an Sorts II Op;sisss
The War an Miasiens,

It is too soon to estimate the effects
Of the European war on missionary
work, but some Of the Immediate re-
suits are already apparent to writer's
in the periodicals devoted to missions.
They note that the resources avail
able for missionary effort in men and
money are being sacrificed In war
Even more serious than the material
losses they consider the impeachment
Of moral interests. The spiritual tone
of our civilization must suffer, writes
j. H. Oldham in The international Re-
view OF Missions (Edinburgh) which
he edits, for ut is difficult to engage
in so unchristian a business as killing
other men. even though 1t be for the
sake of Just cause, without becoming
the worse for it, and "the wild pas
sions that have been aroused will leave
their aftermath of blunted sensibilities
and embittered feeling" And one OF. the
saddest results OF the war. as this edi-
tor sees 1t, rs that it will make CO.
operation In service between the chris
tians Of different nations immeasur-
ably more difficult" The war. admits
this English editor, may be just, but Is
not necessary, patriotic, from the view
point Of those engaged in 1t. yet he can
call the scenes OF the past two months
nothing but IAN abomlnation In the
sight of God" proof Of the refusal
Of the christian nations to be ruled
by the law OF Christ" Like characteri-
cations come from the editor OF an
important missionary organ in this
country. The Missionary Review OF
the World. But he goes on to outline
certain specific hindrances to mis-
sionary work.
First: The attention OF men and
women In Europe and America will be
diverted from missionary effort to fol-
low the fortunes Of the armies and
navies In the present disturbed state
Of the world men will devote their at
tention, even as much as formerly, to
spiritual work.
Second: Money will be difficult to
obtain for home and foreign missions.
The high prices. taxes. absence OF
wage -earners. depression Of business
and many calls to relieve distress Will
cause such financial stringency that
the work OF Christ faces serious
crisis. Deficits, retrenchments. and un-
met needs stare the mission boards In
the face.

CUTTING "ealesBY.s CORNERS FOLKS.

The Des Moines Capital has cut off
all exchanges. When it wishes to see
another newspaper Oh !ts desk it Will
subscribe for it. When other news
papers want the Capital they must pay
for it.
If the exchange list is to be MADE
a purely business proposition and
handled entirely thru the counting
room the Capital is entirely consistent
in taking the step. The exchange list
of daily paper with a wide circula-
ton runs into cost of thousands OF
dollars. But TO put the exchange list
unon a purely cash basis will suggest
to many of the weekly newspapers
that the counting room prevails from
| the basement TO the roof
The Capital has grown from weak
newspaper to a strong one financially.
No doubt it has come to the place
where it can stand alone. 1t has cut
out sentiment and having its own new
wheelbarrow proposes neither to Dor
row nor to lend That's business in
the counting room definition of bust
ness.
Most newspapers find it hard to get
entirely away from sentiment as re-
CARDS the exchange list. Most Of the
dailies of this state have passed thru
the period of struggle and recall hard
times when the kindly spirit OF the
Iowa weekly press boosted for them
without moray and without price ex-
cept the daily exchange which paid in
courtesy the whole bill. This fact Is
especially true Of the Capital. No
newspaper in Iowa has been better
treated by the weekly press Of the
state tsan the Capital and LATE. The
system is not likely to meet general
adoption by the Iowa daily newspapers.
1t is too much like cutting the &C
quaintances back at Grigsby's Corners
where we were once all 80 happy and
so pore"

IOWA As A TEXT.

Next Sunday many ministers in
many parts of the state viii serminize
with a greater Iowa as their text.
These, should be good sermons of the
kind that keep congregations awake,
and send them home thinking.
There is much that minister can
say for a greater Iowa, greater in ma
terial prosperity and charity and the
growth Of the virtues.
Sodom and Gomorrah have been H.
Illustrations of lost and wicked peo-
pie, of grossness and crime and ire
ligion. Why not sermon on COM
monwealth rich not only in the mater
ial things but fertile Of charity and re-
ligon and ripening 10 the needs of all
men and the common welfare?
Iowa is a great state in more than
her fruitful farms and the products OF
her hands. She stands pre-eminent as
a clean. progressive state in politics
and religion. Her growth has been a
christian growth. Year by year she
has accepted the added responsibility
that comes with material success. Her
people are a clean minded, right think
ing people. Her cities cleaner cities
than those Of most other states. She
is big and strong and kind and clean.
Preach about her. Review the splen-
did progress of Iowa since but few
years ago the first pioneers pushed
thru the prairie grass TO found new
stae. Forecast her future. We live IN
Iowa and today as our children shall
live in Iowa tomorrow. What text could
be more timely than that about which
the speaker shall weave history and
prophecy next sunday

WHEN GOOD FELLOWS GET TOGETHER.

II is a good story that of the Ger
man sergeant major in charge Of a
group of captured Frenchmen. The
sergeant had been a professor of
languages in German university.
The lieutenant in command saw to his
astonishment his sergeant and a pris-
oner apparently upon the verge Of a
personal encounter and hurried down
to stop the row. 1t turned out that
the French prisoner had been pro-
lessor Of languages at the university OF
the Sorbonne in France and tina. the
war had been forgotten in an argu-
ment over the wording Of a folk song.
The two professors were az It forget

tive and captor.

"smashins kaissrism."
TDr. Salter.1

MANY newspapers and many SOCIAL
lists are saying that the success OF
the allies IN the war means the smash
ing of kaiserism In Germany. Only the
German people themselves can smash
kaisersm in Germany, and II they had
been left alone they would have done
II inside the next ten years. But II
the allies are to smash kaisertsm they
can only do 1t by smashing the Ger
man people first. May God prevent
that crime! For the German soldiers
are just plain folks. the very same as
our Bermondsey working folk, with
the same hopes, the same fears. the
same weaknesses. the same virtues,
the same passions. the same sorrows.
the same humanity as ours God made
the Germans, and made them in his
own Image, as well as the British and
the French, and we dare not do despite
! to that divine image In any human
creature.
yet English and Germans, Aus
TRANS and Russians are praying to the
same God, praying to be enabled to
defeat one another. Every nation Is
deliberately putting its trust in tho
power OF material force. and yet pre-
| tending to itself that II is trusting in
the power OF the Divine Spirit. fancy
God will take those prayers at the
right valuation.
