THINGS ALL OUGHT TO KNOW
A. Christian Bible Students-The Sat
isfaetory Proof Of why God Per.
nnits Evil"

mits EVIL.
One of the questions which comes to
nearly every thinking mind today is.
"Why does God permit cvil?" As We
look about lis in the world we observe
that il is filled with sorrow and trouble,
sickness and pain and every trial we
could cnumcrate. and we cannot help
wondering WHY GOD ALLOWS IT.
We realize that He is almighty and
that He could prevent it if He wished
We read in His Word that He is more
willing to do for His children than
are earthly parents for theirs. and we
know how much that means; yet of
tentimes. ii seems thar those who try
to do and live right have the most
trouble. This question is made very
clear in book entitled. The Divine
Plan OF the Ages" Every statement
is backed by Scripture and shows that
while God does not sanction evil HE
HAS ALLOWED SIN AND DEATH
TO REIGN FOR THESE LONG SIN
THOUSAND YEARS. This and many
other subjects Of deep interest to all
Of Gods people are discussed fully and
in language easy Of comprehension.

WHARTON BARKER
OPENS SOME EYES

Washington, Dec. 4-Wharton
Barker, a retired banker of Phila-
delphia, sprung a sensation on the
senate committee on interstate COM

4 New York financier told him in
1905 that financial interests would
support Theodore Roosevelt for
president, because the latter had
made a bargain with them "on the
railroad question.
Mr.. Bankers statement came in
the midst of vigorous attack on
the money trust" in which he al
legged also that president Roosevelt
had been given the details of the i'm
pending panic of 1907, several
months before it happened. but took
no action to prevent it. He declared
handiwork not of former senator AL
drich, but of Mr. Warburg, of the
banking firm of Kuhn, Loeb & Co.,
of New York. and that a fund of
$1.000.000 mad been started to in

silo, should be as smooth as possible
If due care is used in tramping tho
sllage during the filling. doors which
extend into the silo are not a serious
objection. though perfectly flush doors
are certainly an advantage. a vertical
wall is the only satisfactory wall to
use, as wall inclined outward will
support the silage to certain extent
and prevent it settling satisfactorily,
thus creating air pockets. When the
wall is inclined inward the silage will
settle away from il. IN the case q

should be vertical on the inside.
Best results are obtained where the
silage is uniformly distributed
Throughout the silo and is carefully
packed near the walls and around tha
doors By tramping. Care should be
taken that the heavy and light por-
tons shall be uniformly mixed. Some
/ silo owners are OF the opinion that a
great amount Of tramping Is unneces-
sary. but the Investigations Of tho

ltamping was not followed there was
always a certain amount Of spoiled

labor used in thoroughly tramping the

good returns.

Country schools in America are not
rising TO the great opportunities which
confront them. They are not keeping
pace with other social institutions.
Some Of them occupy an exceedingly
low plane. with faults as fragrant as
could have been pointed cut twenty or
thirty years ago.
The faults Of the country school
system are strong factor In causing
young people to dislike rural life. Leg
nally. then, they are responsible in a
great degree for the slow progress Of
our farming communities.

teacher OF rural schools has left clear

OF possible remedies In educational
