His Daughter in-Law
By JOHN PHILIP ARTLE

Granger Nation had ambitions. II
1t had not been SO he never would
have attained the eminence In the
world that was his, for only logged
persistence, an iron will and desire for
power would have sufiiced to overcome
the handicaps that had been his
as a poverty-strlcken boy and youth.
Now that all things material were
his. he began to yearn for other Joys
social supremacy, for one. Shrewd
enough to realize the race was run for
himself, he centered his schemes and
hopes on his only son, Hadley. 1t
made him satisfied with life and re-
paid him for his struggles when he

done with the money and the granite
palace and the power that would have
been hers. Stern honesty told him she
would have done nothing-would have
sunk beneath the weight in awkward
terror.
He could fancy her shrinking

and Hadley occupied. No; Mary would

the whole world including all con-
tinents, races and tribes, without re-
gard to color, language or creed. The
spoken words of Jesus clearly indi-
cate that his Kingdom was ultimate
ly to include all people who would
accept and obey him.
The second statement in the text,
full of meaning, is that those who
believe are to be the proof that God
sent Him (Christ) into the world. As
It was in the time of Jesus, so now il
is a fact that those who have accept
ed Christ are the only means OF
testifying to His saving power.
The third great truth is this, that
unity among those who believe is the
condition on which the world is TO
be brought into a full belief. A
divided Christendom cannot take the
Gospel to all the world.
If these things be true, and we

must ask what it is that the Church
is actually to do? It has been nins-

were spoken and two-thirds of the
people now on the earth do not be-
lieve in Christ. A leading student OF
missions has recently defined the
task of the church as follows: "It
is the primary business Of the church
to make Jesus Christ known, obeyed
and loved In all the world" We must
all acknowledge that the church has
failed to accomplish this object

A Real Sensation

The week In Washington has been
one Of much noise but little of real
importance said and practically moth
ing done. But Congress, Washington
and the country at large have enjoyed
a real sensation. Possibly tbs accounts
for the fact that there has been much
noise and for the further fact that
Congress has no achievement TO its
credit. The sensation came in the
nature of a war scare. Now it seems
that war scares are getting to be
a necessary feature of English and
American political life. Recently all
England was lodging from evrey shad-
ow produced by the obscuring of
the sun by any little fleecy cloud,
thinking that 1t was a war balloon
manned by their German enemies.
Departmental Muss
The only enemy Americans are able
to think of in recent years is the
Japanese, and all of our war talk
is based upon our supposed ineffici-
ency to meet the japanese either on
the seas or on land, and altogether
the attitude of the press would seem
to be such as to make the Japanese
rather conceited or add much to
their present sufficiency Of coneeit.
Our war scare of the week seems to
have originated in a resolution, Of
