fIFTY:TWo GLASSES DO the work

NEW YORK, Nov 29.-The vaude-
Vile offering at the Central Baptist
church in West Forty-second street
last Sunday night was the musical
glasses, "the largest and most COM
plete set of musical glasses ever
played before the public" said the an
nouncement on the bulletin board in
the vestibule.
The regular congregation, increased
by persons that wanted a vaudeville
entertainment without going to Ham
merstein's listened to the manipula-
ton of the glasses by a little blond
man and seemed to be pleased.
There was no levity about the en-
tertainment which the Rev. Frank M.
Goodchild furnished his congregation.
It was all very staid and proper, and
the service switched from the Scripture
reading to finger work by the little
blond man easily and without a jar.
Pastor Goodchild has made up his
mind that he isn't going to let Sun
day night shows take his congregation
away from him without making fight,
and started vaudeville at the Central
Baptist with few stunts by young
woman whistler a week ago. The
whistling girl made such a hit with
the congregation that the success Of
the scheme was assured from the start.
Church in Theater District.
The church, on the south side of
Forty-second street, between Seventh
and Eighth avenues, is in the heart
of the theatrical district. The Lyric
and Belascos are just across the street,
Hammersteins at the corner, and the
New Amsterdam, Liberty, Hacketts
and the American to the west along
the same side of the street. The the
aters that gave Sunday night concerts
not only cut down the size Of Mr..
Goodchild's congregations, but some
times, in the summer, the songs Of the

Two Views Of tho Canal.

Many men In position to know
what they are talking about, among
them the late Coils P. Huntington,
have expressed the opinion that a
canal across the South American 18TH
mus would in the end disappoint the
hopes Of all who anticipate immense
benefits to the nation from a waterway
between the oceans. Perhaps these
oracles have spoken their real minds,
and then again interest or other mo-
tive may have colored their opinions.
AS success the canal must seriously
interfere with the colossal investments
in transcontinental railroads. AS a
failure it will swallow up millions Of
the peoples treasure and blast the ex
pectations of those who look forward
to the opening as revolution In the
marine transportation Of two heml-
spheres.
In direct opposition to the pessi-
mistic view cited above stands that
of the people of, this nation, view
wherein sentiment largely mingles
with practical considerations. 1t is i
national enterprise, one which by its
boldness and magnitude is worthy of
the American spirit. After weighing
all the arguments for and against the
canal the consensus Of opinion is that
the project is worth while and must
be put through at every hazard and at
any cost. But the typical American is
as thrifty as he is daring. He wants
his moneys worth whether the invest
ment be made for a return in kind or
for a dividend Of glory. The canal will
never lack for popular Endorsement
and support so long as the appointed
agents of the people are digging dirt
and doing it with as little money as
possible. In the end the people will
not cavil over the sources of supply of
labor and material, provided these
vital factors in the undertaking are
put to good use and the canal Is dug.

Oregon Refuses to Play the State
College
BOTH TEAMS CLAIM LAUREL WREATH
NEITHER ELEVEN HAS BEEN DE.
FEATED THIS SEASON
ON GRIDIRON.

II have no official challenge from
Pullman. Our season closes with the
Multnoman game Thanksgiving day.
No further games will be played. Guy
Mount, manager
This is the answer received from
Guy Mount, managr of the University
Of Oregon football team in answer to
query as to what action would be
taken on the challenge sent by Colo
mel Sapp Of Pullman for a game to be
played at Walla Walla to decide the
northwest championship.
The attitude Of Oregon means that
the championship of the northwest will
remain in dispute 1t required a game
between Pullman and Oregon to de-
eide the matter definitely. Those who
favor the Pullman team are confident
Oregon could be defeated, while the
supporters of Oregon are as confident
victory would have resulted had the
two teams met.
Faculty Is Opposed.
1t was hardly expected Oregon
would play a post season game, as the
faculty took the stand four Of five
years ago against these games, and
mas in the past refused to allow the
team to play after December 1. Ore
gon has but one game yet to play, the
club of Portland. This game will be
played at Portland and is the biggest
game the collegians play in the sea-
son.
Colonel Sapp wanted to play the
game after December 1, and owing to
tn stand taken by the Oregon faculty
it would be impossible to arrange the
game. Both teams have made fin erec-
ords this season. Pullman has not
been scored against, while Oregon has
not been DEBATED, the tie with Cor
wallis and the to 0 victory over Will
lamette being the closest games. Pull
man has defeated Whitman, Montana
and Idaho, while Oregon has won from
Willamette, Washington and Idaho.
Both teams have met and defeated ag-
gregations from various clubs, and on
paper it would be hard to determine
which team is the bitter. Oregon mas
one of the fastest teams in its his
tory. Pullmans team is not as fast
as it is strong and heavy. Both have

TRUE DEMOCRACY.
Possible Only When Men Come tc
Regard Their Work as a Public
Function.

The reorganization of property will
be neither practical nor fruitful ex-
cept in so far as it is accompanied
by a moral revolution in the communi-
ty at large, and especially in those who
control capital, says a writer in The
Century. At present business men
regard business as private func-
ton; and while, by their operations,
they are in effect determining the des-
TIMES of individuals and nations, deal
ing out prosperity or ruin, happiness
or despair, health or disease, through
out the civilized and uncivilized world,
their only conscious motive appears
to be to accumulate in their own
hands wealth and power. They, not
governments, really rule society; yet
they rule it without caring, almost
without knowing, what they are do
ing. To inquire into the ultimate So
cial effects of their operations would
seem to them irrelevant and beside the
mark They regard business as a
battle, government as the keeper of
the ring, and the prize Of victory as
simply and barely the acquisition of
wealth.
A society, so controlled, whatever it
may name itself, is oligarchic through
and through. There can be no true
democracy until men come to regard
their work, whatever it be, as pub
lie function; to view it in those far
reaching consequences and interactions
which alone give it significance and
nobility; and to care more about per-
forming it we'll than about the mate
rial benefits by which it may be re-
warded. That attitude of mind implies
an individualism not only compatible
with, but essential to, socialism. indie
pendence, self-reliance, initiative, these
qualities SO justly priced by Ameri-
cans, would be fostered, not suppressed,
by a properly organized social democ-
racy Only their inspiration and goal
will be not individual ACKNOWLEDGMENT,
but the welfare and the greatness of
the whole community. There is no an
tithesis between socialism and individ-
ualism. On the contrary, the one
conditions the other in the only sense
in which either is of value.

Cannery at Freewater.

r. T. Mclaughlin of Walla Walla,
company of Chicago, has introduced a
proposition to the Freewater CONNER
cial club whereby the ranchers of
that vicinity can secure a canning fac
tory. Mr.. McLaughlins idea is the
organization of a local company and
the company he represents is to con-
will be paid for when completed. The
capacity of the plant will be from TO-
900 to 10000 pounds per day. A
the fruit men and ranchers will be
present.

ragtime singers broke. in on church
service.
One night last summer when the
church windows were wide open and
show was going full tilt at the reg
ular vaudeville house on the corner
the organ began to play soft, low Of
fertory music and the four vestrymen
started the rounds with their baskets.
SUDDENLY there floated in through the
window snatches Of a song black
face artist was singing on the Victoria
roof: Il amt got no money, but I'm
goin' to git some, for my baby, my
honey, my Zulu Most of the people
in the congregation tried to look SOL
emn and pretend they hadn't heard
the ditty, but it wasn't any use. The
filters and chuckles ran all around the
church
1t was about that time that Mr..
Goodchild made up his mind that he
would have to enter into dignified
competition with the theaters and he
submitted to the trustees a scheme to
provide counter attractions that would
keep the people away from the thea
tiers and get them into the church.
The trustees gave DR.. Goodchi'd an
allowance for the purpose.
Musical Glasses.
Using fifty-two glasses tuned with
out water" as the card on the church
bulletin board read, the blond man
went through his stunt four times at
last nights service, working in front
of table to the right of the pulpit
He went at the job in brisk business
like way just after the pastor and
the congregation got through with the
responsive reading. First he played
'"The Lost Chord" After the offertory
he played 1.-The Palms, and during
other parts of the service he gave
Lead, Kindly Light" and Nearer, My
God, to Thee"
DR.. Goodchild says that anything
that will attract a crowd without mar
ring the sacredness of worship is per-
MISSILE and justifiable
DR.. Goodchild was annoyed by a
story in a paper last week which said
that his girl whistler was a profess
sional vaudevillian. ut was a SANDER"
said the pastor, heatedly. Everybody
that we will have here to perform will
be Christian, God-fearing worship
pers. That's just where we will draw
the line"
81 trust" said he, that our little adj
vertisement will be generally well re-
ceived. The music we will introduce
will be sweet, worshipful and godly
Surely there can be no objection to
the Introduction of instruments which
are ordinarily for the purpose of levi
ty but which may be consecrated for
a good purpose"
For next Sunday night DR.. Good
child has secured as headliner, a Miss
Sherman, violinist.
