Fashioning Every Soul
From New Material
Wouldn't Be Fair.

II you have been educated on
traditional lines, you are thinking
that the Creator Of this vast uni
verse makes each soul from new
material and sends It to quicken
the unborn child at a certain pc
riod.
If you think anything at all
about the matter beyond that, you
must wonder why one OF these
God made souls is sent into a
palace, another into the slums.
If you decide that some are
made to suffer and be poor and
unfortunate on earth. in order
that they shall shine above their
affluent brothers after they go to
Heaven, then you must think the
Creator a very partial and unjust
being, or He would not show such
favoritism.
Any way you reason it out you
will find the whole matter incom
patible with justice unless you
accept the idea of reincarnation.
Briefly told, the idea is that the
Great Power which made the uni
verse has always existed and will
always exist. And all that exists
has always existed, and every
soul that animates the body Of
any human being to-day has ami
mated the bodies Of innumerable
beings over and over again.
1t is, Of course, a very vast
thought. But the idea is not one
whit more difficult to grasp than
the modern one, that each soul is
made out Of new material and
that the beginning Of life was a
few thousand years ago. 1t is
easier to imagine a circle with
out beginning and without end
than straight line which begins
uoWh here.
The creative power is so vast
that it is almost unthinkable. But
we have to accept that as fact
And it is so magnificent and
stupendous fact that it thrills

You Have the Power to
Mold Your Destiny
for Next Coming.

But you have made your own
destiny.
And now you possess the power
to change that destiny.
You can change it to q won
derful degree, here and now; and
you can build glorious destiny
for your next coming.
1t is possible that your next
life will be spent on some other
planet; but wherever you go, the
character you are now making
will shape your destiny. Besides
this, there are intervening "heav-
ems and "heIls," through which
we must pass and in which we
must dwell, according to our de-
serts, and each thought and act OF
your life here is determining
what your experiences in those
planes of existence win be.
Modern creeds have taught the
selfish, mercenary and self-indul-
gent woman that when she dies.
asking God to forgive her sins,
she viii Immediately join the
spirit of her lovely child who
passed away in early youth.
But such woman has not
made such a. reunion possible. She
will have to earn her admission
before she will be admitted to
the realm where her child dwells.
Those who think hate and envy
and malice, those who live Who'll
ly and only for the enjoyment OF
the senses, must seek their own
kind in the intervening realms.
Spiritual birds OF a feather
flock together, as we'll as the
earth lirds.
This consciousness should act
as a mighty stimulus to persist
ent and patient efforts at self
conquest and self-development;
conquest of the unworthy and
weak and indolent impulses; de-
velopment OF the worthy and
strong and aspiring side of our
natures.
For every such effort means a
step forward toward realization
OF our ideal and its absolute at
talnment, either here or else
where.

Editor The Georgian
The greatest calamity that
could befall this country would
be the repeal Of free tolls, for the
reason given by the President.
This lis true. because repeal for
that reason. commits the United
States to a deliberate interpret3-
ton of the treaty on one point,
and that Interpretation would be
turned disastrously against us on
other and more important points.
There is but one step between
the United states and endless

repeal for the reason urged by
the President Defeat of Mr.
Wilson's bin is of supreme inn

Congress could Immediately
after it's defeat pass a repeal bill
and allege as a reason that the
canal was going to be operated at
p. loss of ten million dollars
year. and that the question of
free tolls should be left 10 the
American people, after they had

BILE living, though you may die
before you attain your aim, still
you have laid the spiritual foun-
dalton for a better fortune and a
better body in the next incarna-
ton.
IL you have longed for educa-
ton and accomplishment, if you
have struggled to obtain them,
every effort you make will be
placed to your credit when you
come again.
IF you have beauty, talent,
wealth and are not making good
use of them-use which will ben
eft others and leave the race bet
ter off for your having lived-then
you will be obliged to return
without beauty, without talent,
without wealth, and work your
way back to divine favor.
This great law of cause and eff
feet is called karma.
We are all making good or bad
karma every hour
The fair working girl who is
turning away from the tempta-
ton to wear fine apparel at the
cost of her self-respect, and who
is seeing herself grow faded and
careworn while she tolls to sup
port an old mother or a little SIS
ter, is called good karma. She is
preparing a beautiful body and
fair raiment and a happy environ
ment for herself in the next incar-
nation.
The companion who laughs at
her while she drives by in her
protectors motor car is making
bad karma. She is preparing an
ugly or deformed body for herself

which will not be attractive to

In the course of cons Of tins
we have occupied many bodies
