VXTIIV not give your lad
VIII the same training?

''When was growing lad, and came
upon many words in my reading that
did not understand, my mother, in
stead of giving me the definition when
applied to her, uniformly sent me 70
the dictionary to learn it, and in this
way I gradually learned many things
besides the meaning Of the individual
word in question other things,
how to use dictionary. and the great
pleasure and advantage there might
be in the use of the dictionary.
Afterwards, when went to the village
school, my chief diversion, after les
sons were learned and before they
were recited, was in turning over the
pages of the Unabridged of those
days. Now the most modern Una
bridged- -theNEW INTERNATIONAL
gives me a pleasure Of the same sort.
So far as my knowledge extends, il is
at present the best Of the One-vOlume
dictionaries, and quite sufficient for
all ordinary uses. Even those who
possess the splendid dictionaries in
several volumes will Jet find it great
convenience to have this, which is so
compact, SO full, and SO Trustworthy
as to leave, in most cases, little to be
desired."- Albert 8. Cook, Ph. D., LID,

Are There Too Many Churches?

Are There Too Many Churches?
THE spectacle of half empty churches or
churches far more than half empty is dis
heartening and depressing. The empty pews
brighten the minister and dampen his ardor; they
grieve the regular church-goers; they surprise
casual attendants; the knowledge of them keeps
outsiders from coming, for it is always the
crowded places to which the crowds want to come
The above is taken from the Christian
Herald.
Ny own private, confidential opinion is,
that if all the churches were taxed at their

instead of empty benches.

~ Was it war to decoy and then murder
Counts Egmont and Horn? Was it war to
slaughter the Dutch women and children?
Was 1T war to capture unarmed men, and
then kill them, in cold blood, because they
would not embrace popery? Was it war, to
murder non-combatants, 6y the terrible pro-
cesses Of the Inquisition, for no other crime
than that they could not worship God accord
ing to the Pope's way?
(3) L am glad to have Father Phelafo's
confession that his Pope is Just as willing to
commit murder, in the name of religion, as
any Pope ever was.
THAT is exactly what Phelan's answer to
my question means.
The State may lawfully kill man: there
fore the Church mag zaaofuzly kill man, So
argues Phelan
Yet, we hear people say there is no danger
In the Romanist hierarchy
a. In Peru Protestants are not perse-
cuted: they are suppressed. Nevertheless, [
fear that if we should suppress few such
nuisances as D. S. Phean, they would howl
persecution and bigotry.

believe in religious federation. He classes
Professionalism with immortality, blasphemy
and indecency.
He is a candid old soul, isn't he?
CO. Try again? Very we'll. Persecute-
how will that do?
But the greater number of the cardinals
are Jesuits, and the Jesuits swear to eutir-
pate.
Now, you "try again." Father.
~ Here we have another confession that
ought to cause Americans to think.

claims the right to combat the State, if the
State attempts to tax the church, to inspect

All true Americans would do we'll to
remember this bold admission of typical
Catholic like Father Phelan.
(0) My question about the allegiance to
the foreign potentate IS d0dged. Yet, it is a
most vital question.
Phelan says that the Protestants are hoys

MIR. Bryan Using His Office 10
Put Money I'm His Pocket.


IF being Secretary of State does not add
another million dollars to Bryan's pile. and
enable him to build few more palaces, it
will not be his fault.
No delicate backWardness binders him at
all. His lectures have a higher value because
OF his official position: hence. he hastens to
sell them to a newspaper syndicate; announc-
ing, at the same time, that he will deliver
these lectures IN person, as often as he can
snatch himself away from Washington
But the most disgusting revelation of his
willingness to use his office to fill his pocket,
is furnished by Bryan in his own paper
where he begs for subscrip tions, on the
ground that his position, as a member of the
Cabinet, will enable him to make The Conn.,
na072er the official organ of the Government
1t IS true that he does not use the words.
Official organ" but that is what he means.
Commenting on this the New York Su7a
says:
The old Commoner, the money-maker for Mr..
William j. Bryan, has been changed by him from
a weekly to a monthly publication. In commend
Ing his magazine to Democrats everywhere for
the sake of their dollars the editor and proprietor
OF the Commoner reminds them that he is now
the Secretary of State in President Wilson's Cab
met and therefore in a position to know what is
going on in the inner circles of the Federal Ad-
""|AOAA
and domestic affairs. He also announces that the
Commoner may be regarded the official organ
OF the United States Government; price only one
dollar year, or seventy-fve cents to clubs of
five or more
In order that there may be no doubt in anv
mind OF the extent to which Mr. Bryan is will
ing to work his high official position at Washing
ton for the repletion of the money drawer at
Lincoln, Nebraska, print extracts, hitherto
not considered, from the appeal for subscribers
which the Secretary of State makes, over his own
signature, in the number of the Commoner that
has just reached this office:
LAS an incident to the Democratic victory I
have been invited to become a member of the
Presidents official family, and, as his represent
atlve in one of the departments of the Govern
ment, am brought into contact with international
problems
GAS member of the Cabinet too I enjoy
the opportunity of participating in the discussion
of such problems the President sees fit to
bring before that body.
AS an exponent Of the plans and purposes of
the Administration the Commoner can accomplish
even more as a monthly than it could as weekly
Administrative and legislative plans develop
gradually, and there is no need of haste in meet
ing the criticisms that may be directed against
the programme of the party in authority
The Commoner will be able to present to it's
individual readers, and through it's multitude of
exchanges to a still larger audience the Govern
ments side of the questions under discussion

New Ulm review., 1913-07-23

Considerable feeling was generated
IN. St. James when the mayor and
council refused the use of the park
FOR a union meeting, at which a
speaker representing the Anti-Saloon
League was to deliver an address,.
We. believe in free speech without
any ifs and ands, and in our opinion
the, city officials made serious mis-
take in refusing the city park for
speech making purposes. We could
not help wondering however, while
reading the resolutions of protest
in. one of our exchanges, how many
sf those who signed them and are
dpfering their heads off because of
Tie. unfair treatment accorded them
st the hands of the city officials,
would be brotherly enough to allow
the saloon crowd or any other who
held views diametrically opposed to
their own, to use the park for a
demonstration and speech making if
ahey had it in their power to grant
Or refuse the privilege. So long as
shey would not be willing to do that,
they should quit hollering.

Welcoming the Boys Home.

It is little wonder that the young
men of the city become enamored of
the soldiers uniform when they see the
reception that New Ulm accords to her
returning heroes. There is something
inspiring and fascinating in the cheers
of the crowd, the sound of the martial
music and the glare of illumination
with its choking smoke that appeals
to the general run of boy and makes
him want to go out and fight for his
home and country even if he never has
to 20 farther than to Lake City for a
ten days encampment. And the stay
at-homes are just as much stirred by
the same feeling and when the boys
come home a goodly share Of the city's
population is congregated along Min
uesota Street to see that the proper
spirit of welcome is in evidence.
The Co. "A' boys, Capt. Hotflneis-
ter and his gallant musicians and the
fierce Machine Gun men have nothing
to complain of so far as warmth OF
welcome on their return from Lake
City is concerned. At noon Wednes-
day it was rumored that the boys
would be home about o'clock as it
was expected that they would make the
last few miles afoot. They came on q
special from Lake City but we're de-
layed for parade at Mankato and
the patient, notwithstanding, loyal
home people waited until nearly mid
night before the blare of trumpets was
heard and the first red fire was lighted
at the south end of Minnesota Street.
Fesenmeier's Band went to the sta
ton to meet the soldiers and escorted
them up to the center of town where
they marched north along Minnesota
Street between rows of red fire, in the
thick smoke OF welcome, each division
receiving its share of we'll earned plau.
dts. Walter Backer came back with
his old comrades as drum MAJ jor since
Arthur HUM was unable to 60 with
them After a supper for the Machine
Gun Company at Turner Hall every
one turned in feeling satisfied and con-
tent that the military men were safely
back home again.

PHILOSOPHY OF THE TALLER
Remarks Wise and Otherwise That
Have Bearing on Life az
Generality.

Lovers may be divided into two
classes, amateurs and professionals;
and loving is one of the few things
the amateurs do better than the pro-
fessionals.
A woman will sometimes forgive a
man for stealing kiss from her, but
she will never forgive him IL he
fails to return one she has given him
Of her own free will.
A woman who takes the downward
path gets more attention than her
sister because there are SO many
more men going her way.
Some men fall for want OF woman
and others through wants Of a
woman.
We believe almost anyone who tells
US that were right, but no one
but ourselves can convince us that
we are wrong.
Some girls make themselves out to
be greater fools than they are by pre-
tending to have refused chances
they've never had
Human beings love warning other
