Many of Europe's great newspapers
have special correspondents in the
United States all the year round.
Some of them have two representa-
tives. Two or three of Europe's mag
azines have regular monthly letters
from this country, devoted to political,
social and industrial conditions. In
the steadily enlarging field of Amer
ica's activities this interest will con-
tinue to increase. Reciprocally, too,
our concern in the doings of all the
other countries must continue to
grow. The world no longer has any
hermit nations. China is said to be
offended because We sent only a part
of Admiral Sperry's squadron there on
it's world tour, instead of the whole
Of it, as we did to England's posses
sions in the Pacific and to Japan.
Thus we see that the new prominence
of the United States carries duties
and responsibilities which demand a
larger equipment among our officials
than was necessary at a time within
the easy recollection of most of our
people.

WILL VOTE WHEN
GOD IS NATIONS KING
Reformed Presbyterians Will
Not Use Suffrage.

New York, Nov 14.--Until the con-
stitution of the United States shall
contain in it's text recognition of the
supreme kingship of God through Je-
sus Christ and of the existence of His
code of law, all true Covenanters as
the members of the Reformed resby-
terrain church in this country style
themselves, will refuse to vote on cleo
ton days, and will continue to owe al
legiance to no government save the
spiritual communion Of Christ.
This tenet of the sect and the rea-
sons why this tenet was held were ex-
pounded by the Rev. F. NJ. Foster, pas
tor of the Third Reformed Presbyter-
ian church.
The male portion of the audience
represented an element in the roll of
voters in the Seventh Assembly Dis
trict, over which political leaders have
shaken their heads and shrugged their
shouldersmen who simply would not
vote under any emblem.
I'VE ask nobody's sympathy" said
the pastor, when we urge that Christ
is king, and that since the United
States government will not recognize
the kingship. we are deprived OF the
right of being citizens of the United
States

Divinity of Universe
PoStulate of Science

Editor of the Palladium:
An apprecitive Indiana reader sends
me clipping containing a report of
the action of the Y. w. c. A. in eX-
Guiding Universalists and others from
membership because of certain alleged
views. The charge was made that the
Universalists do not believe in the
divinity of eJsus. l would like to
ask if anyone can furnish any state
ment made by any Universalist, that
Jesus was not divine? On the other
hand we believe in the divinity of
man and nature. If God created all
then all is potentially or actually di-
vine. Mans errors are only skin
deep, and are the result of ignorance.
The essential divinity OF the Universe
is the postulate of science and philos-
ophy. Excluding good people from a
religious movement is not wise. His
tory shows that this method has al
ways been a mistake. One of the d.
vine precepts taught by Jesus is

divinity while we are disobcying him ?

Women Seek Courts Opinion
on Divorce in "Freak" Letters

pathetic. Many others are equally lu-
dicrous. In some of them the allega-
tons are so absurd as to bring smiles
to the face of the dignified judge.
Others move him to indignation. 1t
is safe to assert that these letters bear
superficial evidence that they are the
outpourings from broken hearts.
Some women write to the court and
ask advice. They recite stories Of
averred inhuman treatment and ask
the court to tell If a divorce ought to
be sought. Others ask the court to
call the offending husband before him
and talk it over" and see IL he can
not be induced to change his custom
airy treatment toward his wife and
family. In some instances the chill
dren write to the judge. They are
keen observers of things domestic and
realize the hard feelings existing be-
tween father and mother They know
they suffer the most by the estrangc-
ment and write to the court for aid.
And what does the court do, may be
asked.
He consigns all letters to the scrap
basket. He can do nothing more.

Children Should Not Be Forced
To Work, Say Minis
tiers.
EDUCATION is NECESSARY.
BOYS AND GIRLS ARE TAUGHT TO
WORK IN SCHOOLS AND ExPER-
FENCE GAINED HERE WILL BE
GOOD IN AFTER LIFE.

Should a boy or girl at sender
age be forced to go out into the world
and earn living for a dependent fam
aly?"
This question was recently put to
four we'll known local ministers, the
Rev. E. G. Howard, the Rev. Samuel
Traum, the Rev. R. ]. Wade and the
Rev. Joseph Beck. All admitted that
it was question which they had CIV
en- but little consideration but said
that the rule should be, "let every
boy and girl finish his or her high
school course before attempting to
earn a living from the world"
When the boy or girl should begin
to be a wage Garner depends mostly
on their surroundings and the kind
of work." said the Rev. Mr.. Howard.
Il do not believe that a child should
work to the exclusion of its school
should be taught to be idle. l began to
earn a living for myself when only
thirteen years of age, but did not ne
elect my education. If the only able
bodied individual in a destitute fam
lily is boy of twelve years of age,
do not think he should be forced to
become a wage Garner at the cost Of
his education. What remedy would I
suggest in such a case? Well, l admit
1 can not suggest one"
Should Get Education.
The Rev. Wade stated that children
should not be forced to work until
they had completed their high school
course. They should have that much
education even if they are to become
factory employees or street workers.
Children should be taught to work in
the schools" he said.
Il have not given the question much
thought" stated the Rev. Mr. Beck.

rule in this case should be that chill

school course before becoming work.
! ers." He offered no remedy for a case
where small boy would be expected
| to be the wage Garner of destitute
family.
"a boy or girl should not be thrown
out into the world until they have
completed their high school course
! but it is hard to fix an arbitrary rule
! when children should start to work
If the only able bodied person in a
destitute family is a boy of twelve
years of age he should not be forced
to support the family at the expense
of his education. His future, in other
words, should not be blighted,' said
the Rev. Mr.. Traum. Such a boy as
1 have described stands as much in
need Of an education as a boy in more
fortunate circumstances. He should
be permitted by all odds to at least
complete his high school course anc
the family should be cared for by the
state.''

bodiment of the stage. He was born
in the atmosphere of the stage, two
actresses had to do with his success
and his surroundings throughout his
life were of the theatre. His enor-
nous successes have led to the belief
that he was only after temporal and
contemporary fame and he got 1t, to
the extent of a fortune, castles, deco
rations, popular acclaim. and the
doubtful honor of the Academy. All
the world was his. Nor did he con-
fine his operations to France, or to
be more accurate, to Paris, only. He
delighted Russian audience with plays
which a blase gallic audience would
have found too obvious. America did
not escape. His IL Oncle Sam" was
the product of his striving after in
ternational fame. Indeed all the
countries of Europe have paid tribute
to him.
And now it seems that his was
merely a temporary success. His
plays were tinctured with the essence
of timely appropriateness which must
soon make them back numbers. A
problem play which deals with the
time only and does not call for uni
versal sympathy is built on too flimsy
basis.
However, it must be confessed that
his enormous pecuniary success has,
in the main, SO soured modern critics
that it is more than unfair to take
their estimate seriously. Sardou's
influence on modern drama is more
than evident and his followers are do
ing good work. 1t is not fair, then,
to dismiss the man with faint praise.
He was a master of his craft and

his work which appealed so INCH to
moderns has obscured greater features

be left to the test of time.

JUDGE LINDSEY WINS.

The triumph of Judge Lindsey in
Colorado has been remarkable in the
extreme. He has been a conspicuous
figure in the land since his adoption
of the unique methods in his juvenile
court have become widely known. 1t
was his fate in the last election to
have the grafters of both parties
against him. And he won.
That terrible campaign pamphlet of
his, "The Rule of Plotocracy in Colo
rado," did it's work. The facts were
so evident and so well known that it
can hardly be called muck raking."
Suffice it to say that the people arose
and paid the judges expenses despite
the most malignant attacks upon his
character. The public service corpo.
rations all waged war on him, the liq-
uor interests, and the dive keepers
Why? Because he stood for law en-
forcement which would hurt their
business.
In speaking of his election the New
York Post says: Judge Lindsey
must take this as call to the higher
and more difficult task of cleaning VI
Colorado politics. That task he be
gan when he got the Denver schoo
children to swear on flag day: I will
not remain silent if know of dishon
esty in public affairs. l will put
forth every effort to have the guilty
public official exposed and punished.
1t now appears that he will not have
to wait until the generation under hi
care shall have grown up. Colorado
air is very clear even for old eyes"

"Oh, yes, l get them quite often,
but l have not seen fit to save any
of them. They are not worth it, re-
piled Judge Fox of the Wayne circuit
court when asked if he receives many
freak letters. 1t was not long ago
that a Philadelphia judge fined a man
for writing him a letter of thanks for
a favorable decision. The Judge held
such action was contempt of court.
There is practically no probability of
such extreme measures being resort
ed to locally. .-
The most of the letters received by
the local courts are from women.
This may seem strange, but it is a
fact. And most of them are in re-
gard to the subject of divorce. Judge
Fox repeatedly has received letters
asking how long it is necessary for a
woman to reside in the county in or
der to establish her residence, SO as
to make her claim valid in court.
Other letters state the alleged facts
in contemplated divorce proceedings
and the judge is asked to say whether
or not he deems these facts sufficient.
Many of these stories are deeply

As the late Lord Vantage. Y. c.

and valor, his description Of battle,

"A battle" he wrote. 'is the most
exciting thing in the world, think
much more confusing than one usually
