Jesus himself was cited in support of
his position.
THE Bible is not a compendium Of
truth, nor even of theology" said DR..
Burton. 1T is a record of religious
and ethical experiences rather than
the last authority and a composition
of all theological truth, such as 1t is
held to be by most churches.
Taking the Bible at the beginning
and following it through, we find it
ever-changing, according to the con-
ception of the times. We cannot take

Parts of the editorial read as fol-
lows:
What shall we say concerning the
commands of Jehovah In the Old Tes-
lament to exterminate the women and
children of a vanquished foe? How
shall we account for the fact that the
Old Testament heroes INDUCED in
polygamy. forbidden by our modern
laws? How can we teach total abb
stinence from a Bible which repre-
cents Jesus as partaking of wine at
feasts, and which even tells how he
miraculously produced wine from wa
ter on one occasion when the supply
fell short?"
How, for example, can a Christian
gain in intelligent understanding of
the issues at stake in the modern con-
fiict between capital and labor If he
simply confine himself to reading
of the Bible? How shall he gain de-
feasible moral convictions concerning
the ethics of child labor If he confine
his attention TO a literature which
never dreamed of the possibility Of
modern factories and machinery?

hat for church wear. Worn with
bright, dressy gowns, 1t will serve for
a multitude of social occasions. In
fact a hat of this character is very

In Fig. 3, tailored nat is shown.
The shape is nobby and mannish and

similar shapes are shown covered with
the MORE and corded silks which are
found on all kinds of millinery this
season. For these hats the trimming

RUSSIAN CAFTAN MUCH LIKED
Practical Fashion Has Been Eagerly
Taken Up and Made Sea-
son'o Mode.

One OF the newest and most practi-
cal of fashions that are being adopted
Is the Russian caftan. a coat-like gar
ment which is similar to that worn by
Tolstoy, the great Russian author, in
pictures. with which we are familiar
The coat has a round or square
neck. slightly bloused bodice part
and straight bottom edge that ends
just above the knees. II is confined
at the waist line by a satin belt: or,
to make 1t more realistic, a silk cord.
The edges OF the coat are bound
with satin; for winter garment. bands

This style may be developed to the
extreme but In its simpler form is
more dignified.
The style promises to be a popular
one for smart fall and winter cos
tunes. Frocks OF wooden fabric, with
blouses OF net and silk and a caftan
OF the material trimmed with satin in
harmonizlng tone, or, what is safer
yet, black, will be in good taste for
the weli-dressed woman.

Each one is typical Of one Of the three
distinct classes OF millinery-the

BIBLE NOT ETHICAL
Thirteen Chicago University Pro-
fessors O. X. the Statement.
Holy Book Is Neither the Compen'
dunn Of Truth Nor Theology, De-
clares an official Editorial
in the Biblical World.

Chicago-The divinity school of the
University of Chicago gave the world
another startling bit of advanced the
ology when the 10 editors Of the Bibli-
cal World put their o. X. on the state
ment that the Bible is not a compen-
dunn of ethics and never was intend
ed to be.
The argument appeared in the form
OF an editorial In the magazine, OF
which Prof. Ernest Dewitt Burton, ID.
D., head of the department of New
Testament literature and interpreta-
ton, is the editor-in-chief. The asso-
ciate editors are members OF the fac
ulty, and their unanimous approval is
necessary before an editorial goes to
the printer. often two or three col
laborate on an article.
The editorial makes the argument
that the ethical methods OF Jesus were
ideal in that they we're elastic and adj
justed to At conditions as they were
found.
In an interview DIR. Burton elaborat-
ed on the presentments made In the
editorial in a manner to emphasize
what many persons had read between
the lines, viz, that Sunday baseball!
and other personal enjoyment of the
Sabbath were not necessarily sinful.
in the minds of the 10 professors. DR..
Burton did not mention baseball in his
discourse nor did he mention saloons,
but he left room for some very plain
differences. AS did the editorial, he
held that the Bible was not an iron
clad depository of truth and arbi.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.-The pur-
chase of automobiles for the private
use of government officials was at
tackled by Mr.. Sims of Tennessee dur
ing consideration Of the urgent de-
ficiency appropriation bill in the house
today.
The senate provision for $4,000 for
the purchase of vehicles for the speak
er and the president was not approved.
Mr.. Sims criticized the use of auto
mobiles by the quartermaster's depart
ment of the army and expressed his
conviction that it is an outrage for
the government to provide automobiles
for the private use of officials while
Sc and $12 pensions were being paid
to widows of soldiers and the salaries
of clerks were being pared down to
reduce expenses.
"I am getting tired of this apeing
of the ways of royalty" he said. Il

Mr.. Clark, the minority leader de-
clared if any of the items of appropria-

by the house conferees, the bill never
would be passed by the house without

REDLANDS, Aug. 2.-Engineers Sc
lected by the Bear Valley Mutual Wa
ter company to map out the work for
increasing the water supply of the
company left today in company with
President II. II. Garstin for Bear valley
to begin work. In the party were F. G.
Schuyler, the noted Los Angeles en-
gineer, who has been connected with
the Panama canal and Engineers Fin
kle of the Edison Electric company and
Newman of the Pacific Light and Pow
er company.
They will go over the ground at Bear
valley, where it is planned to build q
new dam twelve feet higher than the
old, and to there impound double the
water that is impounded now. After
several days in Bear valley the party
will go to Seven oaks, and thence by
pack horses to Filaree Flats, a distance
Of five miles, to go over plans for the
building of a second large dam to i'm
pound the flood waters of the Santa
Ana river, on which the company has
held rights for several years and been
doing the necessary preliminary work
at the dam site. 1t is planned to buHd
this dam, either at the same time the
Bear valley dam is being built or i'm
mediately following, and the two will
give Redlands a water supply to sup
port population of $4,000 persons.

PROTESTS RECEIVED IN
MATTER OF PURCHASE

SAN BERNARDINO, Aug. 2.-The
board of supervisors held a rather live
ly session this morning, hearing pro
tests from residents in the vicinity of
the detention home against the county
purchasing the property. A request
was filed from w. ]. Carr of Rialto for
permission to shoot mocking birds,
which. he alleges, are eating his
grapes. The board also discussed the
request from the Cotton orange grow
ers for permission to have the horticul-
tural commissioners visit their groves
and ascertain the damage done by the
cement plant.
The board refused this request, feel
ing the growers should have an outside
expert made the investigation, as they
are really collecting evidence to be
used in a damage suit, and the super
visors take the ground that the county
should not interfere in the controversy.
The request of Carr was laid on the
table. The supervisors promised the
detention home protestants not to take
action until further investigation is
made.
