THE COST OF RELIGION

Sometimes one hears this COM
plant that religion is too costly.
Going to church we are told costs
TOO much nowadays, and men say
that the gospel should be preached
without money and without price.
1.-The Lutheran, makes this reply:
Last wear about Sz50.000 was
spent ia keep the work of $4,000
churches in America going-an av-
erage of about $500 per communl-
cant member. One would think
that if religion is really worth much
it should make much heavier de-
mands on the purse than that.Con
fectionery and soft drinks, howev-
er, seem to be worth much more to
the American people than religion:
for 1920, 100000 is spent for these
articles. The automobile bill is
double what it costs to run the
churches, and the jewelry bill ex-
ceeds it more than three times. The
theater and moving picture bill is
equally in excess. Men and boys
land even some women) puff near
| ly five times that amount into to-
bacco smoke every year, and the
large army of intoxicant lovers
spend ten times that sum to satisfy
craving which means the ruinatlor
of millions of lives,

From present indications Hon.
II. D. Flood our present Congress-
man is likely to have opposition
for denomination.
Mr.. Flood has represented the
10th District for quite long time
and has been most faithful and
Jealous in the performance OF his
duties. He has always looked care
fully after the interest of his peo-
pie and has always been prompt
and courteous when asked to look
after any department business
which MS constituents might want
attended to. He has risen to be
one of the big men of congress,
chairman of one the most import
ant committees, in the National
House of Representatives and as
such welding a great inhunce,
which he is always willing to exert
for our benefit and such being the
case we don't see any sane reason
for making a change, or any benefit
to be derived by making a change.
We think the people of the Tenth
District should be for H. D. Flood
over any one and we have no
doubt of his denomination.

Avoid Sedative Cough Medicines.
IF you want to contribute directly to
the occurrence of capillary bronchitis
and pneumonia use cough medicines that
contain, iodine, morphine, heroin and
other oedatives when you have cough
or cold. An expectorant like Chamber

It cleans out the culture beds or breed

pneumonia never results from a cold
when Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is

FOR SWIMMING POOL,
Expenditure of 500 VIII Provide One
for Rambler Park

The expenditure Of only 500 will put
into operation a swimming pool at Ram
bier park, Just - est of the city between
Sixth and Eighth streets, and provide
fine place for boys to go in swimming.
according to William Vesper. who appear
ed before the city commission this morn
ing with a suggestion to that effect
Mr. Nesper urges that some convenient
place where boys and men may go swim
ming ought to be provided. and points out
the terrible death toll exacted by the
treacherous Kansas river Of those who
venture into it.
The creek makes a curve in such a way
that dam, thrown across ii near Seventh
street and WaShburn avenue would place
about five acres under water Mr.. Yes
per says a little work would be neces-
sary to clean out the fmprovised lake. L
should suggest that the creek be kept
out of the lake entirely 1t would re-
quire only a block OF pipe to bring city
water into the lake from the main on
Seventh street, and by flushing the lake
now and then IL could be kept in fine
shape
Mr. Vesper declares the work could be
done TO form a temporary swimming pool
at least for the sum of 800. The matter
may be taken up by the commission later.
