For those who prefer something
more classical. the Washburn quartet

of the duty of his office.
Hugh MacFarland, probate judge,
is serving his first term and probably
will not have Republican opposition.
Oscar Swayze, county clerk, is in a
similar situation. Charles w. Bower,
clerk of the district court, served a
few months on appointment and then
was elected to a first term. He is eX-
pected to be a candidate for re-elec-
ton. He probably will not have any
trouble.
w. E. Atchison, county attorney, is
not expected to have opposition from
the Democratic side. and nobody
knows whether a Republican will care
to offer himself to the sacrifice or
not. Atchison also is making good,
and it is believed will be hard man
to beat in another election.
OF course it is too early yet to give
anything like an actual prediction for
the campaign. But it has all the ap-
pearances, with so many one-terIn
men in office, of being decidedly quiet,
with little or no fireworks and little
excitement, and the prospect that

Topeka has 72 churches and saloon.
How would you like to see that reversed?
Would the Commercial club, the real estate men
and others then put their correspondence "To-
peka the beautiful, city with 72 saloons and no
churches?"
How much would that kind of an advertisement
boost city?
What effect would it have real estate values?
Would railroads wishing to enlarge Topeka traf-
fic give wide publicity to changed municipal
program?
What impression would that "churchless city" ad-
vertisement have on the mind of a manufacturer
considering Topeka as a possible location?
Do you think changing our churches into saloons
might cause some good people to change their place
of residence?
If that 'no-church" announcement brought others
would they be people likely to raise the level of
citizenship?
SOME CRITICIZE THE CHURCHES because
they not doing more for society," to curb

wont to expect too much, forgetting that these

The Topeka state journal., 1913-04-19

Of course, the churches, like many other organza-
tions of high IDEALS frequently fail to accomplish all
they might. But READ THIS and give credit where
credit belongs:
The church is helping the fortunate to rec
ognize the obligation to administer their estate for
the benefit of all. And the church is doing
nous amount of worthwhile charity.
Every great philanthropic movement which is
scientifically helping the poor of country is prac
tically supported and managed by the members of
the churches Over 80 per cent of all associated
charity workers are church members. Over 70 per
cent of all general social betterment workers
members of the church. Last year, the churches of
New York City alone gave over $3,OO000O to char
table and social betterment work.
THE GREAT WORK OF THE CHURCH is, of
course moral and spiritual Give boy character
and he will buy his coat The soul of all i'm
provement is the improvement of the SOUL DR..
Henry Churchill King says, "Self-control depends
upon attention. and attention has its chief support in
strong and many sided interest. This means that
the great secret of all successful living is PER
SISTENT STAYING IN THE PRESENCE OF THE
BEST" The church helps to hold in the pres
of the great facts the great truths the great
personalities, the one great Person, Christ.
Attend church service tomorrow. Whether the
preacher exposes sin exats the ideal you will be
better prepared for the weeks hustle and business
than if you had spent the day of crest and worship"
