The Passion Play.
The first Passion Play of which
there is any record was in the fourth
century, A. D., among the Greeks, and
was called "Christos Paschon." All
through the middle ages different
dramas Of this nature were portrayed,
chiefly by religious orders. During
the Crusades many similar plays were
given for the purpose of stimulating
the people to activity in the saving
Of the Holy City from the hands Of the
Saracens. g-
In 1888 the village Of 0berammer-
gau, in Bavaria, was visited by ter
riDle plague. On It's cessation the en-
tire population made a vow to perform
the Passion Play OF our Savior every
tenth year out Of gratitude, and as a
means of religious Instruction. vow
which has ever since been faithfully
observed, The inhabitants OF this Sc.
cluded village have a rare union Of
artistic ability and cultivation, with
perfect simplicity. Their familiarity
with religious subjects is ever beyond
what is usual in the Alpine parts Of
Germany, and the spectacle is looked
upon with the same feeling with which
It otfglnated-devout and edlfying.
The impersonator Of Christ considers
his part an act Of worship. He and all
the rest who are to participate in the
enactment are selected for their holy
life, and are consecrated 10 their work
with prayer and fasting. In fact, It is
the ambition Of every child in the vii.
lage to act a part in this great event,
and in orderito do SO they must show
by their daily life that they are worthy
Of such an honor.

WHO WILL BE HIT?

Now it Is asserted that the Russian
government will take legislative steps
to keep all American Jewish citizens
out Of the Cars country, and that a
species of boycott against all Amer
lean manufactures and products will
be established.
A more transparent instance of Rus
sian Official spirit and intelligence has
seldom been noted. The steps said to
be in contemplation are clearly
prompted by a feeling of resentment,
which may be natural enough. But
what about the rights and welfare of
the Russian people? If American
commodities of one kind or another
are to be barred out OF the Russian
markets, is it not quite clear that the
Russian people will be the chief suf-
ferers? There never can have been
n sale of American goods in Russia,
except as they might be advantageous
ly bought by the people of Russia.
The modern statesman of whatever
nation occasionally performs the
functions OF his post according to his
own personal bias; but it has remained
for Russia to make the least effort al
a concealment Of this fact.

THE FoRWARp MOVEMENT,

Church work has a tendency to
branch out and take in many things
which were formerly ignored. The
Spokane Chronicle recently discussed
Men and Religion, making it's power
felt, in the following pithy para
graphs:
Those citizens of Spokane who may
have regarded the Men and Religion
Forward movement as some new form
of religious fad of no special signifi-
canoe in the ordinary life of the city
may have a sharp surprise waiting
for them.
1t is now more than a plan. The
mighty machine of which much is ex-
pected Is already under way. If it
operates with the success its promot-
ers hope for and of which it gives
promise it may mean for Americans a
revolution of social work" in bust
ness and even in politics as well as
in church going.
The current issue of The Survey
tells of directions which the aroused
energy of christian men has taken. In
a. NAS SOSldl SCI WIG COI1IIllII6S Is
preparing to fight the loan shark. In
Kansas City, Mo-, the boy problem is
being taken up. In Grand Rapids,
municipal censorship of moving pic
lures has become an issue. In Des
Moines, the appeals of Raymond Rob-
ms, former manager of the Chicago
Municipal lodging house. for aid of the
''outcast, the footloose and the down
and out" resulted in work by the
churches and others which drew an
appropriation of $4,000 for a munich
pal lodging house in Des Moines.
1t is impossible to foretell what will
be the most striking development of
the work which is already under way
in Spokane and which is to receive its
big boost when the travelling team
Of experts in the various lines of work
arrives in February. Enough has been
seen of the movement in other cities,
however, to make certain that it's
power will be felt.

erty. but it is doubtless even greater
than the loss to farm products.
Many fires are caused by rats and
mice. They menace the home in many
ways. and every householder should
rid his premises Of the little pests at
any cost.
some states, like California. have
organized statewide crusades against
mice and rats. as well as ground
squirrels, which are also found to be
carriers Of the fieas which scatter bu-
bonic plague.
But individuals can do much good
by warning everywhere on the pests.
Such action will gradually spread to
neighborhoods. cities, counties and
states.
Rid your premises Of rats and mice,
and start the good movement going.

eET TOGETHER.

This advice is given a. great deal.
1t is not needed as much as it should
be. As an abstract proposition it's
value to a community is conceded by
all, but when a personal application
is made, there is too much selfshness
to make the motto the practical re-
suit 'hich brings results.
Many IN individual or organization
prospers because of forward move
ments which do not pay their share
in money or brains to bring these con-
ditions of success about. Others get
tired of carrying the burdens, and
reaping only a little of the benefits.
Conditions were never better in
Fargo or in the state for growth and
prosperity-if all will pull together.
Drop your personal animosities-think
and work for the interests of aIl-not
for yourself alone-and you will not
only benefit your city and the state,
but your wi interests.
Don't get discouraged in we'll doing
just because some one else does not do
as you think he ought to. Keep at
Improvement work and building up.
No two persons have quite the same
view point.
Steady work will count-in the end
and the results viii be better for
you in every way, and make you much
happier than if you work only for
yourself and let others have the both
eF and the worry of the labors for the
community.
Now is a good time to get together,
but make up you mind, if you do get
together that you must give I'D some
p~rejudic-- as well as the other fellow.
This, however, is the only way to
achieve success for individual or COM
munity.

EAST STIRRED UP.

The trip of the western governors
through the east and the exhibition
cars seems to have stirred up some in
terest, judging from the following ed
itorial in The Cleveland Leader:
1t may be that the tour eastward of
the western governors will result in
more good to this state than to any
they represented. 1t gave an idea to
Sec. A. P. Sandles of the Ohio state
board of agriculture which he is even
now carrying out.
The great west has thriven might
lily during recent years, due to skillful
advertising, the natural lure Of new
lands and the use of the most advanc-
ed methods of agriculture. Ohio and
other states in the east and the middle
west have seen in the same period a
falling off in their rural growth as
compared with that Of their cities.
Their agriculture has not shown the
progress it should. One of the rea-
sons is that a majority of their farm
ers do not fully realize the agricultur-
al of their states nor the
possibilities lying in a nor scientific
use of their own land. Eastern and
middle west farmers saw many things
in the cars the governors brought from
the west to astonish them.
For years the Ohio State university,
the state board of agriculture and
their experimental stations have been
trying to educate the farmers of Ohio
to a realization of the great ~unrealized
possibilities of their land. But it has
been difficult to reach them and diff
ficult to convert them. Now Secretary
Sandles is fitting up a car with exhib-
it's to accomplish that purpose, sim
liar to those that came from the west.
Next Monday he will start with it on
a tour of the state.
II the purpose sought can be accom-
| plished by this means it certainly will
be worth while. 1t may even be well
to make this a a permanent adjunct
of the agricultural board, The farm
land in Ohio is as good as much of the
best in the new west, can more easily
be brought to a high state of produc-
ton and the market for its products
is better.
