WOULD HAVE SUNDAYS DULL
British Member of Parliament Sees
Mistake in Nonobservance of
the Sabbath.

II think Sunday ought to remain
what some people call 'dull,'" said ].
Ramsay Macdonald, OIL. P, speaking
at Leicester. He appealed to religious
institutions to see that Sunday is not
secularize6 People talked lot of
nonsense about the Scottish Sabbath,
and did not know what they were
talking about If they were only
trained to appreciate the Scottish Sab
bath-it would take some amount of
training-they would not be sorry II
they had it.
All the talk about turning Sunday
into a day Of recreation was humbug
and dangerous. In trying to do 1t
they were beginning at the wrong end
of the stick. They should not sacri-
fee the blessings they had got.
He looked forward to the time when
everybody would have sufficient time
for recreation during the secular days
of the week. An enlightened demo-
cracy should value day of spiritual
rest so much that their hands would
be lifted up against any man or move
ment that desired to secularize the
Sunday.-London Chronicle.

Of the referee board that the state
banking department has no discretion
in the matter, Commissioner of Bank
ing A. e. Kuolt has approved articles
of incorporation for the Farmers State
bank of Mosinee, Marathon county
Commissioner Kuolt first denied the
charter on the ground that the village
was already adequately supplied with
banking facilities and that certain pro.
motors of the new bank have business
records which warranted him in going
slow in approving their application.
The board of review decided that the
law is unconstitutional. The commits
sioner declared that the board is not
a court, and it should have upheld his
decision on the showing of facts made
by him.

MAKES CRAB IN LABORATORY
Scientist Says He Has Also Produced
Fish From Minerals-AIi
Very Small.

Dr. Charles w. Littlefield, speaking
before the New Thought convention
here, declared that organic life can be
produced from chemicals, and showed
a picture of live crab he had made
himself to prove it-only the crab was
of the minutest variety.
He declared that he had frequently
produced crabs, CLANS, fish and the
like from minerals, all, however, Of in
finitesimal caliber. Facetiously, he
said that any time he wanted a crab
for breakfast he would go into his lab
oratory and make one.
T make no claim to having done
anything wonderful. Il have simply
discovered the beginning and way OF
life. Remember that matter and en-
ergy only will operate according to it's
nature. Whatever matter may be it is
the creation of Almighty God. Matter
is just as divine as spirit. There is nc
expression of energy except through
matter."-Portland Oregonian-
