lightfully surprised on Saturday af

The statement in Isa. 2S:1S, "Your
agreement with hell shall not stand,
has had a curious fulfillment. OF
course, if hell is any such place as
our parents taught us, it would dis
agree with everybody, but the dis
agreement has come in another way.
A Boston paper presents sympo-
SUM by eleven prominent clergymen
of that city on the statement OF
President Eliot of Harvard Univer-
sity, that, There is no hell, there
never was any, and there never viii
be any"
Three of the learned gentlemen
agree with Doctor Eliot, two appear
to consider it a place of mental suf-
fering, two evade the question by
expressing a belief in future retri-
BUTTON" without specifying what they
mean, one states that he does not
emphasize it, one refused to talk,
one intimates that "hell is here and
now," and one the Colonel of the
Salvation Army, says that he be
lieves in a real hell.
The symposium is illustrated by Il
picture of naked man, enveloped in
flames, being pitchforked about by
one of the six horned devils who
seem to be devoting their entire at
tentiCn to him. The illustration is
salG to have been taken from q
standard theological work in general
use century ago.
Such mere guessing by clergyinen,
Nio have f!i.anC!al reasons for being
prcjpciced, - II more reliable thaa
that Of trr laymsi. Manifestly We
must go to the Scriptures and to
them alone to find anything reason
able, tangible or logical on this sub
ject. Speculation is unnecessary where
facts are at hand.
In the margin of Psa. So: Is, S6:19,
lisa. 14:9, it is explained by the trans
lators of our common version thai
the word hell" means grave" This
seems confirmed by the statement
in Eek. 1927 that certain warriors
Are gone down to hell in their
weapons of war"-an allusion TO the
ancient custom of burying W"7-
.iors weapons in the Same grave
with his body.
He'll means, therefore, a place of
silence, a condition of dreamless
sleep. THE dead know not ANYTHING
(Eccl. 9:5) until the awakening IN
the resurrection morning.

Since hay is one OF the most i'm

tant that every farmer should be
vitality interested in producing larger

suits In growing hay should circulate
the following agreement and get al
least a hundred signers In his locality:
Whereas. the United States does
not produce as whole, one-half as
much hay as 1t should, and
Whereas, owing to this fact the price
of hay is all out of proportion as com
pared with other farm crops, now
Therefore, in order to produce more
and better hay, we the undersigned
agree as follows:
We, the undersigned, OF. 80. County.
...., hereby agree to cooperate with
the agricultural department OF our
state college. and with each other. in
growing and disseminating pure seed.
To attend n called meeting OF all
the slgners hereto. and to agree one
with the other to sow the number OF
acres set opposite to our names for
the season OF 1928, OF the kind, type
and variety OF hay best adapted to the
soil and climate OF this county.
To keep this type pure and when
harvested to demand a graduated
price according to the quality when
delivered.
That we will do everything in our
power to induce every farmer to raise
the best types so that eventually all
the hay shipped from this station will
be uniform and free from mixture OF
weeds.
Names. O....... Acres....
Are you sufficiently interested in the
Hay situation in your own vicinity
to obtain signers to this agreement!
