THE RESORT BEAUTIFUL
Always Cool! Always Clean!
Always Healthy!

CREST stands alone in its rapid develop
ment. 1t faces the Atlantic Ocean, adjoins City of Wildwood
and has the Delaware Bay in its rear. It's the new summer
resort and there is not a cooler or more healthful place in
all the states of the Union. There are no finer beaches or
sailing and fishing water anywhere.
Cement pavements and cutters, artesian water, gas and
electricity, sanitary sewage system approved by the State
Board of Health, hard graveled streets and telephone svs-
TENS extend to every building site, and trolley cars run
throughout the resort.
1t IS six years old, and in that time has multiplied nearly
eight hundred times IN assessed valuation in the state rata
bles, but the founders are selling ground at no more than
they received at the beginning, well knowing the effect of
population and building on the land they retain. Hundreds
of cottages and mansions, hotels and places of amusement,
and boardwalk a mile along the surf in Wildwood Crest
are now ministeTing to the health, rest and pleasure of many
thousands of people.
WILDWOOD CREST is the Coolest, Cleanest. Health
lest Summer Home Resort on the New Jersey Coast, where
all the conveniences of seashore summer life are to be had.

Evolution theory; for this very Joshua

Israeps Real Leader-God.
Not for a m are we to lose
sight of the fact that God had adopted
the nation of Israel and had entered
into a special Covenant with them;
and that. therefore, He was their real
Leader, Moses. Joshua and others being
merely His representatives. We have
already referred to the reasons for the
adoption of Israel by the Almighty.
The New Leaders Name.
Joshua's name was originally Hoshea,
the same as hat Of the Prophet Hosea,
signifying salvation. To this was pre-
fixed plumbers 1910 Je, an abbreyia-
ton representing the word Jehovah.
Thus the name became Jehoshua, sig
nifying Jehovah's salvation. This was
shortened to Joshua. The Greek form
of this word Is Jes0aS-Jesus.
For twenty-seven years Joshua was
the leader of Israel, faithful to God
and to the people. He not only led the
people through Jordan and directed in
the conquest of Canaan, but divided
the land amongst the tribes and gov
erned the people with great accept
ance, dying at the age of one hundred
and ten years.
Moses and Joshua were men of to-
tally different types. Any one con
trasted with Moses would be disadvan-
tagged, so high did that great states
man tower above the average of hui

Joshua could not be Moses, yet he was
faithful as a follower OF Moses. as one
VINO obeyed the Divine Law, aaa
whose faith and influence were help
full to the people. He was just what
God wished him to be, and whoever is
worthy of such a testimony is truly
great.
The Land Of Promise.
That Joshua and Israel should take
forcible possession of Canaan Is called
In question by some. They ask, By
what right might one branch of the
human family destroy another and
seize their land? Where is the justice
of such a course?
There, is but one answer to this
query; and, rightly seen, it is satisfac-
tory. The Lord declares that the earth
is His. that He gave it to the children
of men, as represented by Adam.

Topeka people are responding lib
orally to the appeal of the Central

to establish and maintain a camp for
boys who have not enjoyed the eX-
perience of camp life. One hundred
and twenty dollars had been received
up to noon today. No limit has been
set to the fund, for the more money
that is raised the more boys will have
chance to indulge in a ten-day
outing at the Stone Bridge farm,
about thirteen miles southeast of the
city.
This morning one woman residing
on the South side called George H.

by telephone to tell him of two boys
who would be benefited by such a
treat as is planned for the youngsters.

HODGES PLAN IN BOOK
Volume Has Been Prepared by Ref
erence Librarian for Publication.

Material for the handbook on the
Hodges plan for commission form
of legislature has been completed by
the reference library department of
the state library, and will be sent to
the state printer in a few days. The
book probably will not be ready for
distribution before September 1.
The index for the handbook shows
that more than $50 authoritative ref
erences have been quoted and that
many newspaper clippings and maga-
zine reviews have been copied. When
printed the book probably will be the
reform Legislature that has ever been
issued. The book will require about
200 printed pages.
In the book is included the Hodges
message to the Kansas legislature urg-
ing the adoption of the reform. This
is. followed by score of extracts
from speeches and articles by public
men who have studied the question.
Then comes newspaper and magazine
reviews. The first half of the book
is devoted to a discussion favoring
the reform, one house legislative
body. The second half of the book is
given over to a defense of the pres
sent two house system and is han
died in a manner similar to the de-
fense of the reform.
1t is not yet known how many
copies of the book will be issued.
Many inquiries and requests for copies
of the book have been received by
the reference library, from every sec
ton of the United States, and it is
probable that the Kansas publication
will be given wide circulation and will
be carefully studied by men and
women interested in the new reform.

teen Missouri railroads affected by a re-
cent order by the United States supreme
court on or before August 1, was stated
today by representatives of the railroad
before the state utilities commission
which met here to discuss the situa ton
with the railroad representatives. Mar
tin l.. Clardy, vice president of the Mis-
souri, Pacific. acted spokesman for the
railroad men. THE railroads wish to
obey the law said Mr.. Clardy land it
is the intention of all of the roads affected
by the court order to put the rates into
effect at the earliest moment. but il is
contention that 2-cent rate is con-
fisca tory and expect to show that to

ing the new rates too low expect to
find an equitable adjustment
John II. Lucas. attorney for the Frisco
system appeared, following Mr.. Clardy,
and suggested that the 2-cent passenger
rate go into effect July 4. His remark
that he could think of no better way for
the railroads to celebrate independence
day, brought a laugh from commissioners
and attorneys. Shortly after noon the
commission went into secret session to
decide upon a date for ordering new rates
into effect.
