value or Importance of the Sand
witch Islands whether from a CONNER
cial or military point of view" No
naval man today thinks of disputing
this proposition, the nation that holds
Hawaii dominates the Pacific. The
commercial future of the islands is
guaranteed by their strategic location
as the sole transhipment center in the
great ocean of the twentieth century.
The mighty proportions of the inter-
continental trade between Asia, Austria
liza and the Americas, those vast I'M
exploited lands whose peoples are to
rule the future. no prophet can for
see. The Panama canal will make Ha-
wall the focal point OF all. Can we
go farther today than Dupont did and
add to his declaration that lit is i'm
possible to estimate too highly the
value or Importance of Hawaii from the
standpoint of the kingdom of God?'
But present day conditions speak
more loudly even than historic indi-
cations. The cruX of the Christian sit
uation is Eastern Asia. The ultimate
life and death struggle of the religion
of the Nazarene Carpenter is already
Joined. If it fails here it is doomed.
And in a very real sense Hawaii holds
the key to Asia. Missionary work in
China and Japan has for the most part
touched only the cities. The backbone
of each of these mighty empires is it's
farmers. the men who for Japan won
the victories in Manchuria. the universal
achievers of history. This mighty force
has as yet been practically unaffected
by the missionary enterprise. 1t is
hard to get at. But 10, at the very
psychologist moment in the mightiest
battle OF the kingdom, God takes 1000

AUTOMOBILE RATES AT ToNoPAH

'Tonopah is the place where money
circulates," remarked R. E. Mulcahey,
stock broker. Il was over there the
other day with several friends. and at
o'clock in the afternoon We engaged
an automobile to take us to BuIIfrog.
We could have taken a train as far as
Goldtield the next morning, but we did
MT want to wait. 1t is a 12-hour trip
by automobile from Tonopah to Bull
frog, and we decided we should be able
to stand the strain. So we summoned
the automobile.
Whats the TARIFF" asked the
chauffeur as we We're about TO start.

'Ha, ha! Pretty good joke 1 said.

Three hundred dollars he repeat

does not threaten martial white SUI
premacy. The Eastern Asiatic as a
great war power is not to be feared.
But industrially he is bound to dom1-
nate the white if the era of cut-throat
competition is destined not to merge
into that of cooperative brotherhood.
In a word the Anglo-Saxon can win
only through Christi victory of love-
We in Hawaii realize this industrial
menace We know the Chinese as the
mainland does not. Yet we do not fear
him but welcome him as a brother.
Asia in Hawaii also threatens our
Americanism. We have more than 5000
American born Asiatics there, citizens
of the Union, far outnumbering US
white Americans. Some fifty Buddhist
temples teach the children of Japan
among US to reverence first the rising
sun flag. The only antidote is the
church of the Lord Jesus with its
larger education. Our most serious po-
Iftfcal question on the islands is how to
inspire with American ideals our Ash
attic electorate.
Religion also has its special bat
tie in Hawaii Is Buddhism or Christi
anity to prevail there? The Territory
holds more schools teaching this Far
Eastern cult than it has schools fncul-
eating Christian truth. No wonder the
battle of social vice is fiercer there than
anywhere in the mainland. The men
ace of Asia is a real thing to US.
But we think little of this menace
because of the compensating promise.
Asia in Hawaii is Americas oppor-
tunity. Hawaii already touches vitality
two continents. The Chinese boycott
was made possible by Hawaii, which
thus laid one hand on the American
mainland and the other upon China.
This is but a symbol of the outreach
of her influence. If the church of God
will rise to the occasion and win to
Christ the splendid young farmers who
crowd to the shores of our new Ter
ritory, an ever widening stream of Ash
attic missionaries will carry the gospel
to their homelands far more effectively
than men of our blood can ever hope
to do. Commodore Dupont would have
been a rare prophet if he had added
that Hawaii's chief pre-eminence was
to prove her Strategic relation to the
progress of the Kingdom of God.
No other church owns the oppor-
tunity in Hawaii because none other
/ possesses our fruitage of So years of
/ spiritual sacrifice. None other holds
! the vast material resources in meet
/ ing houses, church sites and school
property which are ours. None other
has the deep heart love which the
people lavish upon the old-time mis-
sionary movement. God calls the Con-
gresatiOnal church of America to arise
seize its heritage on the islands and use
it for the Kingdom.
The time of crisis is here. One year
, ago the American Missionary Associa-
ton heard the plea of the Congrega-
tional churches of Hawaii for closer
utilization to the church of the main
land and for financial aid in the great
task which is beyond the power of the
little handful of Christian men OF
