PASTOR HoRTHRUP HAS
INTERESTING SUBJECT

~The Abolition of Poverty will
be the subject of Rev. James Fl.
Northrup's sermon Sunday night at
the Presbyterian church.
THE existence of the poverty
that Is present today is a severe re-
buke to our sincerity or our intelli-
gence. That a considerable portion
of mankind should be living in pow
erty on an earth that every year
yields many times what we need for
food, clothing and shelter IL a fact
that ought to put our religious and
political leaders to shame. There
must be something rotten in Dem
mark No reasoning mat denies
~insincerity on the part of some,
greed on the part of many and stu-
pendous stupidity on the part of the
general public and a false and faith
less attitude OF tolerance toward
poverty, can account for its pres
ence. So long as we regard it as
one or the inevitable phases OF
earthly life, poverty will persist.
The cure of poverty Is abolition of
poverty, 1t ought to be handled
like smallpox; not treated as a mix
ed evil simply TO be alleviated. but
ain unmixed evil to be fought to ex-
termination by preventive and by
curative measures.
Furthermore the abolition OF
poverty involves scarcely any new
theories or plans. It has been so
we'll thought out In the past and 80
many provisions made that a SIM
cere and thorough application of the
principles already established and a
faithful and heroic 8 of the means
already partly provided would
speedily take poverty cut Of the
world"

.mnlsh Grammar.

Finnish grammar Is of a difficult
absolutely repulsive. None of the 0
er languages OF the same group Is half
SO hard. Hungarian-nay, ever Turk
ish. despite the ycxatious initial I'M
pediment of the Arabic al~phabet-is
easy In comparison. The syntax Is at
once provokingly elaborate and pur-
piexingly obscure. 1t possesses fifteen
distinct cases and t~wenty-four differ
entiated infinitive forms; butt on the
other hand. there is no real distinction
between nouns, adjectiyes,e adverbs,
propositions. infinitives and participles,
so that the student must not be star
tied by finding Initiatives regularly de-
clined like nouns and nouns taking
upon them degrees OF comparison Ike
adjectives.
