THREAD OF LIFE
Is BEING WOVEN
DIR. GEIGEt on WEAVING AT
GRACE EPISCOPAL.
Takes Text From jobs Philosophy
and Draws Moral Lesson
Therefrom.
DIR. BURRELL ON FATE's IRONY

"Afy days are swifter than weav-
er's shuttle. and are spent without
hope.9LJob. 70.
Life is an infinite process of weav-
ing, according to the Rev. Henry j.
Geiger, rector OF ST. Paul's, of Hick-
man. Ky, in his sermon at the Grace
Episcopal church Sunday morning.
He compared life with a web and his
sermon was filed with these symbolic
thoughts.
Job was prone TO look at life in a
most prosaic way, said DR.. Geiger.
He might have said. MY days are
short" but he was full OF picturesque
thoughts which he expressed. DR..
Geiger said one finds the symbol OF
weaving throughout literature. As
far back as 1000 b. c. we read
where the Empress planted mulberry
trees for her SIX WORMS TO feed and
weave upon. Weaving was referred
to extensively by the Greeks and the
Three Fates symbolic the problems
OF today.
We wonder why the good die
young, he said "why the young mans
thread OF life Is suit" II Is pTedestina-
ton and the old philosophers called
e a philosophical necessity. He said
it Is a hard thing TO safety the hu-
man heart He told OF the painting
by Michael Angelo OF the Three
Fates and said the painting was the
three aspects OF the same face. Our
fate, he said. Is Gods viii and life Is
a divine progress OF weaving: weav-
ing the divine and the human life
into the Lord. Jesus Christ.
The old proverb is that For the
web OF God, God gives the thread.
Many times. said Mr.. Gelger. the
thread Is misused. Life Is a web We
are constantly working and our lives
can be woven bright by service and
activity In Jesus What We have
woven. he said. Is an irrevooable rec
ord for or against rs: there are tan
giles and breaks. The tangles may
represent the time al which we meet
temptation and the broken threads
the time when we have been rebel
lious IN trouble with Christ Faith
takes all inconsistencies OF life. The
dropped stitches OF the web repre-
sent the time one has wasted and the
neglected opportunities. God. he
said. is the author and finisher OF our
fate.
DR.. Geiger said in our lives there
are colored threads. blue and black
being symbolic Of sin and sorrow;
red symbolic OF suffering. and gray
symbolic Of grief and despair. The
white Is symbolic OF the Christian
life. purity ana consistency. There
Is a red thread in the history OF all
humanity. according to Mt. Geiger.
He told OF the weaver who secs only
the rough side and ragged edges OF
his web, but keeps weaving knowing
that the web will be perfect on the
opposite side II he follows his pat
tern. SO in the lives OF everyone. he
said, and heaven will be the revela-
ton. Therefore. be ye steadfast
and unmovable in the sight OF the
Lord.

Grace church yesterday morning and
last night in the absence Of the Rev.
ID. C. Wright. who win return this

Politics.

The political outlook, another
lwell-worn element OF doubt. is stead
ily improving. Radicalism Is being
lrebuked in all directions; issues have
now been clearly defined, and seem
to depend very largely upon per-
lsonality The comparative lack OF
interest in election issues Is shown
by the falling OF in registration in
all parts of the country compared
with previous years II IS taken for
granted that Republicans viii have
to face considerable losses at the
polls next November, and there is
some probability that the next con-
gress may become Democratic This
fact, however. appears to cause little
real uneasiness. and the elections are
certainly a much less threatening
element than two or three months
Iagc IL is also a noticeable fact that
'nuollc opinion is becoming less hos
tile to corporations; this being due
partly to public recognition Of the
fact that corporations are here to
stay. and partly TO the fact that
managers Of the latter recognize that
they must submit to some form OF
regulation, obey the law and show a
decent regard for public opinion. The
change in the latter respect mani

ILLINOIS EXECUTIVE iNTiMATEs
HE COULD AID LEGISLATIVE
DOODLE INQUIRY.
SUGGESTS BIG MEN IN DEAL
Compares Lawmakers Who Confessed
as "Pawns In the Great Game Of
Legislative Chess" Neither
Could Be the Leader.

Chicago, m.-Governor Charles S
Deneer would welcome a subpoena
summoning him before either the spe.
cial Cook or Sangamon county grand
jury investigating the legislative cor
ruption, which he believes has been
revealed but slightly to the public by
the confessions of Legislators Hollis
law, White, Link and Beckemeyer.
The Illinois executive, discussing the
bribery scandal at the Union League
club, said that If so su~bpoenaed he
wouldn't rely Upon the privilege of
his office to secure exemption from
the duty Of testifying.
From beginning to end of an hours
interview, expressing views that he
owe his own signature or in a dictat-
ed declaration, the governor showed
strong personal feelings. Especially
was he indignant at what he styled
the false or unwarranted assertions
made by Senator William Lorimer In
the latter's speech last Saturday at
Washington.
1t was suggested to the governor
that citizens, interested in bills, and
who had baked at contributing to the
sack pot for either their advance
ment or defeat, doubtless had brought
their woes to him.
In reply the governor said he had
kept no diary" but that If, on re.
Election or questioning in a grand ju-
ry room, he was able to remember in
cidents that would assist in u%pturning
legislative corruption. he would be
glad to give his statement.
Especially was the governor EN-.
phatic in noting that 1t was impossi-
BILE the corruption in. the legislature
could have been limited to the four
lawmakers that have made confess
sions of participation in bribetaking,
both in voting for Lorimer and in the
lack pot" The revelations to date,
he said, plainly indicated the exist
ence Of a powerful organization,
strong enough and willing enough to
collect money from many different
sources.
Holtslaw, White, Link, Beckemeyer
Ito these who have confessed, he
pointed as being merely the pawns
In the great game of legislative chess.
To them also he added Broderick,
Wilson and Browne, as the lawmak-
ers named in the distributing end.
But none of these, the governor
pointed out, could have been the
fountain head of the money used to
corrupt members of the legislature.
The big men in the legislative game
into whose hands the collections first
came as treasurers of the Jack pot"
the politicians of business men inter-
ested In legislation, who contributed
the funds to corrupt the lawmakers
these, the governor pointed out, had
not been identified.
The "big men, exist and they must
be identified, in the governors opin-
ion, before the Illinois legislature can
be cleansed and before it can merit

KELLNER GIRLS BODY
Is FOUND IN A CELLAR
Louisville Child, Missing since De.
cember, Believed to Have Been
Murdered-Wrapped in Carpet.

Louisville, Kentucky.-The body
Of Alma Kellner, 8 years old, daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Kellner,
who had been missing from her par
ents' home on East Broadway since
December s, was found in an unused
cellar of the st. Johns parochial
school at Clay and Walnut streets.
All indications point to the child's
having been murdered and her body
dropped through a trap door into the
underground passage.
The body vas found by Dick
Sweets, a plumber, who was engaged
in pumping water out of the cellar.
When he had got most of the water
out, he saw a child's shoe protruding
from some damp debris. Taking hold
Of the foot, he found the body of a
child wrapped in a carpet. AS he
unrolled the carpet. the flesh fell
from the child's body. He telephoned
to his employers and to Police Chief
Lindsay, who hurried to the spot and
sent to the Kellner home for Mr..
Kellner.
Frank Fehr, who arrived with the
childs father a short time after the
body had been found, said he was
certain the body was that Of Alma
Kellner.
His theory is that the child was
killed before she was thrown into the
cell by the trap door. The cellar is
six by ten feet long and is reached
by two entrances, n a trap door in
side of the schoolhouse, which has
not been opened for many months
and the other door ear the side OF
the entrance to the school between
the home of Father Schumann and
the schoolhouse.
