had spent millions of dollars and the
states had spent large sums on these
waterways, he replied that the Panama
Canal was a worldwide enterprise, while
the others were domestic waterways.
Mr.. outerbridge distinguished between
marine rates and railroad rates. He
said that steamships charged all the
traffic would bear, and that the exemp-
tion Of tolls would not figure in the
making of freight rates. He told the
committee he was apprehensive of the
effect the Panama Canal opening would
have on railroads. He declared that the
railroads were the greatest purchasing
power in the country, next to the agri-
cultural interests, and when their pros
perity was interfered with. resulting In
their having to curtaiI expenditures, a
depressing effect on business Immediately
followed.
The trouble with the business situa-
ton now is that the railroads cannot
spend as much money as they have been
spending heretofore" 1
Railroads Fear Losses.
Senator Walsh asked Mr.. Outerbridge
il the railroads of the country were con-
cerned over the opening of the Panama
Canal, and the witness replied he had
talked with many roailroad presidents
who had anticipated loss OF tonnage as
a result of the opening OF the canal,
whether freight rates were reduced or
not. He expressed the opinion that the
Canadian railroads would suffer less than
the railroads of the United States, be-
cause the Canadian government had a
financial interest in she roads and would
protect them by subsidies and would
help them to build up local traffic that
would compensate for the loss IN the
transcontinental hauls

| severity Of His terms. 1t is of great i'm
portance that we should carefully consid-
\ er the real meaning of the paragraph
| which follows the first declaration of
| the terms of discipleship. This We shall
| be helped to do by noticing significant
| change in the Revised Version in verse
g. In the Authorized Version the read
| ing was. SO likewise whosoever he be of
! you" II is now. SO therefore whosoever
| he be Of you. Without entering into
] any discussion of the reason OF the
change. suffice 1t to say that there can
| be no question as to its accuracy. II will
| at once be recognized that what appears
to be a very slight change. radically al
| ters the meaning OF the passage. That
radical alteration may be summarized
| thus. The old form suggested that our
Lord was insisting upon it that those who
would follow Him. must count the cost.
As they would count the cost, were they
going to build a tower or conduct war
fare. so must they count the cost. II they
would follow Him. That is the interpre-
tation which almost necessarily would be
put upon the passage II after the two fig
ures of building and battle He said, so
likewies.
Now as a matter Of fact the terms of
discipIeship first named indicate exactly
the reverse idea. Men must follow Him
low Him, whatever the cost may be. Hav-
ing said this He proceeded to show why
the terms were thus severe. The builder
Of the tower is not the disciple but the
Lord. The King who goes to war Is not
the disciple but his Master. Hence II Is
He that is compelled to count the cost.
and to take counsel. He can only do His
building and conduct His campaign with
and through workers and soldiers upon
whom He can absolutely depend. Thus
He says Therefore whosoever he be of
you that renounccth not all that he hath
cannot be Ny disciple" because I have
these high enterprises to carry out of
construction and destruction. OF building.
Of battle. Changing the form Of His fig
urc, He then re-emphasiZed the necessity
for quality in discipIeship. Salt is good.
but if it have lost its SAVIOUR 1t is useless.
The TeachInE.
The first fact that impresses the mind
in the reading of this lesson is that OF
the severity of our Lords claims. He
drew the multitudes after Him irresist- |
IDLY. That is the first note here. Leaving |
the house of the ruler. the multitudes
focked after Him. But this other fact Is
the supreme one in our story. He VINO |
thus drew the multitudes, paused and
halted them. and sifted them. and seemed
to make il difficult for them to come after
Him.
Notice yet more carefully the severity
of His terms. These terms were revealed
in the first things He said. He who would
be the disciple OF this Lord Christ must
renounce all the tenderest human ties.
and even life itself. in so far as any OF
these things arc likely to interfere In any
way with absolute. unqualified loyalty.
Yet again. he who would be His disciple /
must bear his own cross. and go after
Him-that is. he must renounce his ease
and his own rights In the interests OF '

THE LATEST IN PHOTOPLAYS

run with most observers in its show
ing of the success of a young man in
rising from degrading conditions to
an honorable life and a happy mar
riage. 1t begins with his break with
his old card sharp partner on emerg-
ing from the prison sentence to which
their sins had brought them, with
the declaration that from then on he
is going to go straight"
He begins making his living hon
estly as secretary to a Colonel Breese
who is possessed of a lovely daughter
and a spirited son, inclined to be
wild. Harris tries to influence the
son from his inclinations, while fall
ing under the spell of the daughter,
a fall that is mutual. His triumphant
climax comes in a ship voyage when
he saves the son from the clutches of
a card sharp, none other than his
FORMER partner, masquerading as d
former nobleman.
The son is deeply grateful for his
aid and when the family hears of his
past life, instead of scorning him.
commends him for his strength and
the girl and he arrange to live hap
PLY ever after.
