Or. Stanley krehs, Noted Scholar and
Lecturer, VIII Address Men Of
keokuk This After
noon.
SUBJECT, THE TRINITY
Famous Lecture is Entitled "Three
Gods or One" and is Sure to
Interest Large Crowd
Expected.

DR.. Stanley Krebs, the noted scholar
and lecturer will deliver his famous
lecture entitled Three Gods or One
in the auditorium of the Young Mems
Christian association this afternoon at
3;45 o'clock. DR.. Krebs is in investi-
gator of mental laws and student of
human nature. He has travelled on
three continents studying human con-
ditions and relations; is prominent
IN educational, professional, business
and musical spheres. He is an origi-
nal thinker, a man of magnetic per-
isonality, an awakener of energy and
purpose, handling the great problems
of individual and national life of the
times.
In this subject for today DR.. Krebs
deals with the Trinity, the foundation
doctrine of the Christian religion 1t
is vital message to this age, cogent,
powerful, compelling and forceful in
its argument. 1t is told simply, plain
I y and clearly so that everyone can
understand. The presence of such a
gifted man in the city should awaken
the interest of every man with the re-
sire to hear him, which opportunity
| is given today at the Y. M. G. A.
Faith stronger, Bible clearer, Saw
our nearer" remarks P. c. Long,
Paris, KY, evangelist and singer, who
further says II have long been inter-
ested in such subjects as DR.. Krebs
deals with, but have honestly been
afraid of them, because, as Christian
active in the Fathers work, l could
not follow the line Of thought pursued
/ by the many scientists I have heard
without the fear of becoming doubt
er, since they invariably seem to treat
the matter as if science and Christian
lily were opposed to each other l
have wanted, really longed to see and
hear one who as Christian goes
deeply into these great subjects, not
only holding on to his faith in God
but on account of it closes his eyes
ito nothing, goes into everything and
proves to US that instead of oppos
ing, science and faith strengthen
and beautify each other, and help us
TO see God in everything. Dr. Krebs
is the only man have ever heard
who does just exactly this thing, and
] am glad he is and is doing what he
is doing. have lost nothing but have
gained everything in hearing him, and
in knowing him. My life will be better
and broader in every way for his
work

Can Ex-Boss Come Back?
It is Believed Beyond Doubt That T. J. Tiny Hickey
Will be Candidate for Commissioner in
the Spring.

Can Tim Hickey, former we'll known
alderman under the old plan of gov
eminent, come back? Friends of the
will make the race for city commits
sioner next spring.
Hickey, when seen by Gate City
representative Saturday, intimated
that he would make the race. He
would not make positive announce
fluence of friends will bring the form
er alderman out into the municipal
contest.
Ex-Alderman Hickey predicts one
of the hottest campaigns in the his
tory of the city. In an interview he
said: THE campaign will return to
the old lines. 1t will be OF the old
knock EN- down" type-what we
call the old style Of campaigning. The
idea is to knock the other fellow down
in order to secure the votes.
However, campaign under the
form Of government as we have 1t
now Is much more difficult than for
merly for the reason that it is neces-
sary to cover the entire city instead
Of combining ones efforts to single
ward The lines are not drawn so
much politically as individually. The
scope is wide and many voters will
Judge solely on ability.
There Is a broad, liberal and in
telligent class of voters in Keolluk.
The majority of them are staunch sup
porters Of the commission form OF
government, but not SO much 30 with
the men In office. I think the COM
mission plan Of government is ell
right just like monarchial form Of
government is all right-if the mon
archy is good.
"You want my opinion Of the cam
paign which the present commission
ers will make? think there is just
one man who can beat Elder. If he
declines to run Elder will be reflect
ed. AS to the other two men do not
expect them to overcome the opposi-
ton which will manifest itself in the
coming campaign.
"As for my own candidacy will
say this much: When was defeated
two years ago many Of my former
supporters voted against me because
Of the desire for house-cleaning.
Since then many Of them have come
to me telling just the reasons for
their opposition and pledging support
in the event that re-enter the field.

Hickey, the strongest politician the
second ward had ever had, was one

ran well in the primaries. but lost
votes in the election on compromise

terial way. Several of the policemen
including Jailer Louis Yeager, are in
cluded in the defense which is being
built up, according to reports, and all
with the alleged assurance of reap
pointment if the campaign is sue
cessful one.
While Gray is regarded as the first
to look to an organized fight, Elders
support will be shown just as soon as
the campaign winds begin to blow
with more severity.

Another candidate for commissioner
who has been mentioned during the
past week is Ex-Alderman Henry Ii.
Seemann from the Sixth ward. His
friends have been putting him for
ward and the best report is that he
will allow his name to go before the
voters at the primaries.

Russia to back up in her demands un,

The Sunderino Book.

Carlyle once observed that the book
had become the church. Men entered
into books as formerly they entered in
to churches. We are not yet half a
century away from Carlyle and now
country life. with automobiles. golf
and other outdoor diversions are
blamed for taking mems noses out Of
books again. The presses have not
slackened their ace ~perceptibly, how
ever, and a writer in the London Out
look thinks that Carlyle's observation
is still profoundly true and the book
has been a great separating influence
1t separates in many ways:
1T has taken US away alone. 1t has
refused to be shared with others. 1t
wives, our husbands. our friends. 1t
has given US riches, and not necessarily
given the same riches to others. 1t
has distinguished US: it has individual
lied US. 1t has created differences be-
tween ourselves and our fellow men.
Hence our pride, our suspicion, our
d!strust. Churches are not of stone. A
church is composed of two or more
people gathered together with one ac-
cord. The great ideal of a nation has
been to be one church, but books have
been the disintegration anu ruin Of that
church"
The contention of this writer is sup
ported by the case Of the Russian peas
ant. In Russia there are no books, he
declares, and the fact is not to be
lamented. For:
The church supplies the place Of all
books-I am, Of course, speaking OF tn
