Of brain as we'll as sweat of brow.

Franklin and Edison in their inven-
tons. God makes some men to paint
pictures, some men to write songs and
some men to sing songs. Some men
are called to use axe and hammer,

right aim and object in view that
man as truly as any minister Of Jes-
IT'S Christ is minister Of God in
harmony with the orderly movement
Of the universe.

for all these words mean the same

compass is nothing more NOT less than
simply being man.

adjusts labor and earnings, which
regulates production and distribution,
which relates OH principles Of fair

never really conflicting interests or

There is civic salvation. 1t comes
through the ballot. 1t is cast for
competent, patriotic and upright men
who will defend in our legislatures
the rights Of the people and grant
them further rights now unjustly
held by graft and greed.
There is a social salvation. 1t con-
stitutes given community, cooper
ative brotherhood in all those man.
ncrs, customs and relationships which
promote the well-bcing of all.
