USING GOD
BY The REV. r. L. JACKSON

The modern occidental takes
fierce Joy in reducing everything to
utility basis. Whatever cannot be
so reduced Is thrown out as worthless.
Nothing has escaped the clutches Of
the criterion Of utility; not even the
Deity. With many the value of the
Deity Is strictly utility value. He
must vindicate His right to be, by the
way He prospers men in their ma
terial undertakings, keeps them in
health and strength and promotes
their happiness. Failing to do these
things for them He is adjudged USE
less and therefore worthless
A God who possesses other values
does not interest them A God who
exists for communion and fellowship
does not appeal to them. He must
do something for them in the realm
Of things tangible if He desires their
regard. That He should desire to be
worshipped is with many, anything but
a mark Of true divinity II grossly
savors of sublime egotism. Why
should a being who claims 10 be holy
and good insist upon the laudations
of men. A successful business man
sometime ago declared the worship of
the Deity as childish and absurd, in
comprehensive and unnecessary. II
there actually existed a Divine Being
let Him enter into relations with men
on terms of equality instead of hold
ing Himself aloft in conscious super
iority.
With the above feeling consciously
or unconsciously possessing multi
tudes of modern men, Is it any wonder
that religious worship is not increas-
ing? Is it any wonder that reverence
is becoming more and more lost art?
What is more deplorable than the loss
of reverence, for real reverence is
more than vague sentimental emotion.
It is an attitude of being from which
spring the moral constraint and in
spiration that are vital to individual
and social well being. Men who value
God for what He can do TO promote
their material welfare are not far re-
moved from primitive humanity. A
world in which everything, including
God Himself, has valtG only as il
serves some tangible transitory pur-
pose is not worth the sacrifice and
suffering that keeps it agoing.

Editorial Opinion
Being a Good Fellow.

New York Herald.
Every now and then we hear of
some one dying In bitter poverty after
having spent a fortune in 'being
good fellow" OF such one 1t is
commonly said while he IS alive and
spending that he has "heart like an
OK and a hand always deep in his
pocket" he is spoken of-rfrequently
within his own hearing-as "prince
among men" or zone. of natures no
blemen."
II seems passing strang that a man
with the power TO attract to himself
so many warm friends should not
have any willing to pay his funeral
expenses. Yet such is often the. case.
1t is a fact frequently commented on
by philosophers that these peerages
Of cafe creation die with the fortunes
that produce them. A real prince
among men" or natures nobleman"
loses his title-when his money ceases
TO burn holes in his pocket, after
which he should set aside little
money for his own obsequies.
But those who argue from the for
lorn and friendless passing of one Of
these good fellows" that there are
no real friends TO be had in this world
are wrong. Every one can make
friends, and stanch ones, too, by the
practice Of unselfshness but not by
wasting money on the worthless in
vain hope Of being considered a good
fellow" which is merely another
name for a complete fool.

Editor of THE EVENING JOURNAL
In your issue of July q you editor

For years in Europe the Anarchists
and the Socialists were az swords
points. Many conventions were marked,
BY violence. The Anarchists and the
Socialists hold views the exact re-
verse of one another The Anarchists
believe in no law, and the Socialists
believe in all law The Single Takers
are different from either Trouble IS
sure to follow when these elements
come in conflict.
"The Brown incident however
teaches a lesson What would the
world be If such reformers were in
control?"
You clearly define Anarchy and So
cialism-your reference to the Single
Takers is rather cloudy. You say "the
Single Takers are different from
either" IL is to be hoped So
Socialism is a bsolutepaternalisn-
fine system of government for babies,

sorry There are. however. two
things which the average normal
newspaper man resents and which It

NEwARK,s NEw NpusTRY.

HF. NEWARK POST of this week has some
pleasant reading-about new industries--the
kind we like to see in Delaware newspapers, and
we wish we could have more of it about Whining
ton in our own columns,
Ii is a story of the location in that town-ot the
Snider Preserving Company, a substantial con-
cern of Cincinnati which has decided TO have a
big factory in Newark. II is expected that the
factory will be in operation next month. The IN
dustry was secured largely through the efforts OF
the citizens Mayor Wright last winter gave The
Post an interview in the matter, but The Post
remarks that il was laughed at. It, was not
thought possible that the plant could be secured
Citizens however became active, the required
acreage in tomatoes and the site we're obtained.
Great credit is given Mr.. Theodore Armstrong by
The Post for his untiring efforts and enthusiasm
which brought the matter TO successful conelu-
sion.
1t is estimated that the Snider Company will
Adistribute about Newark upwards Of $4,000 a
year. Manager Carroll OF the company has con
tracted for 3s7 acres of tomatoes at So the ton,
and the farmers will get the money. II is the in
tention OF the company to contract for double
that amount OF acreage next year In fact We
should Judge that the extent of the Snder plant
in Newark will be limited only by the amount of
acreage of tomatoes that can be seured.
These are the kind Of industries should have
in Delaware Vegetable raising should be more
profitable for our farmers than grain raising,
Delaware land is especially adapted FOR fruit and
vegetables. The location Of canning and preserv-
ing factories should be especially desirable
There is not town in the state which should
not have several factories of this kind The in
dustry is large in Delaware but il could be made
larger
We congratulate the good people OF Newark on
their success in securing the industry and vel

DOING OF coon WORK

II HE publicity department Of the Pennsylvania
\ Railroad Company is certainly doing active
and energetic work in educating the people about
the dangers OF trespassing on railroad property
statistics have proved that most Of the deaths on
the railroads come from the thoughtlessness OF
persons IN crossing tracks or using the railroad
as highway.
In every possible manner the company is try
ing TO arouse interest in this matter and II has
enlisted the hearty support of the clergy so that
the perils of trespassng are talked of even at Sun
day school picnics e..
This question Of trespassing quite properly
should be made the topic of addresses in the pub
lie schools
The railroad company, however, is not the only
public service corporation that is endeavoring TO
prevent accidents Trolley concerns in many parts
OF the country are conducting a similar campaign
telling people what precautions to take in getting
on and off trolley cars and the like In one Of
the far western cities this matter has been en-
bodied as a part of the course of study in the
public schools 1t is good thing
Care on the part of the people will prevent
many accidents and save the corporations the ex-
pense of numerous suits for damages The peo-
pie are really concerned in having as few suits as
possible, although at first glance it may appear
that the people are not directly interested Let it
be remembered that if a trolley company is forced
to pay heavily in a damage case just that amount
OF money which might be used in improving troll
ley service is taken from the treasury Of the COM
pany to pay the expenses of damage suits.
Every effort 1.-THE corporations TO prevent a loss
of life should be encouraged. While the companies
in all instances are directly affected the commun-
ity is indirectly affected as we have pointed out
