time the Kansas experiment station
has been making an experimental
study OF this disease and its origin.
Its exact cause ia still only partially
understood, but enough has been
learned to place the blame safely on
poison in the mold and filth found
on ears damaged by the corn-ear
worm.
The eggs Of the adult insect caus-
ing this trouble are laid in the husks
of the young ear. After Matching the

which. with the escaping juices Of
the corn, furnishes the best possible
medium for the development Of the

horses consuming any considerable
quantity Of the damaged corn.

COVENANT IN GOD
Real Significance Of Fact That
Is Conveyed in Stone Point
ing Upward.

Jacob left such a stone at Bethel
II was witness to the fact that
soul had been deeply conscious of the
presence, the forgiveness, the call. and
the protection of God, and had entered
into a covenant with him. In that
stone pointing upward Jacob had al
ready begun to be q blessing to all
the families of the earth. II all the
church towers and spires in Christen-
dom were gathered into a skyline,
what reaching heavenward Of human
aspiration they would reveal. That Is
what they are: stones pointing up
ward, and bearing witness to the up
ward reach of the soul of man.
In many places throughout the land
there are points where humanity gath
ers and looks out toward the greatest
lance. There is Cliff House at San
Francisco; there are observation
points at Niagara; there are ''inspira-
ton points in the great mountain re-
gions there are the ocean piers at
seaside resorts; places that stand as
witnesses to the impulse that human
ity has to admire and get as near as
possible to the beautiful. So are the
church spires witness to the fact that
souls of men are athirst for God.
They mark the places where men
gather to give their souls chance
to look heavenward.

power. They draw people to them
until towns and cities and business
and commerce have been built up
about them. They draw until high
ways of travel are opened to them
as centers. They multiply the value
of real estate. Travellers are glad to
pay special prices for the privilege OF
being near these drawing points. The
stones pointing upward have the same
power. Church spires draw buildings
up In the air Sky-scrapers are not
to be found except where church
spires point downward. Where these
are lacking men live in huts, and the
ton are not to be found. II men
could know today the places out on
the plains, where church spires would
point heavenward in twenty-five years
from now, they would rush there to-
day to buy land. The points in
heather lands where missionaries go
to preach the everlasting gospel. are
the places that will be the great cen
tiers of influence in the years to come.
Business, commerce, manufactures, all
things flourish in the light of the
gospel of peace.
1t is In the consciousness of Cog
that the soul of man Develops, 1t e
in the light of Gods truth that man
grows a conscience and a characta.
And where these develop everything
else prospers. Christianity is the
most practical thing in the world to-
day. 1t blesses everything that II
touches.
1t is a great thing to go out into
land that lies in darkness Of ignor-
ance and superstition, and plant even
single stone that shall direct the
gaze and the thought Of the people
to God. How little did Jacob realize
how much the world would hear Of
the stone that he set up at Bethel.
Let US claim Gods promise too, and
set the stones that voice the aspira-
tons Of the soul Of man, until all the
families OF the earth shall be blessed

DR.. Dewitt G. Wilcox, a lecturer ut
the Boston University School OF Med

1T is this structural change in the
brain produced by alcohol which in
terests us from the standpoint Of the
criminologist We have seen that
slight changes in the brain structures,
such as pressure from depressed frag-
ments Of bone or even edhesions OF

fects upon temperament and tudg-
ment. Alcohol and other powerful
cotics are Ike depressed fracture

to produce in each instance a de-
pressed fracture OF the skull in each
victim, he or the government would be

now doing by licensing certain men To
sell alcohol to a stipulated number OF
men whose brain tissue will not stand
the assaults OF repeated doses of al

We need to be re-educated upon the
subject OF alcoholism and the textbook
from which we should learn the new
facts should have the title, Alcoholism
is disease and like all other pre-
ventable disease 1t must and shall be
eradicated.' Then it behooves physi-
clans. teachers, educators, judges, jur-
lists, legislators and parents to carry
on campaign of education which

person would no more think of taking
