DEMOCRACY DATES
BEGINNING FROM
BIRTH OF CHRIST
Christmas Spirit Permeates Ser
mon by Rev. John Mcdowell
at Park Church.

A forceful sermon on "The Birth
Song of Democracy" was delivered by
the Rev, John Mcdowell, pastor of the
Presbyterian Church, at the morn
ing service. 1t was full of the Christ
mas spirit and breathed the story of
the heavenly anthem, GLORY to God
in the Highest, and on Earth Peace,
Goodwill Toward Men"
This anthem, the Rev. Mr.. Mcdowell
said, is as supreme today as in the days
of old. when it was the birth song of
democracy, and God, through it, an
nounced His sympathy with an con-
fldence in man. Democracy, he said,
is a great religious faith, and stands
first for faith in God and second for
faith in mar. 1t has within 1t the
principles of liberty and fraternity.

MONEY INVESTED IN THE SUGAR-BffT

Beet-sugar making is as yet but
an infant industry, with $50, OOO,-
600 invested. 1t is not old enough
in this country to be developed
without protection. But there are
many indications that tend to show
how we may some day compete
with the world in the production OF
beet-sugar.
Europe has cheap manual labor
and high-priced horses, and hence
there is not theincentive to decrease
the labor of the former and trans
fer it to the latter. With us the
reverse is true, and we are con-
stantly doing more and more OF our
field work with horses.
In all parts of the beet belt ex-
periments are being made, the sue
cess of which will further reduce
the hand labor. Some are trying
to eliminate the hand labor OF thin

are. however, VIGOROUSLY timid, and
