200 Lives May Have
Been Lost in the
lake Huron Disaster
THIRTY DIE ON sUPERIoR-EACh
HOUR ADDS TO TOLL OF DAM.
AGE AND DEATH ENACTED
BY TERRIFIC STORM.

Port Huron, Mich, Nov. 14.-Each
hour has added to the total Of dis
asters on Lake Huron during Sun
days storm, and tonight the end is
not yet in sight. The bodies of sail
ors of five and perhaps six vessels
have been found on the shore Of the
lake.
Wreckage from two other boats has
been cast up by the waves and no
trace can be found of two vessels or
their crews totalling over 40 men,
Never in the history of Michigan's
maritime existence has Lake Huron
been the scene of such a succession
of catastrophes. Conservative esti-
mates of the loss of life fix the total
at least $50. The damage to vessels
will be several millions.
Lying in morgues along the Cana
dian shore are bodies of sailors Of
the steamers James Carruthers, Re-
gina, John A. Mclean, Wexford, and
Charles S. Price. It is practically
certain those vessels went down with
all on board.
Also a number of bodies are uni
Identified. Perhaps these are sailors
of the unidentified freighter which
floats bottom side up in Lake Huron,
Is miles north. Many think she is
the Regina, while others think she
colided with the Regina and the lat
ter sank.
The most appalling among today's
tragedies is the confirmation of the
loss of the steamer John A. Mclean,
a 432-foot freighter. Twenty.eight
bodies of her crew were washed
ashore.

TURN BACKWARD, Oh TIME.

Backward, turn backward, oh Time
in your flight,
Give us girl, whose charms, many
or few
Are not exposed by so much peek

Give us girl no matter what age,
Who won't use the street for a vau-
deville stage;
Give use girl not too sharply in view
And dress her in skirts the sun can't
shine through;
And give us the dances of the days
gone by,
With plent y of clothes, and steps not
so high;
Put turkey trot capers and New
Porter's slides,
Hurdy-gurdy twists and woody bear
glides,
And other such bunny hugs all on a
level,
AS products of someone inspired by
the devil.
And then let us feast our shamed op-
tics once more
On the pure, sweet woman of the
days of yore.
Yes, Time, turn backward and grant
our request,
For Gods richest blessings-but not
undressed.

1.-The Spirit We Are
OF" Sermon From
N. f. Pulpit
TEXT LUKE o-55. "YE KNOW NOT
WHAT SPIRIT YE ARE Off,
WHO IS RESPONSIBLE?
(Rev. c. E. Vermilya.)

AS l thought of this whole question
of intemperance during the past weel
these words came to me with new
meaning.
These disciples would have commit
ted deed that was wrong, had they
had their way. This however was
not all there was in it. Behind this
suggestion was spirit, of which they
were not conscious, and to which they
were allied. Jesus did not refer to
the individual impulse to do this
thing. He was speaking of spirit
that is the same in the case of all NOR
al failures. Jesus virtually said,
There is kind of spirit in men or in
the world, out of which sin and failure
are born, and your asking for this
thing indicates that We belong to that
spirit whether you know it or not.
TO wipe out this village and its citi-
zens with one fell stroke might be
done quickly and forgotten soon so
far as the world is concerned, but to
foster and become a part, of such a
spirit, or to let it become a part of
YOU, is to join yourselves with a force,
that will not soon be forgotten nor
soon stopped.
There is bad spirit behind this
thing and the spirit is more significant
than this particular deed" With this
thought in mind is it not fair ques.
ton to ask whether the significant
thing is in humanity's failures and
spirit behind them, and also whether
the spirit behind the liquor business is
not one and the same that is behind
every form of human failure?
Is it not possible this morning that
the solution to the problem of intern.
perance and brewers aggressiveness,
is the same as the solution to every,
other shortcoming? Is there not one
common kind of spirit to which all
these failures can be ascribed, and to
the Strengthening of which, more are
contributing than those who are Civ
ing their time to this particular bust
ness or indulging in its products? Can
we not say to men and women in gen.
era1, who are lax in that which they
exact from themselves morally, "Ye
know not what spirit We are of"
Know We not that we are of the same
spirit that is behind the liquor bust
ness of this country, which seems SO
much more deplorable than many 9TH
er sins? 80. ... ~
feel, friends, that il we think our
problem through we shall realize that
there is to be found in the lives of
many of us the general type of spirit
that the liquor men are of, and we like
the disciples have never thought of it
in this way.
1t is a pretty easy matter to work
The weekly times-record. (Valley City, N.D.) 1912-1922, 1913-11-20

I'D quite a case against the brewer
the blind pigger and the drinker. Sc
| foul is the whole business, and so de-
! structive of all that is good, that we
soon rave with righteous and fire.
quently with diabolical indignation
| Few material and social sins Of men
stir mans soul as does this business.
1t is not strange that the men in the
business have been the target Of our
endeavors, and if there are any who
deserve rebuke and even punishment
they 40. Notwithstanding this, friends,
the thing that keeps alive the liquor
business is something more than the
individual men and their deeds. 1t is
spirit, way of thinking and OF liv-
ing, and it is a spirit that many are
keeping alive in the world with no
thought that they have the least thing
to do with this hazardous business.
They do it because they know not the
spirit they are of.
The brewers OF our land with their
bartenders and blind piggers do not
plan to make drunkards because they
love to see men drunk and ruined.
They do it because of the love of
money, of luxury and of ease. 1t is the
spirit they are of that keeps them go
ing.
The man who imbibes the habit Of
drink and gives himself up to general
debauchery does not do it because he
finds pleasure in seeing his family
suffer, and himself incapacitated. 1t
is all done because of a spirit that
base been developed within himself
or his ancestors. In himself or in
those who have brought him into this
world there has been a spirit that was
lax in what it exacted of itself,
spirit that insisted on following its
strongest impulses, and allowed the
of the natural into an
unnatural appetite.
Behind the drunKard is a spirit to
which he responds. Whether it be the
drunkard Or whether it be the brewer,
it is the spirit that wants to do as it
pleases regardless of the rightness or
the wrongness Of it, that accounts for
it all in the last analysis.
Whatever else we may select out as
being vital in our effort to down the |
liquor forces and redeem humanity I
from its influence, this spirit is one
and the most vital factor in the whole |
situation. The liquor business is only !
an outlet for the spirit which these
men are Of, and before the business
will ever be downed this spirit must !
be overcome in men.
When We begin to tackle this spirit |
with little consistency we will see
that it is about the same kind of spirit |
that any man is of who recognizes and
obeys no high moral laws in relation
to some of the things he desires to do |
in life. ...
The liquor business may be and is
a little more disgraceful and debasing !
than other forms of sin and conse- !
quently gives rise to the greater re-
pugnance in the souls of some,
but still it is of the same |
source as great many other |
things which run under the COW
er OF responsibility. Any man and
any woman who takes advantage of |
