The Guest of the soul.

George ID. Heron, in Metropolitan.
The unsatisfied quest of the soul is
the secret and sorrow of history; it is
also its joy and romance. Man wants
breathing room that he has never
had. Occasional windows have been
raised, with vistas of far and fair
countries, and breaths of brave morn
ings. Doors have opened into green
gardens, full of the souls song and
laughter. A man, now and then, or a
group of men, has gone out into the
great open spaces, far beyond the
familiar heath, beyond the souls an
cestral hearthstones; has stood upon
the high hills, among the sweet winds,
stripped Of letters and fears. But
these are monetary phases of the
races spiritual progress. The pio-
neers have been done to death, or
have persisted desolately. The peoples
who hailed the vaster faith, the
fraught adventure, have been driven
back into the hard walls and the mar
row chambers. The windows were
shut down, the doors closed and
barred. Afraid of the far quest of
the wind and the sun and the rain,
of the high hills and the souls fresh
pastures, of the utter truth, of the
possible face of God, the peoples have
returned to the folds of their mas
ters to the taper-lit temples, to the
incense laden air to the souls pol
luting Incidence and seryitude. Then
are the temples as burrows wherein
the souls of men are hunted rabbits.
And thus the real recoverers of
truth, the real redeemers and reveal |
ers. have ever come as revolutionists, |
denouncing the temples. and declar- |
ing that God dwelleth in the fellow
ships of men in the vast spaces with |
In the soul. in sunrise and field flow
ers and little children.

the Republican party could select for
it's standard bearer this year.
Mr.. Groesbeck had charge of party
affairs in this state at a time when
the Republican party was In the
most precarious condition 1t ever ex-
perienced since its foundation in
Michigan. When he took the chair
manship the party was split and the
various factions were at loggerheads.
His diplomacy. generalship and
craftsmanship enabled him to gather
together the various pieces out OF
last elections wreck and rebuild q
united party.
Shrewd, resourceful, energetic, he
has the qualities of the most astute
politician to back the forcefulness
of the strongest of personalities.
He's the one man who can bring the
Republican party back next year II
1t can ever be brought back. Mr..
Groesbeek's progressiveism is sane.
His conservatism is not reactionary.
In this section Of the county Mr..
Groesbeck is assured of considerable
support at the primaries. AS one

way. he made acquaintances here
who will support him.

ter, In the resurrection.
These are to live to the LOrd-to do
His will and not their own, to serve
Him and not self, to lay down their
lives in fighting against sin. When
these die, they die unto the Lord
In the sense that every member of the
Body OF Christ must die to the flesh
before the entire Body can be glorified
The Apostle proceeds to show that
all judgment is vested in the Redeem,
er. Each member Of the Church must
ultimately stand the inspection of the
Head of the Church. Loyalty to the
Head Of the Church will eventually
bring membership in the glorious
Church beyond the veil.
Let Us, Then, Judge Ourselves.
The Apostles argument is, that in
stead Of judging fellow-members of
the consecrated Body Of Christ, we
should be full Of sympathy for them.
We do not know thoroughly their tri
ais and difficulties. Our keen sense Of
justice should find its principal exer-
ness not to do anything that would
stumble a brother or discourage him
or cause him to fall away from the
faith.
How many find 1t easy to excuse
self, while they are very critical re
speeding others shortcomings! Our
Lord warned His people against such
an attitude, saying. with what judg-
ment We Judge, We shall be judged.
II you are hypercritical and wish to
measure others up to the full standard
Of perfection, the Lord will properly
measure you by that high standard.
The Lord does not wish His people
to think lightly Of weaknesses and fail
ures. He is, on the contrary, setting a
high standard of love, sympathy and
kindness. Love is the principal thing.
in Gods sight
"Nothing UncIean Of ITSELF"
While the Jew was forbidden the use
Of swine, rabbits, oysters, etc., these
restrictions were tests of his obedience
to God; just as the forbidden fruit was
thereafter unclean to Adam and Eve
The Apostles argument is that to the
Jew who died to all hope Of attaining
eternal life through the Law Covenant
and who became united to Christ, the
restrictions of the Law Covenant
would no longer be binding. And, Of
course, to the Gentle, who never was
under the Law Covenant, its restric-
lions would have no application when
he accepted Christ.
But If any mans reasoning faculties
were so twisted that he thought him

Few person, on first thought
would see any possible connection
between good roads and good health.
Yet the State Board of Health OF
Kansas says that good roads can and
will prevent disease. How? BY the
removal Of weeds and trash. Weeds
and trash prevent the prompt evap-
grafton of moisture and prompt re-
tention of ground water. This
makes ideal breeding spots for mo-
squitoes, flies and other insects,
which are known as disease carriers,
not to mention chinch bugs. hoppers
and other insects which are crop
damagers. Furthermore, an under
growth Of weeds invites the dump
ing of garbage and manure by offer
ing concealment, of which fact care
less and thoughtless people are
prone to take advantage, thus in
creasing the facility of insect breed
ing and providing these insect car
riers with proper material for dis
ease transmission. Good roads also
prevent disease by providing good
drainage. Many farms have no
means of drainage except by bitches
jalong rosdways. Open bitches, clear
{, of brush and debris, with hardened
surface and proper fall afford these
farms the opportunity of Kidding
themselves of many-SfarDant

Good roads promote travel and set
an example to the farmer whose

comparison of well-graded. clean
highway with an unkempt and trashy
barnyard adjoining is sufficient to
stimulate every landowner to
cleanup. Pride compels him to
offer TO passers-by a neat-appearing
and attractive house and barnyard.
Results are only too obvious. Good
roads are active disease prevention
agencies, aside from their financial
and commercial value.
